I am on a list with Sony to buy direct, got an invite last month that was filled with technical issues so no one got any. They resent it for thurs so cross your fingers for me!

Wait that’s the email I got! :lol: that’s technically what prompted this post today as I checked the site and it still said no availability but in the email it did say the 16th so I will check again then. I have no idea what to expect though and I doubt I’ll get lucky this time of year.

 

Last time I was in a queue for ages and got nothing. Tbh I’m expecting the same this time

Get on it now Phil! There’s availability! :o

I got one!!!! Took half a dozen attempts to get through their payment system but made it in the end 🙌🏻

 

Couldn’t get a digital one but went with the disk one instead. Will relegate my poor PS4 to dust status now

Thank you!

 

However, I luckily managed to get one from Argos today :yahoo:

Oh very nice!! Congrats

Congratsss

Anyone that has GTA Trilogy been having problems with it?

Xbox has bought Call of Duty. Playstation responded by buying ... Destiny 2 :/ Xbox has unfortunately won, ans not thanks to good gaming or strategy, or anything lile that, but by strong-arming the market.

Meh doesn’t effect me as I don’t play COD. :lol:

Microsoft and Sony have already started that future Activision and Bungie games will release on either console going forward.

 

Of course, that doesn’t change the fact that Microsoft has the money to buy up the entire industry anyway, but there is no reason Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft can’t all succeed and coexist at the same time.

I finally ordered a PS5 today from the official store online! :dance:

 

If anyone has any tips or suggestions on setup please let me know, I’m hyped that this becomes the fifth different PlayStation model I’ve bought in my lifetime, staying loyal to Sony all these years!

Congratulations!!! I too am a total Sony loyalist!

 

 

So, there’s a special library of PS+ content for new PS5 owners. You can get, for free, a mountain of the best PS4 games. It’s such a good deal. I’d get that on the go asap

 

Remember to use the stand!

 

This is a great guide on the basics:

 

 

Thanks Phil that’s great! I watched the video you shared and there’s lots for me to do once I set up for the first time, I’ll be sure to save PS4 games previously purchased to a external hard drive for ease of storage. Great tips. -_-

I’ve heard that PlayStation are doing an update for the ps5 which allows it to play some ps3 discs. I hope it’s true and they should do it for all ps3 games

Wonderful news. :cheer:

Wonderful news. :cheer:

They should’ve done that from the start like Xbox did. Better late than never. If they’re doing it for selected ps3 games then they gotta do it with GTA IV as it’s one of the most popular ps3 games
