Where to find cheap PlayStation 3 and games? Help!

Hi, I am wanting to buy my bf a ps3 but wondering where is the best place to buy it? And any suggestions for good games that he might like would be great. He hasn't had a console for a really long time, but liked starcraft and those sort of games on the PC.

Thanks for any help :)

    There is no console game which is anything like Starcraft. Increasingly console style games are now available on PC and it is easy to just connect a controller, but PC only games (Starcraft and similar) have never worked well on consoles.

    The sorts of games that work well on consoles are:

    • Sports (FIFA)
    • Racing (GT5 - Serious, Need For Speed - Not serious)
    • Fighting (Mortal Combat Vs DC)
    • 3rd person action* (Uncharted)

    I've included something that might be suitable for each in brackets.

    *This is a confusion category, but that is the best title I have.

  • You could buy a second hand console from some of the game stores and ask for a selection of second hand games. That would probably be the cheapest and you would also get a short warranty with it. They would have to be cheap though because a new PS3 is only about $250.
