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

Apparently the PS4 won't be officially released in Malta before 2014.

According to the local retail store Forestals,
SONY have confirmed that the official release date for PS4 for Malta is early 2014

We are attempting to secure some stock before this date, however at this stage we cannot guarantee availability before the official date

Those that pre ordered may claim their deposit back WHILST still remaining on the priority preorder list.
 
Now I kinda wish I did order in-store for the midnight launches. DPD better not take too long to deliver xD I wake up (if i even get to sleep on friday) and see the drivers 1 hour window isn't until 5pm or something i'll cry D:
 
The PS App should be able to work on both iPhone and iPad? Says compatible with them both anyway.

It is, it's just the scaled-up iPhone version on the iPad though, with black borders around it.

Looks like this:

Not ideal. :(
 
Pre-paid for my PS4 today, 100% confirmed for Thursday night... it's going to be a long two days.

PlayStation 4 Killzone Bundle
Assassin's Creed 4
Battlefield 4
FIFA 14
Extra DualShock 4
Extended Warranty

All in all came to £574... had a gift card I'd been holding on to for special usage, came in handy today.

Still tempted to add NFS Rivals to that bundle though come launch night.
 
Do you think changing my Amazon delivery address this late on would mess things up? Tempted to get it delivered to work instead to make sure there's someone to sign for it.
 
You're now connected to Amazon from Amazon.co.uk
Me:Hi, was just wondering when my PS4 will be dispatched?
Amazon:Hello, my name is Jamie. if you give me a moment I'll take a look at that for you.
Me:Hi Jamie, thanks.
Amazon:Okay, your order should be dispatching tonight or tomorrow morning for delivery on Friday
Doubt it will be tonight but I wouldn't bet against tomorrow. Would be far easier if Amazon started dispatching PS4s over 2 days and apparently the only reason they dispatched Xbox Ones on Thursday was because Microsoft didn't want anyone to receive one early I read somewhere.
 
From the 10 minutes I watched on Giant bomb I can safe I'm definitely interested in it. Looks a lot of fun, I just wonder how much there is to it.

The gameplay is a bit monotonous, but I think it's kinda relaxing. I'm sure it'll be my number one game to play with the Vita in bed before going to sleep. You can try the original flash game to get a feel for it (it's a bit dated though): Motherload
There's also a (pretty good) clone and its sequel for iOS: I Dig It and I Dig It Expeditions

The PS App should be able to work on both iPhone and iPad? Says compatible with them both anyway.

It's compatible because it runs on the iPad, but there's no dedicated UI yet.
 
Got my ShopTo email...

I guess I can shut up about that now. Hope those of you still waiting will get yours soon :)

I am in the opposite situation with Shopto. I have my delivery address set as work by default and forgot to change back to my home address. There is no way I am changing it now, even though I have booked the day off work for fear of mucking things up. Will collect it from work when it's delivered.

Will be a lot of F5 pressing on the tracking page that day!
 
Got confirmation from my local store that I am set to receive my preorder as part of the first wave, and can come pick it up at a midnight launch :D.
 
Not long now fellow GAFfers. Got a spend £60 get £30 off code sent from very this morning. Just purchased £60 worth of PSN cards using the code, delivered on the 29th as well, love a good bargain :)
 
Welp my original plan of John Lewis in morning or Asda at midnight is fucked.

My Dad wants to get it from John Lewis online which doesn't show it on sale till midnight of release. Which means I won't get it till Saturday at the earliest ffs. That's assuming I managed to get an order through in the inevitable rush. Would extra charge delivery get it sent same day?

It's especially annoying since this is the first time he's ok with getting hardware online.
 
Right, Ill share my story!

Ordered with Amazon on August 21st, action pack. Been talking to Amazon every so often for the past 7 days making sure everything is OK. I had to add a replacement bank card to my account due it expiring 11/13. They said it will have no bearing on my order, so after I added my card checked my order and still said delivery for Friday.

This morning I apply a gift card to my account and then my delivery date changed to "AFTER XMAS"! Was like WTF…so spoke to Amazon chat and was told its fine i will have it Friday, but had a feeling I was being told this to shut me up.

Just got home from work and checked the forum and noticed users have dispatch times! So got back on to Amazon and was told a different story, now being told I will have an update in 48 hours (Thursday night, which is too late for Friday delivery). From then I said I wanted to speak with a manager because this is not on….and they agreed

Amazon called me up and said they are going to speak directly with the warehouse and have it sorted and call me back in 30 mins…

If I was you guys who ordered with Amazon and made ANY changes, even applied a gift card….get on to them ASAP

Wish me luck :(

Do not change any details on your Amazon order at this stage. Any changes and you won't get it on Friday. Ignore what any customer support person will say.
 
Guys. I decided to cancel my german Killzone bundle and to go all in on friday.

It's going to be war. Wish me luck.

well dude i don´t think you are going to get one. Everybody said that they are sold out completely. Unless you visit the sony store in berlin this is.
 
Shopto said:
Your order has been packed with DPD " Next Business Day" Delivery 9am to 6pm Mainland and it's on the way to you.

It's happening!

So far I found two stores. One told me they have 4-5 consoles, the other one told me to call them again on thursday for an exact number.

But... but... you'd be fighting a war against us. The other Europeans waiting for a PS4.

Oh dear, it's happening. We're turning against each other... in the fight for the mighty Sony PlayStation Four.

Sorry dude. War never changes.
