They probably won't recognise it until is been scanned and in the delivery system maybe?. Scan Tuesday, packed and ready to go to local depot Wednesday, out for Thursday?

 

[DonJorginho]

They were always going to do this. Nothing has changed.

Exactly, just nice to get confirmation, can't wait!

 

[Danieljay1]

Its been a bloody long week. In hindsight, I remember thinking "Its only 2 months"

I have 3 days left at work, so counting them down is an extra bonus

its getting even slower the closer we get dont help with the US getting it first seeing videos everywhere

On the plus side, hopefully Sony will aim to push a day one patch to coincide with the EU release to iron out the few issues there has been

I really REALLY hope so!

They are slow with updates but i hope so

And just had an email pop through for Demon's Souls getting delivered tomorrow.

By DPD as well which strikes me as a bit overkill, but at least I'll actually receive it, won't end up on the roof or something.

Which store and when did you order?

 

[chigstoke]

Ordered from Base on Friday after Game Collection cancelled on me the day before release.

Did you read the email it says it'll take up to 24hrs for tracking to work.

 

[Hostile_18]

Next gen has been so expensive. Pretty sure I'm set for along time now though. Next year will just be the odd game like Horizon 2.

Yeah. I think the tracking numbers are more than 9 digits for starters. The one from Argos is 10 and I don’t think that’s the tracking number either as I’m sure DPD is a mixture of numbers with a letter at the end.

 

[Roufianos]

It'll be dispatched Wednesday and out for delivery on Thursday.

Ah fair enough, got false hope of an earlier release for a moment

Not long to go now mandem.

I feel you brother, need these next few days to fly by.

Anyone else ordered from Amazon have any idea how they will package the console? I ordered a 4k monitor last week and they just slapped the label on and sent it do people think they will do this with the PS5 or actually box it properly?

You should be able to change the order to a gift which should hide the contents anyway.

But Amazon shouldn't be that stupid, surely? I know Smyths are sending some out in the original box due to the size of the PS5.

It won't let me select gift maybe as it's too close to dispatch. I hope they aren't that stupid but maybe lazy for sure.

 

[NewChoppa]

Was checking through my emails and found one from ShopTo in my Junk folder that said I was next in line for my PS5!

Problem is, I kinda thought I wasn’t getting this shit till like next month at the earliest and stopped budgeting to prepare.


So much pain...

I feel for you brother, maybe try and get a Digital if you can afford one?

I would happily send some cash or something to help but my payday isn't till the 25th.

See if they do payment plans brother? Hoping you get one sorted.

Dead Space is included in EA Play which you have access to via your GP Ultimate subscription. so unless your GP isn't ultimate, I would have spared the Dead Space cash.
Also I'm shocked that it's possible to get a 2TB SSD for the PS5 while the only compatible SSD for the XSX costs over 220.
On the good side, for less than the price of a high end PC, you got yourself set for the next 7 years, so congrats.

Might still be able to get it secured. I’ll keep the thread posted - really appreciate you offering to send me money, it honestly means a lot!

Would do but you're a United fan

It's all good brother, I don't normally offer cash around but seeing as I knew how hard you were trying for one I would have happily helped you out and I apologise that I can't due to timings on payday.

I sincerely hope you get one, so I can invade your world in Demon's Souls.

[Zero7]

Mine is awaiting dispatch from Simply Games. I pray i get it day 1, I'm having to self isolate and it's driving me crazy as it is.

Game and Amazon confirmed so far. I recommend that you have Stock Informer open all day with audible alerts.

I've probably spent equivalent as I got a new tv at the same time - haven't bought any games yet!!

Yeah absolutely its limited to storing PS4 games on it, but that frees up the main SSD for just PS5 games. I didn't realise about Dead Space but they were only 2.99 a game in the sale, so I'm happy.

Oh god no, I wish haha. I saved up for ages to get all that. Started the beginning of 2019. Just as much as someone buying a new PC rig etc .

 

[Roufianos]

Launch day. Gonna need to be quick though, make sure you're logged in on Game and Amazon with a saved payment method. Keep track of this thread too in case anywhere else posts about new stock.

I was only joking. That's the trouble with the internet, posts have no tone of voice!

My Currys order now says "Order confirmed", pretty sure it was "Order received" yesterday and this morning but I could just be going mad.
