At Playstation Destination Sony announced some new hardware bundles to coincide with some big games coming out this spring and Summer.  These bundles include yet another PS3 hardware bundle, this time including the much anticipated Metal Gear Solid 4.  They are also showing some more love for the PSP with a “deep red” color PSP including God of War Chains of Olympus.

“Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PS3 Bundle
To coincide with the much-anticipated North American launch of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots in late Q2 2008, SCEA will introduce a PS3 bundle, which will include an 80GB PS3, the upcoming blockbuster Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, and a DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller for $499.99 (MSRP).”

and for the PSP

“God of War PSP Entertainment Pack
In June, a new PSP Entertainment Pack will be hitting stores, featuring the famous face of the Ghost of Sparta — Kratos. Here’s what you get in the bundle, which will be available for $199.99 (MSRP):

• Limited-Edition “Deep Red” PSP with Kratos silkscreened on the back
• God of War: Chains of Olympus
• Superbad on UMD video
• Voucher to download Syphon Filter: Combat Ops from PLAYSTATION Store for free “

Now i’m digging the red PSP and certainly a nice bundle.  What makes me chuckle though is the voucher for a free Syphon Filter game download yet the PSP includes no memory card?  Don’t get me wrong, I would rather purchase a cheap 4GB memory card online or somewhere else but that will still be mighty confusing for some wondering what to do with that voucher.
