    Any Carrickmines for delivery people updated yet? Feels like it's gonna a long day waiting for that delivery SMS.

    Seems to be a good few on the preorder thread, myself included, who are based in Dublin and are in the same boat. Hope it updates soon.

    Just realized I haven’t bought any games for it!!! Are there any demo games uploaded onto the console?

    If you have PS Plus then you get the PS Plus Collection for free.

    Got a Seagate 4TB external hard drive yesterday and moved my PS4 games to it in anticipation for the PS5. Anyone know will it have to be formatted again and games manually loaded on to the external again or will the PS5 recognise it and the games stored on it straight away i.e. will it be plug and play?

    Was about 10th in Smyths Tallaght this morning.
    Queue was slow moving, got to me, in/out in less than a minute.

    Demon's Souls will be the 1st game I play, 80 mins left...:(:(

    Got there at 08:00am and was standing at the end of the que right at the corner of elverys, didn't get my hands on the ps5 till 08:55. When I got into the car, the que was around the corner and along the side of elverys. It's insane

    Picked mine up at Smyths and got home there, only one person (a mother) stopped me and about 20 envious looks. :D

    You know things are bad when mothers are out roaming the streets and accosting people for info on PS5.

    No queue at all at Smyths Sligo. In and out in 2 minutes. I forgot to clear space in the boot, so she’s riding up front with me.

    It still is and all the way down the the end of elverys. They need to sort it out its way too slow.

    Same an hour ago when I went up. Maybe there was a queue at 8 but it was empty at 9. Smyths now have my business for the whole generation whenever I am buying in a B&M shop after the way they calmly and expertly handled the whole PS5 launch!

    Have to get some groceries as well like food and milk. Think will pick those up first. No way am I stopping anywhere and leaving the PS5 in the car.

    So anyone who collected already notice any dodgy people watching?

    Well in Sligo everyone is dodgy. But Smyths did have a security guard on the door.

    You could plug it into that massive display in your dashboard and just never go home?

    I never properly looked at the PS Plus Collection before now. That's a ridiculous set of games and they are all free! Anyone who skipped PS4 and didn't play any of them has a lot of fun ahead.

    First impressions of the console are really good. Played through 1 level of Astro's playroom and the controller is fantastic. I'll need time to get used to it I think as I only played around 30 minutes and my hands are a little tired :D

    Second thing of note is the download speeds. I'm hooked up with a LAN cable on SIRO gigabit and I'm getting 65MB/s downloading Days Gone. That's 3 times the speed I get on PS4. Huge improvement.

    It took 5 minutes to download the first 14 gigs of the game and I'm playing it now
