‘member those PS3 bundles leaked yesterday? Yeah, we found some images making the leak just a tad more official showing the two new 80GB options – along with Sony’s announcement so yeah, they are now official. The Gran Turismo 5 Prologue edition is going to carry a 39,980 yen price tag ($397USD), while the LittleBigPlanet Bundle will run a bit higher at 44,980 yen ($446USD). The little extra cake for the LBP flavor gives you three color options – black, silver, or white – for the PS3 as well as two Dualshock controllers. Still no word on US availability, but I know of a few gamers that would love to one of those sexy, white PS3s.
