We wont have a clue about stock levels till much closer to launch.

If I remember there were fears of "low" stock with the ps4 launch and Sony ran out of the initial allocated stock but were fairly quick on fulfilling orders and the scalpers lost out.

Not what I remember :confused: scalpers did not lose out. They ones I secured from Argos sold out almost immediately on Gumtree for both basic and the super pack with camera, extra controller and Killzone for £429.99 on 29/11/2013.

It looks like EA could be revealing their next Star Wars game this week. Could it be via the PS5 presentation, I wonder?

There'll have to be some third party content on show, you'd imagine... Resi 8 maybe?

Battlefront 3? Since they had recently announced no more new content for 2. Seems a bit soon to announce the next fallen order or resurrection of that 1313 title as FO has proven single player can sell.

Ah so you are one of those guys?

Don't know anyone who paid over the odds for a ps4, but ok.

Google agrees with you.

There is another SW title being made by Motive, Montreal (owned by EA). It's been known about for a while, but other than being a SW game code-named Maverick, not much else was known (although Jason Schreier recently described it as a "smaller, more unusual project", whatever that means). Anyway, Schreier replied to a Motive Tweet last week, and long-story short, it looks like Maverick will be revealed this week.

Edit: the latest info is that the SW news is happening on a different day to the big Sony reveal. So back to the drawing board in guessing what PS5 games will be revealed. :o

Xbox 360 RROD, PS4 Pro thermal solution, Switch Joy-con drifting, XBox Elite controller shoulder buttons.

It’s very common with video game systems and accessories.

I wouldn't know about the Xbox. I wasn't aware of the PS Pro problem - just googled and still aren't aware. You on about the noise? Ah ok, I have a first month Pro, still quiet (even though people tell me it can't possibly be and I'm lying). And the otheres quickly and easily fixed with a swap out.
What I'm saying is there are very rarely items that hit market that firstly have an issue and secondly aren't quickly and easily fixed. Considering the sheer number of original PS4 owners there are out there with 6.5

I think he means in regards to fan noises etc, I mean my pro is noisy and later revisions are better.

Same with launch PS4 had revisions and subtle changes with the touch buttons being removed

To some degree you can end up with a slightly improved product by waiting

Yes - now this I can get on board with.
Products will continue to be worked on during their life and there will be "improvements" made. We had what, PS4 A, B, C chassis followed by Slim. I think the Pro has had three revisions.
If those potential future improvements are worth being without said item for an amount of time I guess that is down to individual preference. We're unlikely to see a "B" version of the PS5 until "Holiday" 2021 and who knows what changes it will have.
More often than not future revisions are "cost downs" as opposed to much else. I am under no illusion there won't be a 1.6TB version of the base unit some 2 years or so after launch.

I'm still told constantly that my first month purchased Pro is noisy. It isn't, but if I say this I'm told I'm a liar etc.

Oh also remember the PS4 analogue stick rubber coming off? I had to replace some sticks due to this.

I remember it being a issue, but not one I encountered with my launch console. I've actually still got one of my launch controllers with original stick. It creaks a little with the triggers these days...

Yeah that was annoying. It wasn't so much the rubber flaking that annoyed me, it was that after a few minutes it lost all its grip and your thumb slid about all over the place. I think they fessed up in the end and admitted they'd make a mistake and accidentally used a rubber that reacted with the moisture on your hand and made it degrade.

looks ok if true

Good. Less is more sometimes. I don't know anyone who has a games console as a focal point in a room.

It looking mildly interesting doesn't mean it has to be a room's focal point. PlayStation designs are usually quite distinct though, this just looks like Another Black Box under the TV.
