PS3 80GB MGS4 Bundle
Amazon.com
As DVD playback made the PlayStation 2 more than just a game machine, hefty multi-media features make the Sony PlayStation 3 an even more versatile home entertainment machine. Features such as video chat, Internet access, digital photo viewing, and digital audio and video will likely make it the central component of your media set-up. Still, it is first and foremost a game console--a powerful one at that. Now you can own this powerful console and start playing the most anticipated game of the year, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, right out of the box! Under the Hood of the PS3
The PS3 features IBM's "Cell" processor and a co-developed Nvidia graphics processor that makes the system able to perform two trillion calculations per second. That's approximately 320 times more calculations per second than the PS2. Along with the traditional AV and composite connections, it also boasts an HDMI port, which delivers uncompressed, unconverted digital picture and sound to compatible high-definition TV and projectors. The system is capable of 128-bit pixel precision and 1080p resolution for a full HD experience. | Bundled Playstation 3 Includes

| Playstation 3 Features Blu-Ray is the New Way
Sony's PlayStation 3 games are encoded onto the Blu-Ray disc media format, which can hold six times as much data as traditional DVDs. This increase in capacity--combined with the awesome power of its processor and graphics card--promises mind-blowing games once developers have learned how to fully harness the new console's power. The PS3 will also support CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD+R formats. In addition, PlayStation 3 system software update version 2.20 and up includes BD Live support. With this you can now play discs that support Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 (BD-LIVE) and you can also connect to the Internet while playing discs that support this format so that you can obtain additional features. Features that are available vary depending on the software in use. - The Dualshock 3 Rumble Wireless Controller
The Dualshock 3 Rumble wireless controller for the PlayStation 3 system provides the most intuitive game play experience with pressure sensors in each action button and the inclusion of the highly sensitive SIXAXIS motion sensing technology. Each hit, crash and explosion is more realistic when the user feels the rumble right in the palm of their hand. It can even detect natural movements for real-time and high precision interactive play, acting as a natural extension of the user’s body. Dualshock 3 wireless controller utilizes Bluetooth technology for wireless game play and the controller’s USB cable to seamlessly and automatically charge the controller through the PlayStation 3 system at anytime. - Plays All PlayStation Games
The PlayStation 3 will be backward compatible with PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games, which means you'll be able to play all your favorite games without keeping all the old systems. The console will have slots for Memory Stick Duo, an SD slot and a Compact Flash memory slot. It comes with a pre-installed hard disc drive, which allows you to save games as well as download content from the Internet.
- Included in this bundle Metal Gear Solid 4!
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is a next-gen experience complete with top-of-the-line graphics and surround sound designed for the Sony PlayStation 3. Featuring the most revealing display of Kojima Production's premier title, MSG4 details the world where Snake must under go his final mission. In a world overrun by private military companies (PMCs), wars are no longer fought over nations or ideologies. Instead, the wars of the future are micro-managed by overarching PMCs, right down to the bullet. New gadgets and abilities fuel Snake's journey deep into the enemy domains of the Middle East, South America, and beyond. New gear includes "Metal Gear Mk. II," the ultimate reconnaissance tool, and "Solid Eye," which gives Snake real-time information on enemies and his surroundings. Joined by a familiar cast of characters, Snake must once again return to the battlefield to confront his lifelong rival, Liquid Ocelot, who is manipulating the world's wars from the one world where soldiers will always have a place. But Liquid Ocelot is not the only one who will be able to manipulate the world's wars--Snake can destabilize opposing forces by working behind the scenes, supporting the local militia as they fight PMCs, creating a smokescreen that allows Snake to move freely within the war-zone.
- Online
Sony has stated that the PS3 will have similar online connectivity and services as the next generation of Xbox Live. Calling it "an always on, always connected device," SCEI's chief technical officer Masa Chatani said the PS3 would be constantly in touch with a "PlayStation World" network "fundamentally based on community, communication commerce, and content." Technically, the infrastructure is there to make that connection. The PS3 supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T Ethernet, as well as IEEE 802.11 b/g wireless networking protocols.

 PS3, Blu-Ray, Metal Gear Solid. What else do you need. More Games/Movies. October 14, 2008
This system ROCKS. This does not even compare to my old PS2 system. I purchased this to replace my DVD player and PS2. It has far surpassed my expectations as a gaming, music and movie system.
Metal Gear Solid is just awesome. The graphics are just unbelievable, or should that be "to believable." The game play just drags you in and keeps you going. I love the fact that they stick with the same 3D generating with the movies. Not switching to some other rendering of the characters and environment. It keeps the flow of the game smoother.
The PS2 and PS game compatibility is the main reason I went for the 80GB. I did not want to have to keep my PS2 running just to continue playing its games. The wireless controller and virtual memory cards make it much nicer than the PS2 system. Then only draw back is having to get the memory card adapter to move saved games to the PS3.
The Blu-Ray player is sweet. I replaced a SD DVD player. The PS3 does a great job of upconverting DVDs. The bluetooth remote is a must have if you will be watching movies.
I networked it with my PC and have shared my music, movies, and pictures. Works great to listen to music and view pictures.
All said and done it is everything I wanted in one device.
Compatible PS3 80GB October 2, 2008

I'm comparing this Playstation 3 80Gb Metal Gear Solid 4 Pack with the regular Playstation 3 80GB.
This pack comes with 1 dualshock 3 controller, 1 network cable, I ps3 80gb, MGS4, 1 USB, and 1 av cable, Card reader, and 4 USB slots. NOTE: neither both of these come with an HDMI (these are sold seperatly), and the PS3 80GB does not come an a network cable, and only comes with 2 usb slots and not card reader.
This pack was and still a limited release. I got mine sept. 29 2008 at my local wal-mart after buying an 80gb with no card reader. I only got it because i prefer the card reader to be built in and the 4 usb slots for extra controllers.
The big difference is that the MGS4 pack makes a little more noise with its fan than its PS3 80gb. They both give out 1080P HDTV with an HDMI Cable.
The setup is very easy. (Like any harddrive there is only about 78gb out fo the box) Games need to be loaded to the hard drive to work. Any save data can be saved in a usb drive and be easily used in another ps3.
Pros: This one is compatible for 70% of ps2 and 100% for ps1. (The 80gb alone is not), 4 usb slots, and a card reader (the 80gb only gas 2 and no card reader). Plays Blue-Ray, divx, and other types of formats. Can download games via the network cable (the 80gb does not come with a network cable).
Cons: Makes more noise than the regular 80gb. $100 dollars more than the regular. Limited release.

This was a birthday gift for my fiance, and I can tell you that he absolutely loves it. Now as soon as we get Guitar Hero for PS3, I'll be able to enjoy it too! :)

I actually bought this so i could watch movies in Blue-ray, so the game was an extra, after putting the game in to try it out I was hooked the only thing is im not a gamer so im getting used to the controls but it's a lot of fun. The movies in Blue-ray look great on my High Def tv .

So I purchased the ps3 and within 4 weeks I had boot up problems with it as it kept shutting down. I'm far from happy. I was sold a donkey and i'm pissed about it.
