CoD WW2 for $40 is going to be gone gone gone by the time I get there. Like I said, last Black Friday, Best Buy’s games on sale were all gone by the time I leisurely made my way there Friday afternoon. Their Wolfenstein 2 price is even below Target’s. Only $25 instead of $30.

Also I’ve never seen Nintendo games discounted for Black Friday before. Mario Kart 7 for $20? I thought Mario games all perpetually stayed at full price for years?

Mario Kart 7 is the 6 year old 3DS game, so you weren’t wrong :)

I’ll be all over that $25 Wolfenstein 2 if they’re offering up a PC version as well.

I still can’t believe Need For Speed Payback will be $35 at all these places. I just want to reiterate that this game isn’t even out yet.

Have you seen the reviews ? There’s a reason based on the one eurogamer posted today.

No, but I’ll go look now. I didn’t know reviews were out. Though the Target ad leaked at this weekend, before any reviews, so they had this planned.

By the way I noticed just now on the Best Buy list: Sniper Elite 4 for $15. I really enjoyed watching Tom play that one. None of the Sniper games were on my radar before that. $15 seems like a great price for that one.

brigador just got another update (on top of the beefy Up-Armored update) that adds some more pilots, missions, cheevos, and horns.

Online is the way to go for Best Buy BF games. Been doing it for years, never had an availability problem.

Forgive me if already mentioned, but if you’re a PSN Plus member, the newly released Horizon Zero Dawn expansion is on sale for 14.99 (regular 19.99).

Man, is the PS4 Pro not going to drop at all?

I’m sure there will be a sale around thanksgiving, or at least a nice bundle.

The Target, Best Buy, and Walmart BF sale circulars are out, and no Pro deals to be seen. I think I saw a game bundle at a higher price point in the UK via Eurogamer, but not seeing much in that regard in the States.

Sony appears to be pushing the Slim and leaving the Pro for aspirational buyers and gadget freaks.

That’s what I’m afraid of. That Sony is going to keep its “premium product” at a premium price. Instead of trying to gut the sales of the XBOX by making its direct competitor cheaper, they will point at the existing $100 difference as enough of an incentive for “similar” performance for the 4K TV owners, while aggressively targeting the mass market with the Slim.

Not that I don’t understand the strategy, but I was counting on the Pro dropping at least $50. :(

Yeah. I was hoping for a PS4 Pro price cut or bundle this holiday season. Oh well. Maybe I’ll buy a switch instead.

I don’t really follow console stuff much, but there are usually a handful of console exclusives I’d like to play. I’d hate getting an inferior that may go obsolete a lot sooner. I don’t have a 4K TV and probably wouldn’t get one unless my current 1080P one goes belly up. It’s a 47’’ Samsung that I’ve had for around 10 years,

So, what type of user needs the PS4 Pro vs one of the cheaper models? Would I just be better off waiting for the Pro version to get cheaper down the line? I mean, it’s gotta drop at some point. While I’m generally a pretty impatient person, I don’t needs a PS4 or Switch - I would just like to play some of the games at some point.

Subjective caveat here, but if you don’t have a 4K TV—I would argue you need a 4K TV with HDR10—I don’t think the Pro will be worth the $150-200 difference over the Slim (BF prices).

That depends on your price sensitivity. I would never even consider buying anything other than a XboneX or PS4 Pro myself.

Me, too. Especially when the usual difference between PS4s is $100. Double that, though, and I think it’s going to make a lot of folks waiver.

A $200 PS4 on Black Friday will be just fine for you. I wouldn’t wait for sales on the others personally. You’re not going to notice the difference since you haven’t lived on these consoles for awhile before now and you’ll have a nice library of awesome games to play on the current box for a lot less money.

Uncharted 4, Bloodborne, Horizon: Zero Dawn… these are beautiful games with or without the Pro.
