Europe now has a new bundle for the PSP. The Value Pack now includes Daxter for a price of 249 Euros. Also, the Giga Pack has seen a price drop and is now also 249 Euros. The bad news is that the regular Value Pack without Daxter looks like it's being discontinued. Pretty good bundle for Europe seeing as all I ever see bundled here in Canada is MLB or some other cookie-cutter sports game...

The Giga Pack HAS NOT SEEN a price drop in Europe. It still retails for 299 Euros in Germany, France and Spain.

Sometimes I wonder where you guys get your news from. Oh in this case, it seemed to have been a POST ON A RANDOM MESSAGE BOARD. Excellent work.

Did you check in the last few days? The prices launch on April 21st. And I didn't get it from a "Random Message Board." I got the information from NeoGAF. The poster happens to work for a European game magazine.

April 21 was yesterday. And no, the Giga Pack still retails for 299 Euro in all of Europe.

Better verify your sources next time.

whatever magazine that guy works for, he was obviously wrong. It's April 22 and the Giga Pack is 299 Euro still. I haven't even seen the Daxter Bundle in stores as well.

This is complete bull**** there isnt a price drop although in the game shop near me you can buy a giga pack for £160 GBP which has been used about once by the shop manager to test a game

Nope. Not at all. Already got my PSP + Daxter separately. I got Spiderman 2 also.

 » What?

So there is no price drop on the Giga Pack and no Daxter Bundle in Europe. Who got this rumour started?

 » PSP - giga pack IS NOW 249.95 e

PSP GIGA PACK has dropped the price officially in Spain and France:

FRANCE
http://www.jeux-france.com/news15412_le-psp-giga-pack-passe-a-24999-euros.html

SPAIN
-www.game.es
-www.fnac.es
etc (every retailer in Spain has this new price)

I expect other countries in Europe to follow.

The poster of this nnotice on neogaf was right.
