Oh so the LBP bundle didnt release in europe after all..

It's going to be released on december 5th. But it's more expensive than the regular model:

Sony PLAYSTATION 3 80 GB Console with Batman Begins (Blu-ray) (*Get a free PS3 game, Blu-ray remote & HDMI cable with this item) £283.79

Sony PLAYSTATION 3 80 GB Console with Little Big Planet (PS3) £299.99

So, the first bundle allows you to get a free movie (Batman Begins, 300 or I'm Legend) and a game (included LBP) and it's almost £20 chaper than the LBP bundle.

 

You can't compare retail bundles with manufacturer bundles.  Lots of retailers offer loss leaders with various consoles, for their own money-making purposes.  The retail sector wants desperately to push Blu-Ray... the PS3 is just part of that strategy.  Sony has nothing to do with retail-specific bundles.  The cheaper 283.79 bundle you mention above is not a Sony official bundle, to my knowledge.

 

The fact that Target, this week, is offering $20 gift certificates to X360 Arcade buyers has nothing to do with MS, either...  Get it?
