I got the cheap Amazon offer but they cant seem to deliver it for the weekend even with being a Prime user. As far as i am concerned it was a nonsense offer they are not prepared to fulfil.

Hah, no, luckily. It's not been on my mind. I should be able to manage for a while. Not currently playing the PS4, need a good addicting game for it.

This is NOT a true 4k console, Sony being a bit like LG here.

Hi mate....you might be right but for me its an upgrade nothing more and nothing less...whether its "true" 4K or not, didnt really matter to me....games will look better and I needed more HD space as my original PS4 is full, so instead of messing around with buying a new HD to install....getting the upgrade where most "new" games will look better, adding 1TB of space and future proofing myself when I get a 4k TV seemed the easy option...

I just rang sainsburys branch in uxbridge and the scouser on the phone who sounded a bit like Gerrard said "ermmmm nah we don't ave this deal here" he could only see sainsburys in that store selling the ps4 pro on it's own not with the game
I have seen this deal for an extra tenner in argos in case anyone is interested. I just want FIFA 17 mofos!!! lol

Picked up my Pro from game tonight and picked up Dishonored with it for £20. Not sure it's going to be my thing if I'm honest
May just cash in at CEX or similar before I even give it a go.
New 2TB hard drive now installed. Initialised and now copy all data from one machine to another over my gigabit home network.
So will have two machines with full games library. This is the way to copy games between machines from now on and to save myself downloading to two machines at once.

Actually it's much quicker to back up your previous console to a 3.0 external hard drive then restore it on ya new console. Ive already backed up my old and I'm getting the pro and a 2TB hard drive delivered today too.

Another Dishonored 2 bundle... a game I'm just not hyped about at all. Give me a FFXV deal with the Pro already and stop messing about :smiley:

Sell it for £32 to CEX and get a nice price reduction, simple :wink:

If there's only a few games that interest you then maybe not, I don't know?! I sold my xbox one to go towards the one s and wanted it for the larger internal drive (got the 2tb) and the 4k bluray player as they were over £400 at the time. Seemed a no brainer. My TV has hdr too. I found forza horizon 2 was a bit smoother, horizon 3 looks great, haven't picked up gears yet. Depends what you want it for really. Considering they're around £200 at the moment with games, it's a great prospect - but not if you don't think you'll get the use out of it, which is exactly why I'm sitting on the fence about picking up a pro straight away. £300 with cod/bf1/Titanfall 2 and I would. Otherwise, I may wait til new year

Hah, that's exactly how I try convince myself things aren't needed day one. I try look back on my bad purchases, but new tech is addicting!
I ask 20 people their opinions, and tell them all the cool things. That I feel I've just convinced them to purchase it themselves. >.<
I need to be smart this time around, after the Wii U being a bad purchase at £400 (day one), and the 3DS being really bad day one also, and the Ps Vita followed. I should sit back and wait for it this time.
I don't want to get a 4k TV any time soon, as it'll be more than I can afford to spend along with the console. As well my TV is only a few years old and it's still an amazing set.
When the 1080p upgrade library grows, I'll consider it then. =]

Yes of course you need that, as do I....the question is, is it worth the price lol. I have the money saved for this and still just can't warrant it when I only have a 1080p TV. I sat down with my wife (who is really good with this stuff and understands my day one gadget addiction), and she said apart from Tomb Raider and Titanfall, that I am seeing an improvement just because I want to buy the thing, and she is right.
On Neogaf there is a whole thread with a lot of impartial impressions of the PRO, and generally the concensus is that as of now, for us lowly 1080p owners there is very little reason to buy one of these if we have a PS4 already (which I do).
My inner child is going mental but then I have no issue telling my 4 year old daughter she isnt having ANOTHER My Little Pony blind bag which might have the fifth Rainbow Dash in a row in it....so I need to take some of my own advice me thinks.

Similar boat too. Just sold my ps4 recently to put cash towards the pro. I also have an xbox one s though and there's no real killer app for me on the pro. Hoping for a black Friday deal around 300 with a decent game which I'll likely trade or I might just wait for horizon in Feb when they'll hopefully do a bundle...
tubewayarmy to mudstuff

Thinking of getting an S as well. Only a few games that are exclusive to it though? Gears, Forza? Is the S worth it?

9 Nov 16#13
I'm at the same issue. Convincing my inner child to shut it, isn't easy.
It'll be the same when the switch comes out.
It'll be a 2017 Xmas purchase I think. It'll be the same console as I got but slightly better visuals. I don't need that right? :neutral_face:

Thats where ive settled on it too. There is a difference for 1080p owners but it isnt really that much better yet. Maybe in time we will see more benefits but as of right now I see no reason for me to buy it other than cant wait syndrome. Given time we may see more games patched and taking advantage of pro features etc, and while this happens more bundles will become available with more competitive prices. Waiting is a win-win for me on this one, as much as the child in me wants it now because its new. Most of the articles i read, DF and others, lean towards it being a luxury item only for 1080 owners, and more of an essential purchase for those who havent bought a Playstation this gen or own a 4k tv.

Hopefully more games go the route of Rise of the tomb raider.
Has multiple graphic settings.
Locked 60fps (1080p)
Improved visuals (1080p)
4k res 30fps
I only have a 1080p screen, but if many companies go the route of improved visuals I may fold and buy one when the price drops to around £250-280

So each sainsburys store will likely only have a few units anyway? So totally random if you can get the deal?

ive got 40quid on my nectar card. will this still be available next wed for double up voucher?
voyager123 to trojan34
9 Nov 161#7
hard to tell as a lot of places only have a few units for sales as the rest are resevered for preorders
but that could just be sony's usual ploy of sending limited stock out

As long as the deal is still available you will be good to go. No way these are going to sell out everywhere.

Can't use it til the day after pro releases, was hoping for a better choice of games bundled with it, still only got a 720p screen too myself so I'm probably gonna hold off on a new tele and the ps4 pro until this time next year

would say thats for the best as you aren't even going to get the benefit of improved framerates etc in 1080p
