Sony just announced two Hot Shots Golf 5 bundles for Japan. There are 20GB and 60GB versions, going on sale July 26th. Both include Hot Shots Golf 5, which retails for ¥5,980 (US $48.50). The regular open-priced 60GB version retails for around ¥60,000 ($487), and the 20GB version sells for ¥50,000 ($405). However, the Hot Shots Golf 5 60GB will book for ¥61,980 ($503), and the 20GB one for ¥51,980 ($422). Factor in the price of the game, and you've got a default price cut that should entice customers in Japan. But what about North America and Europe, Sony? Brian Ashcraft

I'd imagine they have something "brewing" for us.

Is it Hot Shots Golf 5 or Hot Shots Gol 5? The picture says both.

I think it would be Gol-Go, similar to the name of the manga/anime that's been running since 1969. I expect it's a hugely amusing play on words and a fantastic joke.
