<body><div>Prime Day has officially kicked off, running from October 8-9, and it's your chance to score incredible PlayStation deals.

The Slim models are essentially a more compact version of the original PlayStation 5. It brings a sleeker design to Sony's next-gen gaming experience. While maintaining the high performance and features of the original PS5, the Slim version addresses the bulkiness that was a notable aspect of its predecessor.This is the best PS5 deal since last year’s Black Friday, and if you’ve been waiting for a solid holiday offer, now’s the time to jump in. It’s looking unlikely that Black Friday will bring a better price, making this an excellent chance to grab the console at a significant discount.PS5 games are getting bigger by the year. Considering how troubling it is when Call of Duty takes up your entire internal SSD, and how fearfully massive GTA 6 could be next year, now's the perfect time to upgrade your storage. Plus, our favorite SSD deals this time around is a known crowd pleaser. It was the most popular deals of the most recent Prime Day event, and the Samsung 990 Pro 2TB SSD is now down to $132.99 for October Prime Day, $10 better than the blockbuster deal we saw earlier in the year, and down from $265.

College Football 25 has dropped to just $42.99 for Prime Members, down from its $69.99 list price. It's a great deal for the game. IGN reviewer Will Borger had this to say in his review: "If you know and love college football and just want to pop into Dynasty, build up your favorite school, and play some football that looks good and handles well, College Football 25 is the game you’re looking for."Great news for Metal Gear fans: the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 is now half off at Amazon for Nintendo Switch, dropping the price to just $18.98 during the October Prime Day sales.This handsome collection includes, Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metal Gear (NES/FC version), and Snake’s Revenge. With MGS Delta on the horizon, it’s a perfect chance to revisit these classics before diving into the remake.<h2>October Prime Day: More PS5 Game Deals</h2>It's clear Ubisoft has no problems showing up for a Prime Day sales. Whether you're into Star Wars, Avatar, Prince of Persia or anything else, there are major price cuts to be found. Be sure to grab these deals while they last.<ul><li>The Last of Us Part 2: Remastered - $39.99 (was $49.99)</li><li>Madden NFL 25 - $42.99 (was $69.99)</li><li>Assassin's Creed Mirage - $22.99 (was $49.99)</li><li>Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown - $19.99 (was $49.99)</li><li>Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora - $26.99 (was $69.99)</li></ul>The LG Evo C3 is an outstanding TV that has won top spots in several of our buying guides, including best 4K TV, best TV for gaming, and best TV for the PlayStation 5.

Sure, a PS5 controller gets the job done, but there's nothing like the exhilarating rumble of a racing wheel to make you feel like you're tearing up the track. The best deal for Prime Day? It's this Logitech G29 Wheel for just $189.99, down from $299.99.<h2>Is It Better to Buy a New Console on Prime Day or Black Friday?</h2>Last year during the long Black Friday sales, we also saw the launch of the PS5 Slim. As we've mentioned, Sony quickly the mid-gen refresh with Spider-Man 2 or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. That was the most popular deal of Black Friday, and a good indicator that can be worth waiting on a decent console deal. It's also worth keeping like the PS5 Pro could be getting more of the spotlight come Black Friday, or could usher in bundle deals or price drops for every other PS5 when it's available regularly. For now, when it comes to October Prime Day vs. Black Friday, the answer is go with your gut. If $50 off the PS5 Slim during Prime Big Deal Days seems like a good deal for you, it's still a pretty rare sight and well worth taking advantage of while you can.Robert Anderson is a deals expert and Commerce Editor for IGN.
