The PS5 Slim bundle is being framed as a solid value, especially the 1TB disc version with NBA 2K26 included. The price is seen as competitive versus recent inflation and other retailers, and the bundle can land under $400 after reselling the game. The disc bundle also gets the nod over the 825GB digital model because of the extra storage and drive. The main drawback is PlayStation Direct checkout trouble, with repeated transaction errors and promo code issues. A good fit if you want the disc model and can get the site to cooperate.

  • The CFI-2000 2K26 bundle model is described as having extra storage and an additional game.

  • The 825GB digital price is framed as a fairly decent deal versus inflation-adjusted launch pricing.

  • The 1TB disc bundle can work out under $400 after selling NBA 2K26.

  • The 2K26 bundle can be cheaper than buying a controller separately.

  • Checkout can show a transaction error that directs buyers to retail partners.

  • Trade-in vouchers may be restricted to playstationdirect.com and may not combine with promo codes.

  • PlayStation Direct ordering can fail due to backend limitations and lack of direct support contact.

  • Klarna and discount steps can trigger repeated checkout errors and conflicting guidance from support.

Keep sipping that koolaid dude. Company's love it when the consumer makes excuses for them.
I'd say those are legitimate reasons, but there's definitely a +greed hidden in the price increase equation too.

You're paying $55 more for the Costco deal for that controller. This is the better deal now.
You do realize PS5 controllers are $75 retail?

Yes? So if you need two controllers the Costco deal will save you $20. That said, we don't know yet if DualSense controllers will be on sale in November. Amazon had them for $54.90 in May so we might see them for around that again. Unsure though of course. This still includes a free game which may be worth it for some while not for others.

Profound statement. So, who's complaining? I bought my PS5 years ago because I'm not a clown who waited until now. This thing is 5 years old ffs.

buying a ps5 when the ps6 is just around the corner. lol. This would be a deal if the ps5 was $250 or less. Also consoles are heading the way of the dodo. THe xbox just kicked the bucket and sony machines are next. just buy a pc or stop gaming.
Waiting for another BF $349 deal lol but that was before the Slim version was introduced

Consoles are going the way of the dodo bird, but you reference the PS6 in the same post.

does any one know if the 50$ voucher from PS4 trade-in stacks with such coupon codes ? or adding the voucher jacks the price to full price and then deducts only the voucher value ?

Nah these companies are just greedy. Economy is as good as ever and they saw consumers willingness to spend 2x/3x the price for scalped consoles and GPUs and it set the market baseline.

As a business why would you make 10 dollars when you could make 20 dollars
I'm sorry, the economy is as good as ever? What?!!?!

The Costco deal is $55 more but includes an extra controller so basically the same when it comes to overall deal.
https://slickdeals.net/f/18720481

Unsure why this is getting downvoted as it matches the pricing frorm yesterday's +124 Frontpage deal. It only takes an extra minute or two to sign up for a free IGN account.
https://slickdeals.net/f/18722797

edit: now that the NBA2K26 game is included for free, I'd rank this "IGN" deal better than the Costco deal.
It's not a good price, that's why it gets down-voted. So tired of companies jacking up prices just to "put it on sale" for what was regular price. Amazon does the same nonsense we're tired of it.

Crazy to think I got the Slim 1TB disc spiderman bundle for only $350 minus coupons and rewards at staples for a final price of $270. And this was only in Feb of 24. I think still blaming supply chain issues is a bunch of crock. Inflation and tariffs definitely.
Why are you spelling greed in weird terms ?
