Got an email from Smyths saying they're putting some up at 10:30pm, although it came this morning but mentioned December 3rd so whether it's just a typo or a late email and they sold out last night I don't know

I think I'm just going to chance brick and mortar now. Online just gets swamped by robots and queuing. Although you're queueing to get into pigging retail as well. CeX is the nuclear option but I'm waiting for the price to drop. A PS4 would take £120 off it but that's still £700 left.
Was it not 10:30 yesterday morning?
That link recommends using https://www.hotstock.io/uk btw
I'm a twit
This was it, but it was sent this morning and was titled 'pre order 3rd December' so I wouldn't trust any of it
Off topic slightly but is there a way to have the controller go off when watching something like the DS4 did? Seems to run through charge twice as quick without it.
If you press the PS button I'm sure there are power options for the controller in the little menu that pops up at the bottom, I know you can turn it off that way at least if not set a sleep timer
I went to GAME on Monday and they weren't expecting stock until 2021. I'm willing to wait at this point.
Im about to throw 800 on this
CeX? They're down to £795 now.
In Wolves, you can give her a £20 and get back change.
I went on Amazon and then Argos today and the PS5s are still sold out. This shit was released last year, wasn’t it? And people still can’t buy one? Boggles the mind.
I was chuffed to get mine in a store. Fuck waiting about online.
It's due to the microprocessor shortage, I am guessing.
Fucked everything this Covid. I still have played an official PS5 game yet.
Is there one you're bothered about or are you waiting for GT7?
I'm the same, had it since November and the only PS5 games I've got still are the free upgrade versions of PS4 games I already had. Probably should have scalped it for big profit and bought one later
The price premium on games knacks me up. I only took Demon Souls to have something new and, even then, it's old enough for the preowned copies to wind up at £50. I could just about stomach that. Returnal is probably the only other PS5 title I'll be keen on. I'm not playing PS4 stuff on it whilst I've still got that kicking around. Once Bugsnax is done, that's all I'll really have. Not including reviews which will mostly be PS4/PS5 versions of tat. And Chivalry 2 which runs really, really nice.
I understand the sentiment but I still think the vastly improved loading times, graphical performance and haptic feedback stuff justify the purchase. Also I am a physical media slag with a load of 4K discs only the PS5 can play so that helps.
Yeah, I definitely look at Demon's Souls and see a game they couldn't manage on the old system. Graphically, there's so much going on. But then you get F1 2021 which looks barely negligible from the PS4 version. You can push it to 120FPS and that's it.
Being able to double the frame rate of a game is quite a big thing tbf.
Yeah but that's something that doesn't appeal to me unless I've got the display to do see it. Like, I can't see HDR on this set but I can easily be impressed by volumetric lighting, particle effects and some really nice god rays.
I've just bought two tickets from a work raffle in an effort to get one of these fuckers. 1 in 30 chance.
We'd love to have you on the dark side. Are you interested in buying if you don't win?
I want both consoles for this gen Fox and I will buy them both if they're ever available.
ShopTo has stock of console bundles.

I am so tempted, but six hundred quid? That can't be RRP, surely.
Also annoyingly I've already pre-ordered FIFA22 on Xbox to lock that hero card down.
They sell them in bundles to lock out the scalpers. So you get games and extra controllers you might not want.
To anyone who is after one. @Yevrah
Cheers Fox. I'm getting close to doing it!
There was a good long time after I'd got my day one Wii that I could have sold it on for a profit, PS5 may be close to beating that at this point.
Does it even have any exclusives anybody gives a shit about yet?
Don't think so. I'm only doing it for the back catalogue.
Yeah if you've not had a PlayStation in a while, some of the stuff in that Ps+ collection will be great for you. Also still plenty of time to get Horizon or God of War done before their sequels come in 2022/3.
I think the biggest is still Miles Morales. It's a cracking game but it's far too short as it's basically a large DLC for Spiderman.
So I guess that begs the question, what are the best exclusive games on the PS since the PS3 was launched?
Demon Souls, Metal Gear Solid 4.
God of War.
Might be my favourite game ever.
Horizon: Zero Dawn. The Last of Us.
Heard great things about Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted and Ghost of Tsushima too.
Yeah, I need to pick Tsushima up. Then there's the PS/PC stuff like Nioh 1 and 2. And Bloodborne.
There's stuff but you could get a similar shortlist of Xbox exclusives as well.
PS5 purchased, should be with me next week.
Delve into every nook and cranny of the box, they hid the USB controller cable bizarrely well in mine to the point I was halfway to complaining before I found it.
Digital or physical console?
Physical. Mostly because I'm sure there are some PS4 games I can chive from friends.
And cheers Wullie, I will forensically examine that box!
Very nice. I went digital as I havent bought a physical came in about 4 years.
I did add this back button kit to my controller recently:

Thankfully you can turn them off as I found myself playing accidental passes on FIFA
What's this PS Now thing about? I really want to play the original God of War games again at some point, but apparently I can only do so on PS5 through that.
