Peace Walker Sneaks Away from PSP Go

As further evidence to how poorly the PSP Go is doing, the newly announced Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker bundle will contain a PSP - 3000 rather than it's diminutive, and (inexplicably) more expensive, cousin: the PSP Go.

As detailed by the Playstation Blog, the new "Limited Edition Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker PSP Entertainment Pack" will launch on June 8th, alongside the standalone game, and include a "Spirited Green" PSP system, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (on UMD, hmmm...) PSN voucher for free DLC, PSn voucher for free movie download, and a 2gig memory stick pro duo for a retail price of $199. For those of you that don't feel like doing math, that whole bundle clocks in at $50 less than a standalone PSP Go. Maybe the fact that you can get a system, game, extra content, movie and 2GB memory stick for $50 less has something to do with the fact that the Go has been dropped by several retailers. You think? Sony? Hello? Oh take your fingers out of your ears...
