Hmmm. I think the 60 GB had the best value overall until the MGS4 80 GB bundle pack came out...

The way I see it, with the 80GBs constantly becoming updated so that more and more games are backwards compatible and you also throw in a free game and a dual shock controller, it can't be beat. Of course if harddrive space doesn't matter you are getting extra GB you don't really need.

But yea, I agree with Hermes200 to an extent... you could always buy the 60GB and resell it high and buy an 80GB & games with the profit you make

Based on reviews I have read, the background/completion of the first game does not seem paramount but what is your opinion? Does the game help you appreciate the series even more and understand it better? Will it be too outdated to actually enjoy? Is it just more of the same old in TOB?

1. Perfect Dark - After I beat the single player mode, the multiplayer battles vs PerfectSim kept me entertained for months on end.

2. Final Fantasy Chronicles: Beat it FF2 on Super Nintendo, forgot about the plot entirely and beat it again on PS1, beat Chrono Trigger twice as well

3. Madden 06: Never had the money/time to get 07 or 08 so I would always just dust off the 06 version and get busy come a new fotball season. I think I made it 4-5 sim years playing every game of the year including preseason games once

4. Goldeneye: The first game I was really addicted to. Hardly ever could play multiplayer with my female cousin so I would go back and do the missions over and over.

im getting one.

I heard that there will be more than enough copies and that they have been stockpiling the new 80GBs since they took the Motorcross bundle off the market. I only heard this online so your guess is as good as mines but Im hoping that there are more than enough to go around

*sigh* Someone please make a sticky of this. TWO Bundles for the United States.

1st: MSRP $499.98

Includes: 80GB Piano Black Playstation 3 (has Backwards Compatibility with both PS1 and about 85% of all PS2 games) Dualshock 3 controller, and a copy of the standard $59.99 version of Metal Gear Solid 4. According to various retailers, this bundle will not have a pre-order because Sony has yet to determine how many each store will receive. All preorders for this bundle through buy.com and other sites were cancelled as per request by Sony. It is estimated that there will be enough in production to supply each person who wishes to purchase one up until the years end, much like the 80GB Motorstorm bundle.

2nd: MSRP $599.98

Includes: 40GB Gun Metal Gray Playstation 3 (has Backwards Compatibility for PS1 games only) Dualshock 3 controller (in matching Gun Metal Gray color), and a copy of the $84.99 Metal Gear Solid 4 Limited Edition. This edition is in very limited quantaties, and can only be preordered through www.Konami.com starting on May 19th, 2008. Considered as a collectors item.

Both Bundles have been officially stated by Sony and Konami reps to be released alongside the game on June 12th, 2008. Konami has the 2nd Bundle viewable on their site, with price, release date as June 12th and specifications listed.

Thanks for the info, everything else has been flogged to death but there has been a just amount of speculation on the amount being released so hopefully you are right. I think you should start a new thread and repost what you just said and hopefully that will get stickied. The MGS4 bundle questions are always the same questions...
