In Japan, the Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker PSP bundle is straight-up awesome.  They get the game, a camouflage microfiber cloth for cleaning your screen, a numbered PSP stand, a leather PSP case, a set of dog tags, and an exclusive camouflage PSP-3000.  In America, it won’t quite reach the status of “straight-up awesome”; more like “satisfactorily cool.”

Here in the states, the $199.99 bundle will come with a PSP-3000 in a brand new color; “Spirited Green,”  Sadly, there will be no camouflage at all in the bundle, as a UMD copy of Peace Walker, a 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo, and vouchers for exclusive in-game items and an as-of-yet unidentified downloadable movie will make up the bundle’s contents.  The bundle is set to arrive on June 8, the same day as the game itself.

Perhaps most interesting is the fact that this brand new game is coming bundled with the PSP-3000, and not the PSP Go.  Apparently, Sony is still working out the details on the maligned handheld’s relaunch, keeping it from being part of the bundle for one of the platform’s most anticipated titles.
