Amazon UK Gives Early PS4 Pre-Orderers the Chance to Upgrade to a Bundle

If you were one of the first people to pre-order a PS4 on Amazon in the UK, it meant that you were guaranteed a launch day console, but it also meant that you missed out on all the discounted bundles that came later.

Oh, that's so awesome from Amazon UK!

ShopTo.net offered me the chance to upgrade over a week ago. They confirmed my order for Day One and also offered me bundles for Day One as well.

Thank you ShopTo.

Remember Amazon this week put up the price of the PS4 to over £400 until another retailer got slammed for doing it. They then changed the price back the following day. So, not so good Amazon!

Sick bundles!!

Yep got the email yeasterday upgraded to the killzone + 2 controllers + camera bundle for £449. All though I will say this works out at about €530 so €30 dearer than the exact same bundle as the rest of Europe but still a great deal.

I ordered a PS4 on Gamestop.ie (Gamestop Ireland) Online in Mid June. They are not allowing online customers to upgrade to a bundle only store customers. They said to a fellow customer this is SONY's policy not theirs, I say BS!

As you can imagine I am an extremely angry little Laoch!

[SniperControl]

Dude, cancel your PS4 and get the X1 instead, bloody Sony!!!

(Alot of sarcasm added)

[gaelic_laoch]

It crossed my mind briefly then I said to myself "I don't swing that way, I am only attracted to the PS4, I am normal and it is ok to think these thoughts"

Phew good to get that out!

[vigilante_man]

Maybe you swing both ways....

[Elimin8]

Loach! You know you're a pendulum. Sht Up. lol... I tease.. Bubbles BTW for having my fav actor as your avatar!

[evilbart]

I guess someone disagreed with the exchange rates

[SniperControl]

Got a call from Game a few weeks ago, got my KZ bundle with extra controller and PS Eye for £450.
Even better as Sony just announced the the DS4 will work on PC.

[5eriously]

Lovely, and please take note that it's optional. You are not forced by Sony as some unscrupulous retailers and eXB0ne fans want to make you believe. (wink)

[GraveLord]

So only Killzone and Watchdogs get hard bundles?
That's not fair :/

[scruffy_bear]

Got the Watchdog bundle with extra Dual-shock 4 for £389 :)

[evilbart]

Sorry scruffy bear but the watch dog bundle only includes 1 dualshock 4

Bundle 2
Sony PlayStation 4 and Watch Dogs (PS4) - £389
This bundle includes:
- Sony PlayStation 4 (PS4)
- Watch Dogs (PS4)
- 1 x Sony PlayStation DualShock 4

[scruffy_bear]

That would explain why it's only £389 thanks for the heads up, I'll just pick up another DualShock 4

[evilbart]

You could probably still change it to the killzone bundle with the extra controller and camera for £449 great value

[Vanna]

This is just great,
I just checked my email and both my preorders are eligible.

Have to decide what ones now. Maybe watchdogs that seems like it has alot of playability.

Agree though, no forced upgrade like that really dumb store the other day.

[Polysix]

I wanna know if it's a proper boxed copy of Shadowfall without 'not for resale' emblazoned on the front before I upgrade my bare preorder to level 5 (got the email from amazon today giving me 5? days to make the choice).

[Caffo01]

In Italy amazon doesn't want to upgrade my order...
They answered "sorry if we aren't as good as Amazon UK..."
Canceleld the order immediately and preordered the bundle at Gamestop..
