No price cut in Europe, but high value pack launched. SCEE earlier this morning announced the launch of a new value ‘Start Pack’, comprising a PS3, two first party games and two Sixaxis controllers.


Available with immediate effect, priced at Euro 599 (£425), the two titles available in the pack will vary from country to country, but are likely to mainly comprise Resistance: Fall Of Man and Motorstorm.

SCEE has chosen not to adopt a similar strategy to the US, which has cut the price of the 60GB version by $100, at the same time introducing an 80GB model. The saving offered by the Starter Pack, however, equates to around £115.
