We'll see. But a bundle on the PS5 Slim is very different than a discount bundle on the brand-new PS5 Pro.

This PS5 slim (digital version) is going to be on sale for $379.99 this holiday season:

Sold off my original PS5 after getting the Pro and they didn't want the console covers I had bought for it. If anyone is interested I have the Nova Pink ones here: https://direct.playstation.com/en-us...or-ps5-console

They only fit the disc version not the digital only version. Just pay for shipping and they are yours.

Sony deleted and reuploaded without the discounted price. Either someone jumped the gun on info that wasn't supposed to come out yet or it was incorrect info.

Probably just early. Funny that $379 is $70 off the current MSRP, but only $20 off the original MSRP from 2020.

Anyone comes across any good deal on the One Year Sub, please post. Mine runs out this Friday. I've been looking for the last month and nothing, even over at CD Keys nothing. I really miss thos days where you see $20 off here and there but since they went up...way too much IMHO.....the only deals I see are for other countries.

I mean you'll see a deal closer to Black Friday, I'd think (and you're lapsing probably at the right time). It'll probably just be the standard deal that will push it back to pre increase prices but at least it's something.

Sony may be buying the parent company of the studio that makes Dark Souls, Elden Ring, and Armored Core, along with other studios that are noteworthy.


These series’ have all been multiplatform, but this would be a big ‘get’ for Sony since FROM is probably one of the most revered studios.

This context is also noteworthy, from the anime side.

To be fair, if you name your gaming studio Acquire, you're kind of asking for it to get bought up.

Finally! It's insane this wasn't a feature from launch of the Portal :

Finally coming to PlayStation. One of the most acclaimed indies of the year. Previously was just on Switch & PC.

What kind of game is it? I could glimpse the noir aspect, but what’s the play style?

Per Wikipedia :

Gameplay

[edit]In the game, the player assumes control of a woman, who is invited to participate in a mysterious project set in an old mansion.[2] She must explore the mansion to find out what is happening, while the situation becomes progressively "dangerous and surreal".[3] The game features more than 150 puzzles, which can be completed in a non-linear sequence. The game is played from a third-person perspective, and the player can interact with various characters and objects.[4]

Edit: I'm not a graphics snob but man those graphics look like they came from the Windows 3.1 era.

They also finally brought over to the US a PlayStation drum controller so I've been played the recent Taiko no Tatsujin: Rhythm Festival with it and it's really fun. I played a ton of the last game just with the PS4 controller.

I bought an imported PS4 Drum controller ages ago. (Of course I did). I should check this one out. Might be fun for the family during Thanksgiving break.

Hah, me and my sister still play the hell out of the Taiko games everytime we're at the local barcade, cool it's getting another home accessory here.

Edit: Oh, the Switch controller is only $49 right now, hmmm.

Once again, a deal on Plus for new or upgrading members only. Ugh. It's like they want me to lapse membership until their next "sale"

Yeah the Switch controller has been out for awhile it's just the PS5/4 version that hadn't come out here.

I’m holding out for a $100 PlayStation store gift card for $80 promotion and I’ll add that to my wallet for my PlayStation Plus Essential renewal. I hate that they stopped offering the Black Friday discount for current subscribers.
