Its all a blur for me too!
Saw it bought it and then took a few seconds to sink in that I JUST GOT A PS5 FOR XMAS!!!!
YAY!!!
Lmao i think you completed life
On medium difficulty…
Were you running some alert services on that page? How did you know about it? Amazing effort.
I've had one since release.
It's ok and everything but it's not really life changing lol.

Weird flex but okay
@Davo723: Wasn't a flex. Just pointing out every one is flipping out over them like they're the second coming of christ. My students are begging me to bring it in and I'm like why? To play demon souls and spider man
@Ruddaga: This. It's been pretty meh so far. It'll take a few years for the truly amazing games to be made for next gen.
@deadpoet: I've been on team xbox/pc since the 360 (owned a PS1 and 2 prior). At this point the backlog of PS games is a huge draw. Out of the 15 free playstation collection games you get I'm dead keen on about 6 of them, that alone is a pretty good value for me.
@Davo723: Meh I would not rush out to buy one at the moment
I don’t see much difference from my PS4 Pro
I guess the PS5 content will only get better
it's all personal perspective. It IS life changing for me :) I've never enjoyed gaming more in my life. I mean, even the new "worms" was a great joy to play. The R2 trigger feels like I'm really pulling the trigger on that shotgun!!
Easy return if not - the photos have a disk drive slot on them
Amazon is unlikely to sell above RRP too, so it's gonna be the disc one
Potentially useful information for human PS5 owners:
How to fix the PS5 download queue bug without a factory reset.
Already fixed by Sony
Version 20.02-02.25.00
An issue where users couldn't download games because only the "Queued for Download" or "View Details" option was displayed was resolved. If you encounter this issue, update the system software to the latest version, and then try starting your PS5 in safe mode to rebuild the database.
"Already fixed", but even that patch note still explicitly states that you may need to "then try starting your PS5 in safe mode to rebuild the database.", which the linked to article gives highly detailed instructions to.
Also Version 20.02-02.25.00 was released on 17/11, while the article I linked to was published on 20/11. And there are even PlayStation focus gaming media outlets still writting articles as if people still may need to do a restart to safe mode and rebuild the database as recently as 30/11.
human PS5 owners? WTF that suppose to mean kiddo?!?
Potentially useful information for kiddy switch owners:
How to stop being a kiddy nintendroids or nintendrones
Was obviously making a joke about bots (not human) being used by scalpers (probably shouldn't be treated as humans either) to buy much of the available PS5 stock, and that it's currently difficult for actual humans to get their hands on PS5.
… But thank you for letting us know that Nintendo lives rent-free in your head, I suppose?
@pj1351: Oh my! Here I thought it was the equivalent to nintendroids or nintendrones hence why I typed that!!!!
Sorry my bad.
That actually make sense and hilarious!
Funny thing I actually got Switch! (and PS4, best of both world) so all good
@halil23: It's ok, I've been called much, much worse around these parts for much less, lol.
For my part, my rent-free remark was also uncalled for, and I would like to apologise for that too. You actually replied just before I could go back and strike it out.
Likewise, I have a Switch and a PS4 Pro (hooked up to a PSVR and a Sony laser projector). 👍
This disk version?
Yeah disk version.
Dammit why did I even ask. Missed out :( rookie mistake
I know I hate it too when people continually call a disc a disk.
a DISK is a hard drive
a DISC is a movie or software
It's a pet peeve of mine and I always like to embarrass people , it's not my best trait
sauce?
Thanks mate. Got one finally. Delivery December 14.
Wowzers. Got one. Thanks a bunch. :)
Still available
After reading all the issues people are having I’m waiting for a new batch
Just order. You can always change your mind afterwards.
🤯
What issues? i got a ps5 disk version on launch day and its been flawless.
Same. Been a great console so far.

Random power offs and crashes here
A lot of people are experiencing crashes. There's a 24 page thread on whirlpool
Software not hardware related. Games were crashing for me first week. No issue within the last week or so.
@ozbjunkie: People have been getting a lot of HW failures too, mostly the GPU failing causing artifacts. People have been reporting loud fans and loud disc drives not only that but some games bricking their console.
@Mooncakes: Whoa. Well, I'm gonna put my head back in the sand and hope it doesn't happen to me.
@Mooncakes: I just wanna say:

I wish everyone would stop going on about XBox, it's been mentioned at least 169 times in the PlayStation thread alone. :)
same. it's given a new life to my ps4 games too. buttery smooth
My launch PS5 Dualsense controller has a button that doesn't work and Sony isn't helping. Luckily I bought a spare though the controllers are expensive!
You should be taking it to the retailer not Sony. Get a replacement if they have them in stock.
@nailsforlunch: They would only do the entire console and controller. Since there's no PS5 stock this meant refunding the PS5. The retailer suggested Sony, and Sony suggested the retailer.
Ordinarily there's manufacturer warranty on this stuff as well though, even if you have to pay a fee for shipping.
No dramas here either on my launch day pickup disc model.
Wake up people!!!! lol
Seems OOS, cant check out
Thanks be to you kind sir!!!!!!!
Just saved 749$
just lost 1000$
👏
was it going to sell for $1750?
Yes
Only if you’re a scalper
gamer mathematics
👏
Ty OP,
just pressed buy as fast as possible
The deal is being in stock!!!
Hard to buy etc.
The deal is pretty obviously that there is very limited availability worldwide so it's hard to find in stock, which OP did. That's the deal.
Otherwise you're paying hundreds more from a scalper.
Just like the RTX 3000 & AMD 6000series…. No stock.
Wouldn’t expect a horse to understand.
No opposable thumbs and all that.
The logic checks out!
Perhaps there are some other deals you can go contributing zero value to.
I pressed buy now but I guess it doesn't reserve it?
thanks op I got it yassssssss!
Can't add to cart?
same
Strange as it still says in stock.
yep… missed out.
AAaannnnd IT'S GONE
Some thing odd going on as it's showing in stock on the product page.
The ps5 or the itchy butt?
lol
Not even 4min..yikes
OOS now… less than 5 mins
Gone before the title could even be corrected lol
Was fun imagery seeing people frantically trying to check out on their devices, cursing as Amazon has selected a different address or has logged them out, putting their payment details through with shaky hands and more curses as they realise it went out of stock while in the checkout phase.
Phew, will power held out
Thanks for the post but will take away the excitement of the XSX on Christmas day
I cannot add to cart either. :(
The stock indicator on the product page must be really slow to react. Still saying in stock. You would have thought that it would be in real time stock status.
Got one for a friend, thanks OP
Can I be your friend?
Be patient and vigilant, more will drop between now and Christmas I am sure!
Lasted 8 minutes
That's what she said, thoroughly impressed
A personal best!!
lol, so glad I missed this, Just saved myself $749
Let’s make 10 ps5 and sell it to 1million people. Oh. It’s sold out. Far out. So popular. Must be awesome product
It's popping in and out of stock
I just bought one
Got one. Cart was screwed but kept spamming buy it now and one went through
You probably bought all the remaining lol
wouldn't it show 0 in qty?
You bloody legend - thank you!
I feel so bad for people who have tried multiple times - eventually you get so desperate you checkout based on the $750 price looking right for disc version and pay baby!
Did not even think. Or check if this was a digital or disc edition…. I bought it immediately out of fear from bots… Fml
