I know i am late to the party here. But, £360 for the hardware is incredible value..

 

[michael oakes]

I got one at game last night and one at Amazon this morning (in case one falls through). Just wondering which ps4 titles to order to get the free upgrades now.

******* scalpers, wish there was a way they could stop people doing that.

Already up on eBay for 700 and the likes, boils my **** that does.

Sure does ... but I'd be lying if I said it didn't cross my mind to buy two and sell one at double the cost, effectively giving me a free console

overslept, got up at 0930 and it appears Very and Amazon out of stock.

Can't get currys to load either. Gutted.

I sold an xbox 360 for £600 cash back in the day but then that was my own genuine pre-order, I wasn't going to keep it when someone was willing to pay that price, have it son, I grabbed another one a week later anyway, fool and his money soon parted and all that.

I remember when the Xbox 360 came out, I was much younger and stupid then and wanted one really bad. I ended up getting one off eBay, paid around £500, I can't remember the RRP but I went around to the guys house, he didn't bat an eyelid that he was ripping someone off for his own pocket. I could never look someone in the eye if I was the seller. I literally would not give anyone the satisfaction now, even if it meant my kids crying on Xmas morning

People need to concentrate better on their professional careers rather than sinking this low to make a couple of hundred quid

 

[antijoke]

so nobody wants my preorder for £700 then?

Try sell it here, old boy. Let's see how far that gets you

Isn't there a rule in the MM about profiteering?

Looks like the rules thread is DOA

Try and prove I didn't pay 700 for it myself

 

[Vinno]

Well I preordered on amazon but not sure I’ll keep it.

the main reason being to fund it I would be selling my 20th Anniversary PS4....but I am really not sure I can part with it. It holds so much nostalgia for me but I don’t know if I’m being silly being this sentimental over it.

I'll take it off your hands

 

[scorchedbee]

Yeah I've only spotted it on FC6 and CoD: DLX as you said so far. Put my pre-orders in for digital versions. Might aswell.

Are the uogrades just for digital owners or do disk owners get the upgrade too?

Yep, no scumbags allowed

 

[Mark1989]

Very just emailed us to say that they've cancelled our order as they're unable to fulfill it.

Can't say am surprised. Still chance to get elsewhere

When shopto list there I registered interest with them but as I got Amazon order in I'll cancel my interest so may help others get stock

 

[^TANK^]

I went in to Game and preordered a ps5 in there instead I'm not keen on Very holding all that money when Game only wanted a £10 deposit, plus I like my midnight launches.

 

[JUMPURS]

Nope, still not that much. Games haven't increased in line with inflation despite becoming more and more complex and with far great scales. £60 in 1990 would be about £140 now.

Wasn't Virtual Racer like 90 quid when it came out?

Not sure, it says it on the PSN store pages, so I assumed Digital. But if the disc and digital versions are going to be £70 anyway... just depends if you want to resell it afterwards.
