Ummmm...Didnt this article say "exclusive to Japan" in the beginning,but the last sentece says,"North American fans will be able to pick up an 80GB PS3 MGS4 starter pack for the same price as the current MotorStorm bundle later this year."

Unfair for us non-japan :-(

sweet. yes it did say exclusive to japan. i hope i make some more money soon and i can pre-orderer this!! but, i think they are getting the 40 gb and the u.s. is getting the 80 gb. with dual shock 3 and MGS4. i think x-play said we'd get 2 dual shock 3 controllers

hope europe gets it but a camouflage steel verson instead, that wud be the best!!

Yea 1solidsnake xplay say that did say we will be getting it in the states.These guys better get their statements right.

@Deusthousand LOL. Quick to post without editing I guess.....

i'd love to see this version come to us.  i LOVE that steel color.

psn id: gingo.... not surprised this is the second best colour behind the original glossy black plus with it being bundled with MGS4 it was always going to sell well

Im not surprised it sold out... just look at it! Sexy

O.k., I've already been to the Japanese store since last weekend like I said in my other posts, and the Japanese MGS4 PS3 back has been sold out for DAYS on the Konami Store. But, I'm not surprised because I knew that when MGS4 came out, Japan would be going crazy for PS3's, and a MGS4 PS3 pack is just almost too good to be true, it's a must buy. Period. Japan probably wont be going this crazy for PS3's again until Final Fantasy XIII comes out.

Doesn't it not say that the STEEL version is exclusive to Japan?  It doesn't say anything about a STEEL version coming to north america, what it does say is "North American fans will be able to pick up an 80GB PS3 MGS4 starter pack", which will be the same as the Motorstorm bundle.  MEANING - A regular black 80GB bundle and not the limited edition steel one from Japan.

Now if the main story was edited from when you posted then ok I see what your saying, but even your quote says nothing about a steel version in USA.

OK, this was going sell out, everyone knew it was lol. It is going to be the biggest game of this year because it is the epic ending to Snake.

i just wanna play MGS4!

MGS4 bundled with any system is an automatic sellout.

I really need to know if the STEEL PS3 is coming to the US. If not, then I'm not gonna save up for it.

this is no surprise!
