Gaming PlayStation 5

Will do.

It does seem strange. Just checked my invoice and it's the same - showing 0 and also 0 balance next to the PS, unlike the other items which show 1 & their respective prices. I just double-checked my bank statement to be sure and the money for the console was definitely taken. Once I get a new notice of pending delivery, I will be happy. It's feeling a bit 'squeeky bum time' at the moment, though...

What's the deal with ShopTo support anyway?

Opened a ticket back on the 9th and still haven't heard anything. Opened a general enquiry on the 'messenger' chat function and still haven't heard anything back. Are they always this non-responsive?

Turns out people pre-ordering through Smyths and Game are getting e-mails abut preparation for shipment and sometimes even DPD consignments!
 
Just went into currys to ask about stock, they didn’t exactly seem too confident about it coming but said it comes Thursday.
 
My Spiderman disk finally turned up. Glad my console isnt coming via Royal Mail

I ordered Call of Duty from Curry’s last week. Were happy to take payment instantly which I’ve never had to do for a pre order and I’m still waiting on it coming.

Argos have been fantastic on that front. Took upfront payment but have received my orders bang on release date and have sent text updates as and when required.

Also helps that they're using DPD.
 
Going to try and see if I can get a PS5 in Argos in Ireland if they do release it here. Might wake up at 6am and see if there’s any luck. Since they don’t have a pre order thing.

Thought you bought one from scalper.

No idea, mate. This is the first time I have ever ordered anything from them.
 
After my email saying my headset won't be arriving any time soon, it was nice to get a follow up email asking me to review my recent headset purchase.... FFS
 
Not my photo, from reddit, but what a photo.

The PS4 design is lovely, I even like the re-designed Pro and Slim models too.
 
Do we know if the BT Sport app will be available on launch day? I've seen that Sky have confirmed that Sky Go will be (as per their Twitter) but BT Sport being available as well would be amazing.

Have the XSX/S got the apps on launch day? That might be a good hint as to whether it comes on the PS5.

Yes it will.

Sony's confirmed the initial wave of all PS5 apps that will be available on the next-gen console at launch. These include the following:

  • Amazon Prime Video
  • Apple TV
  • BT Sport
  • Crunchyroll
  • Disney +
  • Funimation
  • Hulu
  • MyCanal
  • Netflix
  • Now TV
  • Peacock
  • PlayStation Video
  • Plex
  • Pluto TV
  • Spotify
  • Twitch
  • WWE Network
  • YouTube
Sony has confirmed that more PS5 apps will be added in the future, such as Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, MyCanal, and Peacock. It's worth remembering that for many of these type of applications, PS4 is one of the most popular pieces of hardware used to access them. As such, it's in the interests of both Sony and the service providers to port their apps to PS5 as quickly as possible. In some cases, the user experience could be improved thanks to the PS5's SSD and additional horsepower, and of course we'll update as and when we learn more about that.
 
I notice people are doing transfer between PS4 to ps5, I assume this is just games and nothing to do with profile etc...

For me I am only going to be downloading new games so probably not necessary

Before I factory reset my PS4 pro is it 100% confirmed PT is not possible on ps5.?

Do you have your save games backed up?

Konami rang up Sony and got it blocked because they petty.

I do indeed. So I reckon I’m good to go

Gonna try selling it. What’s a good price to get for Pro with 2 controllers. It has a 2TB SATA that I installed

I've no idea pal. My PS4 was a launch one that sounded like a jet engine so I gave it to a mate for free the other day.
 
Just Miles. Got the platinum trophy for the first Spider-Man so don’t really need to revisit that game.
Me too. Although, I wonder if the new version will be classed as a separate trophy group. That was an easy Platinum to get. I would take another play-through for an easy platinum. It was a good game and it has been a while since I played it. *rubs chin*

Honestly found some of the challenges rage inducing :lol: so I’m not interested in doing it again. Hoping they bring abit of DLC out seeing as it’s pretty short. If not it doesn’t really matter as I’m hoping Cyberpunk finally drops in December.

They weren't easy but I wouldn't say they were overly difficult in general. I do remember there was one that was a struggle and I had to quit and come back to it the following day, as I just couldn't beat it..
 
I hope there’s decent availability for these I’m not bothered about getting it release day so I didn’t pre-order but I’d like to be able to go in a shop and buy one by mid December.
 
Increasing pattern of orders being cancelled in America for Amazon due to "damaged in transit", "couldn't find the address" or "other" on delivery day. The sentiment is that drivers are increasingly nicking PS5's en route.

Also, for those ordering from Game in the UK, Game are starting to flat out cancel pre-orders. I've seen five already on PS5 sub-reddits. I think they might be prioritising in-store pre-orders.
 
Ugh, I was adamant on not buying any of the new consoles anytime soon (I have a beefy gaming PC), but Demon Souls is really tempting me :(

Not sure I can justify buying a console for one game thats essentially a remake of a PS3 game.

When did they order? They probably cancelling the ones people glitched through.

Well you probably won't be able to get it any time soon, if that helps.
 
How are you meant to contact ShopTo? I called but everyone is at home, so I started a ticket but it's been seven days without response, and I've had similar luck using their fb messenger or on-site live chat. No actual response that isn't automated.

There's a guy answering twitter questions but he can't talk about account specific stuff, so..... What gives?
