Damn. Maybe I should trade mine in and get the slim...

Does the slim run better than the OG one?

And Spiderman will get you from 22 to 26 bucks in credit depending on your membership level tc. Put that towards a year of PS plus for 40 bucks.

I believe it does. I'm mainly doing it for the storage space and because my PS4 sounds like a blowdryer now.

It's quieter and more energy efficient. And a brand new 1 year warranty.

I think they're doing a $20 additional trade bonus towards new games with valid game trade in. Maybe I can get Blops4 for $20. Even if its physical.

You need to clean it out. And the slim is not better at running software.

Nice. I have the fat version of every PlayStation console, but I dont care about that as much as I used to. I dont use it for gaming a ton these days but I use it for streaming, so Id its quieter and more efficient it sounds like a good deal.

No they aren't. That "pay 20 dollars less" promo simply means every game on that list is worth at least 20 dollars worth of trade in credit, not that they chop off a flat 20 bucks.

I can buy it $60 brand new but I have a problem with it being cheaper digitally on both consoles and trading in a brand new game only netting me $20ish bucks. I'd rather give the game as a present then essentially get ripped off.

Theres a save data management option in the settings menu and you can upload all of your save data directly to the cloud from there.

Log into your old account on your PS4. I think you can share Plus across accounts on the same console. I could be wrong though, that's how it is on xbox

Im only doing this because I had to make a new account when I got my PS4 three years ago. I totally forgot that I had used a different email address, so I just redeemed the PS+ code with my old accounts email address. Now Im trying to link them again so I can upload my save game shit, but it looks like I wont even be able to do that. I can get a two day free trial so Im just gonna use that to upload and re-download it all on my new account. God damn I feel like a moron.

They may have overlooked it but I've been seeing people online get charged a $15 fee for not having it. Better safe than sorry. I'm bringing some shitty USB that's probably worth $2.

Store opens in 45 minutes. I'll probably buy a PSN card so I can get Blops digitally lol

Cant you just log into your new PS4 with your old account and share the Plus across the console? Maybe you have to make it that accounts primary console or something.

Yeah, once I get the new one Ill be able to. I just need to upload the save data from the account that doesnt have the full Plus features before I trade the console on.

I asked the girl if I could trade it in and she said you could but that this bundle came with a digital copy. So I went home, opened it up, physical copy. She either didnt know what the fuck she was talking about or she didnt want to deal with more shit lol
