Oh well, if you want to believe that the bundle is impossible to find that's ok.

If nothing else hopefully someone who wants to buy it can use the links I provided before they sell out, assuming they will sell out.

It was sold out in minuts on Amazon again. The demand so high that GS and like Costo have those bundles at $550+ with just extra controller or another useless accesory.

Then don't be surprised when you see huge jump in next week sales.

 

Frankly, everyone, as lovely as it is to assume, I'll believe it when I see it.

People want the 80gb and are willing to pay a premium for it. Imagine if the PS3 was price competitively to the 360.

I can confirm 2 thing

My WalMart did not get a new shipment of Games at all today

There is no sign of a PS3 or MGS4 anywhere in the store including the back storage cages.

Have sony shipped more MGS4 bundles recently? It seem so because many online store had it in past couple of days.

MGS4 or MGS4 80gb bundle? How can MGS4 be out of stock?
