Gaming PlayStation 5

By the time you have the PS5, headset, 2 games and subscription you’ll be looking at over £700
 
Got my preorder in store at game at 8am today for -
PS5 Physical
Charging dock
Remote
Spider-Man
Demon’s Souls

whilst I was in the queue I saw Smyth’s were taking preorders for additional controllers for £49.99, £10 cheaper so I got one of those there!

interestingly, despite being 8th in the queue, I got the last charging dock and remote, which tells me stock is going to be veeeeeery low

I did just grab a second controller on Amazon, but think I will have to do without headset at this point :(

I assume a PS4 PS+ sub will just carry over to PS5? I tend to buy 12 month vouchers when they go on deep sale so have many months still stored up. Would be very annoyed if PS5 has a different subscription.
 
No.

Might be compatible for PS4 games but heard that no PS5 game will work with Dualshock.


Yea PS4 controller will work on PS4 games but you cant use it to play PS5 games.

The PS4 headset works as far as I know, but you wont be able to use the app.

It is the same sub. Just PS5 users get a bonus.

Interesting - controllers £59.99 on Smyth's website.
 
Game posted on twitter that confirmation emails are delayed and can take up to 24 hours to arrive. So hopefully my order is still fine and they didn't take a load of preorders they can't fulfil.

That’s what am worried about so only took out a 3 month subscription not sure if it transfers over or even if your games transfer
 
I really didn’t think it would sell out this fast, so naive. Gonna be gutted if I can’t get it at release.

currys may still have some, their site collapsed instantly. and check argos asap tomorrow when it goes lives. Don't think Tesco have gone live yet either

Yeh that’s my final opportunity I imagine
 
Oh sure I don't have to but I want two controllers for when my friends come ov... yeah fair enough.

Tell Sony you know Elvis and they’d give you one free. Elvis has friends at Sony, who should sort you out. They were correct about the price being announced this year.
 
Bought it. Quite surprised by the price, 2299 PLN here which is at least 300 PLN lower than I'd have expected. Guaranteed delivery on the 19th.
 
I’ve just pre-ordered the headset and controller on amazon before I’ve even got the console. Can you imagine how depressing that will be if I can’t get the console
 
The Pulse headset just live on amazon. Think these are going to be in very short supply.

Im still not sure I can afford it, but amazon don't charge until it ships so I stuck in a preorder. I looked at the game bundles last night and you didn't save a penny by buying a bundle.


Still haven't noticed the charging stand on Amazon, I got one with my PS4 and its still going strong.
