PlayStation 5 - Now with FAQ in OP.

I contacted Amazon today and was told I should be able to change the address to republic once a courier is assigned to the delivery 48 hours from today.

No interest in COD, but certainly the DualSense could become an important factor in determining third-party purchases when it comes to Xbox or PS5. Just the extra feel could add so much to a game, especially if performance winds up similar.

Since Godfall isn't reviewing too well kind of stuggling to get another game for next week. Demon's Souls is being delivered in the morning so I can look at that box for a week anyway ha!

Not sure of MM but it's probably what I'll get. Have the original on the pro and played through twice already.

Might give Valhalla a try but last one I played was Origins and I got bored about 30 hours in which isn't too bad but had no desire to keep going.

Anyone who has it, Is the pulse headset on ear or over ear?

Look on ear, can't use those ones.

I have Valhalla myself but am holding off til the PS5. I've read only a couple of reviews and they do highlight that the clutter of side missions in Valhalla is far less than Origins or Odyssey, the main story is more streamlined and the experience is much more enjoyable.

Black Ops lead Game Designer confirmed that every weapon in the game has been individually fine tuned for haptic feedback on the DualSense. Amazing stuff.

But is that something CoD players would appreciate or would it affect their k/d ratio?

I'll try it on all guns "just to see" and then on all FPSs I'll disable it.

Over ear. finding them lot more comfortable compared to PS4 Golds

No it updated to November 21st which is the Saturday but I am hoping it will arrive earlier.

I would imagine PM orders won’t receive it release day either so I was happy enough to send it directly to my home address.

Tried changing the address, got this:

Important Messages
We're sorry. Your order contains items that may not be dispatched to the selected destination. Please select another address.

So PM it is

Do you have any other headphones to compare them to in terms of audio quality?

Cool thanks. I had whichever one was the original one on the PS4 and they sat on my ears, very sore after short periods of time. My PC headset is over ear, much better.

Got my text to collect Miles Morales. Anyone thinking of leaving it for a week to collect alongside the PS5, says order will be held for two days only.

Can confirm, I've been using the Golds for years and the Wireless Headset 2.0 before them and these are far more comfortable. Going to give them a test run on the PS4 at the weekend.

Pulse was delivered from Smyths today. I’ve just been testing it with the Xbox Series X wired via the controller so far.

Really comfortable headset, nice design and sound quality seems very decent from what I’ve seen so far. These seem like a great option for their price.

Smyths have sent out emails about collecting payment.

The payment will be pre-authorised 2 - 7 days in advance - so double check those funds are available! If for any reason we are unable to pre-authorise your card, you will receive a separate email from us requesting you to re-enter card details. This must be completed within 24 hours of the email being sent to guarantee your order.

2. You will receive an email confirming your order is ready for dispatch 2 - 5 days in advance and with this you now have a tracking link! We are just getting everything ready - your tracking link will NOT BE LIVE UNTIL THE DAY BEFORE release day

My headset hasn’t arrived. It’s been sitting with UPS for two days and they didn’t get my full address at all and even left the n out of Dublin.

Got my phone delivered by them and they were equally as useless at not putting my full address in and me having to ring them up and give them my eircode.

I had to send my xbox to Germany for repair via UPS, they are useless for communication. I literally had to place it on a trolley outside reception in an open area which wasn't exactly secured. Got no email updates, had to go searching via Microsoft for delivery updates.

On a side note my MM arrived from smyths today yet I've no ps5 until December... The pain is real

Whatever ye want to say about Gamestop, but at least they're not making me make 2 trips for whatever is out this week and then the console next week. I'll be getting both the console and headset together.

It's hardly Smyth's fault tho? They can just go by release dates issued by the manufacturer.

And I’d guarantee they’d have a lot of angry people complaining if they held the accessories to ship with the console. They damned if they do/don’t.

Hope it’s DHL for the console. I’ll eventually get the headset sorted but I’ve next Friday off so I really all goes smoothly for that!

CastorTroy

And I believe we were told Smyths would hold the preorders until Dec 1st or 2nd. the mails and texts they sent are just the standard for all click&collect and would involve work to create separate notifications for preordered items and instock items.

I see people are getting their camera adapters in the US

Anyone know if the ps5 media remote will work with the ps4?
