Just be wary that amazon.de has a habit of cancelling electronic items that are being sent outside of Germany just before they are due to be dispatched, the French site could be the same, a lot of people had issues getting the Samsung Ativ sent over here when it was a bargain alert.

Yeah it looks iffy: http://www.amazon.fr/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=603088

Really hoping Knack gets good write-ups.

With Watch Dogs cancelled, I'll be picking up Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed 4 but wouldn't mind Knack if it reviews well!

Yehh. I'm getting mine for day 1. I was talking to a manager who told me that head office has been in contact with Sony and that Sony reackons that most of the orders will be fullfilled before xmas ,probably within 2wks of launch, even those orders placed till the end of septemberin Xtra Vision. You might not get the bundles though.

I'm getting mine launch day too but was wondering if you got offered a bundle yet ? Ordered mine start of July. Was hoping for the kilzone bundle but but nothing coming from xtravision yet.

Me too, its the main game on my radar after seeing the early demos. Very disappointed the new batman game wont be on the ps4 as well.

jaffusmax · 24-10-2013 08:56AM

Same here although I am PEEVED OFF about no bundles but all I need to do now is wait for the PS4 to land at my door.

heebusjeebus · 24-10-2013 08:59AM

I got the email from Gamestop too. Delighted it's confirmed now.
Shame we have no bundle option though. I'll be getting Killzone from another shop I think.

hallo dare · 24-10-2013 09:13AM

Wow! I'll be lucky if i ever get mine at this rate. Ordered two the other day from Amazon UK. They said i will have it before Christmas, hope so!

To me it sounds like a big Sony stunt, hype up the the whole thing by saying get your orders in now limit stock for launch day!!! and at the end of the day they will have loads of consoles for those who ordered at anytime, to keep the big kid in us happy.

. I'm praying by the way.

Grahamer666 · 24-10-2013 09:20AM

Got the email too. I also preordered mine online with GS in June.

I won't say so Sony want to sell as many console as it can for Xmas and there production suppose to be going well.

siblers · 24-10-2013 10:08AM

Got the email too, ordered at the end of June. Nice to know that i'll be getting it for launch

the calls will be going out mid November . My advice is to ph Xtra vision and book it now ,and keep at them. I know that the bundles are part of the 1st day alocation...get in there early

uprooted tradition · 24-10-2013 10:26AM

Just got a call from Smyths in Waterford, apparently they wont be getting as many killzone megabundles as they thought, so I had to either switch to killzone basic package or just the basic console.

He didn't say how many megabundles they were getting, but I was too far down the list to get that one.

I am still guaranteed launch day console but not the package I wanted. I went for the basic because it was really the extra controller and camera I was going for, didn't really care much about Killzone.

He also said that because the packages Sony was sending them weren't that great they really hope to do some package of their own on launch day but doesn't know for a fact yet.

I rang and called in but they said if I preorder the bundle It'll be as if I cancelled my original order and won't get it launch day. They haven't a clue in my local store. Also on a receipt I got for preordering BF4 it says ps4 bundles can't be preordered. I'll be sick if I don't get the 499 bundle. One lad said I was high up the list another guy said he can only tell me that I'm in the first wave that the names on the list aren't in order of when you ordered.

united2k11 · 24-10-2013 11:41AM

is there anywhere i can preorder the ps4 and get it on or close to release day?

At this stage i doubt it. The closest i could find and that even reassured me that i'd have it before Christmas was Amazon.

At this stage, getting one on launch day is highly unlikely so I would just pick a store, Smyths, Gamestop, whichever, put your name down and fingers crossed that they will get more stock soon enough. I would think there will still be a few more "stock update" days between then and Christmas.

united2k11 · 24-10-2013 12:23PM

alright guys i might do that thanks! Was trying to think of a few smaller stores that might get ps4's and much people don't know about them but i cant think of any..

You could try Argos on the day. I read somewhere here that they may be getting them in stock but they aren't taking pre-orders. Kind of a first come first serve on the day. This may have changed since I read it. I may have missed some important details.

Xenji · 24-10-2013 12:31PM

If anyone has changed their payment details or delivery address with Amazon and have not yet got a delivery date or have got one saying the end of December or early January have a look at this, it was meant to be resolved 2 days ago but people are still having issues with it, it is a glitch that makes you lose your place and be put back to the end of queue.

Wickerman1 · 24-10-2013 12:56PM

Anyone hear anything about the bundles Gamestop are supposedly putting together for their PS4 online customers? or are they just going to shaft us again.
Just over a month to go and still nothing. in fact I have heard nothing from GS since I preordered last Feb!

I have pre-ordered a few games with amazon already and will need to order an extra controller from somewhere but no way will I give GS another penny if they expect us to pay full retail price for everything!

They are not going offering bundles to online orders, just some discounts on items, which so far have not been announced.

Looks like you'll be queing on the 29th then :rolleyes:

Sony have done a great job hyping this .

mozattack · 24-10-2013 01:15PM

Got a call from Smyths; mega bundle not available so just going to standard PS4, no bundle.

Don't care as KZ looks muck although the extra controller was handy.
