Let me know one of those deals that’s available now. Thanks!

3543

I typically post this kind of stuff in the Bargain Topic unless we get a holiday specific one. These kind of deals do well out though. The Google Express Wish 20 sold out of their top things… but Google Express might do something like it again. They’re kind of newish to the Holiday game.

Via Cheapassgamer, $48 with free shipping by an eBay seller.

Woops, forgot this was a PS4 thread. That seller’s not discounting the PS4 version.

Some online servers are shutting down soon. Drawn to Death, Infamous Second Son and Sound Shapes. These were all PS+ games awhile back. Sound Shapes has a lot of really cool community made levels.

PS4 – Drawn to Death

Multiplayer and all online features for this product will be terminated and no longer available from 25th March 2019 . As you have to be online to play this title, this game will no longer be playable as of the same date.

PS4, PS3, PS Vita – Sound Shapes

Online features for Sound Shapes will no longer be playable from 31st January 2019 at 07:00am GMT . Functionality will be affected in the following ways:

  • You will be able to play the campaign and all DLC purchases as well as create your own levels.
  • You will not be able to share your levels with the community or download community created levels.

PS4 – InFAMOUS Second Son

On 16th December 2018 at 00:01am GMT , the web-based puzzle portions of InFAMOUS Paper Trail will be shutting down. The InFAMOUS Paper Trail PlayStation 4 missions will continue to function within InFAMOUS Second Son, so you’ll still be able to complete Celia’s story.

New PS4 Pro model is out, runs much quieter. Also runs hotter, but presumably their manufacturing techniques are sufficiently mature that they can run their chip hotter without downclocking. Need the RDR2 bundle to get it for now.

3548

Hm, I didn’t think my Pro was noisy. Not compared to the launch PS4, anyway. Clicks, whirs, and blowing like a 360 trying to play from a DVD.

3549

Was gonna ask if my RDR2 bundle was that model, thanks!
Also will comment that the console is whisper quiet at 7 feet away.

3550

The box should be labaled CUH-72xx, to confirm it.

3551

I asked this in the PS4 pro thread yesterday, but got no response…is the regular (not the new one) PS4 pro that much louder than a slim? Rather, if I want something quiet, go for the slim?

3552

I don’t own one, but from the eurogamer article it sounds (sic) like the release PS4 Pro is not only somewhat loud but the fans rev up erratically, which can be distracting. That said you don’t have to worry about it because the new revision fixes all that.

3553

Yeah, but I want quiet and have no interest in RDR. Also not feeling the need to spend a bunch of money on capability I have no particular use for. I’d like to get a slim for 199 like we saw the other day, but want to be able to make an informed decision if there’s a great deal on a pro.

3554

That bundle should be fairly easy to get, everyone is carrying it. Any deals on the pro will be harder. Keep an eye out for those.

3555

Yeah, I’m going to need to find one online, but hoping Amazon will have, since others will. Going to a physical store isn’t going to be an option.

3556

The other stores, Target, BB, Walmart, assuming you are US, should have them online too. I used to do the line thing in person for BF. I still might, but I’ve been mostly online for a few years now. I kind of missing the gloves, the hot chocolate and just chatting with fellow shoppers though.

3557

I thought this myself when I saw this news pop up on my feed this morning - my own Pro is very quiet, I only hear it spin up sometimes when it wakes from sleep and even then it’s quiet again by the time I’m playing something. I do wish my cat would stop laying across the back of it, where the hot air vents, I keep having to shoo him off there while I Red Dead.

3558

Do you press R1 to study the cat before shooing him?

3559

I think that as long as you don’t have the first regular PS4 model, you’re okay noise-wise.

I never really thought about the noise the Pro makes before reading this, but the old model was plenty loud.

3560

Nice! Just confirmed that my PS4 Pro is one of the new revisions. I didn’t get any blowback for getting this so I doubled down and got myself an HDR TV. Man, what a difference it makes!

3561

All right folks, here it is. I know some of you think I just… make things up, but no, this is not my first rodeo.
