PS4 official European waiting thread - come here and wait with us!

I'm used to Amazon shipping and arriving the next day with Amazon Prime. It's normally alright.

My only worry is that because I live above a business, they may not check properly to see if anyone is there to sign for it!

Will they not leave it at the business? I have a doctors appointment on Friday so may miss it, I had an item come via prime on Monday and it came at like 8AM, I'm hoping for the same to happen.
 
Confirmed, I'm not getting the machine at launch despite having pre-ordered it 5 months.

I have so much rage inside me, I don't know where to unleash it right now. At GAME, here on GAF, against my Starcraft 2 buddies or at my IKEA furniture.

I just want to break something or someone right now. FIVE months and still no launch machine. Let me be the first to say LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

Start camping at ASDA now!
 
Man, that sounds awesome! Seems like the last days have been very good to you, store credit + being #2 is surely something cool :)

Thank you fellow GAFfer, but, actually those Store Credit have been gathered and saved for quite some time, I'm saving them for almost 9 Months now! But it means I can have something like 95% of my PS4 I'll be happy.

Good that you got one Monk, you deserve it based on your behavior in the Steam thread and elsewhere on Gaf.
Feel free to add me if you need someone to play KZ with btw, PSN - Storm-Iz-SiK

Those words are very kind, thank you good sir. :) Now let's wait just a couple of more days.

What store is that?

GAME. ;)

I also could be tempted to grab Knack if my funds allowed. I wanted a relaxing game, with a calm soundtrack so I could play Co-op with my little nephew that I need to take care of every now and then (he's 8 and it seems the perfect co-op fit for him and me). AC4 could be something it could last me some decent time but it will be skipped for now and the same reason, same with NFS Rivals. You guys don't help at all, with all those amazing pick-up posts but I'm happy for everyone having fun with them. Soon, many Euro-GAFfers will be lucky to have quite a couple of decent games to play, I just need to wait for 2014 to get them. :)

You can always send me a angry PM to get that stress out of your System fellow GAFfer. I'm hoping mine for Day One but I would only, truly 100% believe when I hold it myself. Let me (let us) know if there's anything I can do...
 
God, my credit card was eaten by PSN or something, keeps rejecting my attempts to purchase my discounted PS4 games. Think I need to back off for 24 hours due to some kind of lockout.

But fuck me, I bought shit on the 23rd for Vita and everything was fine, think it might be related to the fact that my workplace proxy is located in Singapore and I was trying to buy from there?

Mysteries unending.
 
Amazon are charging and dispatching tomorrow!

Just enquired when they'd be taking money out.

Surely they will despatch on Thursday and send it next day delivery? I really can't wait for an email saying it's been dispatched!! Paranoid about my card being rejected/fire in distribution centre/delivery truck crash etc!!

Where are you from? Some places may still have day one stock...
Actually, you're UK I assume based on the Game comment.. did they take a deposit? Tesco/Asda stores may have them in if you try on Friday.
 
Was just wondering! I know there are some EU countries not getting it at launch. Does everyone have a launch day delivery estimate?

My Killzone bundle is set for the 29th.

My AC:BF was meant to arrive today (next day delivery) but it's not came yet, and it's 5:21PM at the moment...

Gonna start flipping desks if my PS4 is late.

Damn :( that sucks, you should check local supermarkets (Asda/Tesco and stuff) for midnight walk-ins.

Why GAME?
I'm 100% sure I'll be picking up my PS4 at Webhallen this Friday (and dragging it to at Necronomicon musical but that's just my lousy planning).
 
Hello xxxxxx

I'm writing to follow up on our chat conversation.

I’ve checked your order xxxxxx for the Sony PlayStation 4 (PS4) and can see that it was placed on June 11, 2013, with Expedited delivery selected.

Rest assured that we’ll dispatch your order prior to the release day, with the intention that it arrives with you on the actual release day.

If you still have any questions, please let us know by directly replying to this email so that we will help you further.

I hope this helps. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
 
Tiny update for me fellow GAFfers (for those that remember my longer posts at the start of the thread). It seems my local store is going to have a midnight launch. They confirmed today to a family member of mine that went there.

It seems that they will only sell PS4's at midnight to people that have Pre-ordered and it's not a first come, first served but instead it will be based on the date people pre-order. I'm happy to finally use all my store credit/vouchers to I can bring a PS4 for a very, very small price. Which is the best thing, to be honest. Otherwise it would be simply impossible for me.

After he gave my name I found out I'm the order number...

#2 !

I'm so relieved. It's the Bundle with one copy of Killzone by the way.

Can't wait, you all have been great supporters during the high stages of hype and it's great to see that, even with a horrible economy crisis, saving every month a little penny here and there things can come true. I'm also prepared to skip AC4, Knack or NFS Rivals because there's a lack of decent wallet funds, yet, I'm a humble person so I'll accept it.

Thats great new mate :)

See you online friday :D

That was Amazon UK
 
My VITA just died today. I can't imagine receiving a "dead on arrival" PS4 friday... I surely won't try to stay alive to tell the story.

Did you use paypal buy any chance? Lots of peeps who ordered at game using paypal have lost there preorders :(
 
So, my younger brother cancelled his GAME preorder because it was confirmed to be after the 29th, and he still wants one.

What's the best course of action? He can go to Asdas for the thursday midnight release, or try his luck at the local shops, i.e, Sainsburys, Tescos.

Wait... did you pre-order from Game? Why do people do this? Why not Amazon?
 
All those wanting to know when Amazon UK will dispatch. They'll start the process on the 28th November a day before release. Exactly like the XB1.
And every other pre-order...

I think it is funny the amount of people panicking that their pre-order doesn't say shipped yet. What do you expect.

Would you freak out if your One Direction CD hadn't changed to shipped a week ahead of time?

Relax my fellow Europeans. Our time is soon.

I feel totally calm. This is why I pre-ordered with Amazon. So that I could feel calm and relaxed.
 
Just spoke to the people at Shopto as I'd been charged but hadn't heard from them in a while. Apparently 'processing' on my order means it'll be here Friday. 'FUCK YEAH' klaxon

Mate seriously go to ASDA if you can http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/155-asda-stores-offering-ps4s-from-friday-on-a-first-come-first-served-basis/0124916
 
My local GAME had these in(no blue's tho) when I popped in to prepay today, wouldn't let me swap out one of my standard DS4's as apparently pre packaged on the mega bundle, anyone know if that's true?

Yeah that's true, the ones that come with your Mega Bundle will be loose. You should maybe see if you can trade it in though and pay a little extra for a coloured.
I ordered a Red one and I'm giving my nephews the spare black one out of the bundle for Christmas with the PS4 I got them.

Ok, thanks for that. I'll wait until the blue ones are available.
 
Can't believe so many are getting antsy about amazon not changing any status yet.

Could be worse, despite having regular emails about my order (What bundle? Payment. Payment conformation) I haven't had any visible order information on the GAME website since I ordered back in June.
 
I'm getting pretty worried about getting one on Friday, a colleague at work said she was sure she wasn't getting hers anymore and I could get her Game preorder. I would order one from Asda but I have about £235 on a Game gift card :(
 
My Asda order hasn't budged either, still order placed. Not worrying yet mind you. If I recall they processed the Xbox One orders on the Wednesday last week, so will see tomorrow.
 
amazon just shipped my bf and send me a preorder code … . We are sooo close guys…so close. Oh and release for BF is on the 28th but the shipped it today and its due to arrive tomorrow. So maaaaybe they ship the ps4 a day to early too.
