Good way to spread the joy that is Uncharted. And get people interested in Uncharted 2.

alright, i retract my original statement that bundling it with uncharted is dumb.

yeah, you guys are right. its the correct game to bundle with. not that many people bought uncharted relative to the other sony A titles.

I was thinking the same thing, but it will be great to see if this idea pays off this fall with R2 and motstorm2, since both of the first games were bundled by Sony and/or retailers at some point.

Yeah PS3 owners can upgrade the HDD themselves, but it's kinda hard to upgrade the HDD if people dont own a PS3.  This is intended for new PS3 buyers, which will drool at the bigger 160GB drive.  This would be pointless if they sold a 160GB Sony PS3 branded hard drive for like $249 for people to buy and upgrade themselves.

im never buying at launch again
i have a 20g 360
and
a 60g ps3

both have SKUs with more space now
lol o well at least i could play perfect dark zero and Mobile Suit Gundam: CROSSFIRE
lol

I'd agree - particularly as I've stuck 250GB in mine.  I wonder though whether it's actually cheaper for Sony to do this.  The HDD is a standard portable drive and it probably costs more to get someone to provide 40GB than just take 120GB off the shelf from someone already set up to produce them.

to me the HDD in the PS3 is irrelevant as it is a standard drive.  I'm always amazed people don't see it as a starter drive and whip it out as/when it suits them.  It's not like 360 with its expensive proprietary drives.  You can shop around and get the best deal possible.

I'd actually prefer Sony to sell PS3 with no HDD and simply allow you to add drive yourself as I'm only paying for a pretty small (by current standards) portable HDD drive that I'm going to remove right away and store in a drawer...

I already have a Launch 60gb, and I'm drooling for the 160gb model for the ones that don't have a PS3!! ; )

If your talking about America, then thats not true, because I brought Uncharted brand new from Sony Style

I will have to buy this.
