So i have my PS4 pre-ordered through Amazon. I originally had the Watch_Dogs bundle ordered but as I'm sure most already know Watch_Dogs was DELAYED! How or why they waited so long to announce the delay of a launch day game, I will never understand as Ubisoft made the announcement literally 30 days before launch.
So after alot of thinking I decided Assassin's Creed IV would be my launch day game. Then all the sales buzz started happening. I read online that Target would be offering a buy 2 get 1 free sale during the launch week of the console. After reading some different forums it appears that some other retailers are honoring this as well. I also read about Amazon in Germany offering a buy 2 get 1 free sale, but nothing was announced "officially" in the US until this past Sunday. Luckily today I was able to get three games ordered from Amazon using my free trial of a Prime membership to get free two day shipping.
So let's hope that my console and three games all make it here safely on Friday. The three games I chose were :
Assassin's Creed IV
FIFA 14
Knack
I think these are three good launch titles for next gen and with PS+ I will be able to download several other free games over the weekend. I should have PLENTY to talk about on the next podcast which will be our actual first episode of What I'm Playing Now.
So check out my next blog post which is a link to our PILOT episode!
