On a more positive note Astro Bot is pure joy. Just watched my five year old complete it, he needed a little help but did most of it by himself. We’re collecting all the artefacts now.

So downloaded and updated modern warfare, been playing since yesteday and now I put the disc in and it is asking to delete it and install it again. So I need to download 190GB AGAIN

Just had my first crash, Days Gone had no audio at all, so forced quit of the game and it got stuck on the 'Closing this app or game' screen. Hold power button for 10-15 seconds and all good, phew.

Days Gone has always had a random audio glitch to be fair. I had it happen 2 or 3 times on the pro.

Lol what, plenty of people were "prepared" and still got nothing at all. Try again mate.

When I ordered mine from Argos they had already been selling for at least 10 minutes. Checking the post history here, it would appear they still weren't sold out for at least an hour. If someone was absolutely determined to get one they had the opportunity.

What century are you living in? One for every room in the house is just the basic these days.
Not being able to game while on the throne would be devastating! Just need to find a waterproof VR headset for shower gaming.

to be fair, I do get withdrawal when I'm doing the dishes or digging the garden. Even walking up and down stairs is awful.... How do I game during these moments of darkness!? I might get Farming Simulator so I can just do away with the gardening, period.

Amazon just rang me back. Only option is a refund which they’ve just processed

Yeah restarted and it was fine, no bother. Runs great though, and looks really good!!

I've not yet played a 'proper' next gen game (apart from Astro) on my PS5 Miles Morales is downloading at the moment, only 40GB thank god.

After putting in a lot of hours on the original Spider-Man it's really weird seeing Peter with a different face.

Voice sounds the same, don't think they needed to make this change though.

I'm going to try monster hunter world as it's 'free' never really played it before

I didn't actually order my ps5 from Argos until about 6:00 on the morning of 18th September. Still managed to get one........

Gutted for you pal. Try the discord auto alert for stockinformer. That's how I got mine. Good luck.

I was a bit concerned about the size of the PS5 - not fitting vertically on my shelves/where my PS4 was - and not really liking the asymmetrical look of it when horizontal. BUT, nobody ever showed it side on, and I think it looks really smart being off-white with the PS5 cut out. So, I've made it look like a book .

Looks good there, I'd give it some more room at the back though, the vast majority of the heat gets expelled at the bottom half on the rear, which won't have much/any room based on the pic above.

Move the books to the left/behind and you'll be fine.

Loving the look of this system! I feel like I've added a mouth to my speakers eyes!

That's funny. Cigar and deep voice.

My controller won't charge using the USB port on the front? Charges on my Series X and on a phone charger.

The port charges when the console is on?

Edit: Just been reading its a common problem with the frony USB port.

Mine have been charging fine at the front. Is the port defective?

Maybe someone on here with half a dozen will sell one if you struggle

Amazon just refunded me 450 for the ps5 that wasnt delivered. Plus 10 gift card. Still annoyed. But when I compare refunds I'm waiting from virgin Atlantic since April I can't moan I suppose.
