I can't imagine with your credit profile this card would be worth it but I know nothing about PS4 and such but it is a Cap1 card, I got the Sony card when they were offering the $200 bonus but really have little use for it besides that.

Re: Playstation card?

Sony really doesn't have any stores anymore so unless there's a signing bonus I don't see the point right now.

I know you get 10X points with every PSN purchase be it a PS3 / Vita or PS4. 3X on PlayStation® and Sony® purchases at Sony stores, quick service restaurants, movie theaters and on your mobile phone.  and 1X with everything else. I noticed it was Capital one and  I look away from Them the card itself sound ok. Just wanted to see if anybody have an opinion bad or good about that card

I believe you get a signing bonus with it of like 60 dollars value or something in points

Re: Playstation card?

I've had the card since Christmas. I spend alot on PSN and use the rewards for games and accesorries.  The Sony store has a great disount on alot of products. I think its a great card because I'm an avid gamer.

To bad I got an email about it reminding me about it after my App spree laying low till june of next year considering how many inquires i have on my Credit reports now....  I would app for it but I feel like it will be a wasted HP 

 

 

I probably spend about $300 a year on Games ? sounded like a good deal but idk how good the point structure is with that card

Re: Playstation card?

I really don't recommend it.

 

I am a total gamer. Own Wii U, 3DS, PSP, Vita, PS3, PS2, and a gaming PC. Thing is PSN doesn't go to sale as often as Steam. If you are an early adopter, buying games as it comes out, then yes. This PSN CC will net you some nice rewards.

 

But if you don't want to go digital, or prefer to buy games at a discount, don't get this card. It is better to buy discounted disc games where you save more than 10x points from PSN.
