Forums - Sony - Rumor: Sony readying “massive PlayStation 4 bundle” for Black Friday

Higher sales does not necessarily mean more profit. Especially on black Friday when there are so many big deals, profit margins would be small. Also Knack is not a system seller. 

*slaps MoHasanie*

Taking the first post seriously was bad enough already, but this is just too much.

haha, wow, I can't believe I thought you were being serious. I must be very very tired right now...

Microsoft's Xbox One is looking like a lost cause.

You're acting like it wasn't one before...

Just referencing the thread that goes by the same name to cyber-bully kowenicki a little bit.

Stop bullying Kowen! It will get me banned again.

Never been a fan of forced bundles.

Give me a cheaper price on hardware and let me pick something to buy. Maybe I bite for $300.



Unfortunately, I don't think Sony will do anything too spectacular. They're more focused on making the PS4 profitable now, as opposed to MS, who are focused on reducing their sales disadvantage.

Sony will probably release a few bundles, and maybe a promotion here and there over the next few weeks. But we won't see anything like what MS will offer.

Its already too late MS has momentum. Sony has lost the US by allowing MS to start November 2014 with a bang!

Pretty easy for MS to counter this. Free MCC for anyone buying on Black Friday week.

People respond more to actual price drops rather than bundles, it's been that way for ages.

Nintendo had $150 GameCube w/free Metroid Prime or Mario Sunshine or Animal Crossing for ages, but then they dropped the free game and cut the price of the console to $99.99 and that caused a far larger hardware bump.

People are kinda stupid. They just look at the lower price.


Yeah so  easy for Ms to counter ps4,  they have been so successful all year. ....  

Agreed!



But Sony doesn't have 3 good first party exclusives

inFamous, TLOUR and ? might be an interesting bundle. If they want it to be their top metascoring 1st party retail releases the ? will have to be MLB the Show. Otherwise you're looking at Shadowfall or Driveclub.

If it's PS4 + 3 games for $399 you can afford for the 3rd game to be a bit of a dud I suppose. Not that 71 and 73 are dud metascores. After all I keep saying 70+ is a good game.

I will tell again...

GTA V + TLOUR + Destiny @ $399

Killer bunduru.
