Brits not getting MGS4 Gunmetal PS3 Bundle

Just recently, Konami announced the MGS4 PS3 gunmetal bundle coming to North America. However Konami have now said this bundle will not be arriving on british shores. This is a real disappointment for people living in the UK because they have been excluded from a fantastic bundle, even if it still doesnt include the DualShock 3.
Sony! Give us vibration!!

Yeah man that sucks you guys get shafted a lot. At least you guys got a real PS3 launch. If the US PS3 launch went as well as it did in EU, then it wouldnt have had such a rough start.
I dont understand why they just wont bundle dualshocks with consoles for the UK/EU? I really think its to milk your better economy for all they can.
For US our economy is so bad, that people arent willing to spend the money on a console and then a controller to replace the one that comes with the console.

You hit it right on the head. It is all about the economy and the tariffs that exist in EU/UK. Sony does that to make up for the cost of entering the market out there and to take advantage of the great conversion rate.
