Retailers know that the world wants a PlayStation 5 and that they’ve got you by the balls. But while we could somewhat see the value of Costco Canada’s big catch-all bundle with a new Sony television and all of the accessories, this forced Curacao package has left us rolling our eyes. It’s available daily at 5:55PM PT, and costs $1,399.00.
So, what do you get? Well, a PS5, of course, along with an extra DualSense controller, an HD Camera, a Pulse 3D Headset, a DualSense Charging Station, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and… A chair. To be specific, an Arozzi gaming chair.
Honestly, this isn’t the worst deal in the world, assuming you want all of the above. But that’s a big assumption to make, right? No doubt these will sell out regardless, and you can order through here. Meanwhile, you can keep a general eye on the overall PS5 stock situation in our guide: PS5 Stock: When and Where Can You Buy PlayStation 5?

still a cheaper offer with more stuff included than all those shamefull scalper prices who ask 5000 bucks for JUST the console alone.
@jdv95 True that!
Aw yes, because people who play Call of Duty want to play Sackboy.
Edit: Jeez I sound like a clown.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand Well I've bought Sackboy and I want to play Call of Duty
@HotGoomba___Rebrand
I've pre ordered COD and Sackboy lol.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand I want to play both?
You know what? I actually will need a chair soon, but I do not trust Curacao. Also, I already have two of those games. CoD and Valhalla.
Wouldn't mind Sackboy and Miles Morales though. They seem great. I could take the other two to return at Walmart, maybe even HEB.
I wonder if Fingerhut will have a bundle. I trust them more, and the interest from them is already included and reasonable.
I was really pissed when GameStop's midnight release of the PS5 was only for bundles starting at $750.
I really want a PS5, but I only want the console and Demon's Souls - not a bunch of other things.
Ps5 is the new n95 mask. Mankinds greed on display
It's maddening when they do this
But you can get it as low as $69.95 a month!
I'm still waiting for my Red Dead Redemption 2 + horse and Saddle, stirrups, leather, Ultimate Collectors edition
Waiting for the "If you want toilet paper you need to bundle a PS5" offers near me.
Seriously, I thought these bundles got legally outlawed last gen. I'm all for limiting hard to find items 1 or 2 per customer but the bundling BS is a garbage move.
Give me a break pushsquare! No one is forcing you to buy anything. It's a choice, do you want this package or not. If you only want the Ps5 then this package is not for you and you should wait. You guys are obviously bleeding heart liberals. There is absolutely nothing wrong with companies offering combo packages. If they sell there is demand. If not then it's too much. Nobody can make you do something you don't want to. You said this made you roll your eyes. This article made me roll my eyes.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand i want to play both and i currently have demons souls and sackboy..👍
@Rob_230 @LiamCroft @Scarla88 @carlos82 lol I didn't expect this joke to get this much attention, but here we are.
With sold eBay listings at $1000 just for the console, at least your paying msrp here.
WTF It's already sold out?
I actually got my PS4 through a bundle with a bunch of stuff I didn't want. It came with an extra controller, FIFA, an Assassin's Creed game, and a Need For Speed thing. I paid like £200 over the odds for all that rubbish, although the controller did come in handy.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand Might wanna put your “memes” through some focus testing or a beta phase before just spewing them all over the place.
@Deadcow I am saving up for that bundle.
@get2sammyb Nobody has anybody by the balls, are you having a bad day or something? Your articles are usually pretty up beat. I hope you are fairing well.
@TG16_IS_BAE Yeah, Google should've done that to with Stadia.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand Haha, agreed!
@Deadcow ...what?
@Exlee300p They mean the bundle is forced. In that the chair is kinda thrown in randomly, only tangentially related to the PS5.
@jdv95 I think people need to look for a while until they find a reasonable deal. I found one for only 100$ mark up:
@Deadcow
But why?
Same thing is happening with the 3080. Just start bundles with a Fridge and a set of pans
Why even pretend they just trying to force sell crap nobody wants at this point.
@Deadcow
Good to know!
@Deadcow
I actually prefer to play from a gaming chair. As one ages, the recliner or couch just doesn't offer the same support as a great gaming chair, like an Arozzi does. I can work or game for hours in it, and not wake up the next morning feeling like I slept on a log. Just roll it over from the desk to in front of my TV, and I'm good.
This is shaping up to be the worst generation ever. It is only a matter of time before the scalpers start effecting the bottom line for Sony and MS. If the consoles are sitting on ebay no one is buying games or other accessories. They have to sell games to make the consoles profitable.
@zupertramp I got what they meant and found it an absurd assessment.
@Deadcow No, you’re good! I was just slow!! Lol now I got the joke, hours later!!
People do seem prepared to pay the high prices on ebay, judging by the bids. Though it could be people bidding 600 hoping to re flip it for more, who knows?
Its a sad situation for us who can't/won't feed the scalpers, but there'll be plenty of consoles to go round eventually.
If they bundled PS5 and a TV and left out the accessories I'd be in!
Lmao we don't even get those bundles in UK including TV/PS5 BUNDLE PACK even tho we have cosco stores here in Scotland all over UK ps5 sold out completely no surprise playstation is strong here and most of Europe but those scalpers are the problem
