Sony Japan have just announced that they'll be releasing a new PS3 bundle - The "Metal Gear Solid 4 Welcome Box" - to tie-in with the release of MGS4 next month. The bundle will be released on June 12, will retail for ¥49,800, and will include a 40GB PS3, Sixaxis, a vanilla copy of MGS4 and a DualShock 3. It'll be available in all three Japanese colours: black, white and silver (both controllers will be the same colour as the console), and will be offered for a limited time only.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Cool bundles.
I do think it is kind of weird that the box art for the game itself is the US version though...?
I'm movin' to Japan, they always get better stuff, more stuff, and did I mention better stuff >_<. Gah!
Though on a serious note; isn't the US using the 80 GB version and their using the 40 for one of their versions. Does that mean that they will be using the 40, 60 and 80 GB or just the 40 and 80?
Oh man..they said next month and i got butterflys for a split second. haha...
@ above....60 gig is clearly the best model:P Its simply perfect.
Its a shame every1 moaned and groaned and now were stuck with these unnecessary machines.
oh well..we know who to blame ....
Next month is coming very fast. I can't wait to play as Snake in his last mission.
MGO beta is crack. sooo good, cant...stop...the addiction...
