Resistance is futile

Sony may not have cut the price of the PlayStation 4 like its closest competitor, but retailers are doing their best to make the next-gen console seem like good value at its original $399.99 asking fee. Amazon.com is the latest to amp up the manufacturer's offering, tossing in a free year's subscription to PlayStation Plus alongside the console and a copy of The Last of Us Remastered.

If you consider that premium memberships are required to play online, that's a solid saving of $49.99 right off the bat. Moreover, with all of the complimentary games that come with the popular service, you're going to be feeling the benefits of this freebie for quite some time. Has this promotion convinced you to cough up for a new console? Add to your basket in the comments section below.
