Ghost of Sparta special edition PSP isn't a PSPgo photo

It seems these days that every PSP game released needs to have its own special bundle with a uniquely themed PSP system. It also seems that Sony has well and truly given up on the PSPgo, since these bundles are only ever for PSP-3000s.

Yep, God of War: Ghost of Sparta is getting a special bundle, and once more, PSPgo fans (all five of 'em) are left out in the cold. 

Here's what you'll get once you trade your PSPgo in for the God of War: Ghost of Sparta bundle:

  • Black-and-red PSP 3000
  • Ghost of Sparta UMD
  • Chains of Olympus PSN voucher
  • Kick Ass UMD movie
  • 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo

God of War: Ghost of Sparta bundle will hit North American stores on November 2, with no word yet of whether or not it's arriving elsewhere.

That is one kick-ass PSP (pun partially intended). I may even consider grabbing this bundle instead of the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep bundle.

Also, did anyone expect any different? As much as I wanted to love the GO, it just hasn't received enough support, or a fair enough price, for me to consider it.

Wow... that's a seriously good bundle. My only dispute is that it's a UMD as opposed to download.

I had no idea they were actively still making them anymore.

All I gotta say about this is "They still make UMD movies?"

Nice little bundle. The black and red is not my style, but I have a friend who might like this.

So if you actually use the voucher, it's really just a 1GB Memory Stick. Why not UMD GoW:CoO too? WHY NOT?!

Cool-looking PSP though.

I laughed hard at this.

Hey guys, since they are not making a bundle, that means the PSPGo is dead, right?

Right?

PSPGo was dead before it was announced. Good idea, bad application.

This looks like a sweet bundle. I really like the two tone color scheme of the PSP 3000. The size of the memroy stick is not attractive through, it would be nicer to get a 4GB card, but it's a start. Getting GoW: GoS, GoW: CoO and Kick Ass is absolutely awesome. Why is SONY releasing so many of these bundles? Are they trying to generate more sales? These bundles feel like they are two years two late and the console is about 5 secs away from exctinction. Are they going to be announcing a PSP/Sony Ericsson/ Android console around the corner? The PSP2 sounds like it's a long time away from the articles that I've read. It seems to be a waste of money to buy this when they might be coming out with something soon.

Two games? That's an awesome deal.

The download voucher is kinda crap though. I'd rather have a UMD.

This is perhaps the best PSP bundle by far.

Sweet bundle. The red and black is pretty bitchin'. Almost makes me regret my Big Boss Bundle camo PSP.

Almost.

Journalist: PSP Go is an abysmall failure, you should just give up.
Sony: We want to give this a try, here are some free games, please give it a chance.
Journalist: PSP isn't an iPhone you cunts, I don't like it because I can't get games for free and $.99 on sale is far too expensive for me.
Sony: No, really, just please give it a shot. Lots of people seem to enjoy it, we have pretty decent feedback. I swear it's good, here, just touch it.
Journalist: Ha ha ha, look at sales. PSP Go is failure because of things and stuff and $8 tetris..
Sony: You know what? Fine, fuck it, we give up. Here's the going out deals, get em while you can because NOTHING makes you fuckers happy. NOTHING, you sad burned out jaded fucks deserve to die, you hear me? Die!
Journalist: Hahaha Sony gave up on PSP Go, it sure is failure, I called it long before and I are smart and stuff, Angry Birds!

Man, there's nothing wrong with my launch PSP, but this is a really tempting bundle.

Oh hey look there's a couple of tiny, almost invisible scratches on my screen. Time to buy a new PSP.

This looks like a very good bundle. You get Ghost of Sparta and Kick-Ass the Movie. Its a real value.

You also get a voucher to download Chains of Olympus. The PSP itself looks disgusting but the system bundled with both God of War games is still a great deal. if I didn't already own a PSP and Chains of Olympus I would be pretty damn tempted by this bundle.

Snazzy. Not straight gangsta like the Chains of Olympus PSP but not bad.

I prefer my silver PSP to that one, it looks a little tacky in the above image. But that's a pretty impressive bundle - now is probably the time to get one if you haven't yet.

Looks great as a bundle but the PSP itself looks fucking terrible.

Wouldn't it make more sense for the "Ghost of Sparta" (a God of War themed PSP...) to be White and Red?

I got a code from SONY in my email today for a Ghost of Sparta download voacher. The subject line reads: You've been tapped for the all-new God of War demo. Has anyone else gotten this?
