Poll: *The Official PlayStation (PS5/PS5 Pro) Thread*

My baby has finally arrived! Nicely boxed too no damage...that I can see though the DPD driver rather casually plonked it on the floor right in front of me - brute! Now for the long wait until I can play with her this evening

Royal Mail said it would be delivered today between 8:58 and 12:58

It's 12:59 and it's not here!!!

Yikes, someone has got an early crimbo pressie! Mine is setup on my desk and transferring atm.

Good luck!

Looking forward to testing this out after work

No clue if im allowed to mention but a popular online video GAME retailer has the 30th edition ps5 up for pre order. Confirmed working as of 4:30am I'd imagine will sell out fast.

Crazy nobody picked up on this, guess everyone was too busy refreshing their tracking numbers. More for me!

Yeah, that seems to be standard with Amazon. Weird how the largest online UK retailer with depots everywhere (just a few miles down the road in my case) can’t do launch day delivery but other retailers can?

Maybe they’ve been slapped on the wrist by suppliers for sending out orders early in the past so are intentionally delaying them now?

I mean - it's not standard with Amazon. My PS5 turned up on release day at 10:30am.
But for them to be the only UK Retailer who are not sending out the Pro for release day is an odd one.

Mine is quiet. Just noticed that Dragons Dogma 2 has just gone on sale in the store at £31 so I am grabbing that. Enhanced too.

Downloaded Dragon Age, ReFantazio and TLOU 1 plus all my apps and saves that I want.

Thanks for the heads-up but I think I'll wait. I've re-entered grumpy-mode thinking that the yanks get this for 80 bucks yet somehow it's 100 knackers here.

That sums up most things here, only hobby I've ever had that's been cheaper in UK is Warhammer

Has it arrived yet?

Mines Royal Mail too and no sign of it. It’s irritating that you can’t track in real time like most other deliveries.

Mine was DPD from Indian Takeaway place, wow Stellar Blade looks amazing on it.. fidelity mode at 80fps.. looks sharper too. Glad I managed to upgrade!

I bought a 1/2m long USB extension cable so i can plug the adapter for my Pulse headset to save using an adapter with the dongle at the front of the unit!

I cant think of any console hardware which is cheaper in the UK compared to the US.

Its to be expected now unfortunately.

Really impressed with how well the data transfer function works between PS5's, other than only being able to transfer between the internal M.2 slot it's so smooth and relatively quick via cable, almost done moving 1.5TB of data.

Nope, that deal finished yesterday for 30% off if your account had expired.

 

[ZXSpectrum]

Hopefully the Black Friday deals will start soon.

Aye, this is what I'm waiting on. Sub expired in April and never got the 30% offer, even though I had been a constant subscriber for well over a decade!
