    Argos have them in stock for collection but it isnt showing up in searches. Here's the PS5 version I found using the product code from the UK site.

    Looking forward to diving in over the weekend, but after seeing the box art in person I just want to reiterate that VILLAGE (stylised with an VIII) is a very funny and ridiculous name for a major video game.

    I still believe nothing will top Kindgom Hearts 358/2 days.

    Physical games help feed my habit by selling and buying a new game, only game always contributing to the new game.

    I'm looking forward to click and collect coming back next week because this delivery bollox is annoying.

    It’s ten quid cheaper to order a physical copy of the game. Simple as that really.

    Plus if its console, you can resell it and make your money back, most people would be done with the game within a week or two..

    Buying digital on release unless PC is just really really dumb.. Infact buying digital on console at any time is almost always a bad idea unless you like to be ripped off..

    Unless you have a game share thing going with a friend or two, then its not so bad i guess.. Would still be cheaper to do that physical copy wise..

    Only played an hour into there in the afternoon........looks well, sounds good, heavily optimised on the PC with good solid GPU usage as well.
    Gameplay is nothing revolutionary, and hasn't dealt any surprises as of yet, but looking forward to going back to it. Between this and Metro Exodus yesterday, it's nice to sit down at the PC for a change.

    Smyths Brian? DPD with order received status? DPD just got back to saying they haven't received it from Smyths yet, just my info but i thought it would be them collecting it so still don't of Smith's haven't sent it or DPD haven't collected. I'd get a refund now if i could and just go pick it up in Argos.

    Mine has updated now to moving through the dpd network. They deliver on Saturdays so tomorrow wouldn't be too bad. Has put me off using smyths again anyway, especially if you're in Limerick!

    Played about an hour, will get proper stuck in tonight.

    I've managed to stay away from any promo material /spoilers for this thankfully. I have to say (and it is very early days) I'm not terribly impressed with the direction they seem to have taken this ie more action oriented, quicker enemies etc. It's definitely less horror more action.

    There was also some food on a plate and I couldn't make out what it was supposed to be at all. Maybe the cook was just bad! Nitpick I know.

    All that said, I'm hopeful of a good game!

    About an 90 minute's in on PS5. Echo the other comments, definitely shaping up to be much more action heavy than 7, it looks lovely and is running smooth as silk but so far it's not anything that hasn't been seen before, not really feeling the enemies I've encountered thus far either.

    Loads of graphical issues on PC until I updated the drivers then a few more that sorted themselves out when I reset. Running really well on my system even with Raytracing on.

    I don't know what is up with the film grain effect but it's utter garbage. Considering they got this right back with silent hill 2 there's no excuse for how bad it is. In fact it's outright dangerous and a great way to induce an epileptic fit. Don't turn it on!
