We felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of rabid fanboys cried out to pre-order and were suddenly told, “Sold out.”
If there’s one thing that sucks in a gamer, it’s a distinctly sweet limited-edition console. While the Jedi up-sell mind trick ordinarily does not work on us, we can’t deny our compliments to Sony on these two PlayStation 4 console packages.
It would be enough that both the black and silver editions are styled with Darth Vader’s classic menacing visage. This being Sony, however, function dances with form and both bundles will include the revamped CUH-1200 model console, a design reportedly optimized to use a fifth less power than its predecessors. The STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT bundle is headlined by a 500GB system with a Deluxe Edition of the much-anticipated AAA title and a special DualShock 4 controller styled as Vader’s own chest panel.
As a little icing on the cake, this supercharged bundle comes with a few extra games for breathers between rounds of BATTLEFRONT. The classic titles SUPER STAR WARS, STAR WARS: RACER REVENGE, STAR WARS: JEDI STARFIGHTER and STAR WARS BOUNTY HUNTER will all be ready to download with trophy support and improved graphics.
If, for Han-knows-what reason, you aren’t excited for BATTLEFRONT, Walmart has you covered with a Vader bundle of its own sporting DISNEY INFINITY 3.0 EDITION, along with the Disney Infinity Base and Rise Against the Empire Play Set Pack. Rounding out the set, Walmart is throwing in a Boba Fett figure to go along with Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa (bundled with the Rise Against the Empire Play Set Pack) and the downloadable classic STAR WARS titles in the other bundle.
OK, but suppose you decided to pass on the limited-edition STAR WARS PS4 entirely. Still, the Sony will be with you. Always. You can still pick up a standard black PS4 bundle on Nov. 17 with STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT and the four downloadable classics.
