I'm actually glad the PS3 didn't drop more.
I was worried too many buyers would delay their purchase until the 80 GB get restocked...

Not everyone interested in buying a PS3 is going to just buy MGS4 due to the hype. If that were the case, I think a lot of people would be disappointed since the game is pretty far from a universal appeal title.

Of course anyone who wanted to play MGS4 and was waiting for it to buy a PS3, only to be completely denied of a bundle is just going to wait until the 80GB bundles are back in stock.

It's clearly a better deal unless you just don't want the game, which you'd still be able to flip on Craig's List, Ebay or Amazon Marketplace if not.

At this point, nothing is proved about the correlation between MGS4 and hardware sales until those bundles are back in stock. Only after normal stock levels for the bundle are seen on shelves can it be said that the hardware bump has subsided.
