Is there a reason why a 1TB PS4 would be €20 cheaper than a 500GB? (€349 vs €369 on Argos).

The 500GB may be the new model (lower power draw).

The new iteration is 500gb but I'd put this down to a catalogue error. Open to being wrong but it's not as if this is a 'slim' re-release or anything; just a manufacturing iteration for SONY.

Technically the new 500GB SKUs cost Sony less to make even discounting HDD capacities between the old and new units. Suppose if Sony wanted to they could pass that saving on to the consumer or increase their profit margin per unit.

It is part of the Summer sale. Few decent games on reduced prices.

For those of you who were recommending Journey, thanks!

Downloaded it yesterday and really enjoying it. Such a beautiful game

Anyone any recommendations for the Rapture game? (Waiting for the Rapture or something like that?)

But it started off at €14.99, which is already quite a low price. Is it in beta?

There's already a pretty substantial thread about it over on the games forum. The general consensus appears to be that for those that have played it, most have loved it and were especially taken by the graphics.

Not sure, noticed it myself, was tempted to buy it but have gone off the BF titles.

Probably reduced again as it was not getting much sales IMO.

If you're enjoying Journey I would recommend Everybody's Gone to the Rapture too. It's not that it's the exact same, definitely a slower pace but like Journey it's beautiful and the soundtrack is incredible.

The game itself is essentially an exploration game, looking for the bits and pieces of the story.

I loved it anyway.

Oh, I don't follow the Battlefield series, so have no idea when it would have been released. It's just odd that it's still on a quite a low price, even before the sale.

Get Dishonored remastered instead or hold out for 2. Thief was a big, big let down. Pick up Thief 3 on Steam instead with some mods.

I thought Thief was awful myself, I played around with it a bit for 2 days after purchase and it's been keeping Killzone company at the bottom of the pile since then.

Bf4 reduced to 14.99 or what ever for summer sale and then there's the PlayStation plus 10% off, that's what you're seeing.

BF4 is nearly 2 years old now, hardly a surprising price.

I was just surprised because I saw it in Gamestop for nearly €40.

It is Gamestop in fairness. I'm amazed they are still not trying to get €70 for it.

Don't think there's a set feature list that they're testing, all it is is 2.57+
