wtf? so wait, youre paying $100 more than the regular mgs bundle for less harddrive space, no bc, a different color and the special version of the game? sounds like a ripoff.

even if its made out of a different material, still too much

Not if you buy and then sell and make double what you paid for which is what half of these sold will probably be.

 

[norinrad21]

$600?

Jesus, i wonder how much the 80gig would go for........sigh

Lets count how many times this will be repeated for the next 10 pages!

 

[Guybrush Threepwood]

Are they 4Real?

I'll stick with the regular bundle, even with that awful box art.

 

[Vanish]

Not if you buy and then sell and make double what you paid for which is what half of these sold will probably be.

yeah thats true, but i would want to buy one to keep it, not to sell it. to do that, i would have to spend $1200...

 

[bud]

am i reading that right? NEVER-BEFORE-RELEASED MORRICONE TRACKS???!!!!

i don't even know what to say anymore

this is too good

 

[The Faceless Master]

so you can buy the regular bundle and the le game combined for less than this, and still be able to play mgs2 and mgs3 on the 80gb unit?

oh konami

 

[jjasper]

yeah thats true, but i would want to buy one to keep it, not to sell it. to do that, i would have to spend $1200...

Well you might come out even?

 

[Tom_Cody]

Ecstasy of Gold would be amazing as well....OMG.

MGS4 just got more epic. Imagine the possibilities...

 

[DarkestFiber]

I wonder if their site will survive the F5 frenzy that will begin Sunday night.

 

[Azzurri]

Guys, you're missing the point. It's all about cashing in on Ebay and making double the profit. :lol

 

[Vanish]

Well you might come out even?

yeah i guess but i dont have that much money to spend right now unfortunately >_<

 

[dasupremeone]

Was Morricone as the music composer a big secret until today?

 

[Draft]

But will that earn you LE MGS4 Game and Dualshock 3? :/

Oh wait, i thought I was bailing out of this thread?

My understanding is that the 80gb bundle DOES come with a DS3.

 

[polyh3dron]

MORRICONE?


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

 

[distantmantra]

I hadn't heard about it previously.

 

[polyh3dron]

So the one that's going to be released in stores that's 80GB WON'T BE GUNMETAL?

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

I don't think i'll listen to soundtrack until i finish the game

 

[DancingCactus77]

Their server based on EST or PST?

 

[jjasper]

No it is black

edit: here it is

 

[sprocket]

So the one that's going to be released in stores that's 80GB WON'T BE GUNMETAL?

Seems that way.

 

[DancingCactus77]

80GB won't be gunmetal.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Eh, it's priced that way simply because it's limited and Konami knows they well sell through it, so don't be to surprised.



Now this...

MORRICONE?


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

...IS A SURPRISE!!

 

[AgentOtaku]

...sure the no BC sucks, but I personally don't plan on playing PS2 games forever....
The less HDD space is the more poo of it all IMO as is the overall price as it's essentially the basic $399 sku with the following:

- A unique case (not just recolored plastic)...at least according to Ryan P.

- A unique Dual Shock 3

- MGS4 LE, which is $84.99 msrp

- No BC

.....so yeah, $200 more for the case and MGS4 LE basically. I want this thing soooo badly, but yes, its a tough fucking sale =(

 

[The Faceless Master]

Did you get the LE halo3 game with the halo3 360 ?

Its basically buying everything in one package. LE game, PS3 , DS3.

Halo 3 LE Console + Halo 3 LE = $30 more than Xbox 360 Pro Console + Play & Charge Kit + Halo 3 LE

Konami SAFE Kit = $115 more than 40GB PS3 + MGS4 LE ($60 more if they still aren't coming with a DS3)

 

[brandonh83]

Yeah the bundle info is NOT the news here today, folks.

MORRICONE

 

[Kintaro]

Halo 3 LE Console + Halo 3 LE = $30 more than Xbox 360 Pro Console + Play & Charge Kit + Halo 3 LE

Konami SAFE Kit = $115 more than 40GB PS3 + MGS4 LE ($60 more if they still aren't coming with a DS3)

I think you're forgetting a DS3 somewhere in that equation.

 

[DancingCactus77]

Agreed. I pre-ordered at both NCSX and Play-Asia and was prepared to get raped by import prices. I was also planning on to get two as well. It looks like my chances of getting a gunmetal PS3 are getting higher by the day.

MORRICONE

THIS

4 weeks to go omg

 

[SolidSnakex]

So people are really pissed over the price? Apparently the material the gunmetal PS3 is made out of is different from what other PS3's are made out of. It's not just a different color. On top of that, it's actually a real limited edition and not just marketing talk.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Yeah the bundle info is NOT the news here today, folks.

MORRICONE

FUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK.GIF

 

[AndyD]

Do we have info on the 80gb bundle? DS3 in there? 65nm cell?

 

[dallow_bg]

Yeah the bundle info is NOT the news here today, folks.

MORRICONE

Do you rike it?

 

[Mrbob]

Haha, what a shitty bundle.

The 80GB PS3 with regular MGS4 for $499.99 is a much better value.

And you can play the previous MGS games on it to boot.

 

[The Faceless Master]

I think you're forgetting a DS3 somewhere in that equation.

oh, did i?

 

[MarkMan]

I'm still getting one... but...

You guys remember the Japanese price for the same bundle was about $600 right?

Did anyone expect that to change? I sure didn't...

 

[brandonh83]

Do you rike it?

Rike it? Man I'm praying the CD has a big enough hole.

 

[Hooterville]

Why they would make this LE bundle out of a stripped down 40GB I'll never know.

I'm not pissed over the price, I'm pissed that it's a 40GB instead of an 80GB.

 

[WinFonda]

I sure hope it's this track by ENNIO MORRICONE:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ff-kQ-UmflA

I can just imagine Liquid Ocelot and Solid Snake facing off to this... Oh god yes. It'd be perfect.

 

[sprocket]

Halo 3 LE Console + Halo 3 LE = $30 more than Xbox 360 Pro Console + Play & Charge Kit + Halo 3 LE

Konami SAFE Kit = $115 more than 40GB PS3 + MGS4 LE ($60 more if they still aren't coming with a DS3)

wait did you add HALO3s LE price to the equation ?

and of course its MGS! and not nearly as ugly the halo case! :lol

 

[brandonh83]

I can just imagine Liquid Ocelot and Solid Snake facing off to this... Oh god yes. It'd be perfect.

I wouldn't want that because I'd be laughing my ass off, but that music is just SIMPLY FUCK AWESOME (and it was in Kill Bill vol. 1!)

MORRICONE

 

[The Faceless Master]

wait did you add HALO3s LE price to the equation ?

and of course its MGS! and not nearly as ugly the halo case! :lol

so it's $115 prettier?

 

[sublime085]

I'm sticking to my 80gb bundle. (which better be day and fucking date with the game)

can't wait!

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Sorry to go off-topic but this ad is fucking annoying!!!

 

[DenogginizerOS]

yada yada yada.....Morricone doing some soundrtack work......HOLY SHIT!!!!!

As a fan of the Sergio Leone Clint Eastwood "spaghetti westerns", this is a megaton for me. MEGATON!

 

[DenogginizerOS]

so it's $115 prettier?

True rarity is worth this to some. It will sell out quickly because it is a true collector's edition.

 

[Hooterville]

I'm sticking to my 80gb bundle. (which better be day and fucking date with the game)

can't wait!

I'm with you on this one.

Let's just hope it's available on the 12th.

Will the Black MGS4 bundle have the MGS4 logo on it?

 

[soldat7]

...sure the no BC sucks, but I personally don't plan on playing PS2 games forever....

I do.

 

[LiK]

so it's $115 prettier?

indeed it is.

 

[sevenchaos]

This bundle is lame. Overly priced. Not worth it.

I want that color. ; ;
