Hmmm... not sure if this is real or not.

Me personally, I'd rather have the 80G MGS bundle given a choice.


GTA IV 40GB PlayStation 3 bundle surfaces in Europe

If you're still licking your lips while gazing at that limited edition GTA IV Xbox 360 Elite, you may have the opportunity to make your GTA-branded console ownership dreams come true in a slightly different manner. Out of seemingly nowhere, a Grand Theft Auto IV PlayStation 3 bundle has popped up on a Swedish retailer's website, offering a 40GB PS3, a copy of the game, a decorated box and little else (DualShock 3?). Judging by the package art, we're guessing there's no suave paint job waiting on either side, and Webhallen has the unit priced at 4,499 SEK (or about $755). Before you ask -- there's no telling whether this thing is headed stateside or not, but surely Sony / Rockstar Games wouldn't let such a moneymaker swim around the US of A, right?

That would also sell like hot cakes...

But like you said, it could also just be a fake.

I'm just going to point out that the artwork in question on the box has never been released. There are variations of it, but the artwork specifically on the box has never been seen prior to this image.

So I take it this would indicate that the rumor is quite possibly true?

Possibly. I have seen all the press images released for GTA IV, and haven't seen that version of the Box Art before (which is what's on that box).

Just ought of curiosity I went to their website to check it out. Here's the link:

WEBHALLEN.com

It's in the language of the Dutch so I'm not gonna guess what it says.

You probably get a refurbished ps3 and a store-bought copy of the game...weak.

That doesn't make a lick of sense.
