Never been so happy to see money gone out of my account

Same just happened to me man. Do you know if we just turn up tomorrow at 8am and collect? I didn't get any email or text yet...?

Unless they say different in the email they will send out tonight then yep that's what I have currently planned anyway.

If everyone's so keen to have money taken from their account, I'm always willing to volunteer my services

Have you had Plus before?
If you haven't, they have a 14 day trial so that would keep you going through Black Friday.

Had it back on the PS3, don't think I ever signed up on PS4 so I'll give that a shot incase, cheers

If you had it on PS3 then you won't get a free 2 week PS+, unless using a different account.

Mine was exact same, it just changed on the site for me now but it was timed from earlier.

Got my text and mail for Smyths collection.

And now to take this moment to once again thank Wing126 for posting that preorders were available.


So the fact they say it's available for collection means I'm legally covered and have justification for entering the store after they're closed, right?

You should walk straight to the top of the queue, and any @sshole that tries to stop you will be shamed by the normal, decent people in the queue.

BTW, Odyssey is awesome!

I wouldnt be brave enough for that, im just gonna head there for 8am and hope for the best that it wont be too busy

Loved Origins but I think I never bothered with Odyssey because I had AC fatigue, so will have to cut my losses there and go straight to Valhalla

Ended up cancelling my Smyths preorder! Bought an LG CX OLED (but not for gaming), so the financial guilt was too much. I'll leave it until January, by then a lot of the release day games will have dropped in half and many of the initial bugs will have been ironed out.

Anyone got a suggestion to buy digital games online for my digital console

You'll be given an allocated time slot for collection. You can only collect at your allocated time.

Suggested games or suggesting places to buy games? I'd be interested in the latter too if its even possible! I know cdkeys does have a handful of games available to buy a code for.

So my UPS tracker has updated to say delivery due by the end of the day tomorrow. I can see the package left Finglas at about 16.40 this evening

Hold on so they give you an allocated time to collect? The payment has come out but no email yet

I haven't ordered any games, I'm gonna sign up for PS Plus with Collection tomorrow.

What's the best option for signing up for Plus? I believe there's usually reductions around Black Friday so should I sign up for a month and then see if there's deals next week??

Check cdkeys - i got the plus for 15quid less 2 months ago

You could’ve made someone here very happy if you’d passed it on.

That's what I was told. Tomorrow people will be emailed allocated time slots to avoid crowds of people during the pandemic. I think a lot of stores are doing that in the UK too. It'll likely be emailed early in the morning

I’m after nba 2k21 but I’m not keen on paying 75€

Create a second PSN account using a made up US address and buy a 12 month PS+ code from cdkeys for €26. I just renewed mine for another 12 months last week.

You only need 1 account on your console with ps+ and it lets you play online on all of the others. My US account does nothing apart from sit there giving me cheap PS+ :pac:

Bit late for them to be emailing people time slots tomorrow when they are opening at 8am, I imagine alot of people like myself will be heading there at that time

They should have emailed out time slots with the collection ready email this evening
