it kicked me out of the queue. Fucking sony server, i had both console in the cart for more than 15 minutes, got an error everytime i tried to confirm the payment. fucking incredible.

 

[emivita]

No luck for the Pro limited bundle. Oh well.

 

[FingerBang]

Grrrr I'm in after the queue but there's absolutely nothing different ?? No Pro or limited.... (BTW I'm in Italy....).....

A friend was in your situation and just managed to get a Pro 30th edition.

 

[Radical_3d]

Me at the reveal: what a rip off! This is not worth it! Maybe when there is a bundle…

Me today with a 30th anniversary:

 

[Kindjal]

I got in the queue and was able to see the 30th anniversary bundle. It was already sold out and it cost 1099.99 € in Spain.

 

[Mr.ODST]

Anyone from UK preordered or does it open at 10am?

 

[TheTony316]

fucking hell, it's not possible to buy anything, there is an error everytime you confirm the payment

Same haha

That means it was already sold out, but their shopping system is as shitty as their queue system and it takes some time to show the sold out message.

 

[gooner4life_uk]

I thought the pre-orders went live at 10am?

 

[Fafalada]

I got in but limited edition was already out of course.
And no Sony - I'm not pre-ordering regular - f#### ###.

 

[JusticeForAll]

Preordered the basic PS5 Pro without any trouble in the belgian PS Direct. I didn't really want the limited one, since it's behind my tv anyway.

 

[Life Diff]

It's just a waiting room. The queue part starts after the waiting room.

One thing us brits love is a good waiting room and queue

 

[cormack12]

Does anyone know if you can add more than one console, or if you can add an LE and a Pro?

 

[CloudShiner]

One thing us brits love is a good waiting room and queue

If it were a fair queue, I'd agree with you!

 

[DavidGzz]

I thought the pre-orders went live at 10am?

Time zones. Different countries.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

Same here. I wanted to check the order and see if I could buy any extras but it puts you back in the queue. Already got the digital pro. I’m ok with that.

Got through and my pre-order has been registered, so all's good.

Can't seem to find a stand though, guess I'll see if MediaMarkt or Bol has one.

 

[TheTony316]

Still getting an error message when i confirm my purchase.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Time zones. Different countries.

So over 6 hours until it is available in the US?

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Anyone from UK preordered or does it open at 10am?

Think it is 10 am yes, still in waiting room for the queue.

 

[cormack12]

W00t! It's still the as it was an hour ago :-|

 

[Kenneth Haight]

W00t! It's still the as it was an hour ago :-|

 

[nnytk]

I didn't care for the limited bundle. Bought a regular Pro (don't own a PS5) and I'm really happy! I can't wait to play Stellar Blade, Astrobot and Dragon's Dogma 2!

 

[Shane89]

That means it was already sold out, but their shopping system is as shitty as their queue system and it takes some time to show the sold out message.

damn, more than 15 minutes to update? fucking hell.. anyway, got the pro through the mobile phone. through pc was impossibile, fucking sony

 

[TrebleShot]

Anyone from UK preordered or does it open at 10am?

Nothing yet, in a call and nervously checking it like a crack addict. Queue is already paused.

 

[TheTony316]

Crap, got an error message when i wanted to confirm my order and it's out of stock now

 

[TheTony316]

Same.

 

[TrebleShot]

30th Anniversary?

 

[rotorfire]

[Gerdav]

I been in the uk queue since just after 8am, its been paused and hasn't moved a inch the whole time, I suspect it'll start moving at 10am or just before.

 

[Gaiff]

Someone is trying to eliminate the competition. A huge company meeting has been moved to 10 am in the middle of the night.

I’ll pretend I didn’t notice.

 

[FireChaka]

¿Alguien sabe si se puede agregar más de una consola, o si se puede agregar una LE y una Pro?

yeah Pro 30th Aniversary and Pro Standard (Ps Direct Spain)

 

[panda-zebra]

Did not expect the vanilla Pro to sell out in places like Germany... hmmm, maybe securing one for launch day won't be as trivial as some have said.

 

[alstrike]

Already going for €3k on Ebay…

To say I’m tempted to scalp tf out of this thing would be an understatement

Edit: Or €5k

 

[Cakeboxer]

 

[Moses85]

Germany, absolutely Zero Chance for the LE…

Ordered a normal Pro instead… will decide in the next weeks if I will keep my pre order.

 

[TheTony316]

30th Anniversary?

Nope standard. I had it in the cart for 15 minutes.

 

[Calverz]

This appears to be a better system used in the UK than what they did for the 20th anniversary edition PS4. That was a complete shit show thanks to game uk.

 

[cormack12]

Ten mins to go

 

[Doctor Hades]

Anyone from UK preordered or does it open at 10am?

No. Queue still paused for me. I am fully expecting the server to crash either when the queue unpauses or when I add the item to the basket and go to check out.

Not stressing out about it too much. If I cannot pre-order one now then I'll try again on 10th October. I will get once eventually even if it might not be at launch.

 

[KURDISTAN YPG]

Ight is almost 4 am here in tennesssee still no update on ps direct

 

[Radioskugga]

I could not get the 30th edition so I settled with the regular PS5 Pro. No regrets!

 

[rotorfire]

Ten mins to go

 

[Eimran]

So the pro ship has sailed.

Any chance the regular anniversary edition will come back in stock? Or is it also 12 300 units like the pro?

 

[Lambogenie]

didn't gaf members help each other out with the game mechanic though. That was positive (the community spirit).

Still, these LE should be made for at least 1-2 year runs. It's a long legacy brand, there's absolutely no reason to not have just made a simpler PS1 colour only (no pattern grain details) as a short-term run. The controller should also be a 3 year run, and throw in a superior PS2 colourway too.

 

[Pedro Motta]

Was placed in a queue here in Portugal, let's see how it goes....

 

[sono]

didn't gaf members help each other out

Yes absolutely team spirit in the finest British traditions.

As your squad leader I will step up and save you waiting and let you know when you can preorder

 

[PatientGamer]

to scalp or not to scalp... that is the question on my mind

 

[Soodanim]

I'm hoping the controllers can be bought from other retailers as suggested

 

[TheTony316]

I'll try again in 2 weeks.

 

[Lambogenie]

Times are tough.
