Default Metal Gear Solid 4 Bundle

So today I was reading our store informer at work, and I saw something amazing.

There's going to be a PS3 bundle pack with MGS4, 80gb PS3, and a DualShock 3 controller. I personally find this to be incredible news, discuss.

BTW, Sony: Metal Gear Solid 4 PS3 Bundle Announced

Like I said on another forum, this tells me EXACTLY when I'm gonna pick up a PS3

80 gig PS3, dual shock 3, and MGS4 for 500 dollars? Sold!

How much are they overcharging? I don't give a damn about the PS3 so I don't know current prices.

The PS3 is currently 500 dollars for 80 gigs, the original controller, and motorstorm

This bundle offers the same ps3 with the new dual shock 3 and a copy of MGS4 for the same price.

The PR said "some backward compatibility" so I would assume it's in software.

The "some" is due to MGS3 in some FMVs and rendering slowing down.

Also, PS1 games are compatible with the software.

And of course it's the software, they ditched the hardware a looooong time ago so they could drop the price of the system by $100

The software backwards compatibility works perfectly for 99% of games.

Anyhow, I was hoping this was referring to some sort of bundle that DIDN'T include a PS3. I already got one at Christmastime :/

Well, this is certainly tempting... but... it's one game. I'm not sure what else I'd play for it.
