G5 now can pre-order Slim 1TB bundled with Final Fantasy. With discount just slightly under RM1.5k

Good deal?

Why not get the Pro at that price? RM1533 using voucher and weekend cash back from CC (RM1583 without cash back).

No CC from those banks cry.gif

But I kept seeing reviewers saying unless we hv a 4K or going to hv a 4K TV, it's not much advantage getting a Pro.

But then again, no harm getting a unit that is future proof...

So, Slim or Pro? To Pro or not to Pro.....

I believe G5 are selling below what the market can offer (legit, shops) because they subsidized some. They are willing to invest; just like advertisements but it benefits buyers. Then, most probably you'll repeat buying stuffs from them, tell friends etc...

Win Win Win. G5 gets a bigger market, you get cheaper stuffs, seller doing biz, all happy

Official ETA is 10th November.
My order status updated to "Acknowledged" this morning.

Found another seller selling RM50 cheaper with mystery gift, after I ordered mine....
For those who is interested [LINK]

BTW, I heard in general US PSN+ free games are better than MAS PSN+ free games?
Which PSN+ region should I subscribe?
*
Item shown as 'Sold Out' cry.gif

Anyway, RM1799 with discount (Coupon) seems very reasonable. Only G5 giving discounts.....

Hi, mind if you tell us whats in the package? Did it come with any games? Cause I was looking at some unboxing video on youtube and it came with a copy of uncharted?  Was wondering if it was the same case here too
*
Most probably a bundled unit. Look at the description of included items. What it states is what you'll get.

I've seen same games titles but for different regions (R1,2,3) being sold at different prices. What's the difference between these games? The price variations can be quite big...

Thx... All these R1,2,3,4 are really confusing.

Also, can I still play R3 games if I moved to NZ?

No region lock for games, but digital download however is a different story. In NZ games are region 4, which means that u would not be able to download any dlc at all unless u create a region 4 psn

Thx. Still confused though. Just ordered the Pro, my first console that's why I'm still trying to figure out all this Region stuffs.

So, in order for me to fully enjoy the PS4 experience, PS+ is a must? If I subscribe in Malaysia, it'll be R3, right? Then if I move to NZ, which is R4,then my subscription will be useless? Need to subscribe to a new PS+ again?

Yes to your questions on PS+. Some of forumers here have multiple PS+ accounts for different regions. But this is only to get the region specific free games (this month, R1 got Transformers, R3 don't have sad.gif ). To use PS+, your account can be any region and with any games. I have Region 3 PS+ but Region 1 games still work.

You asked earlier how it will be for multiple machines. As far as I know, you set 1 machine to be your Primary machine. After which, your PS+ will be tied to that machine. You can log in to other machines but possibly games you bought cannot be downloaded onto that machine? Not very sure. But at any 1 time, you can only have 1 Primary machine.

In my opinion, PS+ is specifically for multiplayer only. Free games are a bonus. I have survived without a PS+ account for 6 months. No issue with regards to downloading and buying games without PS+. PS+ has 14 days free trial, if you want to try.

All the above on PS+.

The other thing you should know about is PSN account. PSN is required to run the PS4. It's like your Google account. No need to pay to obtain PSN. Again, most forumers have more than 1 PSN account. I have 2. I for MY (R3), 1 for US (R1). This is where the region comes in coz even the Playstation Store also will load differently depending on which PSN account you use. But, with regards to games, R1 games downloaded on your PRIMARY machine can be played even if you use R3 to login to your PS4.

In conclusion, there are 2 accounts you need to consider: 1 for PSN (free), 1 for PS+ (paid monthly).

Hope all this helps.

Thx so much. Maybe I'll get a trial version when I get my Pro.

Great help. Thx again.

Well, I pre-ordered the Pro for my kids.... as a reward

They loved FPS; which I hated coz always makes me feel dizzy and nausea.

RPG is easier on a old guy. Most probably wanna get a Diablo (which I played on a PC more than 10 years ago) or Witcher 3.

Btw, what's the difference between a normal game, collector's edition, special editions and GOTY editions? Apart from getting confused with Regions, I'm getting more confused with so many editions of a same game!!!!

I guess for beginners like me, GOTY could be a good buy coz I'm not into 'the latest of the first' kinda guy. Maybe will get W3, Batman GOTY too!

For the kiddos, maybe some FPS war games....

Does the PS4 Pro comes with 1+1 warranty too? How do I know if the unit I ordered comes with 1+1 or all PS4 comes with 1+1?
