Yep.

That’s the Gran Turismo bundle, not the MGS bundle, right?

Just spoke to them. Apparently they’re going to announce the bundle date today or tomorrow.

Yep. It’s not ideal.

The new GT5P bundle’s a complete and utter pisstake when you see the 80GB MGS4 one in the States.

They get an 80GB BC-enabled unit with a Dual-shock and a highly anticipated game for ~£250

We get a 40GB non-BC model with a Dual-shock and an extended demo for….. £300

>:-(

It’s the same one, but used in an Alf Garnett fashion. I do wish they’d drop the bloody price, though.

Is that ‘one’ like the Queen uses it? Are you royalty, Pat?

“Fall” 2008, one reckons.

Blerk — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 08:52:11 +0000

Good, I’m glad you’re satisfied. Now drop the fuggin’ price.
