Just saw this on Neogaf. Apparently the listing of Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation bundle does now no longer include a 4GB memory card.

Sony have either deliberately removed the memory card, made a mistake or... A price drop is incoming :shock:

I wouldn't be surprised if Sony is setting themself up for epic ownage .:P

Knowing Sony? It's a stealth removal. It's really ridiculous, since the Memory Card being included is what made the bundle such an attractive prospect in the first place.

Hopefully they include the 32GB memcard. 4GB is nothing.

Also I love how one of the pictures is called 'vitadoomed'

Obviously there's a price drop incoming, no one is stupid enough to think that $100 is an ok price for 32GB of storage. However, with the amount of effort Sony's putting into the digital nature of the device, I wouldn't be surprised if they just scrap the 4GB card.

Probably trying to cut corner to drive the cost down to as low as possible, in order to produce a price drop.

Speaking of the 4gb memory card, it's completely useless.

It's a high profile game and will sell for more money, so it's natural to remove the card as the bundle will sell without it, i'm not a business man and even i know this. Expensive games sell for more money so selling it at the same price as the other bundles is not necessary as it will sell regardless of a 4GB card. They'll do the same with the CoD bundle.

*laughs hard* you paid 430 dollars for a handheld system...you paid 430 dollars over half of the ps3 console when it was first released....and 99 or so dollars of that was for a memory card that is outstripped in speed, price, and size by micro sd cards...

*opens door to system wars* leave this is system wars, its what goes on here. Cows do it, lemmings do it, sheep do it, and so do hermits. It happens we make fun of people that we perceive as making moronic purchase decisions...Its been done to me, its been likely done to you, and its being done to him.

Maybe software sales are so bad on the young platform that they don't have confidence releasing it at $299? My guess is the AC spin off will be $50 like Uncharted was. I can get a 16GB USB/SD for $15-$20 in any big retailer, so considering those products are sold at triple what they cost to make (assuming) then why couldn't Sony add $5 to the Vita for internal storage?

I can see it now. "Sony announces PS Vita price drop and an ambassador program where early adopters receive the honorable privilege of the option of playing PS One classics on their PS Vita (with additional charges per each PS One classic bought)" Also i'd love to see Jack Tretton, Kaz and big execs to take 20%-50% pay cuts to apologize for the price drop like Iwata and company did.

:lol:

omitting ragnarok every single game you lsited is on another platform and in some cases is better than the version you would be buying on vita. strangers wrath will likely be on sale for less than FIVE BUCKS on steam at the end of this month WITH REVISED VISUALS as one example

stealth move sony already announced no price cut, but they're still going to ship a minimum amount of these bundles. Why? because sony are the worst when it comes to logic
