re: PS4 Release Thread: Kill Launch App #Driveclub due October 2014!!!

TRU has the PS4 in stock online, but they're all in bundles that are $600+ with games I don't want. Such bullshit.

Are the games returnable separately? Can't see why they wouldn't be

Well, I know TRU usually does have each line item separately, but with my luck, this would be the one time where it would be listed as "PS4 bundle" and not separate items.

I think it would work - - it's not like they're actually bundled together. I went to read the fine print but found they're already sold out anyway

Oops, my mistake. It's not TRU, it's Gamestop. TRU does have bundles, but they're out of stock.

And Gamestop's site says they don't accept returns from bundles unless you return the whole bundle.

Oh yeah, GameStop sucks balls with their return policy (and everything else). But you already knew that.

Wait. You'll find a PS4 soon enough

Yeah, well I'm certainly not going to spend $600+ for a bundle which has a bunch of crap I don't want.

Maybe Best Buy will have some next week since they are featuring the PS4 in the ad for this coming Sunday.
Several people on CAG said their BB stores did have them in stock but were holding them for Sunday.

I saw 4 PS4s at TRU the other day which I thought was odd. If they're forcing bundles on people then that might be why they were still sitting there.

I saw a palate full of PS4's at Costco the other day, but they were $489 bundles with an extra controller and a year of PS+

I traded in an old iPad to Best Buy, and they said they would be getting PS4s in tomorrow, but it's first come first serve, and that if I wanted one I should be outside the store early. My store credit from the trade in doesn't expire, so I'm debating standing in line tomorrow or just waiting until they're readily available.

Was it a first gen? If so, how much did you get?

Third gen, I got $200, which was about $20 more than Gazelle was offering.

Thanks. I have a 1st gen (possibly 2nd) that's been sitting on the shelf collecting dust for at least 6 months. I need to start looking into what I can get for it before it's worth nothing (which may already be the case).

You blew it. Target gave $200 (I think) a month or so ago even for the iPad 1. You'll never see a deal like that again. I saw people in the store lining up to dump them.

Yeah, I heard about that deal about a week or two after it ended. That would have been perfect.

I watched a stream last night where the couple had actually given out their phone number and were taking "live requests". Let's just say that there was more that one occasion where there were tits being shaken in front of the camera.

I check out the live streams all the time. I saw one guy playing acoustic guitar and singing... he was damn good too. There's is actually some good stuff on there occasionally. For some reason I get a kick out of watching/listening to girls play Battlefield. Some of the shit that comes out if their mouths puts most guys to shame. Serious video game rage. Hahaha.

Interesting and good to see...

Housemarque Preparing Resogun DLC And Another PS4 Game

Resogun, one of the PlayStation 4 titles available as part of the Instant Game Collection on day one, will be getting some additional content. Developer Housemarque is working on DLC for the title alongside another, unannounced project.

Unsurprising considering how much DLC came out for Super Stardust HD. Most was just new game modes and maybe a 2-person mode.

Dead Nation also had a DLC, which added a different game mode.

I'm guessing here we'll get a couple of new planets and maybe a new ship or 2. Possibly a new type of weapon.

Pretty cool they're making DLC for a game that's been free since day 1.

My Best Buy had a sign on the door that said "WE HAVE THE PS4 IN STOCK!!!!!!! Check in the home theater department."

Word for word.

I didn't see it til I was leaving (I was only there for a price adjustment on my TV), so I'm not sure if they had any left.
