I'm sure this has been asked before, but in regards to this spend $100/get $15 back promotion, I don't have to spend it all at once, right? Like I've got about ~$70 worth of stuff that I want now, but I could wait until later this month to find the rest?

Correct, as long as the amount you spend between the 4th and the 1st is equal to or greater than $100*, you're fine.

* - In the past there has been a bit of a leeway for $99.99 and $99.98-type amounts, like if you buy two $49.99 titles, but no promises.

So I know Trackmania Turbo was going to have VR. But is it going to be launch-day ready?

Yeah, just make sure you're buying through your PSN Wallet, and you should be good.

So for example, buying a digital game code and redeeming it wouldn't count.
You can, however, add PSN credit codes to your Wallet and then use its balance. I always get the cheapest ones ($10) since you save a cent on each. :v:

Gotcha, thanks. I'd be doing that since there's a $100 for $95 PSN card deal on Newegg today.

Nice, please share the link if you don't mind. Or is it a unique emailed coupon code?

Edit: Nevermind, I found it. Thanks for the heads-up.

I heard the vanilla version saves' are incompatible so if you played the game on a rental or borrowed disc, be aware. I don't have a link to verify right now.

grab the free demo. its a cool battle system but its essentially a mobile game and is based around grinding away at battles non stop so you might not want it on a home console.

For the $100 - do preorders count this time? I mean I'm getting FF15 even if everyone says not to be

Also, I never got my stupid 20% off code for Bound and Abzu preorders and now it's too late (I tried contacting support and the queue was like an hour long)

yes

the confusion is because for the PLAY promotion you get a coupon good for only released software so no pre orders, no plus subscriptions etc.

for these 100 bucks in a month things you get a rebate in store credit. they don't care what you buy to earn the rebate or what you put the rebate towards.

I don't know where else to ask this, so I figured you'd have a proper answer:

Is the Division Gold Edition worth it? I might buy it but only read bad reviews, so I don't know.

Except for the Underground DLC none of its been yet released - they're putting all their efforts into fixing the base game before releasing any more content. It's a perfectly decent game on its own, as most of the problems won't be apparent till you hit the end game (which is what most of the fixes are targeting), but the value of the season pass is still in question.

Some say that his politics are terrifying, and that he once punched a horse to the ground...


Yeah I would say just buy the base game and stop playing once you finish the story and reach level 30. And hopefully they do a good job of fixing the game as they could solve the post game content woes.

Underground isn't that great so it's really up to the last two to redeem the season pass and you can probably buy those individually anyway.

It's a fun platformer with some cute moments and funny dialogue but don't expect anything more than that. Also if you're specifically asking about the PS2 version on PSN, it's not the best port.

The DLC is low effort trash. The single player is ok, don't expect to play it much after the end though.

FFXV is not Final Fantasy anymore. It's a Kingdom Hearts ARPG reskinned with FF style character models.

Yeah, I don't know. I was wondering about that a couple months ago, and posted in the Overwatch forums, but folks said that games would have to specifically support it, so I didn't press. It's expensive as heck, though. There are existing mouse/keyboard solutions that cost less.
