That ultra-limited edition MGS4 gunmetal grey PS3, that's so limited only Japan and US are getting it? Well, Korea's getting it now, too.
So, living in what we thought was one of the three major videogaming territories in the world, we have to ask the question: Where's the love, Sony?
According to Kotaku, the slick MGS4 bundle, which contains an awesome, grey 40GB PS3 with the game and a DualShock 3 controller, will be made available to Korean gamers.
No luck for us lot though, as Sony is yet to include Europe in the party.
No-doubt they'll turn up on eBay with insane Buy It Now price tags, so you could import one - PS3 games are region-free, remember. Trouble is, Blu-Ray films are region locked, so you're buggered there.
Meanwhile, if you didn't get your name down for a special edition version of the game that will be sold here - which comes with an action figure and other special goodies - you might be too late. Play has stopped taking pre-orders on the exclusive pack, with only the standard version up for grabs.

Please update your main page, the "Buy" button re-appeared this morning and I did with the buying, as of 14:45pm it's still there.
My outstanding orders page confirms I have pre-ordered it.

Thank you very very much for that tip dude, I've just pre-ordered it too. BRILLIANT! I was in a massive sulk all weekend due to them taking the option to pre-order it down, before I decided to take the plunge.
Its frankly a joke, we should stop buying their products until we get fair treatment.
Your Bill Gates, right? Come on, admit it...
Come on Mark, you have to admit, Sony take the p**s out us (Europe) even though we're Sony's 2nd biggest market. It would be a good if all of Europe boycotted them but realistically, thats never gonna happen, so they'll just keep taking the p**s.
Yeah but if we DID boycott them they would never sell the Isle of Wight sized pile of Sixaxis they have and we will never get DS3...
True but then again maybe Sony need to cut their losses on the sixaxis, it was an awful idea and how they ever thought it was a good concept is beyond me. They should take back all the unsold sixaxis and dimantle them to make DS3s instead. If thats at all possible.

you know, i was thinking that yesterday, ther has got to be at least 50% that they could re-use out of the Sixaxis, hell i'd even give them mine back for £5-£10 off a DS3. The analogue sensors and bluetooth card have got to be re-useable at least
