I always laugh when I hear outrage about people scalping.

People realise you could preorder since June, right? I mean, that was 3 months ago. If you haven’t one, it’s because you left it till the last minute.

The only place you could preorder from June was Gamestop. And those people apparently haven't even been told yet if their order is secured. (Which is silly imo, because surely they are ahead of everyone who ordered last week)

You could preorder since June with the most unreliable retailer in Ireland. And then there were essentially two one hour windows with Ireland's other key retailer supplemented by a few other Irish retailers where all over the place. One of those two windows was in the middle of the night, unannounced.

So you're just so wrong. On so many levels. And trying to pin it on buyers is shïtty and wholly incorrect.

Is unlikely you'll get it delivered on release Day if you choose home delivery, more like the following day. That's why collecting from the store is the more desirable option

Thanks, delivery was the only option when I ordered during the week.

Ad was removed anyway. So they are acting on it. Plus selling something you don't actually have is a bit sketchy.

I looked on eBay. Full of confirmed orders going for £500-600+ .

I'd like one launch day but if I don't have it I don't mind enough to pay over the odds.

The way its worked before is their system gets updated around about an hour after their shops close. So if they close at 8 on the Wednesday you should be able to order one for collection some time after 9pm.

I've done it before for game releases on a Friday, was able to order at 10pm on the Thursday.

I’ll try this the night before

It doesn't seem to be limited to Ireland, US, watching some youtube vids, was a clusterféck too today for their 2nd batch as well. Overpriced bundles or queue for 2+ days outside a B&M.

Starting to get nervous that my 4k TV with 50/60HZ refresh rate won't be adequate enough for this. Is anyone buying a new TV or monitor to go with their new console.

There won't be that many 120HZ games and even if there are they be 1440p.

Same 1080p tv I've had for the past 11 or 12 years.
Have thought of a new tv but will see down the road

Check if your TV, can do 1080p or 1440p at 120 HZ. My TV can do 1080p and 1440p at 120 HZ, so for those game I can drop down to 1440p, and have 120 fps and super sampling, which will look good.

daheadonu · 26-09-2020 04:21AM

Can't believe I missed pre orders today

fingers crossed on more being released

Thanks Rob should your TV auto update then to run at 1440p in those instances if that's all its receiving from the PS5? Apologies im clueless at TVs

I was in my local argos the other day and asked about the playstation 5 the man o was talking to said they will be realising the playstation to reserve a few days before launch day, he said for example if the launch day is the 19th Nov start checking around the 15th and onwards..they could come up at any time
thought this might help someone to get a playstation secured

Aska · 26-09-2020 08:42AM

So I put myself on the €50 waiting list on GS there when they first appeared,yes I know it's GS but anyway, last night I got the €50 returned to the revolut card and there was no email that followed either, I only noticed it happened due to the revolut icon appearing on the top of the phone. I went into the revolut purchase history and the GS payment now says reverted.

Anyone else do likewise?

Sidford · 26-09-2020 08:48AM

Anyone else getting the 3D headphones on launch day? Another 100 on top of 560ish (including game) is a bit of a leap so was going to wait and trying to convince myself that early games won't be set up to take advantage of it. Am I wrong?

GavK · 26-09-2020 08:51AM

Anyone know if I buy crash bandicoot 4 on the PS4 PlayStation store can I play it on the PS5 ? I know I’ll be able to with FIFA 21. They’re the only two games I’m considering getting before the PS5 launches.

dubmick · 26-09-2020 09:08AM

Pre-ordered with GameStop on the 17th of September. Nothing came off my PayPal and no email or history of it on my account. What is the chances of getting this before Christmas? No idea what happened.

Ya, I splashed out on a TV that can do 120fps 4k as I want it to be as future proofed as possible.

How Soon Is Now · 26-09-2020 09:37AM

I have a Samsung KS7000 I bought few years ago had quick look at the specs last night surely it will do the job for the time being!

Was thinking of getting them, but over ear headphones are sometimes annoying with my glasses.
But could be something for the Santa list.
