Apparently those that tried to order 2 PS5's from Currys this morning are all being cancelled and refunded as they stated only 1 per customer.

ASDA just had a surge of stock available but went within 2 minutes, added to basket and wouldn't get past payment screen only to find it it's sold out.

You'd hope it locks in the stock if you're in the checkout page!

Plausible ... did they post that on social media ? I only ordered one console, so that fits I guess.

Theres also a trick to download the ps app on your phone, grab the ps5 free games (as part of the ps plus subscription) now, and redeem and download later when he gets the ps5

How do you do this 'trick'?

Congratulations to those who managed to get one very jealous.

I can't afford to it get one right now due to being laid off cause of covid but I know I would be gutted if I had the money for one and couldn't get one.

Just trying to tell my self it's just a upgraded pro with better graphics and load times and I still got lots of quality games to play until I can get one.

A question to those to have one are the games that have 2 versions Spiderman for example are the trophies lists separate or shared.

Feb 2021 is the earliest stock will be back, according to the guy in GAME today, who I spoke to.

Any ps5 owners noticing coil while on their machine ? Started demon’s souls and could hear it straight away

Sorry to hear that but on a plus, when you are able to get one hopefully the system bugs will be patched and perhaps more choice of games.

Finally got round to setting it up, controller feels real quality.

Now to play some games

Well had a hour or so on Spiderman and wow graphics, gameplay and controller went beyond my expectations.

Is the new PS5 system update automatic or do I have to do it manually?

My DLC decided to work for the PS4 spiderman game, anyone else had the debacle? where the paid DLC WOULD NOT WORK

anyway I've watched vids of Morales on PS5 and wasn't blown away, but maybe it's one of those things you see in person?

Damn you sony for making native 4K projectors £4k. Spiderman at 113'' screen size is amazing

No where near getting a PS5. Was up at midnight and 8am and then 12pm and nothing

 

[Cosmic182]

Anyone notice screen flickering/glitch in the home screen? its perfect when in game but can sometimes be glitchy on the home screen. I'm currently connected up to my Alienware 27" monitor.

Don't make the mistake I made and buy a 2.5 inch drive over 2TB, even if it specifically says compatible with PS4/PS5, they are all SMR garbage. I realized when I was moving 500GB of games to it in preparation for the PS5 and it said 11 hours remaining.

I found a spare 2.5 1TB SHDD laying around. Placed that into a caddy, transferred 700GB of games over, attached it to my PS5. So far so good!

Just asking. Those that had their PS5's go missing, who was the delivery company?

I have mine coming tomorrow via DPD. Never had a problem with them and since Covid hit they wait for you to answer the door before taking a photo of the package in your open doorstep. Some others, yodel I'm looking at you, just leave parcels wherever they want.

 

[ZG002]

Well that's the Platinum on Astro done.

What a cool little game, really enjoyed it and this controller!

The speed running extra bit is actually really cool, and really enjoyed a trip down memory lane I've had most of the hardware on show.

Sackboy with the Mrs time now.

If it’s with dpd you shouldn’t have any issues.

It does it on the initial setup.
