MGS4 Gun Metal PS3 bundle coming to North America
This one is a delightful surprise. While we've been ogling over the Limited Edition packaging of Metal Gear Solid 4, PlayStation.Blog confirms that the Gun Metal Limited Edition bundle will be heading to North America as well. The site wrote, "We are confirming that there will be a North America offering of this very, very Limited Edition bundle!" The Gun Metal PS3 bundle is the very same one that quickly sold out over at Konami's Japanese site. Further details such as price have not been revealed.
Well there you have it folks. You now have four ways of splurging on MGS4. Which way are you going? Standard, limited, bundle, limited bundle? Why not all!

Nice! I like

I pre-ordered the limited edition because I heard the MGS PS3 bundle only had that standard edition. Now that the Gunmetal PS3 is coming I'll do everything I can to get it.
If the Halo 360 came with a game I would have bought that when it was available, good thing I held on to my money.

Shoulda went to costco when the halo system came out. Got the halo console, limited edition game, and a halo controller with the mini masterchief figure. Hope they have the same thing for this, but i'm pre-ordering whereever i can just in case. Been holding out for a ps3 just for this game.
Marztype @ Apr 10th 2008 5:21PM
Now see I probably would have, especially since I go to cosco a lot. I never saw it so I guess it's too bad, I still mostly play it at my friend's apartment though, so I wouldn't get much use out of it.

Ok, slightly off-topic question here. I can't find an 80gb PS3 anywhere, not amazon, not best buy, not gamestop. only ebay for over 600 bucks it seems. I don't keep up with gaming news much, so i'm assuming they're discontinued. Does this mean that I can't buy an 80gb PS3 until this bundle comes out? It's an awesome deal but having to wait 2 months for it sucks, I was hoping to have a PS3 before GTAIV dropped. Oh well, just have to wait or hope and pray for a GTAIV 80gb bundle.
Van @ Apr 10th 2008 4:48PM
You are correct on it being discontinued. GTA bundle MAY be 80gb. I think somewhere it said the MGS4 bundle may be backwards compatible... I hope it is.
Glen @ Apr 10th 2008 4:41PM
Price?
mathab @ Apr 10th 2008 4:45PM
none yet.
upz @ Apr 10th 2008 4:47PM
Free!
Glen @ Apr 10th 2008 4:52PM
You know, I've been trying really hard to be the last person on the planet with a 20GB launch PS3, but this coming to North America is making it REALLY hard not to sell my 20GB and save up for it.
balaamsafe @ Apr 10th 2008 4:54PM
am i the only one that thinks that thing is damm ugly
jrsz24 @ Apr 10th 2008 4:57PM
I totally agree. It's not attractive at all, and will stick out like a sore thumb with most other components.
Vcize @ Apr 10th 2008 5:50PM
Not just you. The glossy black fits in perfectly in the entertainment center.
never$$hort @ Apr 10th 2008 6:28PM
Its ugly..
madgunde @ Apr 10th 2008 10:36PM
I think it looks awesome and would have bought it over the fingerprint and dust collecting glossy black if I had a choice at launch. Don't get me wrong, the glossy black looks great too, but this new colour looks badass.
JoJo @ Apr 11th 2008 9:47AM
I think it looks nice, just that it says MGS4 on the bottom.
I don't like that part, i mean, when MGS4 goes outta date..
What happens then??
Antonio Garcia @ Apr 10th 2008 5:03PM
Im buying this. this is what i have been waiting for. i was going to try to get a ps3 before the mgo beta but i would gladly wait just for this bundle. ( i hope it is backwards compatible) !!!!!
FOXHOUND @ Apr 10th 2008 5:29PM
I have a 60GB PS3 already... but I'll probably give it to my brother and buy this one instead. I definitely want it though.
flynn110 @ Apr 10th 2008 5:03PM
is it dust resistant?! ;)
Phil @ Apr 10th 2008 5:11PM
I like it...
Does the final version say: Metal Gear Solid 4: Limited Edition on it though?
that's the one thing I'm really disliking, it's just plain wrong.
Dilly @ Apr 10th 2008 5:19PM
gunmetal controllers on the horizon??
Teqonix @ Apr 10th 2008 5:25PM
I would do anything in my power to get this if the PS3 was of the 60GB variety with hardware backwards compatibility, but I highly doubt that's going to be the case, so I'm unfortunately going to have to pass this beautiful device up.. =(
bykerjock @ Apr 10th 2008 6:45PM
Hmmm...you might want to rethink that, and try for this.
Unless I'm mistaken, the 80GB units (which this is) are BC.
So, you'd be getting the BC you wanted, along with 20GB more storage....
oh, and yeah...in this Limited Edition package. Not too shabby.
Just an observation.
NukeAssault @ Apr 10th 2008 7:03PM
gamestop sells em refurbished on the website.
DepheCt @ Apr 10th 2008 5:28PM
I seen someone talking about 80 gigs cant be found anywhere and they are really expensive, check out my video I am selling mine for 400$

dan @ Apr 10th 2008 5:48PM
damn... I already have a 60GB PS3...
mo @ Apr 10th 2008 6:48PM
so wait. This is the 40gb w/out b/c right?
If this is the 80gb and has b/c I'm all over it. Otherwise I'll just get the regular 80gb black bundle.
HacksawMcgraw @ Apr 10th 2008 7:02PM
Ok waitwait,so the GunMetal version comes with the SPECIAL EDITION version of mgs 4(with all its extra content and special boxart) or is the GunMetal 80 gig ps3 with the NORMAL version of mgs4.
Help!
kentuckyfried @ Apr 10th 2008 10:05PM
I've asked about this on the gamefaqs boards and people keep saying that it's just the "normal" edition of the game, not the LE.
the LE's not going to fit into a standard sized box unless they get creative. Besides, that would drive the cost up. I've never paid $85 for an LE set before.
ryan @ Apr 10th 2008 7:32PM
ew, it's the 40gb model nm...
i wish PS3s came in a matte like this, but black...i don't care much for the gloss...i've seen them in used game stores all scratched up nasty lookin...
NukeAssault @ Apr 10th 2008 8:12PM
Pretty sure its 80gb...

kentuckyfried @ Apr 10th 2008 10:05PM
Just hurry up and release the white ps3 with the matte finish...to match my DS3 controllers!
MetalKingSlime @ Apr 10th 2008 11:59PM
looks awesome.
ryan @ Apr 11th 2008 2:35AM
@Nuke assault:
No this Gunmetal Limited edition is only 40gb.
(And fix the stupid comment system!)
MGS4 @ Apr 11th 2008 8:53AM
Where this miss number GB!?
NegativeZero @ Apr 11th 2008 10:03AM
This is great: a special edition PS3 to commemorate the ONLY reason to own a PS3 thus far!
Lars @ Apr 29th 2008 3:26PM
... for you I guess, 360 fanboy troll.
For me, there's still no reason to buy a 360.
