    How? I'm on the app and it's the same $55.95 price as this deal at the moment.

    • +3

      Only if you are a virgin app user

  • +1

    Ordered from JB at midnight and received my code straight away 👍

  • Silly question, how are these delivered? Is it a physical card?

    • +2

      Physical from Amazon

      • +1

        Thanks! Bought from jbhifi and got the code pretty much instantly.

      • Bit odd isn't it?

        I would have thought Amazon would have done it digitally as well.

  • Is VR mega pack or VR set including Move controller?

    • No Move controllers with either bundle.

  • Is the only difference between the VR sets the games that are bundled? Are these games worth it? And would this be the more recent headset? I've never looked too closely at the VR set up for PS.

    • +4

      They're some of the best vr games yes, so definitely worth the extra cost for that but bundle.

      • +3

        Thanks. that was the most impulsive purchase i've made in a while… browsing just before bed. I haven't turned the Ps4 on in a couple months…

  • +5

    Is dealbot a real person? Genuine question.

    • +4

      Probably not, I think some bot just writes these posts

    • +1

      He's android 16

    • It’s a real bot.

  • +2

    Reckon there will be an improved version of the vr though? PS5 is probably out end of the year

    • All they've said is current gen VR will be compatible with PS5, so possibly not in any rush to release a significant upgrade to VR.

    • supposed to be a new headset for ps5

  • Is PS Plus really that worth it?

    • +7

      For $55, even two decent free games make it worth it.

      I'm not much of a gamer but found three that were to my liking over the past year. It's a pretty wide and decent selection, so if you bought a PS4 for more than letting it gather dust or perform the functions that a $30 Chromecast could do, then yup worth it.

      • Do you get to keep the games "forever"? Or are they only available for the month that they are free?

        • -2

          Forever

        • +12

          For as long as you keep your paid subscription active

          • @buckster: do they vanish after it finishes?

            • -1

              @asa79: All the games you ever downloaded for free from the subscription are removed when the subscription runs out. They will reappear as soon as you resubscribe, with a caveat being the account can be closed by Sony if inactive for 2 years.

              • @drycleanonly: Wait.. so if I have the PS Plus games downloaded onto PS and then my subscription ends, the games get wiped off the PS automatically?

                Can the PS Plus games be played offline? Do they still wipe themselves if no PS Plus active while offline?

                • +1

                  @tommypickles: The games are not wiped when your subscription ends, but you will not be able to play them. When you first start the game it will set an expiry date equal to the end date of your current subscription.

                  The games can be played offline as far as I know - maybe need to be online for the first startup to do the license checking, but maybe not since the PS+ information is likely stored on the PS too.

            • +1

              @asa79: They stay with your account forever, however you can't play if your subscription is inactive.

              Simply renewing will let you play them again.

            • +1

              @asa79: You will need to add the games to your library when they’re available. after that you can play whenever you have an active subscription.

              You can’t redeem past games that you’ve missed.

      • The 5 in the VR mega bundle are yours for as long as the servers are there to download them.
        Any "free" games with PS Plus are yours to use whilst you have an active PS+ subscription. You can let the sub lapse and come back periodically to reactivate them when you want

    • +1

      100% yes!!
      Ignore that jealous xbot TheDuke troll… >_>

    • 2 "free" games every month, the ability to play online multiplayer and exclusive discounts in hundreds of games.

    • Yep. I have played two full games this year so that's paid it off for me.

  • Can PS plus be brought forward to be used on PS5?

    • +7

      I'm sure it would be. The amount of backlash Sony would receive..

      Here to atleast hoping!

    • +1

      when I had ps+ on ps3 it did carry over to ps4, so it should be.

    • +1

      It can be used on the old ps3 as well

    • +5

      it's a network so yes. otherwise it'd be like Apple Music switching off when the next iPhone comes out

  • Thanks OP. Got the code straight away from JB.

    edit: Is it worth getting the VR? I'm very interested but just worried i won't be playing it much :(

    • +2

      That mega bundle have astrobot and resident evil 7 that plays on dual shock controller which btw is the best platformer of all time and one of the scariest game of all time respectively.
      But the other 3 games requires move controller and all I can say is good luck finding them lol. It's insane that just a freakin controller is selling out!!!

      • -1

        So you can't play 3 of the games unless you buy/find a seperate controller?

        • +1

          All the games can be played on the dualshock. Some of them also support move controllers, and that would probably be the preferred way, but not required.

        • What McFodder said

  • Would I be able to hold onto the code for another half year before using them? I have a US account running the ps plus currently, just for the online access.

    • Yes

    • You probably won't be able to play any of the free games you get on your US account once the plus expires between now and when you activate your Australian subscription though. Since they officially won't be tied to your Australian account and the US account is no longer able to access them or allow other accounts on the system to play them. Not a big deal if you don't care about any of the games given out, but I guess be ready to pull the trigger early if a really good game gets given out in the next couple of months.

  • +1

    Thanks OP. Got the VR MegaPack Bundle 2 and the PS+ Membership. Looks like I'll be firing up the PS4 up again!

  • Plus Also going to be 55.97 on the ps store if a few days

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/539510

  • Dumb question. I just renewed my PS plus membership for 12 months. If I buy this and enter the code, will it extend my membership for an extra 12 months on top of my current membership?

    • +2

      It stacks up to 3 years

      • excellent. thanks mate

      • Stacks up to AT LEAST 5 years

  • Spiderman PS4 is also $16. Excelent price.

  • +3

    Suncorp rewards has 6% off eb games gift cards
    Eb games has 12 months sub for 55.95 + 6% off = $52.59 Digital Download

  • Does big w have the PS Plus subscriptions?

  • Does anyone know if JB will price match Amazon in store?

    • Jb and Amazon both have it for $55.95

      • +1

        I was looking at the playstation VR Megapack.

        Amazon has it for $299 but JB have it listed for $329.

        Sorry should have been more clear in my original comment.

        • +1

          Confirmed JB will price match Amazon for the VR Megapack

    • +1

      Yes! The guy at JB Knox was able to price match as long it's sold by Amazon AU.

  • Save $2.24 by buying e-gift cards via racq rewards 4% off

    • took me a few days to think if I needed it considering my PS+ Subscription goes till the end of 2021 but sure :)

  • I can confirm the Amazon discount on first purchase applies to the PS Plus 12 month card

    • which one is that

    • So it brings price down to $45.95? With the 10 off and free shipping

      • +1

        Correct.

        • Is it targeted? as I just tried and it wouldn't work. I even made a new Amazon account but it still didn't work

          • @dandealsau: Unsure. You might have to have had Prime for a period of time or had an account before a certain point. My account is few years old at this point and I've had Prime for most of that.

            Installed the app purely for this deal and uninstalled it shortly after redemption

  • Hi Guys, is there a way to reduce the cost of the PSVR MegaPack Bundle 2 by using Shopback or something similar?

    • IIRC for Amazon and shopback, electronics, gaming and gift cards are excluded. Check the T&Cs

  • +1

    I can't proceed to payment on the JB website. Anyone else having this issue?

    edit Only had this issue when logged into My Account with JB. Once I logged out, it allowed me to proceed.

  • If you sign up now, you only get the 2 games for this month and that's it, right?

    • +1

      yes

    • +1

      yes

    • and for many months after

      • +1

        11 months after, if buying the year long subscription

  • +1

    thanks for the deal. remember to cancel your playstation plus auto renewal.

    • If it expires, do you lose any acquired games or will they be there once you pay again?

    • Thanks… almost forgot to cancel it :)

  • Considering the PS VR but it’s only 1080p and that’s shared between the eyes. Seems a bit low?

  • +1

    Is VR worth it? $299 with the 5 games seems good value

    I mainly play Warzone, just wonder how much I'll use VR.

    • Blood & Truth alone made VR worth it for me.

  • ALso the AMEX "Get 10 Bonus Velocity Points per $1 Amazon Prime"

    • +2

      Pretty sure that is for Prime subscription and not items bought via Prime
