Default Re: PS3, To bundle or not to bundle?

I've never been a fan of bundles- you always get stuff you didn't want and any possible cash savings are negligible at best. I bought my system on its own, no extras. The first few games I bought (RR7, Resistance and Gengi) were bought online and I managed to find an extra controller elsewhere.

Now, I've done a review on both Ridge Racer and Resistance (just submitted Resistance for proofreading yesterday) and I thought both of those were good, probably the best of the 1st day launch titles. I won't give away my scores here but I will say they were very favorable.

As for the others, I'm not a football fan but I have seen good stuff said about Madden, as i have with Fight Night (not much for boxing either so I won't be getting it). Dark Kingdom turned out to be somewhat mediocre as action/RPG/dungeon crawlers go and Gundam, all I could say when seeing it in action was "WTF happened"?

Need For Speed would probably be good as a racing game but the whole street racing bit has been done to death- I preferred RR7. Tiger is a good golf game but they didn't put as many courses in as its counterparts on other consoles. I'm patiently waiting for the next Hot Shots Golf- i prefer golf games that don't take themselves overly seriously (plus you can only take Gary McCord and David Feherty for so long).

Full Auto 2, I may happen to be getting for Christmas (either it or Blazing Angels). From what i have seen elsewhere Full Auto is decent but moves a bit too fast at times- could have still used some improvement.
