Good news for all currently PS3less

For real? Haha, that's great :D I waited to buy a PS3 until MGS4 is released and now I can just buy them as a package :D

edit: Just read the article. I'm also glad that it has the normal, black colour. I don't like all those special edition colours.

Finally SCEE, Need to go tell my cousin now..

Thats nice. Really nice! ^_^
Eventually... Europe gets something!

But I want the 80GB edition to be region free and in my country they don't sell these ones! Damn it.

All PS3's are regionfree. So if you imported one then you'd beable to use it providing you get the right plugs/convertors.

Well at least it's something. I'm hoping we get a Duelshock 3 with that and not a SIXAXIS.

Also I'm hoping this will signal another drop in the PS3 price; if they get it to the £200-250 mark that'll be the sweet spot right there.

Kotaku has the press release and it says the bundle comes with SIXAXIS, not DS3

Oh thank you micster. I didn't know that. Now it's much better.

You give hope to people... ^_^

Nice, It makes sense having bundle due to many people buying a PS3 just for MGS4, Though i have a PS3 already, I'm still waiting for the European Special Editon of Metal Gear Solid 4 :angry:

Well you could just import the US SE since the PS3 and BluRay is region free....

So no Dual Shock 3?

Or in other words, no European release date for Dual Shock 3?

Man SCEE dropped the ball with that shit. I wouldn't mind so much, but my imported one has broke and I don't feel like importing another one. Silly Sony.

Aha, I knew it. I have waited and waited and not bought a PS3 in hope of a MGS4 bundle and it has finally arrived.

Although, is the bundle just a PS3 and MGS4 normal edition and nothing else?
