Its worth noting that Sony has bundled Uncharted 3 this holiday "Forza Motorsport" style.

However MS likes to see their exclusive sell on its own for the holidays and then bundles it later. Sony it seems, bundled their biggest game of the year from day 1.

While many like to say its just Sony being good to its consumers with a great bundle, it seems that Sony is trying to inflate the sales of the series off the bat, not confident in its ability to sell well on its own out the gate. AAA games are meant to be system sellers without being bundled.....right away......hence the term system seller.

A great milestone, not impressive compared to Halo or anything, but Sony has the beginnings of having one mascot based exclusive that actually delivers on 5 million sales per game. Too many Sony Ips are doomed to a 1-2 million lifetime sales performance.

...yeah ...these bundles launched with their respective games the very same day

I have seen other people quote this, but Ill just respond to the origional.

You merely looked on the surface and showed some pics.....no depth whatsoever.

Those 360 bundles costed $100 more then the usual consoles. Extra controller, bigger hard drive, and especially the custom design. Not to mention these has extremely limited availability. 

The Uncharted 3 bundle has no added value to the purchase aside from the game itself. No custom console, no extra controller, just a regular PS3 with the game packed in. From the ads im seeing itll be widely available for the entire holidays - type of limited. 

Again, the counter was skin deep.
