New Uncharted/Ratchet PS3 Starter Pack Coming Tomorrow in Europe?

A new PS3 starter pack may well be on its way tomorrow in Europe. Not only that, but the pack's release may have significance for rumble in Europe.

The picture you see to the right has turned up, showing off a bundled in copy of Uncharted: Drakes Fortune and Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, along with two controllers. Spanish website Meristation.com reports that the pack will hit shops tomorrow for €499.99 (£371.40).

[IamTheStorm81]

Wow, now that's a bundle. Two of the best games this generation packed in with the system is incredible, and anybody remotely interested in the PS3 should jump on that bundle, post haste.

[THE_JUDGE]

does smile on Europe!

[meepmoopmeep]

two amazing games right off the hop when you get that ps3... but i don't regret buying those two games.. money well spent

[gta_cb]

nice bundle :) better then what i got lol.
i got Uncharted and Smackdown vs Raw 2008 with mine

[ygxbrayzie]

wow that's a really nice bundle me want...
but is that suppose to be a new...i mean anything can be approved...

[Chris Brown]

This bundle was out at beginning of january in sweden

[kira989]

WHY DID I HAVE TO GET A PS3 WHEN I DID!!!!!!

Thats awesome!!

[Valin]

When they have a

PS3 80GB bundled with 2 Duelshock 3 controllers, Play TV and RFOM:2 and GT5 As soon as that hits at 599 i'll buy it.

[Tecra_X]

My advice, don't hold your breath!

[THE_JUDGE]

hold it, your being greedy.

[crck]

Resistance 2 will be an M rated game. I doubt it will ever be included in a bundle.

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

2 controllers is possible, 2 games, a bit too much, but let's say possible... But PlayTV? Are you kidding me right?

[mighty_douche]

Great pack! 2 games to show why you should own a PS3. Plus ones great fro the kids, the other for the more mature.

[Sez]

so sony has to bundle these two games to boost sales of Rachet& blank and unwanted. just sad.
just wanted to get that off my chest.

@below.
ooh. did i hurt your poor wittle feeling. please show me a reliable site that has uncharted at over a million. i know you are using vgchart as a reliable source.but vgchart overtracked games like uncharted,UT3, and other games for the ps3. and undertracked games like COD4,AC and others for the 360.

[Da360sucks]

Uncharted: Drakes Fortune
sold a million already
so fu@k off
go back and play that sorry ass 360

[kurochi]

people like vega75 is exactly why people should use contraceptives while having sex.

Just to throw something back at you in regard to your comment, I can say:

wow, so not only do MS have to bundle Halo 3, they also have to push a special addition of their console out so that they can boost sales?

[rofldings]

And where exactly do you get your "accurate" sales data from Vega? Your ass?

And last I checked, M$ was bundling two games (Viva Pinata and Forza 2) to move consoles.

[Sez]

dude you are a perfect reason why your mother should have swollowed.
halo sold better without a bundle so your point is moot. again show me a reliable source other than vgchart to prove uncharted sold over a million. did sony anounce it or maybe the dev's themselves.

@above. forza2 sold over a million without a bundle.

[heyheyhey]

"just sad" is a perfect way to describe yourself

it is sad to say things like "unwanted" when your clearly haven't played the games yourself

they are both excellent games- i hope that one day people like can manage to squeeze their head from under their asses and play great games like Uncharted

n4g has changed, maybe you should too

[rofldings]

And? Motorstorm and Uncharted sold 1 million without a bundle.

[Da360sucks]

this is going 2 sell
off the hook

[Frances-the-Mute]

why Europe!? why!? thats it! I'll probably move to Europe after college cuz they have it all......rave parties, Rammstein concerts, melodic death metal, lower crime rates, and PS3s with awesome bundles!

[coolfool]

You still have at least a choice of a console with BC!!

But, yeah, Rammstein are good.........you got me there.

[eagle21]

get it!!!

[PStriple703]

nice bundle

[heyheyhey]

oh man i would love that bundle, but i guess its too late

i got a decent bundle anyway- Resistance and Motorstorm

this will surely drive the hardware sales up- those are two excellent games

i know this will never happen, but if they did a PS3+MGS4 bundle- the sales would go off the charts

[CAPS LOCK]

But it is a bit silly giving 2 controllers when both games are 1 player...I would buy it though IF it was £350 without any hesitation...I really want a ps3...

[mighty_douche]

obviously not enough to drop another £21.40...

But i agree with the 2 pads, bit strange.

[HowarthsNJ]

That's how it is with me anyway.

Nothing more annoying than a dead battery in the middle of a fire fight :-)

[AceLuby]

Exactly what I was thinking. 2 controllers for 2 single player games. hmmm.... go figure.

[LaChance]

360 should do the same and get a new bundle , forza and viva pinata are getting old.Good way to boost Ratchet and clank sales.

[vloeistof]

i know 5 people here who are going to buy over here .

[whoelse]

This would sell well in America and England!

[desolationstorm]

Why Europe and why two controllers? I dont see the point of including two controllers when both of the games you give them dont have multiplayer. Great package and if this was in the states at a good price Id jump on it.

I have always said I was waiting on another big game, a price cut or rumble pack in controller. If Ive waited this long there is no reason for me to own a system without a rumble controller.

[Tecra_X]

Thats why Sony continues to include 2 controllers!

[KILLERAPP]

This just the beginning.

[Luca Blight]

well, I suggested that they release an Action bundle where you could buy a PS3 packaged with either Ratchet or Uncharted - pretty close though.

[Shankle]

Hate to burst your bubble but loads of people were suggesting it. They are the best PS3 exclusives available by a long way.

[Gina-get-u]

If this bundle comes to the US the two games packed in are very tempting indeed. But no dual shock and no 80gb/bc kills it for me. When that deal shows up, then.

[QuackPot]

If you have 50 Ps2 games you WILL HAVE a ps2 already....BC is moot.

If you want to buy Ps2 games then buy a cheap as new Ps2. Jeez.

Sony is still making money with the Ps2 sales. We were lucky to get BC on the release machine.

[Shankle]

Hell, I want to get one of the new micro ps2's they're bringing out in the spring just because it should be brilliant for taking to college. Just keep it in my bag and play on it during breaks :D

[coolfool]

Why is there still a question mark at the title? Did the statement not include a date? If not, why not? And why are we guessing at tomorrow? (I'm not saying it won't be out, just asking the question of how we came to that conclusion....).

[Snukadaman]

its the only title that has reached a million in North America...cant hurt.

[JIN KAZAMA]

for the PleaseFixMe. I know of so many PleaseFixMe owners that are buying PS3's now. In the end, they all come back home huh.

PLAY B3YOND

[carl ps3]

shame no rumble pads yet? glad i got mine last month(from japan) ;-P got two now ;) +shame there are no more PS3's(in U.K)that are PS2 B/C :-(
my 60GB PS3 is o.k with PS2 games, but sum games Stutter like mad!
:-/

[rofldings]

My NTSC 60gb PS3 sends its condolences to its gutted PAL brother. :(

[Iamback]

Instead of one more bundle they should lover price for us Europeans.
Do you guys even know how much is 500 euros? Its like 900 dollars.
I am not trying to be negative, it will most likely sell, but if Sony really wants to boost sales of PS3 even more, than lower price for us Europeans.

[Bill Gates]

If true, this will be one sweet bundle for Europe.

[Bill Gates]

You see BABOONS, now this is a bundle. A bundle of leve for EU, not a bundle of RROD like the ones M$ gives you BABOONS.....AHAHAHAhAahHa

[Iamback]

you should have said this to "gamer zone", here are 9 out of 10 folks that love PS3

[OpiZA]

Very smart move

[gamesblow]

Resistance has sold over 2 million worldwide
Motorstorm has sold over 2 million worldwide
Uncharted has sold over 1.3 million worldwide
Call of duty 4 has sold over 2 million worldwide

I can go on. You people claiming these games are tanking on the ps3 are grossly miss informed.

R&C will sell well over 2 million by this christmas. Bank it. Heavenly Sword is almost at a million. These games are selling, even more so on a modest install base up to now.

[rofldings]

Don't forget Assassin's, that is at 2 million now on PS3.

Also PES 08 and FIFA on PS3 have sold over a million.

NFS: PS is hovering under a million at (.95 million) and Burnout should hit a million soon enough.

PS3's doing just fine. And this year, it'll be doing "just fine plus infinity to the infinite power" :)

[Iamback]

@gamesblow

yes games are selling but in EUROPE! Thanks to Europe/others those numbers are that high.We have to admit that so far Ratchet and Uncharted have under perfomed in US chartz

[Qbanboi]

What's the point of putting 2 sixaxis on a pack with games what aren't miltiplayers. They should had put, RFOM instead of R&C.

[kevin1122]

lol, did you use all your bubbles on one comment?

[rofldings]

wtf, how'd you go from 5 to 9 bubbles?

[Pika-pie]

Thats an awesome deal. Damn, why did I buy my PS3 so damn early... ahh well.

[Sez]

then i guess EU most of brought most of the copies of unwanted. because it didn't make any best seller list out of any month here in NA or in JP same as R&C,HS,ect.

[FiveShot Bandit]

How is it a bad thing that they are packing in 2 controllers? It is my belief that all consoles should come bundled with two controllers. I remember my SNES came with 2 controllers and a game....

[AshleyRiot]

2 of the best games to come out in 2007 bundled looks like win/win to me.

[Salvadore]

I would like to see a bundle where Warhawk and Uncharted are bundled.

[LaChance]

Europpens buy all the games the american and the japanese dont want , they are the only ones who were happy to pay 600 euros for a console that was realy unappealing ( in 2007 that is ).But sony still treats them like crap , they got the PS3 Last and th most expensiivé

[resistance100]

Im sorry but

'who were happy to pay 600 euros for a console that was realy unappealing'

So a Next gen console, blu-ray player (were £900 (1,175euros) at the time, wifi, free internet and resistance, motorstorm and Virtua Fighter 5 wasn't appealing?

[sephy 9 2 5]

I mean damn after maybe the third repost you'd stop...

[Drekken]

Hold that thought, I will break out the violin.

[Columbo]

If this is true, and the bundle comes to America, I can guarantee I would buy it this weekend. Here's to hoping!

[Columbo]

Stupid double post. sorry

[Monty_The_Great]

of both games, and beaten both. Anyone in EU who was maybe thinking of getting a PS3, this is the one you should buy. IMO easily the 2 best games on the PS3. People are saying RFOM or Motorstorm, have both of these also, Uncharted and R&C are way better. I think I have beaten R&C 10 times now, and it is more fun now than it was when I first beat it. Uncharted, I mean what can you say, just a beautiful, and super fun game. Like I said before, anyone thinking of getting a PS3, get this one.

[ScottEFresh]

Vega can you please stop typing? I know your bored because your waiting for your 360 to get back from the repair shops at M$ headquarters but just stop.

Hey guys my name is Vega look at me I think I'm clever because I take PS3 exclusive game names and twist them to sound childish and juvenile. I'll try it with 360 exclusives...Project Gotham Faking 4, Gaylo3, Biolack, Mass Deffect, Ass Combat 6: Liberation and how could we forget about Kingdom of Fire : Circle of crap.

[GodsHand]

OMG, Gaylo3, I've been wanting that game soooooo, bad.

Is it as gay as part one, and two?

If my PS3, ever gets the RROD, i'll trade it in for a x360. Why do they call it a x360? Does it just go around in circles?

[heyheyhey]

dont forget queers of war and sh!t rising

[Sez]

stop typing because I'm waiting for my 360. yeah what ever help you sleep good my friend. my 360 works fine. since the day i brought it.(dec 13 2005) what are you talking about waiting. when you sonyfanboy do more waiting for game to come out. only for them to be delayed.
like i said before unwanted because no one in NA or JP wants it like that. the only long legs these two games have is to bundle them with the console. it hasn't made any ist for best selling game or top ten list except for EU.

wait beyond. lmfao

[Sez]

double post.

[KingKirchner]

awesome bundle. Those are by far my 2 favorite PS3 exclusives. I was just playing R&C not even 30 minutes ago (and FINALLY got the RYNO IV) and it's such an incredible game that you'll want to play through so many times to level up all your weapons. Uncharted is just...amazing. Everything about the game is near perfect.

If this bundle came to America, I bet they'd get a nice boost in sales here too. Any Europeans who don't have a PS3 yet, get this bundle!

[SSCOOLCHEA]

everybody gets off in here just bashing games they never even touch .

[midgard229]

now thats amazing, not crappy like the 360 bundle, forza and marvel lol. these a real games, not to mention 2 dual shock 3's

[mintaro]

omg, that is an awesome deal, if it's coming to canada, it'll be an instant purchase

[jorellpogi]

Wow, this bundle is hard to resist. Very tempting indeed. Hope they will release it in asia.

[Coke-a-Cola]

.

[Lord_Ash]

I'm sending this link to all my friends who didn't buy a PS3 yet, cause thats a good deal.

[Le-mo]

Bring the bundle to the U.S. and I'll buy it.

[Figboy]

Uncharted and Ratchet are two of the best games i played on the PS3 last year.

the extra controller is a no brainer: there are quite a few PSN games, from Calling All Cars, to flOw, to Warhawk, that support two players, either on the same screen, or via split-screen.

a purchaser of this bundle will get home, play some Uncharted and Ratchet, and their significant other/family member/kid, will probably want to play with them as well. they set up PSN accounts, check out the Playstation Store, and find quite a few games that support two players. no need to run out to the store and buy another controller.

sure, they "give" a controller away, but they'll probably make more than the controllers cost back in PSN purchases.

that's just the way i see it, though.

[timmyp53]

too bad i already bought ps3.

[feejo]

Oh great idea Sony, it just miss 2 rumbble and a low price, but you are on the right track. Hope it get to USA with 40gb at 399$.

[TheMONKofPUNK]

You guys serious? Don't you shop around? Right now HMV are doing the PS3 with 2 games of your choice (R&C and Uncharted if you so wish) AND 2 Blu-ray movies AND an hdmi cable for £349 ($700).

So, why is this bundle so special again? Less for more methinks.....
