I could be wrong but I would imagine Smyths will use couriers for the PS5 rather than An Post so whilst possible, I'd imagine they'll be using couriers to ensure delivery on release date. Breaking street date on games is one thing, consoles is different altogether.

Think a few Xbox's arrived early from Smyths on Monday this week.

At the same time some people are still waiting for theirs to be delivered at all....

Smyths normally use DPD

Anyone reckon we might get them a day or two early?

Seems like I've been waiting years

Doubt it well maybe some might say loads be on this and the pre order thread giving out about not getting it on launch day just look at xbox pre order thread. Some are still waiting but I think feels longer for them as some got it the day before release date. Have one from gamestop so that will be a delivered one so not sure when exactly I will get that and then collection in smyths so I will have that on launch day.

Thought embargo's were meant to be up today given that it's releasing stateside tomorrow?

Would have expected to see stuff coming through by now.

Absolute crooks.
unbelievable..
they deliberately took as much money as they could.
Gamestop should be boycotted. FULLSTOP.

What are you talking about? The voucher is to allow you to pay the remaining balance off your pre-order online and select home delivery at check out.

There's loads of info dumped today. Godfall reviews (mediocre across the board), PS Store news like the wishlist etc, Sackboy reviews etc.

Doubt it, PS4 controller charges via micro usb and the PS5 one uses usb c.

I don't think it will? It's two different USB ports so can't imagine it'll fit in the PS4 charging port

Quick thoughts on it is that the PS5 controller is larger, wider so that the OEM PS5 charging station would also be wider to accommodate it. I'd think then that the connections on the PS4 won't fit.

Now, I've ordered my Dualsense and a controller so if they turn up soon I'll know as I have the OEM PS4 one, obviously a PS4 controller so I can check this anyway.

*shakes fist, If I break one testing this............................:pac:

EDIT. You know what, I highly doubt it:

Gearbox game is mediocre? I refuse to believe it, clearly the reviewers are wrong.

gerrybbadd

The PS5 controller dock charges via pins of some sort, like a POGO pin setup, in the base of the controller. The PS4 controller doesn't have those pins, so the dock won't work for that

Ye I seen that. What I meant was that I was expecting full on reviews of the console etc. I know we got more from Digital Foundry last week but I just thought we would get the whole shebang today. Still early in the day to be fair.

So it seems there is no embargo on Demon's Souls, people are free to put up reviews whenever they want, but they only just received the game so it could take a little while.

If I didn't pre order a ps5 does anyone have any idea when I would get 1 like would it be before Christmas? Or should I just give up hope of getting 1 till Jan or Feb?

I would not hold out much hope of a PS5 before Christmas.

Watch Argos like a hawk on the 18th and the morning of the 19th. That's probably your only chance at getting one before Christmas.

Never once had an issue with HDR with my Pro, games look stunning, vibrant and sharp, maybe it's your TV.

This is mine:

Found another one that was a count time timer. Got to 0 and reset to 10 minutes. People are the worst.

Here is a working one.

Assume bigger YT Creators got an early copy so they will be let loose full reviews on launch day?

Guys I have a brand new SteelSeries Arctic Pro + GameDAC for sale, unopened, up on adverts at the mo. If anyone around these parts are interested just shoot me a DM. Have just ordered a PS5 Headset so no need for it.

Your PS4 Pro settings are more or less irrelevant, it's your HDR settings on your TV that you need to tweak. Every HDMI port will have its own settings as will every picture mode. Load up a HDR game and go into the settings while HDR is on, tweak the settings there. The first thing you should look for is the colour temp, set it to neutral if it is on warm, that's a start. Turn off motion smoothing too.

All this being said, this is an entry level 2017 4K/HDR screen, and it is from the early days of HDR, you aren't going to notice a huge difference but it certainly shouldn't look worse.

Nobody got early copies it seems, people will no doubt put reviews up any time now but I wouldn't expect them from major sites for a few days.

HEHEHEHE. Best of luck.

€2500 and you can have my one

other than that all I can recommend is that you watch Argos site like a hawk extremely early AM on launch day and get ready to pounce.

they will fly out especially with how many people gamestop are after shafting

Not supposed to be even getting stock in Argos in Ireland I think the likes of DID and Harvey Norman is the best bet

Dualsense controller arrived today, feels heavier then PS4 but is very comfortable in the hand. Just have to wait until next week to use it.
