Can anyone with the DualSense charging station confirm if it's compatible with the DualShock 4? Might be a stupid question but can't find the answer online.

Just checked it out for you as I had one in front of me.It is a completely different connection and as I suspected does not work for DualShock 4.

I just got a text message from DHL with a tracking number claiming it will be delivered Monday. But I’m not sure if it’s definitely the PS5 as very little detail with the tracking number so I’d imagine they are just setting up the tickets in advance

I got my Spider-Man on Thursday after a notification Tuesday.I also got an email saying that my PS5 pre order would get a shipping notification a couple days before hand but wouldn’t be shipped until Wednesday for delivery Thursday.

Games and accessories. No consoles.

Anyone hoping for speedy Parcel Motel service don't get you hopes up. Package arrived with them on Monday and only made it to my locker today. I'm in Dublin and usually once I get the photo email I have it the same day.

It all depends on your location. Some lockers are busier then others and people not collecting them till last minute makes things worse.

All my parcels this week were stored same night as they were delivered. Got atleast one parcel every single day of the week.

They've been taking payment for the consoles from today at least on the UK side

Thanks for checking! Might hold off for the moment until they release more DualSense colours.

Oh I'm definitely waiting for the black Dualsense and black covers, I'll trade in the white one then. Don't need 2.

I also hope the raised symbols on the controller don't trap dirt, or are at least easy to clean.

They're not that raised to be honest and you can barely notice them

Don't think it will be an issue. Had to get the macro lens for the phone to even see them. It just looks like a slightly porous surface

No charge on my account from Smyths yet.

Getting my 11 year old the PS5 and Miles Morales. Are there any accessories I should be picking up lads?

I let my PS Plus run out but will wait and see if it drops anywhere on Black Friday.

SMC92Ian · 13-11-2020 10:47PM

Finished Miles, not keeping my PS5. It's stunning on the PS4 as is, don't need to waste 500 quid for it. So will be selling for retail.

Enjoy the mountain of PMs buddy. Try to find somebody who wants it for themselves, not to flip for profit.

One of the strangest posts I think I've read.

I think Ian means he's played through MM already and he's happy enough with it on PS4 so he doesn't see the point in spending €500 on a PS5 at the moment.

Being familiar with Ian, he’s almost certainly doing it for attention. But if not, try to give it to a regular on the gaming forum who will actually use it.

Potential-Monke · 13-11-2020 11:40PM

There's an entire thread for people looking for cancelled preorders, best to post in there or go through the list from first onwards to be fair.

Or, do whatever you want with it and don't be coerced into doing something you don't want to do. Either option is valid.

Mr Blobby · 13-11-2020 11:43PM

Its actually crazy the prices people are willing to pay. I do wonder if some of those Ebay listing are genuine or are the sellers bumping there own bids?

Do you have a link to that thread?

True. I just saw the post and thought of wow, I'd love it. But not badly in need. Like I'll be happy whenever I get it. Actually enjoying the New controller on the Ps3 at the moment ha ha

I deffo wouldnt buy any over the retail price. Not gonna be giving any of them ppl extra money. Only encourages them to do more. Not fair on ppl who are desperate need of them for their kids. Not fair at all.

The thread is actually locked

That screenshot to me is this gen in a nutshell,im really glad Sony and in fairness MS have addressed the biggest annoyance with consoles for me in the last few years.

Copying phase after downloads and load times in games were getting obnoxious and just a general lack of snappy UI

Both new consoles are light years ahead in that sense which to me alone is worth the upgrade.

Who knows when I'll get one but I'm actually happy to wait a bit to get an all back console,preferably with red glowy lights

Dont fall for this. He was giving out about people scalping few months back and then bought the exact same item and put it up on Adverts for over retail to make a profit. He is just an attention seeker.

It's add to ignore list time! :cool:

Didn't realise the thread was closed, but makes sense.

I'm playing through Jedi: Fallen Order on PS4 for the first time (because it's finally in EA Play), and while not the worst, it takes a good while to actually resume your save, and the loading between sections/after death can be slow too. I'm so looking forward to instant gaming, but only if everyone takes on the Dead Cells approach and let's me skip all the intro screens and get to the actual game!
