    hey lads, ordered from Smyths Blanch, got no text from DPD this morning but its saying my order is travelling through the network ?!!? usually get DPD text early in morning for deliveries "bob will deliver your package between 10 -11", think I will get it today?
    Is the PS in packaging or just the box? don't want the little lad seeing it!!

    Looks like my PS5 will arrive before my copy of Demon Souls which I ordered last Wednesday with Smyths.... Hilarious!

    Ah lads... the controller is just glorious. Make sure to spend 20 minutes or so in Astro's Playroom to get a real sense for it. You can feel directional wind, rain, walking through sand... you have to experience it. It really is gonna add a new dimension to games. Downloading games nice and fast here, Valhalla on 88%, jumping into that as soon as it's ready.

    Honestly the best part so far.. walking in the snow on Astros made me audibly say wow

    Yea the size of it has been blown way out of proportion

    But its ugliness certainly hasn't.

    Ironically, it's not the expected panels, but the shiny center. Nice matt finish there would work a bit better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,136 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    So for anyone that collected, were you aware of anyone in the queue chancing their arm with no Preorder?

    I'm going to wrap it in matt black

    Sometimes clears on GPUs after a run-in period (or a PSU change), but never really goes away.
    Some people are just more sensitive to it than others, and TBH, it wouldn't surprise me if you hear more about it given the noise reduction of these consoles in general especially when they get pushed hard.

    Might come to that alright. Scratch-magnet that finish if the unit gets repeatedly handled.

    Yep, 3 people today in the queue I was in tried but no luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 757 ✭✭✭Denisoftus


    Collected mine, was in line for 20 min with only a handful of ppl. Apparently they were waiting for the stock or something, as it started to move much quicker at some stage.

    I couldn't believe it but someone actually didn't bring their ID, it though its impossible considering how much effort were to preorder

    There was a teenager in front of me in the queue for Smyths. He turned to me after a few minutes and said (quite friendly like) ‘em...you wouldn’t happen to be reselling, would you?’. After I chuckled and said ‘no, sorry man’ he promptly left the queue and wandered off in a daze.

    God speed, young man. God speed.

    Astro's Playroom is even better than expected, the most Nintendo type game made outside of Nintendo

    Any good deals on regions / sites for credit that you're using? Still need to pull the trigger on demon's souls but it's coming to 65 euro for 70 dollars credit.

    I was in Argos collecting, got chatting to the sales girl.. asked her how many PS they got.. none!!
    No Argos stores got them, or Harvey Norman.. they were let down by Sony.. they were expecting them and nothing arrived!!
