The third PSP redesign is now available in retail stores across the US and the rest of North America. The first PSP Brite pack, which is out now starting today, is the silver
Ratchet & Clank bundle. It's a Silver PSP with a copy of
Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters, a
National Treasure 2 UMD movie, 1GB memory stick and an online download voucher for
echochrome. The price remains the same as the older bundles at MSRB $199.99.
If you're looking for that other bundle which is the black PSP Brite with the 4GB memory stick, you'll still have to wait for next month in order to get that. The silver pack will be available in all European countries except the UK a day later on October 15. EU countries will also have to wait for the black bundle in November.

I really dont understand why Sony would post a title that is more than a year old (almost 2 years infact) now as a package. Same with god of war. They make the package months later, why not release them at the same time? Thats sony for you

I guess because Sony doesn't really have anything new to bundle the new PSP with. Their fall hardware bundle was with Madden, of all things

Just in case anyone cares, Amazon is running a lightning deal beginning at right now for the PSP madden pack for $170 with free shipping... So if you were looking for a good deal on a 2000 instead of a 3000 then you better jump on that...

According to some sources, there will be only a single game in European bundles (no memory card, UMD movie or anything else), and the price will still be €199. We always pay more, get less, and later than others. Is that fair?

XD I already picked mine up. Gotta love the latest and greatest. Although, I honestly think my favorite part is the NON GLOSS FINISH. Jesus christ. I was so OCD about fingerprints with my madden PSP...and now I don't have to worry about that anymore.

I have a black PSP phat and was planning to get a new PSP soon.. but my two brothers have PSP Slims, Piano Black and Silver, and I wanted to get a different color. I might end up picking this one though..
@Konstantine: Where did you get it from, and did it come with firmware 5.00 installed?

Sadly no, it didn't. Comes with 4.2 I believe. I haven't toyed with the new options much, just watched the Crisis Core opening...And man did it look awesome.
I got it from GameStop...Considering I work there >.

Ah, okay, Thanks.
I might end up getting it tomorrow then. Firmware 5.00 should be out by then, I guess.

I'm torn between getting a PSP Brite or the blue Madden PSP, since blue is my color. But I wouldn't mind a brighter screen. I could care less about Ratchet & Clank and National Treasure 2. The silver PSP does look mighty nice though.
I really wish Sony released the PSP as stand alone consoles instead of in bundles. Or at least give us some better color choices.

I've bought 3 PSP's, only one was in a bundle. So I don't know where you live but there's always non-bundled PSP's available here in the US. You could always import one?

I live in the US.
What I mean is that they have silver PSP out but it only comes in a bundle same with the blue PSP. I understand the red GoW PSP and the white Star Wars PSPs since those had the images on them. But why not release the sliver or blue PSPs alone instead of with a game. The only stand only PSPs come in black and I don't want a black one. I have thought about importing since the color choices are 10 times better. But it'll be a be last resort since the prices are a little bit of a turn off for me.
