Sony hasn't officially announced a date besides 'june' Buy.com lists the end of june and they(buy & amazon) are the only ones doing pre-order that i can find.
People have speculated it'll be early or late june cause of MGS4. I want this too, but don't get your hopes up.

they have been on that site for a few months now, how is this new news?

anyway im excited as well.

The only thing that would make this cooler would be if this pack had a memory stick.... Cause, lets face it, even if you have two cool games YOU STILL CAN'T SAVE!

I feel like a shill, but if you want a PSP -- now's the time. That color can't be beat, and from what I hear the game's nothing to sneeze at, too. Yeah, it comes with one of the most awful movies ever, but you can always trade that in/resell it.

Here's crossing my fingers that sales of this pack will convince Sony that yes—people OUTSIDE of Japan WOULD enjoy the Slim in something other than the standard white-to-black range.

As long as people don't opt for Amazon's "better together" deal with a case that's made for the old PSP!

I was waiting for this up until two or three months ago. I ended up getting the daxter pack because 1) I have superbad 2) the daxter pack came with 1Gb 3) after seeing it for a long time the red started reminding me of nail polish or red lipstick, which in turn reminds me of my grandmother. I can't be expected to fight Sephiroth or take on giant mythological beasts while reminiscing of my grandmother's apartment which smelled of potpourri and what i can only assume is the rancid smell of death crawling ever closer to the now listless decrepit body of an elderly woman.

Same here...I couldn't wait any longer. I ended up getting a black core. Then bought an 8GB stick on eBay....plus the protective case that Sony no longer packs in with the system.

No regrets. Although, the refresh on the screen could be better. What's up with that? It's not terrible, but I think the DS has a better refresh rate. Plus this is the 2G model.

It's a little sad that an "entertainment pack" is going to require purchasing a USB cable and a memory stick before you can even access the content in the pack. But I can't complain too much, the PSP and game cost more than this.

The red looks great, but it would look even BETTER if it had the clear face buttons & d-pad like all the other PSPs do.

duulem @ May 6th 2008 11:02PM

hell, i even try to swap my daxter psp for this since i have the return policy going on =)

Warner Young @ May 6th 2008 11:07PM

Yeah, I kind of wish they'd just unbundle some of the nicer colors so you can buy them without either getting a game you don't want, or a game you already own.

Nate @ May 7th 2008 4:25PM

eBay is your friend

Gamecrazy has been doing pre-orders for months got mine the day after it was announced

FOXHOUND @ May 7th 2008 10:35AM

My only worry with buying it is that after normal wear & tear, I hope the Kratos art doesn't get worn off.

Alien @ May 7th 2008 1:21PM

Man that looks hot ... the EU CoO bundle looks far less apealing ( having a silver PSP and not the red one ) .

Neuromancer @ May 15th 2008 3:22PM

I got the Daxter pack as a wedding gift (so I could play games on my honeymoon, ha). I'm sure GoW is the better game but I like the silver color and I ended up picking Superbad up anyway to watch on the plane.

Gamestop taking pre-orders now too- wasn't a few weeks back. Don't know of any GameCrazy nearby- though apparently there are. Gamestop on every corner practically though. Considered the Daxter bundle but can get that game for $20 or less now and the red looks sweet. Besides, will be getting 4+ GB card sooner after 1 GB would only annoy..
