Poll: *The Official PlayStation 5 (PS5) Thread*

Got my shipping notification for Lego Star Wars: Skywalker Saga Deluxe Edition . That is the first game I have preordered in years, let alone paid full price for, but it is going to be worth it for couch co-op.

If it's going through all nine movies, it'll take aeons to finish. Definitely should get your money's worth.

I relented and bought the digital version (even though I have a disc ps5). My thinking is then the kids can start it easily, and may want to play it again when I eventually finish it.

Oh definitely, looks like it is going to be epic. My daughter is twenty now but we are still going to be playing this together. Always good to have that chillout time, especially as we will finish watching Peacemaker tonight .

So I noticed that the series X was available for some time on the likes of Amazon which tells me that stock is getting better, I was expecting an increase in PS5 availabilty but nothing has changed.

When is it going to get better?! It's been well over a year now.

The demand for the ps5 is through the roof I believe.

yeh on the discord stock checker they sell out in minutes unless their a bundle then they can stay a bit, when i got mine the stock checker notification was from the day before and i think i got the last one, got it with horizon forbidden west and a logitech head set plus a 1tb western digital m2 drive.

guess the scalpers couldnt turn a profit on it but cost £700 quid, cant remember if it was argos or currys i got it from.

I finished peacemaker a couple of weeks ago. I don't know if it was meant to be a comedy but I laughed hard a lot, especially at that dance at the begining.

Oh it is so good, laughing so much. My wife doesn't watch it but she saw the opening dance and loved it. Didn’t get to finish it last night so double episode finale tonight.

LEGO SW is in RMs hand in Birmingham sorting office, so will hopefully be with me on Monday . I usually buy digital but £47 was too good a price and my son can have the Blue Milk Luke for his collection.

Thanks.

Worked for me but had to use a different browser and log in.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Well that's me with Premium until 2026 (in theory)

 

[Random Guy Esq.]

That's awesome, thanks! I played safe and went as far as 2025 myself.

Cheers I've updated my original post with the correct link.

Skywalker Saga installing from disc as we speak, and downloading files needed. Just need to add character pack codes. About 30 mins u til it is ready to play unless my WiFi decides to speed up .

Cheers I've updated my original post with the correct link.

thanks that worked for me only upto june 2024 thats two years.

i'm hoping rumours that they may release some third party games day one or maybe a month or two later are correct

 

[Dirk Diggler]

1 Year as per this link:
https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/legal/warranties/




Only other option is to pursue consumer rights, which says something along the lines of "Goods should last a reasonable amount of time"


https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/c...ne-wrong-with-a-purchase/return-faulty-goods/

Looks like I'll need to go down that route as PlayStation support have told me it's out of warranty and will cost £240 to repair.

I'll probably need to post in GD to see if anyone has ever challenged a 1 year warranty, and how they went about it.

 

[Diggsy]

£240??!!! That seems very expensive! Did they even suggest what the issue might be, especially to cost that amount to put right!

At that price I'd be wondering about a house insurance claim, although the soga (or whatever its called now) should be valid. I'd expect and expensive console to last at least 5 years.
