Ok, there are three (3) reviews before this one and none of them talk about the Pack. So I will do my best here. First of all, the real color of the PSP is not the green represented in the picture. The picture shows a light green PSP and it's actually more a DARK Green! It looks great. IMO it looks a lot better than the picture in the box. Soon I will upload pictures! Now, nobody seems to care about this next issue I found: THE PACK INCLUDES Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker without the UMD CASE, I mean, THERE ARE NO BOX COVER ART in this package. For me it's a disadvantage 'cause I like the box art design. So, if having the UMD Case w/ Art you should avoid this one and buy a Core Pack PSP and the Peace Walker game separately. I just learned to live w/ the pain... =( This PSP Entertainment Pack also includes a Memory Stick Pro Duo of 2GB (you'll need more than 2GB if you want to put videos and music on - Peace Walker has the option to install game data to faster the loading times and it takes about 800MB) and two vouchers: one is for downloading items for the game (stealth gun and a FOX T-Shirt) and another to download "2012" Movie at Wide Screen Standard Resolution - 480p (which can be transferred to the PS3 if you connect your PSP via USB once you downloaded the movie - I don't know if you can put the code into the PSN in the PS3, I guess you can).
I have to say that the GameStop exclusive Big Boss Pack is a much better deal than this one since it includes a 4GB Memory Stick Pro Duo (not just 2GB) and a Peace Walker Branded accessory kit (which includes a carrying case for the PSP) for the same price. I didn't get that one because I don't like the camouflaged PSP. And after seeing the real green color of the Peace Walker Entertainment Pack and more than happy w/ it and I don't regret it!
The Peace Walker game by itself makes the PSP a greater system. It's really a Metal Gear Solid Game! It continues the story after Portable Ops events but it's more a sequel of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (which is great). The Dialogues, the scenes, the story... everything is there, in a pocket size! Peace Walker uses the RPG elements introduced in Portable Ops but expand them a lot more. If you like MGS series, you'll love this one. If you don't like / know MGS Series, YOU SHOULD TRY this one. It's really good! Personally, I'm having more fun than MGS4 game (I don't mean METAL GEAR ONLINE). The only weak point of the game is the Missing INFRASTRUCTURE mode for ONLINE Co-op / Vs. It's just Ad-Hoc. I have heard that you can link your PSP trough a PS3 via Ad-Hoc Party mode and play online, but I don't know how to do it and I haven't seen it in the instruction manual yet! Ad-Hoc Co-op is great: smooth and straight forward. You don't need a lot of tech knowledge to host/join a game. It's just great! 4/5 for the game (-1 for the missing infrastructure mode - I really miss it, even Portable Ops has it).
The other details that is not covered are the one for the PSP 3000, which you can find in others reviews around the web. This Pack doesn't include a new PSP, it's just a Green Colored PSP 3000.
I recommend this Pack for those who don't like the Camouflaged PACK (or don't like to buy in GameStop).I really like the color and for now (Amazon.com always lowers the games' prices), you can save about 20 bucks (PSP core-$170, MGS:PW-$39.99, and MemStick 2GB- about $7? = ~$217! I didn't count the "2012" movie because, honestly, who thinks this movie is a deal maker?! I mean, the movie is not that good and it's not HD either! So I'm seeing it as a welcome addition more than a deal maker! ;) I hope this helps! I will update the review if I find any other relevant thing!Get more detail about Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker Entertainment Pack.
