The real deals here are the PlayStation Fortnite bundles which are $100 less than other pricing and $200 less than they'll be on the 2nd. Wanted to make the thread so anyone on the fence about purchasing had time to before the price increases next week.

This will kill the industry. No one will be able to afford these prices to game.

IMO there no coincidence gta was being released in may and in April console price increase. Similar to dynamic pricing of there games, they raised the price on the consoles!

These gaming companies have lost their minds. They way it works is as your systems get older you DROP The Price! So more people are attracted to buy and casual customers gain entry to the business

How pathetic… This is like you're buying iPhone 12 with iphone 17 price (5 years old tech with 25% price hike). Oh, is your VR2 collecting dust like mine too?
Firing it up and almost tripping over that cord was awful

I got it at the price of $584.99 from Dell last June. It will be $899 in April. Wow!
Same here. I also stacked AMEX and cashback offers so it was $450 after tax which included Spider-Man 2. I haven't used it a lot but glad I pulled the trigger when I did. These new prices are crazy.

For those on the west side: CA, NV, UT, ID and near a RcWilley, the Flowering bundles might be avail for pickup $399 digital, $449 disk. They also have the Xbox Series S 512 for $349. I'd say the Ps5 is still better.
