PS3s Bundled With GT5 Prologue, Blu-rays
It's not Metal Gear Solid 4, but it will have to do.
Just days after Sony's North American arm said that it is putting together a PlayStation 3 hardware bundle that includes Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, company representatives in Europe have said that PlayStation 3 owners there here will have more options too.
MCV reports that Sony is planning two hardware bundles. Representatives for the company confirmed the first but were less forthcoming with details on the other.
The first of two bundles will be packaged with Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, the taster version of the full racing game in development at Polyphony Digital. The second emphasizes the system's movie playback functionality instead, including Blu-ray copies of Casino Royale, Spider-Man 3 and 300 in the box.
P L E A S E V I S I T O U R S P O N S O R :
Both hardware bundles will include the current 40 GB model of the PlayStation 3. Unlike the US bundles, though, the bundles will not include the new DualShock 3 controller, which does not yet have a release date in Europe.
The bundles will reportedly cost €399, or around £300, when they're released in Europe in March.
