Add 'coil whine', constant crashes, ridiculous fan noise, hard resets, rebuilding the database, reinstalling firmware on top of no external drives, dropped frame rates, LAN transfer etc. There ARE serious issues and a lot of them appear to be hardware related, so no update will fix those.

Well crap, hope I don't see any hardware issues. My Series X is thankfully doing alright. Guess, my decision for what to buy Cyberpunk for has been made.

Should just be a lottery/draw system. Wake up at 8am, confirm your payment and shipping and wait for the results an hour later. All pre-orders should have been that. Harder for bots and people have a better chance at getting something. Nike do draws for their very limited edition shoes on the SNKRS app.

I've entered about six or seven of those draws and gotten nothing. Lottery systems are worse as they're flooded with duplicate entries.

Plus it's fine for Nike to run lotteries for Nike shoes. Can't expect people to commit to dozens of lotteries with different sellers. Would be pure chaos with people getting multiple consoles.

Normally I wouldn't be too worried but now there are a whole load of 'what if' scenarios running through my head..."what if they don't see the one that went through but see the 'pending' one and don't send me my console!?' ������

And then it arrives safe and sound but it dies after 5 mins ðŸ˜

I've followed that twitter page a while but filled with morons with "will it ship to the us?" But now it's filling up with Irish people asking basic questions about Amazon.

Like if I order Thursday will it be here by Christmas? If you even have to ask.........

Nope, and nothing on the orders page on the gamestop website either.

Just gonna have to hope they know what they are doing

Nope, but I’ve seen lots of UK retailers shipping this evening - including Very who actually have the items shipped direct from the supplier, so even Sony’s PS5 distributor have sent them out in the UK today.

Gamestop being on this makes me believe this is false information...

Checked my account just there, it's been taken.

Taken from mine too. Delivery time has changed from 21st - 24th Nov to “arriving Tuesday”. Changed from PM to Irish address 2 days ago. Anyone with an Amazon order who stayed with PM get updated delivery as a matter of interest?

Same but when you click into order it says Tuesday.. I wouldnt think they will arrive by the weekend we should just consider ourselves very lucky...

Anpost and amazon has become ridulous in parts of Ireland they are constantly getting stuck in traffic so don't expect it to arrive launch day, I know I don't but I can wait.. Also amazon CS is amazing so if anything does go wrong you can easily get a refund whereas other places might tell you they have to send for repairs etc..

Yes- any coil whine or noisy fan and its going back. (Especially seeing how silent xbox is)
Had to deal with pc’s with those issues in the past and it bothered me for years.

Interesting to see on the links provided - Argos are selling a 1tb WD SSD under the Playstation banner, for 260 quid.

I'm having major issues with my xbox ... steel series 7x isn't working correctly but I think its all down to my eir mobile connection and protocols..

This better not be the case with ps5.. My parents had a 4k TV which was out of warranty by about a month the ambilight went on it and amazon refunded it straight away after it was sent back... so its work the extra wait for that extra bit of cover

I should be asleep (god damn insomnia) but checked mine just there as I stayed with PM as had topped up specifically and paid extra for insurance. It says “preparing for dispatch” and arriving tomorrow. In the “see all updates” section it says “delivery appointment scheduled”.

Money taken here too. Yay. Says delivery 21 - 24th, when you click the updates on link it says package has shipped. Not expecting it by tomorrow but nice to know it's on the way. Delivered by Amazon Logistics

Anybody with click and collect smiths that has money taken yet? I haven’t yet when do they usually take it

Won’t be taken until tonight around 9pm.

Nothing from them for me either.
As everything I’ve received from them recently has taken two days to arrive, I don’t expect to see anything before Friday now

Edit: Unless they use that courier that was mentioned? I know that for Xbox it was split between An Post and another delivery company (An Post took two days then as well) so perhaps the other one was quicker??

El Gato De Negocios

Amazon have taken funds from me too. Getting a little bit hopeful I'll get it tomorrow but won't be annoyed if I don't.

Nicetrustedcup

So some updates on my ps5 for people

It’s been dispatched by Amazon via ups so hopefully I will have it by Friday if not it’s not the end of the world

Game.co.uk shipped at 1-50am good chance it will be at PM today/tomorrow.

They changed my shipping from Royal Mail Tracked 24 to Yodel Next Day and it says on Yodel's website that their next day only covers mainland UK. I'm not optimistic for mine. Plus Yodel are notoriously crap.

Pretty sneaky of them to change the shipping method for a lot of the orders and especially to Yodel for people outside mainland UK
