Wooh, Stellar Blade's finally on sale. Time to get a physical copy. Also picked up This Way Lies Madness for a couple bucks on PSN. Also considering Last Epoch, but I may hold off for a better deal.

Sony jacking up PS Plus prices. https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2023/08/31/time-to-cancel-playstation-plus-as-sony-quietly-raises-prices-through-the-roof/?sh=e43dfc0c9ac6

Current prices are now a deal, get them while you can or cancel your subscription in protest. Many vendors have already increased prices. https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2023/08/31/time-to-cancel-playstation-plus-as-sony-quietly-raises-prices-through-the-roof/?sh=e43dfc0c9ac6

Step-ups might still be iffy. "No rain-checks are permitted if a participant is unable to Step-Up within their 90-days due to a lack of available options or part numbers."

EVGA RTX 3050 is now available for MSRP of $250. Search for an affiliate code for an extra 3% off. https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=08G-P5-3551-KR

I'm definitely tempted to get a $300 RTX 3050 right now, since my old R9 270x died and I'm limping along on my prior card, ye olde GTX 460, but I really want it to hit MSRP. I just need something to last until PCIE 5, DDR5 and ray tracing mature enough to be worth the splurge.

I don't think miners are going to be buying new cards for it. They wouldn't have time to recoup the cost of new cards even on a delayed schedule. Prices will probably drop to MSRP-ish in the next month and then stay there until something major actually does happen.

RAM and PSU are rather weak for a gaming rig, and nvme drive is small. In a couple months, people can probably build something better themselves.

Hey guys, after skipping the XB1 gen, I recently got a series X. I'm reading in a couple places that there's a trick where if you get up to 3 years of Live Gold, then use the $1 for a month of Game Pass Ultimate that they advertise to bait new subscribers, that it will convert your entire Gold...

No, that's John. 😝

After all this time, that was surprisingly easy. No anti-bot checks or anything.

Seems like the S can be found pretty reliably now. I saw as many as 15 on the shelves of my local Fred Meyer in the last week or so. Too bad for me I'm looking for an X.

Not sure if there's any retailer that actually gets stock that hasn't put even the chance to buy a series X behind a pay wall. Still see series S at Fred Meyer's regularly, for those that want it.

I could swear some of these deals on the same games are actually worse than last year.

Not sure there's anything on the list so far I'd call a deal. Everything I've had my eye on has been at equal or better prices. Was really hoping for a controller deal this year myself, too.

Right Nothing-, the term scalper has been around longer than anyone alive, but it's kids' fault.

So for the Best Buy "All Access" can you pay it off right away and skip the extra costs of financing? If so, what is the final price? It's not clear on their site.

Series S hasn't had stock issues for a while. Saw a couple in my local Fred Meyers the other day. Not sure why they don't focus more of their resources on the model that has stock issues. Probably wouldn't have this level of disparity, if the S was as powerful as the X, just without the disc...

Oos in 5 min. I couldn't get past the bot protection. It just kept resetting.

In related news, they're selling new copies of the game for $10 off now. :lol:
