Limited Edition Yellow PSP Slim & Simpsons Game Bundle. Oh And Glass
1:30PM Logan Booker | Just an hour or so ago I received a press kit for the Limited Edition Yellow PSP Slim & Lite, which is to be bundled with EA’s The Simpsons Game. You’ll be able to purchase said bundle starting from November 15, for the more than acceptable price of $299.
