Bonkers Amazon.com PSN Deals

anyone in canada bought one of these codes, and do they work without having to make a US account?

i know i can do that workaround, but would like everything linked to my main account if possible

It all worked for me with my CDN PSN account.

Just make sure you have a US address on Amazon.

Not sure where to ask this but I'm annoyed, this music unlimited that I never ever subscribed to is charging me ten dollars so it took my upgrade money without my consent. I checked my purchase history and this is the second month it took money from me. Can someone provide a link or something for a refund on this because I never even opened this app so I'm confused why I've been charged.

I think there's a trial available in the store that automatically enables auto renew so technically you could sub to the service without ever opening the app.

Douchebag. Yes, me.
Sly Cooper for PS3 and a free Vita version thrown in for $10.

The All Digital Future that Steam has shown us PC gamers has now graced the console audience.

I can't wait to watch Gamestop go out of business. It's going to be so fun to watch them slowly die.

10 for both?

So...how does the upgrade to PS4 system work?

I just bought the AC4 digital code for PS3, and, when I go to the online store to AC4, it still says $59.99
 
Trying to show restraint. This happened to me so much last gen. I dont have time to play all of these games but they are awesome deals. Usually by the time I get around to them they are that price anyways. I already have Knack, CoD, NFS, and KZ on PS4 (not to mention I play ResoGun more than anything). I think I will do the BF4 and upgrade deal. I dont want one of those crazy Steam backlog scenarios ha

My Amazon US account got frozen, probably because my card is UK but I used my US Unlocked address. I have to fax them credit card statements, but my card is all online (ironically issued by Amazon UK). Not sure I can be bothered, might just start a new account and add funds to my US unlocked card.

Panic over it appears they have opened my US Account back and the sale has gone through.

OK guys, trick question

How do I know which games give me the $5 dollar credit?

I bought AC4 and I received confirmation of the credit, then I bought Splinter Cell, got it at 25-5 (previous credit), but I have yet to receive it's corresponding $5

i think that if you use the credit on a purchase you don't get another 5 dollars. At least that's what happened to me. i got nba and got 5 dollars and used that towards ACIV and didn't get another 5 bucks
 
Just a warning. Dont buy cod ghosts unless you have a PS3. Apperently you HAVE to download it on a PS3 first before you can upgrade on PS4. Just wasted $40 on nothing.. :(

Did it redeem or maybe you can sell it to someone that was going to do it anyways?
Hate if you wasted money
 
Digital BF4 can be played on 2 ps3s (game sharing). With the upgrade, it can be played on 2 ps4s, correct? Does a ps4 upgrade remove a ps3 slot?

Making sure the games are all ready for play later in the evening. I forgot how annoying it is to register new consoles with every third party publisher's stupid system :|

On the bright side I'm getting really good with the DS4's motion input text or whatever it's called.
 
Another great deal. Must have. From slickdeals

Amazon.com has Rayman Legends (Wii U, Xbox 360, PS3) on sale for $24.99. Shipping is free with Prime (free student accounts available) or if you spend $35 or more. Thanks pipe & DarrenO3829

Amazon.com has Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix (PS3) on sale for $19.99.

Will be $10 cheaper in 7 hours.


Wait a sec the season pass will not transfer to PS4 will it?


Wait the deal hasn't started yet? I thought it was 9:00 AM eST? Nice ! I don't suppose I could put it in my cart now? And check out with the discount at 9:00 could I ?

If anyone's planning on buying Assassin's Creed IV for PS3, I have a phantom slot (one-time install) for $5.67. PM me if there's any interest!

Is the battlefield premium version worth it?

$75 vs $25...

Though to justify the premium version.

Probably isn't worth it, in the sense of buying it right now as part of this deal. It's just the season pass at it's regular price bundled with the on-sale core game. You're not actually saving anything extra on Premium.

Sort of, but it's not exactly like the PS3 DRM scheme. You get one "Primary" system and one guest system per PSN account. The primary system gets full rights just like a PS3 activation slot (any account can launch your games even while the system is offline) while the guest system is basically any other system you log into. Only you can launch the games on the guest system and you must be online to do so.

The PS4 DRM sits outside the PS3 slots so you don't have to worry about a PS4 taking up a PS3 slot.
 
Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy, Gamestop...

They all need to get into this PSN digital code storefront thing. This is looking promising for digital sales in the future on consoles.

That $10 that came with the console will finally get used to upgrade ACIV to PS4.

So BF4 will be $25 on the ps3 and $35 on the ps4 correct? How do you upgrade to ps4 if you don't have the ps3 disk?

Redeem the code in PSN then go on PS4 to the store page of the PS3 game you bought and it should show that it is only $10.

I did it on the PSN website store on my PC. It worked.

I had to log in into my ps3 psn and redeem the code that amazon sent me. I had to start dling the game on ps3, so the upgrade on ps4 became avaliable xD

If I use my UK card to buy some of these I assume my bank will be the ones who carry out the $ to £ conversion?
 
Apparently, this doesn't work with Russian cards :(
Tried 2 different ones with US billing address. It sits forever at "Your order is being processed" page and then my order gets cancelled.
Tried using amazon gift card, thinking it will skip card checking process. Nope, same result.
And now I have 50$ on my amazon account that I can't use. Great.

Guys, should I take a risk on AC4 PS4?

Enjoyed AC2 despite its flaws, hated AC3....interested in the setting for AC4...

I'm thinking I should do this, should I do this? Is there any way AC4 will be on PS4 for lower than $40 anytime soon?

EDIT: just copped it...can't really complain about getting this for $40
 
What are the odds the supposed PS4 version of GTA will have that $10 upgrade option? I'd buy just for that down the road savings.

I think by the time they release that version, it'll probably be an Ultimate edition with DLC, so it won't be upgrade eligible.

That's also what I suspect will happen with the rumored The Last of Us PS4 version.

I'm from EU so is it enough to just change the adress on Amazon or do i need to have US billing adress as it is stated on the website...?

Had this problem earlier, it takes 30mins to an hour for the game to pop up in your downloads list and allows you to buy the upgrade for it. Just wait and you'll be fine.

I had no issues upgrading earlier today. Try logging out and relogging, I've seen some people mention doing that in this thread.

Thanks! Just went through

I guess my $5 credit automatically will apply to my next digital order?

Sly Cooper digital codes apply only to PS3 or Vita versions right? If I buy the PS3 code I don't get the Vita version correct?
