I'm not sure what to think. I hope there's something good for me in the US this month. Besides Grim Fandango, I've gotten nothing worth a second thought. :/

The EU and US offers are aligned. What you see in OP is what you get in the US.

In before the complaints about not getting recent A-list titles for free.

I'd settle for year old titles.  Witcher is a year old with DLC coming. U4 is out next month, why not the collection?

The collection came out in October that is too soon to be on the instant game collection for a $60 at release title.

They already give it away as a bundle with PS4 consoles.  Uncharted 4 is out next month -- drop the collection in April let people who never had a PS3 and bought the Battlefront/GTA5/Last of Us/BLOPS3/Destiny bundles get caught up and try to build sales of U4.

 

On PS3 several AAA releases came out on IGC about a year after release -- NBA 2K14, Tomb Raider, Dragon's Dogma, Hitman Absolution...   XCOM came out the June after it's October release.

But the bundle version cost more compared to just getting a PS4 alone so its included in the price they are not giving it away.

No it's not, it's $349 standard no matter what, if there's a game bundled or not (which, there have been bundles of one sort or another for a while now, I'm not sure where you can even get a new PS4 without a bundle).

My PS4 bundled with Last of Us code and GTA 5 game disc was $400 (black Friday deal 2014). Yea I saved money from buying the games seperate but they were not given away they were just discounted. It was not a store bundle but an official PS4 box bundle.

 

edit: nvm you might be right. the ps4 alone was $400 alone at that time

    • Microsoft kills AI-powered history search feature in Edge

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft kills AI-powered history search feature in Edge by Usama Jawad In June 2025, Microsoft began rolling out AI-powered history search functionality with Edge 138. The idea was simple: allow customers to use natural language phrases and synonyms to find their desired history items rather than matching keywords exactly. Although the company had already rolled out this capability in a phased manner, it has now decided to cancel it. In an update on its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has announced that it has decided not to move forward with AI-powered history search. The company has not detailed the exact reasoning behind this move, but it has apologized to customers for the inconvenience. The move is rather interesting as it seemingly could have improved user productivity. Edge users wouldn't have to worry about typos or exact keywords, and just focus on what they were trying to locate in their browser history. Microsoft had also assured users that an on-device AI model would be leveraged for this functionality, and no data would be sent to the cloud. IT admins also had the ability to control its availability through the EdgeHistoryAISearchEnabled policy. When the feature began rolling out last year, many of our readers called it creepy, noting that they couldn't trust Microsoft to keep their data on their device. Others also questioned its usefulness, saying that it's simply a way for Microsoft to insert more AI bloat into its products. Although the Redmond tech giant had stated that it will be more mindful about surfacing Copilot features in Windows 11 apps, we later discussed how this is mostly a rebranding exercise rather than an actual axing of AI functionalities. Indeed, a Microsoft executive later emphasized how they want to reshape Windows for the agentic AI era. That said, it does seem like at least AI-powered Edge history search isn't a part of that vision.

      Not likely, of course, that we will see routine citizenship checks as they only involve compliance with existing federal voting laws already on the books for decades. This seems a non-issue entirely. Only fools would have the government rush headlong into an AI program few can understand or predict, or even debug...
