That was Black Friday week only. Arguably the $249 BF2 bundle is a better deal depending on if you have an interest in that game.

The $199 BF deal was still better(especially at GameStop where they gave away $50 GC with PS4 purchase). BF2 is only $39.99 this week at Wal-Mart and GameStop.

So the $249 bundle is a better deal for basically nobody.

Even at $40 its only a bit less of a value than most retailers on Black Friday except the ones giving out extras. So its still going to sell a lot.

Amazon is already selling the BF2 PS4 for $249 and we already know from ad leaks that other retailers will sell the Battlefront 2 bundle for $249 next week too so I guess this is "slim" price cut.
Why are you working so hard to sell this to us? 🤔

You wouldn't care if this was an Xbox deal.

They can easily win because of mindshare (Timmy wants a PS4 because his friends have one, etc.), though. It's a snowball effect and the same thing happened last gen with X360. I do agree 199 is the sweet spot, though.
Please take your crappy projecting elsewhere, thanks. I've never even seen an equivalent Xbox thread for you to make a comparison about.

Just now there is a "free PUBG with every 1X sold" thread and your reaction was quite different over there.
If you're not interested in the PS4 deal then that's cool, but the rest of us don't need your salty drive-by shit posting.

You're projecting extremely hard here and it's hilarious how oblivious you are about that, but I'll bite. I enjoy dismantling bullshit.
So, these posts that precede my post (literally right above my post btw) are not shitposting:
But my post is? Sounds like you have an agenda. And my reaction in the other PUBG thread that's talking about a FREE gift, saying "nice, but how is it sent?" literally has no correlation here, so not sure why you bring it up. Then again, seeing that your recent posts are talking about Microsoft not helping matters by promoting PUBG, I guess you have a bone to pick or something.

If those people had a consistent history of shit-posting in Sony threads then I would agree.

Damn, i woulda made my brothers upgrade their ps3s if it was 200$ again
Thanks for that, I was thinking about that sort of amount but I didn't have anything to base it on.

Fair enough request. I know I shouldn't bite but I get frustrated when I see the same thing over and over. I'll keep my mouth shut next time instead of getting involved.
Yeah I don't know for sure, but I doubt Sony would be losing money at $199, but probably only just. I figure they're happy to drop the margins on the hardware sales if it means a few million extra people possibly buying software on their platform.

What?! I totally bought mine from Gamestop during the BF deal and they never said shit about a free gift card. They just gave me my PS4 and sent me on my way.

Thought this said PS4 PRO at first and just about freaked. Oh well.

If this were the Pro, I'd bite.
But $249 vs. $189? Dang, I know Sony's electronic entertainment division has to carry the company in a financial sense, but this is ridiculous. The Slim should be $199, straight up.
