    • 500 GB would probably get you 8-9 games nowadays. PS+ games fills it up quite quick. I went for the 1tb cod. I got sick of deleting games every month to make space.
      Probably gonna sell the game so it's not that much more expensive

      • Do you download digitally or buy cd's ?

        • +1

          I prefer physical media, but even so. You usually have to install the game into your HDD anyway. Most AAA games are 50GB+

        • +1

          @aycnrz: Same, as there is no sign of NBN, physical media will be more reliable delivery method.

        • @StiffHindQuarters: It takes many hours to just download updates sometimes. Can't imagine how long I'd have to wait for a whole game to download.
          That said, I managed to sell the COD game from the bundle for $85, so I only paid $15 extra for the 1TB PS4.

  • Aside for this deal, which i plan to trade in at EB, when trade in your console, do you wipe everything on your old console with HDD or just give it to them?

    • +1

      Depends what you are trading with EB games ???
      You can normally get much better prices selling on EBay or Gumtree than dealing with EB.

      If you don't wipe everything ? EB should before they sell what you have traded.

      • Trading in my xbox 360 250gb with kinect, 160gb ps3 slim and wii…no choice to go ebgames…

    • +4

      It's vastly outsold Xbox and is the market leader by a mile so don't know what your alluding to?

      • Maybe he is referring to PC gaming?

  • +1

    Any idea if PC games are included at jbhifi?

  • -1

    Bargain but seems like the new version must be right around the corner

    • Yep. That 'new', lighter version came out back in September. There is also the Pro version that came out a fortnight ago.

      • where's the link, how do you know?

  • +1

    What time are prices updated online, start of trade or earlier? I'll be at work so hoping I'll be able to order the ps4 online.

  • Does anyone know if a controller is bundles with the PS4? (I know, it's a dumb question but I wanted to know before buying it)

    • Yup just one controller. An updated one too. If you need another target has it for 68 from the other deal.

      • Thanks dude.

  • Price matching this at BigW and using discounted Wish cards seems to be the cheapest way to get a PS4 500GB, anyone have a cheaper way?

  • is this going to be click n collect? what store? JB, BigW, Target?

  • Is there a chance this will be updated at midnight on the website?

    Target and Big W have thier cards out on the table, now MS store have a great deal on Xbox One S..

    If the Xbox One S Storm Grey with BF1 and another game is really going to be $319 thats the one that I want :)

    • ok so it's now friday, and nothing new at all from JB HIFI, Is this deal busted? :)

      • +1

        The XBOX 1 Storm Grey bundle deal is up - have updated the post.
        Their pricing seems all wrong on the initial page - but I can confirm I added the bundle and the ROTR game to cart and it was $319 all the way up to before payment

    • They seem to have updated one of the XBOX Hot Offers page for the bundle and ROTR

      Add both items to cart - should still remain as $319.
      The prices and the descriptions on the page are all messed up - but lets me continue to payment step

      https://www.jbhifi.com.au/features/games/bundles/xbox-one-hot-offer-2/

      • It works! :) I am so happy about this deal! I haven't done gaming for a few years and cant wait to play this, I updated the reciever.. all I need now is the 4k tv :)

  • Wheres the PS4 deal?

    EDIT: Found it in the catalogue but price hasn't been changed online.

  • Yeah it's still not updated. Wonder if they are not allowing online for this offer? Should have been updated by now.

    • Price has been updated

  • Now the wait in front of the store begins.

    • Pro tip order online and select same day pick up? Although I guess opening is soon so you might as well wait it out now :)

  • +1

    Guy in front of me in BigW convinced staff that price was for the 1Tb PS4. Got it for $299. Then another guy who overheard walked up and said he wants that deal too. Both walked out happy.

    • Its a great deal well done. I feel sorry for the staff member, they may loose job over this.

      • +2

        I like to get my stuff cheap..but if its gonna get someone fired i dont think i can do it.

        • As someone who used to work at the games counter at Kmart, dont be concerned they'll be fine.

        • @His_Holiness: I once found a copy of Unreal Tournament for the PS3, scanned up on the shelf scanner as $4. I figure "why the (profanity) not" and go to the counter, middle age lady scans it, shows up as $4 and she presses a few keys, the price is suddenly $30.

          Moral of the story: uh, some people take their job too seriously?

    • +1

      What a douche.

      • Well in their defense, it seems it was a JB misprint as a comment below has said. Can't blame them in that case.

  • Got it from Harvey Norman online. For $200 it's a Sweet sweet deal!

    • For $200? How did that happen?

      • I used the Harvey Norman Amex deal which is $300-$100

  • Anyone had their online orders procesed?

    • mine was processed in about 30 mins

    • I ordered my 1TB COD MW bundle ($399) just after midnight, got confirmation email @ 8:30am, my CreditCard was charged, I waited all day for "come collect" email, it never came, walked into store at 4:50pm, it was there waiting for me to pick up. hmmmm

  • I grabbed a catalogue from the Prahran Jb HiFi, it's got the 1TB slim for $299.
    Probably an error, I didn't ask them about it, just grabbed it as I walked past.
    No idea if they'd honour it.

    • Yes it's a misprint, they are sending out apologies, corrections, etc.
      I tried to pricematch at BigW but the manager called up JB so deal was off, oh well, got the 500GB for $281 (6% RAA discounted Wish card) so I'm happy.

      • Nice!
        I was annoyed to see the miss-print because I thought it would stop Harvey Norman from price-matching the 500GB ps4.
        I got it by linking to the on-line catalog in Harvey Norman live chat as suggested above.

  • I'm not sure if its mentioned anywhere, but I purchased the $299 PS4 and I got a free 3 months STAN too. Any reason they're handing the 3 month passes like candy?

    • +1

      because it's useless and most people use netflix. I had 3x 3 month passes but never used it even once.

  • Can anyone tell me if the PS2 classics like the old GTA Vice City, etc, are avaialable in Australia to download for PS4?

    Cheers.

  • Guys do you think I should bite the bullet? Could this price go down a little bit before X'mas.

    I think it wont….Any thoughts?

    • It most likely won't. X-mas sales aren't as good as they used to be.

      • Yup bit the bullet and got it last Sunday.

        • Price is back to $399

        • @StiffHindQuarters: Yup good I got it now….Look forward to some good gaming!
