i got the email from amazon offering me a bundle last week, chose gamer bundle, the picture has changed on my order page to the kz with 2 controllers and a camera, i was just wondering can we ask for a different coloured second controller or do we not have the option?

also amazon.com are emailing ppl saying they can ship part of the order early, that part being the controller....man i would love to get my hands on that thing early.

I wish, but not given this option unfortunately.
 
Think those with orders in game will be asked to come in and pay before launch. Just nip in on release and pick it up. This also let's them know how many they can sell to the public

Yeah I just saw it - so want that, love the white DS3s, just never bothered to import one. Hoping to see how easy it is to take apart. Hopefully see a teardown regards the battery etc...

I do hope the car sounds are better than the Gran Turismo series, they have been laughably poor. Coming from Forza I have higher standards than if I had come from Gran Turismo.

I hope you're suggesting forza is better for sounds and nothing more. GT is clearly the better game overall, by far :)

I must admit I'm starting to really look forward to getting my hands on this machine.. I reckon its due to how my life has changed, kids, missus etc and this will be the first time i've purchased a games console on launch (or got a launch console as missus is paying for it) in quite some time..

Its gonna be all hype I know, but I'm still looking forward to it..
 
For those who updated their Amazon orders in some way and it pushed the delivery date back, go to the order and change the delivery option. Set it to expedited 1 day and confirm. Should reset the date back to 29 November.

Worked for me.
 
Does anyone know if Need for Speed : Rivals will offer the £10 upgrade from current gen to next gen? I thought they said it in one of their conferences, but my google searching so far has been fruitless? Will hold off for Next Gen if it isn't upgradable.

You can upgrade it on Amazon, though if you're talking about the code in the box then that's something I'm not sure about.
 
OK with all the XO stuff happening, Ive been trying to find out more about the PS4, because lets be honest with only a few weeks to go theres still a lot to discover and the apparent silence is getting annoying.

Id rather be prepared/informed than to have my head in the sand ;).

So far it looks like there are gonna be concerns about journalists having the ability to review and edit direct-feed PS4 footage as they arent being given PS4 dev kits and with the retail PS4 at launch having HDCP protection for games theyll have to go a roundabout way to get that so thats not ideal, but I dont think it affects informed consumers, nor the built in sharing.

Sony EU did promise that we would see more UI/OS stuff on the blog but I havent seen anything other than the details regards digital DRM (tbh I dont actively read the blog so may have missed announcements), which just sound much of a muchness that we had with the PS3. Ive not actively been looking out for this stuff, but we have only had teasers (Yosp tweeting a screenshot lfrom PS4) and not a real demo of the whole OS/UI. It seems this might be tied into the whole press presentation Sony want to do which includes PS4 PSN, the problem is that its quite late in the day (days before US launch IIRC?!?)to find this stuff out especially if there are issues (and to be candid, I expect issues with PSN compared to XBL just because of their history)

Im glad theyve announced that 300MB patch and ALL the things its adds/fixes, day one patch(es) no doubt were expected, shame suspend/resume isnt part of day one features, but right now for me its incidental if its there or not if theres more important things for Sony to work on.

I know there are other things but only heard tidbits from people here and NeoGAF is just a bit mental over the last week or so - be grateful if people can add anything they think is credible and their take on it because it at least leads to useful discussion and information.

Someone mentioned PS4 overheating on the XO thread so Id like to find the source of that as thats the only hardware issue Ive seen so far, rest of it just revolves around Sony just being really pushed getting the OS/UI/PSN ready which seems to have led me to make this post...

The only 'overheating' PS4 so far was the one that was locked inside a plastic box with no airflow, the Blue LED strip turned red and it shutdown to protect the hardware. The PS4 was then removed from the case and turned back on within seconds.
 
Yeah Im aware of that, theres also a French video where Knack starts to stutter, but that seems to blame disk errors rather than overheating - be nice to get to the bottom of it though.

Posted in the xbox thread. It was reported to be a disk issue afterwards. Not sure where unseen it.

Never mind me just read your full post
