Moving to PS4 (1 Viewer)

[Funkley]

I like playing Madden with the kids but my PS3 is old and I am serious about finally moving to the PS4. But i am also cheap and hate the thought of spending $350 bucks on this. For those of you that have already gone next gen, is it worth waiting for xmas sales? How about Costco? We are members there....do they have any decent sales on next Gen that I should wait for?



TIA

A new PS4 is about to be released I think.  Should cause the current version to drop in price.

What are the differences between the new, to-be-released version of the PS4 and the version currently out?

It's being announced sometime today.  Don't know the details.

4k support and VR ready are the big bonuses I think.  I could be wrong though.

Kanil, thoughts on how yesterday's news could affect the price of the "old" PS4?

I believe I read that old PS4s will be $299

The new slim which is not the pro will also be $299 so I would expect to see discounts on the original PS4 if that is an option.

I would wait a few more years.  The price is sure to come down some more.

In would wait until the holidays. Really, you're just two months out from them now. May as well wait. Usually some deals with a new console will be get a free game or controller.

And if you're a target shopper they always have that Buy 2, get 1 free for the games right around the holidays.
