Shin-Ra · 04-07-2008, 05:05 PM

Engadget with the English details. They don't know if it's packed with a DS3 yet.

The U.S. isn't getting that bundle.

European prices are crazy. Sheesh. Should sell to the extent its limited.

I'm not so sure Sony would want to put up with the headache that officially releasing that bundle stateside would bring...

Rapstah · 04-07-2008, 05:51 PM

I wonder what this indicates about the game. Is there going to be a similar 360 bundle? Seeing this in stores gives people the impression that this is the console it was made for.

That box doesn't look very real too me. I don't want to be a naysayer against something potentially great, but I don't particularly believe this.

I believe it's just a CG mock up not a pic of a real box.

According to cnet.com. Sony will release a new PS3 bundle in June for $499. It'll include an 80GB PS3, Dualshock3, and MGS4. Here's a link: http://reviews.cnet.com/game-control...?tag=cnetfd.mt

If this is true, lets hope they manage to bring that to north america as well. It would lead to absolutely awesome sales figures.

Probably, but it must be for a limited time though since the MGS4 bundle is also coming.

PS3ds · 04-07-2008, 11:01 PM

How do we know this is not coming to North America?

Heck, how do we even know this is real? I mean, I've been wrong before, but the only confirmation I've seen on this is from some Swedish or German website I've never heard of before.

Like mentioned above, it looks like an above average Photoshop mockup of a PS3 box. I guess we'll see though. I'll gladly eat crow because Sony really needs to sh*t up something to thwart the 360's exclusive DLC that is exploding heads.

My biggest question is why wouldn't Sony have announced this weeks ago? Why let it miraculously appear on a Swedish retail site only 3 weeks before release date? Just odd, that's all.

Not necessarily. This is a 40gig bundle. MGS4 is an 80gig bundle. They could sell both simultaneously.

Both will be for a limited time, im not arguing that. Im just saying that one doesnt affect the timeline of the other.

Didn't know it was a 40GB lol. IF this is real, they will both probably sell like crazy.

aphex · 04-07-2008, 11:48 PM

This is true as it is confirmed in psm. and considering they are now known as the official playstation magazine I trust it.

It says uk has gt and gta4 bundle and america is getting a mgs4 bundle.
