Everyone keep in mind that renewing your PS+ subscription should count toward the $100 as long as you pay for it with funds in your wallet. Mine expires in November so this is great timing for me.

Does anyone know if buying the extended warranty for the PS4 counts as a purchase? I was thinking of buying anyway, but this would make it an easier buy.

The wording of the offer would suggest that if you can buy it with funds from your wallet, it counts. I'm not sure if the warranty is available via the store though, is it?

Hope a GTAV pre-order goes live sometime this month, so far I can only see AC Unity as an upcoming title I want...

The promotion got downgraded, we used to get 10$ back for every 50$, everything is downgraded these days, videogames, promotions etc.. :p

Anyway this sale doesn't help me as I'm only interested in The Evil Within, could be awesome if i could get 10$ back on that.

Shadow of Mordor and Alien: Isolation or The Evil Within. Definitely Shadow of Mordor and there are some indies I need to finally pick up like Rogue Legacy. I bought the inFamous DLC yesterday and wish it would have counted.

Just paid for P4AU :-/.

Getting The Legend of Korra then maybe Driveclub (see how PS+ version is first) and Ground Zeroes during this weeks sale... maybe there is a preorder I can grab to push it over.

I'm guessing the promotion won't go live until 12 pacific huh. I really want to buy mordor right now to start playing!

I was thinking The Evil Within and PS+, but I'm holding out hope that Black Friday will offer cheap subscriptions at Gamestop or something like last year. $30 PS+ would be better than this deal. Rather buy something that's not gonna get discounted so soon. Hmm...

I'll probably hit it, and always nice to get some sort of discount, but previous STACKABLE "Spend 60, Get 10" were glorious.

There is a side tab for buying the warranty when you go in the store. Maybe I'll call Sony once the promo starts and see what they say.

I don´t buy big games digital... but maybe:

Season Pass
The Evil Within: 19,99
Alien Isolation: 29,99
Shadows of Mordor: 24,99
Total: 74,97

Driveclub for 39,99, right?

That´s maybe what I´ll get...
 
Well I'm definitely getting all five Namco Museum games to support classic re-releases. I still need to snag Minecraft on PS4. That's $50. I usually buy AAA games at retail but with DriveClub at $50... Tempting

I've been waiting for this but I was expecting something more along the lines of spend $60 to get $10 back.

So far I have the following planned
Sword art online: Hollow Fragement $40
Atelier Escha & Logy additional character dlc $15
Pier Solar hd $15

So that's $70 of stuff I wanted to buy anyhow the only problem is that I'm not sure what to spend another $30 on :(

I assume this counts regardless of where you make the purchase on the website or the console itself, right?

More importantly, does it count if you redeem PSN credit toward the total?
 
Ugh, I just dropped a bunch of money on pre-orders last week.

Got fucked during the InFamous deal as well.

I never learn.

Hopefully GTAV gets added to the pre-order list, because I'm going to buy that and LBP3.

This promo is not as good as the previous ones, but I need to renew my ps+ anyway, so it's still good.
 
I assume when it says you have to redeem this by December 5th, it means you have to add the $15 code to your account, rather than spend the $15 by December 5th?

If it's past 12 AM Oct. 1st wherever you are in the US go start buying stuff.

I confess when I made the thread at the time I was half asleep (yet managed to progress well in Mordor) so apologies for the mishap that first time

We never get these promotions in the UK yet we pay way more for our games :(

I'm fairly certain GTAV will be listed so it's quite tempting to maybe:

1) Get a free promo of PS+ (or buy one month)
2) Get Driveclub
3) Pre-order GTAV
4) Use $15 towards PES2015

Does that sound right?

Actually, even if GTAV doesn't come up - Uncharted is listed so....

Lucky for you you can just make a US account and buy US PSN cards and get cheaper pricing on games and promotions like these.

Yes, I know - I have bought a few US titles, it would just be nice if we got something like this on the UK store from time to time. The problem I have buying US is it get's a little 'complicated' when DLC comes out remembering which version to get!

It’s fall — the leaves have started falling and huge games like DRIVECLUB and NBA 2K15 are making their way to PlayStation. Starting today, when you pick up a couple of games we’ve got a sweet bonus for you on PlayStation Store — get a $15 credit when you spend more than $100 using your SEN Wallet on PS Store today through October 28th.

Use this opportunity to pick up already released games like Destiny and FIFA 15, or pre-order highly anticipated upcoming titles like DRIVECLUB, NBA 2K15, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Assassin’s Creed Unity, LittleBigPlanet 3, Far Cry 4, Dragon Age: Inquisition, and more. All PS4 and PS3 pre-order titles take advantage of automatic pre-load, allowing you to download your pre-ordered games before the release date so that they are ready to play as soon as they’re released. Check out all the titles available for pre-order and pre-load, in addition to already released games, here.

Take advantage of this deal from October 1st through October 28th and you’ll receive a redemption code for your $15 credit on or before November 7th via email, XMB message on PS3, or system notification on PS4/PS Vita. The redemption code must be redeemed by 11:59PM Pacific on December 5th.

I'll probably have to buy Sword Art Online this month along with maybe Rorona+ and a few games that are on sale atm. But that's IF I want to take this deal..

EDIT:
Question: Does pre-ordering a game count towards this deal? From the looks of a few post, it seems like it does.

But if you are paying full price for ps plus you are already losing out. There are constantly discounts for it through out the year. Not to mention black Friday is coming and it will probably be $30 again

Bummer. Ditto. But if you pre-ordered you did get the $6 color pack :/
