Nice move by sony though I suspect it will have more of an impact outside of Japan. It would be cool if they bundled WKS in Japan when it comes out.

DMC4 will sell better than the 360 in Japan, and with this news, I'm assuming it will move a few hardware. The jury is pretty split with which version is better, either the 360 or PS3: A few sites are saying that the game just feels better on a PS3 controller. I'm curious as to how much DMC4 will sell on the 360.

I imagine DMC4 would feel better on a PS3 controller because you played DMC 1-3 on a PS2 controller. Just makes sense you know? It's not like the 360 controller is much different other then how it feels in your hands. I mean when I went from NBA 2K on PS2 to on 360. The 360 version just wasn't ever as comofrtable.

Sony is bundling 3rd party games with the PS3, at least here in Portugal. Today I saw a 40 GB Ratchet and Clank bundle for 440 €, and it was for sure official since the box was custom made for the bundle.

I thought sony didnt bundle 3rd party games?

I dont think the 360 version is being released in Japan so you can consider the game Japan exclusive. it might be 3rd aprty but they know it wil be a major seller in Japan and the PS3 is the main dev paltform.

You couldn't be more wrong.

Anyways, I wonder if they intend to bring the white PS3 stateside. I doubt we'll see the bundle here, but it would be nice to have a choice of colors. Then again Sony has always had lots of different system colors in Japan.

R&C isn't third party.

How much is the pricing difference for this bundle? Is it discounted at all are the same as a separate PS3 + cost of game?

Not a negative thing, just curious. THey need to do this will all big games that are in some fashion exclusives.
