That's what I'm kinda holding out for and just see what comes up Friday. If there's no good deals I'll probably just get my current one fixed. I would jump all over the $199 deal but since I already have 2/3 of the games it's kinda pointless.

There's currently a deal for a PS4 slim with Last of Us, God of War, and Horizon Zero Dawn for $199. I already own Last of Us and Horizon Zero Dawn.

I don't really want to just wait until next year when PS5 comes out but can't decide if it's worth it to drop $199 right now or take the chance on getting it fixed for slightly less. Anyone know any other potential black friday deals for a PS4?

there's a ps4 bundle with cod:mw for $300 and the ps4 slim bundle that you mentioned.

i have a related situation: i got my switch bundle with minecraft and i was gonna return the game, without a receipt to walmart, to see if i can get a gift card to buy another game i'd actually play.

does that work? or are games in a bundle somehow non-returnable by their barcode?

iowatreat · 11-25-2019, 03:48 PM

My guess is they wouldn't let you return games that were a part of a bundle but idk. If that's allowed I think I'd definitely do the $199 deal.

It's Walmart so it might because they're dumb

I mean I was able to return the game to Wal-Mart last year. I got the $200 ps4 slim with RDR2 and returned the game for $60 back. Also sold the ps4 for $200 on Craigslist and got a Pro instead.

See how the order is itemized. On my order the game was separate line item so I could return it. I did that with fallout 76 with a bonus gift box. The box was a separate line item for $0 so I kept it and returned the game.

PS4 Pro with CoD for $255 with Groupon select.

But Iowa should be able to fix his with a wipe. Just back your data up on to a USB drive.

or you could just buy a used PS4 for like 60 bucks and download Fortnite, which is free. You would save money and be playing a better game

nepg · 11-25-2019, 08:11 PM

The point is he can get the Pro and probably recoup $60 for the game.

CoD and Fortnite are both trash games for trash people.

KCJ58 · 11-25-2019, 08:13 PM

One mans trash is another mans video game

iowatreat · 11-25-2019, 08:31 PM

The $199 deal through Walmart includes Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War as download copies, only Last of Us is the actual disc copy. It's also branded as the "Only on Playstation" bundle and when ordering online it only shows up as one item, so might have to look at that further if I have to.

I've tried this several times and still get the same error when I reload a game and start playing. All internet research points to an issue with the hard drive itself mainly because it's old (like 5 years old). Most likely it needs to be replaced but not sure.

I'd go X/X-2. X is the best game of the three X-2 is a perfectly fine game if you forget that Yuna is the Yuna from the first game.

(unpopular take warning)
The mechanics in X-2 are actually very good. Building a character in X-2 is similar to the way they did it in FFV which I really like

Splat · 12-14-2019, 03:59 PM

The Outer Worlds is getting DLC and I'm pretty freaking happy about it.

Played the originals, bought both new editions. I would go x x2 first. More bang for your buck and more traditional jrpg feel.

Plus neither are pricey i imagine.

So I’m years behind but got my kids the switch. Love playing ultimate super smash brothers even though I have no idea what I’m doing.

Switch is amazing, best console I've had since the 360
