Support NeoGAF

[onQ123]

I don't understand what's going on here.

 

[Stereogatari]

94 people will be there by midnight I'm sure. The only chance you have is to go right now. I'd go right now but my parents would not approve.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

Yeah they only have 94 tho and the 2 days after its regular priced and they have 50 for each day.

Pretty jealous of you guys who get one. I would go nuts to be able to get a second one fort bedroom at that price

 

[SuicidalSteve]

Brick Lane? Shit.

Ah well, the queue will be *ludicrous*.

Its somewhere near brick lane ;-P

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

I almost just booked a train from Birmingham.

Almost.

Good job sony. Good job.

 

[Savantcore]

94 people will be there by midnight I'm sure. The only chance you have is to go right now. I'd go right now but my parents would not approve.

That's what's putting me off. I don't mind going early but fuck staying in Brick Lane all night.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Almost 100% of those will hit eBay for insane profit.

Color me unimpressed for other reasons besides the clear attraction to scalpers.

 

[Ashes]

Probably by Boxpark Shoreditch. That's were all these pop up things tend to happen.
I have some memorabilia but I'm not sure I actually want to give it away. :/

 

[migh_and_highty]

Harsh for those of us who dont live in London, plus why £20. People are gonna buy it, so make it full price and give it to charity.

 

[Savantcore]

You have to give it away?

 

[Stereogatari]

That's what's putting me off. I don't mind going early but fuck staying in Brick Lane all night.

Exactly. But damn that price. Damn everything!

 

[Visualante2]

That's what I'm thinking. If I left now I might be able to get in a queue.. but I don't know if I really want to spend all night out there and not get something, like I was in the "wrong queue" or some BS. Or worse have my phone stolen.

 

[Certinty]

I wouldn't actually mind one. But I have an exam at 9.30 tomorrow so that sucks. Figured even for the retail price it would be good to sell my current PS4 and replace it with one with warranty remaining.

 

[Ashes]

You have to give it away?

If you don't, then I'm in.

 

[Sify64]

I wish I could line up for the deal... But I have to go to work early

 

[Tregard]

I almost just booked a train from Birmingham.

Almost.

Good job sony. Good job.

Try a bit further North West for me (Derry).

Hey NornIronGAF!

 

[Get_crazy]

Oh, Sony, now you're just being mean

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

I'd go, but it's tower hamlets, so NOPE

PlayStation UK ‏@PlayStationUK 1 minute ago
Can't join us? Stay tuned for more further 20th Anniversary activities where you can purchase online starting from Monday!

That's better. If France had 300, no way the UK would only have 194. Expect at least 100 available for online.

 

[jwk94]

So people in Europe get three days to get it while US got one day....I feel like I got screwed over.

EDIT:
PLUS an online offer later? Yeah, definitely got screwed over.

 

[Rajang]

First the FFVII troll, now this?

 

[Kane1345]

I really want to go and get one but fuck staying in Brick Lane overnight. Going tomorrow morning (no matter how early) is going to lead to failure. Gonna have to see about getting online instead, dammit

 

[Rurunaki]

Oh, Sony, now you're just being mean

Just.. just.. come on now Sony

 

[Bricky]

That's one heck of a deal. You better queue up as soon as possible or you'll regret it if you live anywhere nearby.

Also, that password, lol. Wasn't the FF7 annoucement enough trolling for one week Sony?

 

[bombshell]

So I went to my local fish mongers and bought a giant crab. Will they accept this as Sony memorabilia?

lol

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Hey NornIronGAF!

The console honestly doesn't mean enough to me. Id only pick it up to flip it. Better someone buy it to treasure it.

 

[Stilton Disco]

Funk balls. I have both my boss coming over from Canada tomorrow and a stinking cold, otherwise I'd be off in a heart beat.

Fuck knows what I'd take though, I stupidly sold off or traded in most of my cool stuff as an idiot teenager. I'd hope just games or an old pre dualshock controller would count.

 

[mrklaw]

Surely if there is a queue that would be safe-ish?

 

[Savantcore]

Ahhhh don't know what to do! I live like ten minutes away from Brick Lane. So tempted but really don't want to stay out overnight. If I don't get mugged I'll definitely freeze to death.

 

[jwk94]

Is Brick Lane a bad place or something?

 

[Savantcore]

Is Brick Lane a bad place or something?

All of East London is a bad place.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Is Brick Lane a bad place or something?

Pretty sure someone got stabbed there today or yesterday, so I guess so.

 

[Kane1345]

All of East London is a bad place.

Truth

Spoiler

(sorry East London gaffers )

 

[SpotAnime]

It's actually a cool idea. Glad they are doing something retail and online.

And dat price, holy shit. In for 10.

 

[Bumhead]

Next train from Sheffield to London is at 20:48.

If I had more cash right now, I'd be on it. Bleurgh.

Having ruled out ever owning one of these for anything less than scalp prices, I'm just curious what other PlayStation swag they'll be selling from Monday.

 

[Seanspeed]

Fuck, I'm going out of the country tomorrow..

 

[Tempy]

Brick Lane sounds like a bad place.

 

[Savantcore]

I just know I'm gonna get there and get selected and then totally forget the password.

 

[FinalStageBoss]

19.94 for the console? Wtf

 

[Jotaka]

They posted that there will be security there... Some could check it out if there are security placed by now... if there is... go for it

 

[wrestleman]

That Crash poster thing is an old, old, old drawing/poster thing from the original Naughty Dog website's Crash section from like... the early 2000s. There's a Spyro poster in the video too, the whole shop in the video is PS1 themed after all.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Brick Lane is a dodgy place but can be a nice place as well.

 

[Marvel]

£20? lol the fuck...

 

[Delusibeta]

Ladies and gentlemen, the Grand Omega Bomba, possibly the best deal (with caveats, sure) that NeoGaf will ever see.

There will be absolute carnage.

 

[Kane1345]

They posted that there will be security there... Some could check it out if there are security placed by now... if there is... go for it

If there is security there now I would probably go if I could get my mate to go as well.

 

[MilkyJoe]

That's what's putting me off. I don't mind going early but fuck staying in Brick Lane all night.

You would freeze to death tonight

 

[Tregard]

£20? lol the fuck...

£19.94 even! Think of all the wonderful things you could buy with that additional 6 pence!

 

[Stereogatari]

You would freeze to death tonight

But the NOSTALGIA will keep me warm.

 

[Visualante2]

Last train into London for me leaves at 11pm. If there's a chance I'm down for a 10 hour queue. Just need some info from the street about what is happening, how the queue is forming up.

 

[mingo]

I'm so tempted... no work tomorrow... but fuck me its bloody cold outside. I might take a drive to see if there is a queue later!
