Yeah hopefully.
I've never had any trouble getting my consoles day one in previous generations. Was just worried that this time they will be really supply constrained.
Give us the pre order date now Sony!

Game UK now available to pre-order.
I pre-ordered the Disc version with an extra controller for £510.
I may well go with Amazon but incase they launch pre orders at a time I miss at least I've secured a day one console.
Still want to hear more about BC but glad Demon Souls isn't PC exclusive or I'd have spent a lot more money getting a PC

Yeah I was irritated. Given how strong X Box is here as well as America. I think it's simply logistics that are already in place though. They probably rushed America to meet the X Box launch. Places like Australia is a weird choice but it's probably coincidental to when the stock would naturally be available.
Outside of my pettiness it's only 7 days

I remember when we used to have to wait months or years after Japan and USA so 1 week is not a biggie (albeit annoying)

Maybe they’ve given us an extra week to ensure more consoles get here for launch

Didn't expect it to sell out that fast. It's so late in the UK as well.

Something tells me they aren't making many digital versions. I ended up getting a disc version ordered from GAME. O registered to pre-order with Shopto at the start of the year, so hopefully will be able to get a digital from them tomorrow, then see if a mate wants to take the disc one.

Tried Game but their whole website is a mess at the moment. Can't log into my account, and when I try to actually pre-order one, an error comes up as soon as I try to pay for it. Shopto probably won't start taking pre-orders till around 8 or 9am. Although, Shopto did take 1p from my account back in June... and it does come under pre-order in my account. We'll have to wait and see.

Same here, didn't get a confirmation email. I have the confirmation page though and order number. My brother ordered a few minutes after me and got a confirmation email straight away. Getting a bit worried now..

I don't think they've sold out at all. I think they may have stopped people from pre-ordering them. They weren't supposed to start pre-orders till the morning in any case.
As I said, the Game website is a mess at the moment. Can't log into my account, and you get an error message as soon as it's about to take the payment.

That's great.
If I can grab a preorder from Amazon tomorrow morning for the disk version I'll go ahead with that along side Demon Souls and cancel my GAME preorder then.
I trust Amazon UK allot more than GAME tbh.

Yesterday after the livestream I updated all current shops - nothing. This morning I look again and all shops are sold out. There was no announcement about the pre-order, how can you get a console if the pre-order starts quietly and secretly at 1am at night. That is so stupid. And I certainly won't pay anybody on eBay money for it, who wants to get rich at the expense of the fans.
Very has the ps5 in stock right now.

I also just pre-ordered mine on Amazon.
Game and Shopto websites are a mess at this point.

Staff discount can be used on consoles. Pre ordered disc version at game with all the goodies, also got one pre ordered with amazon as back up.I'd be surprised if discounts work on consoles, the margin is so thin as it is.

Holy crap that was effortless. Pre-ordered on Amazon
Not sure if I'll keep it...just preordering for the sake of it. I might decide I do want it lol. It's a back up if I can't get the Xbox or decide not to get it.

Are you on mobile? Was doing the same for me. If you are on mobile try changing to desktop mode. That worked for me.
