There's no doubt about it: the Dark Lord has had SCEE in a Force Choke this morning. In a move that will surprise absolutely nobody, the European arm of PlayStation managed to cock up the announcement of the PlayStation 4's limited edition Star Wars bundles last night, forgetting to mention that they'll feature 1TB consoles, rather than 500GB.
A change to the text on the European PlayStation Blog confirms that both the Star Wars Battlefront and Disney Infinity 3.0 devices will boast the beefier hard drives, though the writing remains the same on the US PlayStation Blog, meaning that you'll be stuck with 500GB of space overseas. This makes sense, of course, as the 1TB PS4 model is currently only available in the Old World.
How do you feel about this special system now that you've had time to get used to its design? Breathe heavily in the comments section below.

Duck American whine incoming..... Just kidding, not sure why both the old and new world can't have both varieties offered
Where can I preorder this in the UK? Need another ps4 so me and my partner stop arguing over who gets to play it haha
I might pick one up as a spare, it's the Darth Vader & especially the 1TB HDD that's the selling point for me.
The Darth Vader design is good and totally suits a black console. I would have preferred the controller if all the buttons were red not just the circle. I have no intention of buying one though as I already have a console...
@Midget_Sammi I don't think it's up for pre-order just yet. We'll have an article when it is, though.
@gingerfrog
Europe is where PS4 is selling the best so logic would dictate Europe gets all the good stuff. I don't know why Sony hates us in NA though. Looking at the NPDs each month, NA has been on board with the PS4. This isn't last gen when Xbox was smoking PlayStation in the sales battle each month. Start rewarding the consumers here for the support.
@gingerfrog Don't think the standard 1TB PS4 console's out in the US, yet. Whereas EU already has it, so it kinda make sense that they can get 1TB version for this Limited Edition console.
@get2sammyb it is available to preorder at GAME, might even be available at argos and amazon
Eu does not get Flash sales. That's all I'll say. Parity please.
Might actually order this one or the MGS one as a Bday gift to myself.
Does it come with Battlefront?
This is one case where people DO prey they alter it any further.
Why only in Europe? I live in the U.S. and I know I don't just speak for myself when I say that an expanded hard drive would make the ps4 an absolute must to buy this fall.
@A-ROD17_ I agree. There should be 1TB or 2TB available no matter where I live.
