Just, look at this: http://www.gamestop.com/ps4/consoles/pla...dle/134658
It is literally the exact same bundle as the one that came out for Uncharted 4 earlier this year, to the tee. There's nothing different about it save for the size of the system. The PS4 slim isn't even an upgrade in any way to the original PS4 but here we go, they are already planning a PS4 bundle for the holidays, right after the PS4 Pro comes out, like, within a week of it. Why would you release something like this two months after the original version, and for that matter, announce it before the original version even comes out?
I think Sony is getting cocky and I don't like it. The Pro already seems like a waste because there's no way with those specs that it's running at native 4K, but the slim already seems even more pointless. Adding and/or advertising bundles for it before the system releases is not only complicating things for the casual holiday console buyer, and making the hardcore fans question what's going on, but it's seriously the same thing as the current Uncharted 4 Bundle. I don't play on a PC, but I know enough about building what you want that it doesn't confuse me, this however is reaching those kinds of levels and not everyone can keep up or understand. Imagine during a sale, you have both the PS4, and the PS4 slim Uncharted 4 bundles at the same price and someone wants the slim but didn't notice that they picked up the regular one. Wouldn't that not only be confusing, but highly annoying? Yet here we are, Sony is getting stupid and it bothers the hell out of me.
