Daniel Perales 95 Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) Hi All! Like the subject says. Any of you were lucky enough to get your PS5 preorder in? I didn't. But Sony said more will be available soon. Just took a quick look at eBay. People would have to be very desperate or just plain morons to start bidding for those prices. https://www.ebay.com/itm/PlayStation-5-Digital-Edition-CONFIRMED-Pre-Order/114414986848?hash=item1aa3aa2660:g:MC8AAOSwkt9fZCrX Edited September 20, 2020 by Daniel Perales Checked eBay for signs of price gouging.

KyoKyo 41 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Honestly I plan on waiting until well into the New Year to try and pick one up. I've got a list of Ps4 anime titles that I've been wanting to play anyway. I went 10 months before getting a Ps4 all those years ago. However, the way Sony handled the whole pre-order launch was a total disaster. I'm not really sure what they were thinking (or not thinking). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They did gave a date, but some retailers decided to jump the gun. Also, imagine how many "bots" was just waiting for midnight to start their pre-ordering? At least some people managed to get their preorders in before the mad rush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ikano 17 Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) My brother and I agreed that it doesn't have any games we're interested in right now to warrant us getting one. And if we "hold out" sooner or later they'll release one with larger hard drive space and/or "pro" version. Personally, I've bought games before without owning the console. Considering how bad my video game backlog is...I'm easily preoccupied with other games... Edited May 14, 2021 by Ikano Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Perales 95 Posted May 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 Well, it's been 8 months since the pre-order date. Did anyone finally get their PS5? I want to get the disc version of the console, not interested in the "digital-only" version. Personally, I haven't been lucky to get one, much less able to place an order for it. I manage to at least get as far as having the system on my online "shopping cart" from some of the vendors (Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart), only to lose it once I click "Check-out" in less than 2 minutes into it. Very frustrating, indeed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, I have no one who will do that favor for me. Also, I can't use my desktop computer at work for such things (they tend to block certain sites from time to time). Can't even use my smart-phone in the office for web browsing, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Perales 95 Posted October 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 So, after 11 months of trying, I finally got myself a PS5! Bought it directly from Sony. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dragonnext 0 Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) My brother and I have discussed our thoughts, and for now, we're not finding any games compelling enough to justify getting the console. We're considering holding out a bit, anticipating that they might eventually introduce models with larger hard drive space or even a "pro" version. Speaking from experience, I've actually purchased games even when I didn't have the console yet. Given my extensive video game backlog, I often find myself engrossed in other gaming options. By the way, if you're interested in gaming discussions, you might want to check out this article on https://www.vpesports.com/betting/gg-bet. It's always fascinating to explore different perspectives on the gaming world. Edited August 29, 2023 by dragonnext Quote Link to post Share on other sites
