MGS4 Bundle Will BRB

For Sony, the MotorStorm bundle was an extremely popular bundle, helping MotorStorm near the 3.5 million sold mark. Not bad for a launch title, let alone a new IP. But sense then, Sony has introduced two new bundles. A 40GB MGS4 bundle and a more limited edition 80GB. (Now neither of these the extremely rare MGS4 Bundle that Konami itself made). Its no surprise that MGS4 was going to be huge but word comes out that within days, the more limited edition 80GB MGS4 bundle is sold out nation wide. With that comes word from Sony Style:

“Due to overwhelming demand, the product is currently unavailable. The new estimated time of arrival date for when this will be available is the beginning of July.”

Now Sony isn’t giving a number in terms of sales with a sold out supply, we can only assume their happy. A SCEA representative stated:

“While we cant provide specifics on inventory levels, the Metal Gear Solid 4 PlayStation 3 bundle is a limited-edition offering thats experiencing high demand from Metal Gear and PlayStation enthusiasts. Were pleased with the strong consumer interest in the bundle and are working to ensure that additional shipments are provided to retailers.”

So for those looking to get their hand on the limited edition of the MGS4 bundle, there is hope. Pros? Cheaper then buying an 80GB PS3 and then the limited edition of the MGS4. Cons, the wait. Verdict?, eBay!
