MGS4 Release Date and Bundle [Update]

I have a friend attending Destination Playstation. He just sent me a text with some exciting info. MGS4 will be released on June 12, 2008. It will be bundled with a 80GB PS3 with a Dual Shock 3 as well. This will be great for those people that haven’t got a PS3 yet and want to jump in.

Side note for PSP Users:

There will be a Blood Red PSP bundled with God of War in June. Which is odd, because that game is out next week.

[Update]

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.

Where can I pre-order??! I want in on that Beta :D

    Nice! June 12th happens to be my birthday.

    But alas, I live in Europe. So is this a worldwide release or USA only? And if that’s the case, when will it get to Europe.

  10. Darrin Says:

    Wow, MGS4 preview in April!

    April is one hot month for PS3: GTA4, GT5:P, and now DualShock 3, MGS4 Preview and a rumored store redesign. Wow!

  11. bunnyhero Says:

    this is huge!

    i can’t wait for MGS4.

  12. SL33PY Says:

    I can’t say its a suprise. I’ve expected this. On the red PSP, it’s probable the left over production of the Spiderman Psp bundle, which also was a red one. I almost bought one, but my wife “talked” me out of it… *cough* … ;) :D

  13. YoDaddy Says:

    6/13 is my b-day and that red psp has got my name all over it ! BONG
