PlayStation Deals: Assassin's Creed III, LEGO Batman 2 Bundles on Sale
For those that don't have a PlayStation 3 or Vita in the household yet, or maybe wanting to upgrade their PS3 unit, here's a couple of great opportunities to take them off the list.
First, eBay via Newegg is selling the 500 GB PlayStation 3 Super Slim model bundled with Assassin's Creed III and a 30-day free trial of PlayStation Plus for just $229.99 with free shipping. That's about $70 off of the normal price which hasn't changed since the bundle was released late last year.
[Some free advice for deal seekers: Keep a close eye on eBay via Newegg. This past weekend they were selling The Last of Us for just $44.99 with free shipping.]
It's a quality bundle that I even purchased last year when it was released. While AC3 has dropped in value and can be found for about $20 brand new in most places, the 500 GB is almost necessary for those that subscribe to the PS+ service.
Anybody that's on the fence of the Super Slim model shouldn't worry too much. It's less noisy than the Slim model and it's easy to get used to the new top-loading feature. I've opened the slot multiple times now and it still feels as sturdy as when I got it.
The Vita deal is the black Wi-Fi edition of the unit included with LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. It's available for just $199.99, $50 off the retail price.
LEGO Batman 2 can be found at its cheapest around $18.50 at Amazon right now. Note that a memory card is not included with this, and you'll need it to save the game. They're overpriced as Sony continues to gouge consumers for them, but it will be around an additional $10 for a 4GB card and around $18 for an 8GB card.
