Super $200 PSP bundle coming in October

Category: Sony PSP, Posted: 07/16/2008 at 01:48PM CDT by Frank Ling, Editorial Director

psp silverYes, there is actually news outside of E3! Sony revealed that it plans to launch a mega deal PSP bundle slated for release in October.

In this jammed packed bundle, Sony is offering a silver PSP, the game Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters, a coupon to download Echochrome, a UMD movie and a 1GB memory stick for only $200.

It looks like Sony is out on the hunt to capture more of the handheld market with the lower price and added swag.

When the PSP first launched in 2005, it retailed for $249 and only came with the PSP, a small 32MB memory card and charging chord. The new price and sweet bundle just may generate some more PSP fans out there.

The fact is this: The PSP just doesn't have enough games that I WANT to play.
