Well without a picture in amazon.com a lot of people will not even know the existence of this deal. Sony is doing great deals lately but the communication about these deals sucks.

I have always been a bit confused by the Sony marketing machine. They do not always make decisions I personally understand. Sometimes I feel they succeed despite themselves. This is a deal that should certainly be advertised. Although because of the way Amazon operates (as big as they have become they still struggle with control over accurate listings) their listings I am not sure what to make of the lack of information on this bundle. I would certainly think this is a bundle you would want the word out on. They are obviously much smarter than I so who I am to question. But yet I do. ;)


I have an outlandish theory on what's happening.  I think Sony wants to market the bargain consumers.  You know the Slickdeals.net customers to combat the Xbox One deals; however,  I don't think they want these deals heavily publicized as they don't want to devalue the PS4 to the masses. As long as they are selling enough to this target, which appears to work, it's is getting them free publicity/advertisment on pages like Slickdeals/Fatwallet/etc.

This oddity seems too inconsistent to be random.

Technically that's a weaker deal than the previous, cause Shadow of mordor has lost some value and has been on sale for 30 dollars, while 1 year of PS+ has been 50 dollars for a long time.. still might interest certain people more though.



PS4 #7
XB1 #14
The Order #22
Infamous #39


are we starting to see a bump in PS4 sales from the order?

loving the infamous legs btw. almost a year since its been released and its still charting.

The Order is now #19, sweet. The box art for that game, like everything else for the game really, is beautiful. I hope reviewers review this like they're supposed to, put all their bias aside.


Not a chance. This game will probably have very divisive reviews.

When you see that some reviewers already advised not to pre-order the game (when they only played an old demo) you can guess what kind of score they'll give the final game...

In this specific case I think it's just the amazon deals doing the bump (first 1 year of plus, now Shadow of mordor).

But The Order already bumped it. remember the post I linked a few days back http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=150833828&postcount=821

Sounds pretty good considering it's one person in one store and over 2 weeks before release.

I think this month e are going to se at least a ps4 2:1 x1 disprity in the US. Just have a feeling. Also for next month. And the ps4 winning the hollidays or matching the x1. The the hollidays thing is just from the snowball effect that will be pushed by the massacre all these exclusives, better multyplats and maybe pricecut will do.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Ps4 dominance incoming. Order will start it.
