earlier this week, we got our hands on a few european gamestop listings for 250gb ps3 bundles. earlier today, scee and sce uk confirmed the hardware packages and included games. earlier this hour, we went to whole foods and purchased some really crisp bok choy. (sorry. we got into a rhythm there.)

europeans will have their choice of two bundles, both of which will be made available throughout october. one of the collections includes need for speed: shift, while the other includes fifa 10. needless to say, both bundles come with the recently gb-boosted console. a price point for these two bundles has not been specified, but we've contacted sony for clarification.

bizarrely enough, the uk's getting a different set of bundles than the rest of the continent. on october 1, united kingdomites will have their choice of a 250gb ps3 bundled with infamous or two unnamed platinum hits. their options will be further expanded on october 16 with the release of an uncharted 2 bundle, and once more on october 19 with a bundle that includes the x-men origins: wolverine and the dark knight films on blu-ray and a film-friendly remote control.

sce uk has graciously provided a price for its bundles -- £284.99 ($450) -- making it our certified favourite european sony chapter of the day. that's as legit as being knighted by the queen, you know.250gb ps3 slim bundles also coming to europe originally appeared on joystiq on fri, 25 sep 2009 13:01:00 est. please see our terms for use of feeds.
