European buyers who are looking for a PlayStation 3 will have a new choice of the Heavy Rain bundle, which is set to arrive February 23rd. While some of our sources suggest that the Heavy Rain PS3 bundle might be for France only, some of our other sources tell us that it will be available in other European markets, as well, which is what we think will actually happen.

The PS3 Heavy Rain bundle contains the 250GB slim version of the PS3 as well as one controller and, of course, the Heavy Rain title. We also are hearing of possible bundles for both God of War III and MAG that are expected for the European market. The expected cost is about $500 USD. Sources tell us that Sony has not yet made a decision on which (if any) bundles it will be putting into the pipeline in the North American market, but our sources suggest we should see an announcement at some point next week.
