Noticed on Costco.ca that there is a Pro Bundle with COD Infinite warfare and extra controller for $611.

Can anyone confirm if this is available in the warehouse and what the warehouse price is?

Well you'd save money going with the Slim. If you had aspirations of buying PSVR then you'd have a better experience with the PS4P. Otherwise just get the slim and buy some games with the extra money.

if you game casually and don't care too much about graphics..yeah slim is fine
for anyone who's more technically-inclined...for just $120 more over the course of couple of years it's probably worthwhile

well, the price for a ps4 slim is $380. the price for a ps pro is $500. that's how you spend $120 more to get the 4k version...

PS4 will soon support external USB hard drives

Until now, expanding the storage space on your PS4 from the standard 500GB to 1TB built into the system involved opening up the system and sliding in a new internal drive. That process won't be necessary for much longer, as the PS4's upcoming Version 4.5 firmware will add support for USB 3.0 hard drives up to 8TB.

Just before the PS4 launched in 2013, Sony noted that PS4 games had to be "cached to the hard drive to ensure a smooth gaming experience." If streaming all that game data to the system over a USB connection was a bottleneck at launch, it's apparently no longer a concern for Sony (at least for drives that support USB 3.0's faster data transfer rates). Games, saved data, and captures screenshots and videos will all be storable on external drives, and that data will show up on the main system menu without the need to shuffle them to the internal storage.

The announcement of the external HD support comes as the beta of firmware version 4.5 rolls out to selected PS4 users today. That firmware also brings the ability to use in-game screenshots as home screen wallpapers, streamlined interface improvements, and new support for stereoscopic 3D Blu-Ray discs.

The Xbox One has supported external hard drives up to 16TB since shortly after its launch. That's been a handy feature, since the Xbox One's built-in internal hard drive is not designed to be replaced by the user (though there are cumbersome ways around that).

The Wii U supported external hard drives up to 2TB since its launch in 2012. The 32GB of internal storage on the upcoming Nintendo Switch can be expanded via microSDXC cards up to 2TB. Nintendo has said that the system could technically support external hard drives via the USB 2.0 slots on the TV dock, but that feature has reportedly not been activated because such storage would not be usable when the system is in portable mode.
awwwww yissssss
about damn time

were the slims/original usually noisy? (fan-wise)

compared to my slim ps3
i find the pro a bit noisy...uncharted made it pretty noisy after an hour in
COD:IW by comparison is pretty quiet. I can play MP/Zombies for a couple hours and the thing is death quiet.

Fallout 4 is kinda the same...about an hour or so into gameplay, the fan will just go into cycles of loud/quiet/loud quiet

and this is me just using a 1080p tv

I can't hear my PS4 slim over COD:IW. I don't use it for much else.

I find it quieter than my PS3 slim but a bit. WAY quieter than my PS3 fat.

That said it does generate a ton of heat. When I put my controllers away you can definitely feel the heat surrounding the unit. It's in a fairly open area of my entertainment center too.
