Frys Custom Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB PS3 Bundle… Sucks

Metal gear Solid 4 80GB Playstation 3 bundles

Calling the Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB PS3 bundle I saw at Frys earlier today "custom" is putting it nicely. In order to get your hands on one of those nifty Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB Playstation 3 bundles you have to buy a crap load of other accessories you may not have the slightest interest in having. What a way to ruin what Sony intended to be a great deal. Yes, we have seen "bundle gouging" (my term for it) before with Wii console sales and it sucks balls regardless of the system.

The Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB PS3 bundle itself is supposed to be sold by itself for $499. Frys requires that in order to get the Metal Gear Solid 4 80GB PS3 bundle you also buy the following at a total of $669.62 (before tax is added):

- Metal Gear Solid 4 headset
- Dual Shock 3 controller (in addition to the one that comes with the system)
- Controller Charge Station
- PS3 BluRay Remote

Wow. With a 80 GB PS3, the system better be relevant for at least 7 years before the PS4 is made.

I know how the Wii works. We have [punch]Wii[/punch] so everybody won't know about it. I use to work at Wal-mart. They try to add attachments on the Wii, so they can get more to the store. The Euro and the Pound is worth more, so they ship them over there first to Euro and then ship us ours after that. I got my Wii
