PS Vita price war hots up as Amazon reduces its price

Now £209.99 including a free 8GB memory card.

As the February 22 UK launch of PlayStation Vita gets ever nearer the retailer price war on the new handheld is really beginning to hot up.

After trumping the competition with a £220 WiFi PS Vita bundle including an 8GB memory card, online giant Amazon has improved the deal to better the likes of Play.com.

For £209.99 you get a WiFi PS Vita and an 8GB memory card. There's also the option to throw in a selected game for £15 - Rayman and Lumines look like good options.

The only downside to Amazon's bundle is the lack of a PS Vita pre-order pack, which includes some blue headphones and a £5 voucher redeemable against Little Deviants, Super Stardust Delta, Hustle Kings or Escape Plan. If you fancy this then Play.com might be a better option for only a £3 premium.

You'll find the bundle over on Amazon.co.uk.

PS Vita launches in the UK on February 22.
