This has to taken as rumour for now, but an EB employee has anonymously sent us a pic of what seems to be an Uncharted platinum bundle, featuring the first and second game, for $69.95.
This morning we simply received the above picture via email, taken from the EB in-store computer catalogue, but after calling EB directly we discovered that the bundle is being released on June 21 – pretty soon, considering we’ve heard absolutely nothing about the bundle to date.
According to the EB staff member we spoke to, Sony tend to bundle a lot of the platinum titles in one package, so it makes sense, with Uncharted 3 being released later this year, to release a double pack like this. If you own a PS3 and have yet to dive into the Uncharted series, this looks set to be as good a chance as any.
We asked Sony for comment, but have yet to hear anything official back.

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 1:20 PMI’ve been considering picking up the first Uncharted over the last couple of weeks. I wonder if I should trade in/sell my copy of Uncharted 2 in anticipation?

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 5:10 PMIt’ll probably be more like the GOW Collection kind of packaging.
If you don’t like it just wrap it in bown paper and if anybody asks tell them its porn. Do whatever you have to do to live with it, but you need those games.

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 1:57 PMI willing to suggest that it will happen. Even though the US don’t speak for us in PAL land, they have recently announced that Resistance 1 & 2 will be released together in a dual pack in July, for the upcoming Resistance 3 in September…

Going by that, it would be safe to assume that an Uncharted Dual pack to be released in September for the upcoming release of Uncharted 3 in November.

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 2:01 PMMaybe I should play Uncharted.
For some reason it’s never really interested me enough to buy it. Maybe this pack would change that.

Never played Uncharted and always thought I should get around to it.

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 3:45 PMMight need to get this. Been meaning to buy Uncharted for a while. Any word on the price?

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 9:14 PMI played the original Uncharted and didn’t like it. I found the combat terrible and it just ruined the game for me.
A few friends of mine say I should give UC2 the benefit of the doubt and try it. Is the combat in it better than UC1?

Buy both from Zavvi for ~$45 shipped.
(If you don’t mind waiting for delivery)

Friday, June 3, 2011 at 1:05 AMI picked up Uncharted 1 at a Black Friday sale last year for $10, and the GOTY edition of Uncharted 2 for $30 earlier this year, both at Walmart.
No idea why this is going to be so expensive.

Friday, June 24, 2011 at 11:45 PMYeah this is way overpriced. Australians could get the games separately at JB HIFI $34 bucks for the last 6 months or something.
