Amazon goes down: Metal Gear Solid 4/Playstation 3 bundle to blame?

Amazon’s site has been down off and on today, completely out of service. The company’s been mum on the topic, but it went down shortly after the Playstation 3/Metal Gear Solid 4 bundle the fans have been drooling over went on sale. Gamers in the PS3 forums have been speculating that the demand for the bundle is at fault.

It makes sense that the fanboys would be all trying to get their orders in, as there are only a limited amount of units rumored to be available. The game is going to be one of the hottest of the year, despite the 15 hour load time and 54 hours worth of cut scenes.

Until we get official word from Amazon, which might never happen, we’ll never know for sure, but it sure sounds like something that could happen when fanboys get into a tizzy.
