Forums - Gaming - Another Insane PS4 Bundle (UK)

The black friday bundle was actually 279. Gamestop IS out of stock, but their deal was 299 with DC and TLoU and wasn't a BF bundle.

Say, what do you suppose retailers do when there is heavy demand and not enough supply?
I'll make it short. They create massive bundles. The same thing happened at launch, everywhere was sold out except gamestop which had ps4 for 499 with 2 games of their choice.
Yes, you save 20$, but you also could have saved 40 by simply buying the game you wanted in the first place. Retailers do this because they know that stock everywhere is limited and they make the most off of selling games. That's why large game bundles exist..to push the sales of unecessary games onto the consumer.

Whatever, I'm done here though. I'm clearly getting the feeling like u guys are getting all worked up about this. Go buy it then.


I can't find the 299 deal anywhere in stock regardless, so it wouldn't help me if it had existed at one point. I don't care about this deal, I live in Norway, but you can't say this isn't a good deal just because the DC bundle, which is out of stock, + individual games was a better one, simply because you can't get a DC bundle anywhere*

 

*On the UK cites I checked, you probably can find some, somewhere at retail, or perhaps some store I haven't heard of.

You could probably just scroll up to where i posted a screenshot??



Wow, that's a lot of games! Sony and MS seem to be fiercely competing with each for the UK market. I didn't expect Sony to be so competitive since they are beating Xbox is every other country except America right now.

You mean the one where it says that there's only 1 left in stock? 1.

What will you give me when I post links showing in-stock on your wall in a few days?

Also, when shopping I used that bundle because it was the only white one I can find. 299 pound with destiny and tlou are readily available and in-stock on amazon.uk.

Just not in white.

The inbetweeners 2, LoL. Only in England. A bloody good deal though.

Don't know why there's an argument. It's really not that insane.
Compare this to the American GTA5+Last of us bundle for 329.... that's 209 pounds.

There's just not much value in there. Now, if it was 399 and pick 5 games, now that would be a great deal.

This is the UK and it's an insane deal.


He must have been joking because GTAV+TLOUR bundle was never $329.

Also we have to take account of the fact that US prices don't include local sales taxes but UK prices do include VAT.

They are literally giving games away with ps4, it seems. A slap in the face for everyone who bought a ps4 for the normal price.

Eww that takes us all back.

I just did another basket with all the games and the movie for 420, with just the standard pre-holiday 299 price and no bundle whatsoever.
it's 15 for the movie.
Everything new in box and retail price. 20 pound savings isn't anything to sneeze at, but really at most it's just a free copy of that movie.
