it'll be boxed in a way that says when you can open it to save yourself
Thought: Sony typically does price cuts/promos/slim models in the fall. Spider Man is their biggest fall release that's exclusive so,...
Could we see $199 PS4 slim or even a super slim on September 7th, a la PS4 slim suddenly releasing Sept 14, 2016?
Idk if AMD would have a 7nm version of their APU ready, maybe 12nm? Or just a price cut on slim?
I think a $199 Slim/$349 Pro model would work well for the end of 2018.
I don't see what the 1Tb has to do with it. That was meant to increase the value at $299 in 2017. A whole year later they'll need something to increase $300 value again or drop pricenah, remember the base ps4 is now the one with 1TB HDD. so i expect at best a $300 1TB Slim Spider-Man bundle and a $400 Pro Spider-Man Bundle.
then $50 off each by the holidays

I don't see what those links have to do with anything. I already knew it was $299. What were you trying to communicate?Funny timing

The PS4 stills sells greatly at 300$ so with the insane line up in the next 6 months I don't see any incentive to drop the price.
If you have been following Sony's sales what they will like do is bundle the unit with any of the hottest games releasing this year while keeping the same price tag.
kinda hard to wait on amazon still so i ordered the CE at bestbuy. They already took the money from the card, i assume they are only verifying the credit correct? they pull the funds upon shipment?
thanks, i hope amazon uploads their page / listing soon so that ppl that want it there can also order.

Obviously they don't have to cut anything. I was just wondering if they'll use the fall lineup to get extra profit via a super slim model (which would be designed to be profitable at a lower msrp) or if they'd cut the price on the slim.
Considering they were willing to sell the 1TB slim for $250 in June 2017 (gold too) and for $199 Black Friday 2017, it would indicate to me that they probably pay closer to $200 to make each unit since they have the flexibility to make less money on limited time deals. Considering the $199 BF deal was probably bought by close to a million consumers (guessing but it's probably more than the $249 deal last June) then I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do that if they were losing money.
I imagine they'd break even, more or less, at $199. They're not gonna lose $20-$50 per unit for 500k-1M Black Friday buyers so that makes me think they make $50 or more per $299 sale
Just saying, they could probably still make a profit at $249 and stop sales from slowing during a period when they traditionally do and they could probably reduce costs by making a super slim and still profit at $199/$249
Top loading drive (like they do), smaller APU, smaller case, maybe fewer RAM modules on the board (I think there is 8 now?) could help bring costs down idk
I ramble quite a bit often, it's cool!
For $150 I don't expect a very nice statue in all honesty. So hiding it is just more worrying.
I just preordered from GameStop (regretfully) because I can't be bothered to refresh for two days in a row. I'll get it if I'm awake/around when it goes live but at least I have one if I can't get it in time.Ugh...Amazon is really dropping the ball here. Absolutely ridiculous, I can't remember the last time they were this delayed on getting something updated / available.
I know. Do they hate money?Ugh...Amazon is really dropping the ball here. Absolutely ridiculous, I can't remember the last time they were this delayed on getting something updated / available.
I'd buy an edition without the statue for $80 or so. I have too much junk on my shelves already.
Also too bad the preorder stuff only comes with either the collector's edition or the digital deluxe. The DLC could be mediocre and I'm not paying 25% more for a digital copy vs physical.
Wait all the DLC can be unlocked? For free?You won't be missing out on anything, as far as I am aware, all the the preorder dlc can be unlocked in the game. Plus most retailers where I am seem to be offering the same dlc with the standard editions, not sure if this is the same where you are at.
Regarding the story chapters, I think it was James that confirmed this. This content is developed independently from the main game. So kind of like a season pass of sorts but don't think it was actually confirmed as being 'the' season pass if this makes any sense =p

I don't know what's going on with amazon. The CE is still unavailable for pre order.
It's annoying, I've been staying up later than usual in case it goes up late. I'd use Best Buy but the nearest one closed and Gamestop is a hassle.I don't know what's going on with amazon. The CE is still unavailable for pre order.

Gentle Giant makes excellent staues Im not worried at all.
Example
I was kind of hoping for a limited edition PS4 pro that was red with the white spider, but oh well.
E3 hasn't even passed yet, if there are price cuts, they aren't going to announce the console beforehand at a higher MSRP.I am shocked their isnt a PS4 Pro decked out with a Spiderman theme. I assumed this would have been a clear choice for them given how big this is going to be.
if there's a special console I think it will be unveiled a bit closer to releaseI am shocked their isnt a PS4 Pro decked out with a Spiderman theme. I assumed this would have been a clear choice for them given how big this is going to be.
If there's gonna be one it will be announced quite close to release. God of War's was revealed like 45 days before release.I am shocked their isnt a PS4 Pro decked out with a Spiderman theme. I assumed this would have been a clear choice for them given how big this is going to be.

I'm not sure we've said. I'm being careful about what I say given the story-stuff contained underneath Spider-Man that we are hiding.
It's a substantial statue though :)
It will be available in Canada, not sure on exact specifics.
Man i saw this thread bumped and ran to amazon, still nothing, wtf is going on over there?
Tons of EU countries have it up. Gamestop has it in Ireland, some of Scandinavia, France had it up.
I expect others to have their retailers getting it up in the coming days.
If you're in NA and still waiting, I highly recommend you check with Best Buy and GameStop, which both currently still have stock of the Collector's Edition.
