Also no plans for the 80GB version here. We will be getting a little more for our money though. The £425 model (despite the fact that retailers are already only charging £399 to push stock) will now come with two games and an extra controller.

The article also talks of how the 60GB version will stop selling in the US after stocks deplete.

Again, stupid Sony. I'm very annoyed.

****ers lol that deal sounds ok though, two games and a extra controller for £399 not bad. ( or did i misunderstand tht bit? lol )

A premium 360 with 2 of the latest games and a controler would come to £400 anyways, so its pretty much as cheap as a 360 over here now.

very true. so whens this comming into effect?

Ok the bundle is definitely good. What are the two games? Resistance nad Motorstorm or can you choose? It is sort of a price drop...

 

[uchiha_itachi]

if its them, im trading them in when i get them lol

I doubt Resistance would come bundled with the system being that it is rated M

The IGN article assumed the games would be Resistance and Motorstorm, but we don't actually know yet. Could be Heavenly Sword if the bundle comes around the right time. That would be nice.
