Be Prepared to Pre-Order Your Metal Gear Solid 4 Bundle!


...that is, if you've got a disposable income.

Tomorrow you'll be able to pre-order the Gun Metal-colored Metal Gear Solid 4 Playstation 3 bundle. It is going to be sold exclusively through Konami's online store. Not only does it feature a special paint job, but it will contain a copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 (which is, hands down, the most eagerly anticipated game coming to the Playstation 3), the game's soundtrack and a non-interactive Blu-Ray disc jam-packed with extras.

Although Konami has not revealed how many of these will be produced, early reports from Japan (where they received a Metal Gear bundle of their own and it sold out almost immediately) indicate that these will be very severely limited.

The bad part, now, comes from the actual price of these units: $600. Yup, 600 big ones for a Playstation 3 that contains a mere 40 GB hard drive. Now, I'm no mathematician, but this bundle is more than wee-bit overpriced for what you're getting. Still, fans and collectors are undoubtedly going to eat this pack up when pre-orders start on Konami.com tomorrow. The actual unit will ship out on June 12th.

Wait a minute. I believe you are incorrect on this one. The bundle will come with an 80 gig PS3 that will be $ 500 (that includes everything). I doubt a $ 600 PS3 even exists.

No, the prices I listed are correct. It is a 40 GB for $600 (Konami's official site confirms this). The reason it costs more than a standard PS3 is because it's a limited edition bundle.

Oh, it is the limited edition. I didn't catch that the first time. That means there are 2 bundles. A 40 gig with the limited edition that is $ 600 and an 80 gig with the standard version that is $ 500. There is also a Europe Metal Gear 4 40 gig PS3 bundle. How many more bundles can they make? I don't even remember seeing this many bundles for Halo 3. Every time I see that bundle, it makes me want to buy another PS3. The PS3 box that I own looks awful. I would like to a bundle with Naomi on the cover. She is oh so very attractive with her tight buns and plump breasts.

I was going to get it, but I will probably just get an 80 gig and the game seperate.. Unless they have that $500 bundle when I go shopping.. doubt it tho.

You will save money if you go with the 80 gig bundle instead of buying the game and an 80 gig separately. Why don't they have $ 500 bundles where you live DEITRIX?
