Playstation Blog Destination PlayStation News: MGS PS3 Bundle, Kratos PSP and DualShock3 Release Date Not every video game event is a press and party extravaganza (like last week’s GDC). As a gamer, you may not have heard of Destination PlayStation - a meeting between Sony PlayStation, retailers, and 3rd party teams taking place right now in Arizona. But the discussions at DPS are generally pretty significant. Here’s what’s being announced RIGHT NOW. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PS3 Bundle To coincide with the much-anticipated North American launch of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots in late Q2 2008, SCEA will introduce a PS3 bundle, which will include an 80GB PS3, the upcoming blockbuster Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, and a DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller for $499.99 (MSRP). As has been announced previously, MGS4 will include a Metal Gear Online “Starter Pack.” If you can’t wait to try out MGS4, the good news is you don’t have to much longer. Those who pre-order the game will be guaranteed access to a multiplayer beta test for Metal Gear Online scheduled for late April. God of War PSP Entertainment Pack In June, a new PSP Entertainment Pack will be hitting stores, featuring the famous face of the Ghost of Sparta — Kratos. Here’s what you get in the bundle, which will be available for $199.99 (MSRP): * Limited-Edition “Deep Red” PSP with Kratos silkscreened on the back * God of War: Chains of Olympus * Superbad on UMD video * Voucher to download Syphon Filter: Combat Ops from PLAYSTATION Store for freeGod of War: Chains of Olympus still arrives for PSP on March 4, 2008. DUALSHOCK 3 The final piece of big news coming out of DPS is another much-requested release date: SCEA will introduce the DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller for the first time in North America in April 2008 for $54.99 (MSRP). Compatible with more than 100 PS3 games, DUALSHOCK 3 has both rumble and motion-sending SIXAXIS technologies. So now you’ll be able to play Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, and, yes, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots with rumble turned ON.

Not a fan of the silkscreens. Guess it doesn't matter much to me regardless since I already have a deep red. I do need to try out the game demo I have to see if I'm interested, though. PSP time is sunk into DJ Max more often than not, LOL.

The only thing I don't like about the GoW bundle is no 1GB memory stick. That's an extra $30 - $40...

The MGS4 bundle is 80GB. If you hate MGS4 that much just sell the game off on Amazon or something afterwards. If it's anything like the DMC4, Motorstorm, or Ratchet + Uncharted bundles it'll just be the game and a Black PS3 (or white in Japan since DMC4 had a bundle with both.)
