Sony pushing PSP-3000; offers 2 free titles.

[War]

"SCEE has just confirmed to Siliconera that two new platinum PSP bundles will retail in Europe, details of which are as follows:

PSP 3000 bundle: £149.99 with 2 x platinum games free of charge

PSP 2000 bundle: £139.99 with 2 x platinum games for £10 (RRP of PSP 2000 solus is £129.99)

Specific titles were not mentioned, but a quick check on the USK has ratings for “PSP Platinum Bundle: Lemmings + LocoRoco” and “PSP Platinum Bundle: Tekken: Dark Resurrection + Ridge Racer 2?. Unfortunately SCEE did not confirm when these bundles are due to go on sale, but it’s a pretty safe assumption that it will be in time for the Christmas holiday period. The 3000 bundle looks particularly appealing, with this model of PSP housing a sharper screen display. Now there’s just the matter of figuring out how to trade in a worn old model for this bundle… "

It sounds like a good deal, but I think Sony are trying to sell off defective stock this way.
Sales probably bombed after the news of the screen having interlacing problems, even with the great initial sales.

uhm, the people who get a psp from a bundle like that.
those are new psp's.
for the 3000 100% chance it can't be hacked yet, for the 2000 about 80%.
