Honestly I wish Sony or any of the big 3 wouldn't allow these multiple preorders.
I was hoping Sony would tie preorders down to a PSN account, so people cut down on this bullshit.
Sony mada a nice tweet, everything is forgiven !humble sony is back
Too late Sony you already pissed off alot of people and probably lost some customer to Xbox
P.s i already got my pre order through BB
Xbox could have the same problem as well.
It will. Either bb or Amazon will break street date and Ms won't do a thing about it just like Sony did.
The best part is the limited edition ps5 drawing($450) and.....$30 shippingeBay has some awesome listings of PS5.
One guy (not shown) was selling his Sony Invite this morning.

What a free for all that was.
When Keighley did that controller review and talked to that Sony exec, the exec said preorder dates would be announced early.
Looks like Sony turn the tap on asap (next day after the showcase) to get ahead of Xbox preorders the week after.
Their communication in general "could've been smoother". Instead, both Sony and MS were playing chicken throughout the year with fucking unspectacular drip-feed of streams. I know that Covid is a problem but the PS5 and XSX launches were handled as if both companies never did any consumer hardware before. And it boggles the mind that the PR departments of both companies think that letting Phil Spencer and Jim Ryan speak is a good idea.
Yeah, but I think the best times for Sony were when Jack Tretton was CEO.Its certainly a different Sony to the days of Andrew House and Shawn Layden
Sonys tweet is completely bullshit.
What are they planning to do? Sure, producing more units, but this will take time...
Or did they found 1 million units which they forgot in a warehouse at the Airport?
Fact is, this thing will be hard to get for 90% of the potential customers till the end of 2020 even longer.
The demand is fucking huge!
more like ppl don't be smart enough to keep an eye on retailersIs that sonys fault or more the retailers?
Just to be clear. The night of the event, when retailers rushed to open pre-orders, that was on them.
But Sony was planning on opening pre-orders the next day anyway.
They wanted chaos to hype the console more. Having said that, it would never have worked if there wasn't a high demand in the first place.
It's not peoples fault. It's everyone else who bought one cause they're all scalpers. All of them. It's the retailers fault cause their websites didn't wait for people who weren't paying attention to order. It's Sony's fault for not giving 14 days notice of preorders. It's not like people who wanted one could reasonably expect that the PS5 was going to go on sale sometime before release date. You know just like the PS4 Pro and the PS4 and the PS3.more like ppl don't be smart enough to keep an eye on retailers
I'm sure a lot of these retailers will have enough of them collecting dust in their warehouse, you wont have to worry about lack of availability.It will. Either bb or Amazon will break street date and Ms won't do a thing about it just like Sony did.
It's an empty threat. No way MS will deny them consoles and piss off those that did pre-order.Not sure why people place so much blame on SONY, Microsoft is literally having to threaten retailers to stop them from doing what was done with PS5, not sure SONY should be expected to do that.
You are, here. We don't pretend to be morally superior here, floating above everyone else.... we embrace our humanity, faults and libido.Ring-a-ding-ding (am I allowed to say that in 2020?!)
Same, instore was the way to go.At least they're shipping enough consoles, it's quite rough on the other side.

Easily secured my preorder + Pulse 3D in store instead of online BS.

They just invent new rules on the fly to ban people...Phew, I already got a ban from (unmentionable) forum just because my view didn't match with the whippersnappers![]()
