Sony Bundles up Metal-Blue PSP for Madden

May 21, 2008 By Nick Mokey

Madden 09 will get its own PSP bundle, including a metallic blue PSP, when it's released late this summer.

If PSPs decked out with graphics from Star Wars, Spiderman, and God of War haven’t tickled your sports-loving fancy, perhaps Sony’s latest attempt, a Madden-themed system, will be just the ticket. Sony announced on Wednesday that the August release of Madden 09 on PSP will bring with it its own PSP bundle with a metallic-blue PSP and other goodies.

The package will include the special-edition PSP system, a copy of Madden NFL 09, a voucher to download Beats for free from the PlayStation store, a 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo card, and the movie NFL: In Just One Play on Universal Media Disc. The movie, hosted by NFL receiver Chad Johnson, showcases legends including Randy Moss, Reggie Wayne, Larry Fitzgerald, and more.

When it’s released on August 12, the bundle will sell for $199.99, which Sony claims is $60 cheaper than buying up each piece separately.

jeff at 10:04pm 21st May 2008 I would buy it to save the $60, I could care less about the color. I also like that it comes with more memory.
Tim Stevens at 4:48pm 21st May 2008 Do they actually sell many of these custom PSP/Gameboy units like this?

$60 saving for the bundle is significant, but not enough for me to buy another PSP.
