Europe Getting Four More Bundles For The 250GB PS3

This is a screen from the database of a GameStop in Sweden. See the highlighted bits? They’re four hardware bundles due next month for the still-unofficial 250GB version of the PS3.

There are four bundles: one for FIFA 10, one for Uncharted 2, one for Ratchet & Clank Future and one for Need For Speed: Shift. They’re tentatively priced at 4499 Krona, which works out at around AU$750. As for the release date, they might be out October 2, they might be a little later, as retail system’s aren’t 100% reliable for that kind of thing.

Now, the games shown on this system differ from those rumoured earlier in the month. No big deal: there are always different deals going on across Europe, so these four games may well be offered in a bundle elsewhere, and the Assassin’s Creed II and GT5 packs may well turn up in Scandinavia.

    But they WON’T be $750.

    How much is the slim?? $499?? Then this will retail i believe for around $599. Or $649 to be upset like they did with the PSPgo. Wouldn’t cost Sony that much extra for the extra gigs. So an extra $100 is a hefty profit, if they make a profit from each system sold.

      What’s so special about 37″, 40″, 42″ LCD TV’s?

      Sony/MS don’t want to have the lower end of the stick when it comes to storage. Match the size then its even.

      Perhaps it comes down to manufacturing and price. MS/Sony don’t MAKE the HDD themselves. They probably also look into how much content the average gamer downloads/needs. 250 is also more than double 120GB. It’s not exactly double its not less than double, its a little more.
