    What's with the forced HFW?

    • froogletom on 12/07/2022 - 10:42
      +14

      and their forcing you to pay $95 for the controller when you can buy them for $63 today

        These shitty tactics + $120AUD games makes me not want to get a PS5 at all and just hold out for the eventual PC release.

        • lesher on 12/07/2022 - 12:59

          Personally I don't see whats even the hype for ps5 at all when most of their games will be on pc anyway and the exclusives are very meh not to mention getting ps5 feels like a nightmare anyway

          • andigaming on 12/07/2022 - 14:18

            @lesher: I got one at launch (well 2 weeks late cause covid delayed Amazon deliveries or whatever) but aside from GT7 and next-gen FIFA mine has been collecting dust for the most part so you aren't wrong there.

      • Shaddolf on 12/07/2022 - 10:48

        $32, or less than 4%, isn't a bad markup for something you generally cannot buy at all for RRP

          People seem to be complaining paying little more to retailer, but are ok to feed big bucks to scalpers

      • Maths Debater on 12/07/2022 - 12:53

        Yep, neither option is good IMO.
        But if you had to pick one, it would be the controller.

    • cariDisc on 12/07/2022 - 10:46
      +6

      and to make it worse, it is digital download, so no resell value there

      • FireRunner on 12/07/2022 - 10:51
        +1

        Controller is the better value

        • pinkybrain on 12/07/2022 - 21:59
          +1

          neither is good value
          since the controller price here is more expensive than getting one on sale as mentioned by others here.

          but between the two,
          yes controller is the better one to get.. since the game will eventually drop in price and can get it second etc.

          though rather just not get either and pay the console without the forced purchase of either item.

      • pinkybrain on 12/07/2022 - 22:00

        alot of these game giveaways are just digital downloads nowadays to prevent resale..
        smart for them but bad for us.

    • Hybroid on 12/07/2022 - 11:07

      It's to try and deter scalpers while also increasing profits. Better overpay a little for a game or controller than pay lots extra to scalpers.

      • maxbon on 12/07/2022 - 11:40
        -2

        Nope. That’s profit maximising tactics. EB knows full and well that the chip shortage is over and a lot of PS5s will hit store shelves within weeks. This is a last-ditch attempt to extract some extra coin from uninformed buyers.

          EB knows full and well that the chip shortage is over and a lot of PS5s will hit store shelves within weeks.

          What is this based on? Global PS5 stock is still heavily constrained and Australia is not prioritised.

    Whats worse is when EB Games sells with no home delivery option - you go in there to 'pick up' your console and oh my god they attack you from all angles to try to get you to buy, I had no less than 3 different salespeople try to make me buy stuff I had no interest in, and they also make you wait at the beginning for 10 minutes looking at the software as they 'prepare' your console, and even ask if you saw games you wanted to buy as if staring at the wall for 10 minutes wasnt enough.

    I actually felt assaulted coming out of that place, should've called the police!

      Would you like a tote bag for $10, or a pokemon t-shirt for $15? No? How about some of these pins for $5 and if you buy that you qualify for this mug for an additional $8 (normally $16)

      My pick up experience was fine for a previous bundle. Even offered to swap bundle.

      The issue I had was being notified when it arrived. They give you a call - no email, SMS, etc. I had missed that call so waited about a week extra.

    • sin069 on 12/07/2022 - 13:14

      Anecdotal but the EB Games I picked up my PS5 from actually recommended I gtfo and go home immidiately as carrying the PS5 box is a big target for thieves. No attempts to sell me anything, just told me to rush home and don't show it off in public lol.

  • yojshankey on 12/07/2022 - 10:59

  • NeggerOfDeals on 12/07/2022 - 11:03

    Finally got one after 2 years. I gave up my original Amazon pre-order due to no good games. There's still no good games but I'm in the need for a 4K player so win-win.

    • Agret on 12/07/2022 - 11:07
      -2

      Not the best choice for a 4K player, no support for Dolby Vision or HDR10+ so you are best off getting a standalone player still.

      • NeggerOfDeals on 12/07/2022 - 11:08

        Not enough DV content yet. I'm content to sticking with standard HDR.

        • Agret on 12/07/2022 - 11:10

          If you have Disney+ there's quite a lot of content on there with DV although yeah the other services are a bit behind on it.

          Chromecast with Google TV is a cheap way to get it.

          • NeggerOfDeals on 12/07/2022 - 11:12

            @Agret: What does that have to do with physical 4K media? My receiver doesn't have DV support so the argument is moot.

            I can watch digital DV content fine on my Shield > TV.

        • pinkybrain on 12/07/2022 - 22:02

          surprising that people still get 4k discs

          most are just streaming 4k nowadays.

          • NeggerOfDeals on 13/07/2022 - 09:02

            @pinkybrain: I download 99% of my 4K remuxes but I still have quite a few discs I fished out of storage recently. Was only going to get a 4K player if I could get a PS5 (since I could trade my PS4 Pro in).

            • pinkybrain on 13/07/2022 - 10:43

              @NeggerOfDeals: how many 4k bluray discs you got?

              is your ps4 pro hackable/hacked?

              should never trade it if it is hackable

        • Damannation on 12/07/2022 - 11:26

          Nope, went in last week and they advertised $844 for the same bundle in store and had a couple in stock and more was coming.

    • Shaddolf on 12/07/2022 - 11:11

      Calling BS on this one. This isn't even a deal, price wise, so nothing for JB to even match.

      And very unlikely JB just had stock sitting on the shelf.

      • Pricebeat on 12/07/2022 - 11:16

        Did I mention anything about price-match? I don’t have to prove anything to you.

        JB is doing $844 in store for the same bundle and has been for atleast a week or so. Got a console last week and they said they are getting stock pretty regularly now but will only be doing bundles. That's on the Gold Coast so can't speak for other areas.

        • Maths Debater on 12/07/2022 - 12:20

          This is correct.
          I suggest calling your local JB stores and testing your luck!

      • Smashya on 14/07/2022 - 08:20

        He didn't say it was a deal or a price match.

        And what he is saying if legit. I called up my local JB and they had the same bundle going on with stock in store (but I wasn't willing to pay an additional $94 for a digital download). They aren't advertising it, you just have to call/go in to a JB and if they have it store, then it's you're lucky day. Some JB's get more stock than others so it's better to call and check.

    • PainToad on 12/07/2022 - 11:14
      +2

      Clearly he meant that because EB has/getting stock, maybe other retailers got stock too, so he phoned JB and they happened to have stock.

      JB are known for getting stock and not publishing the fact, so you need to ask.

      He didn't say anything about price matching.

    • Pricebeat on 12/07/2022 - 11:15
      +1

      I called my local JB hifi to see if they had stock without the forced stuff. They said yes, if you can pick it up right away. So in I went and got one for $749

      • PainToad on 12/07/2022 - 11:23

        Don't worry Pricebeat, it was obvious what you meant.

        • Pricebeat on 12/07/2022 - 11:33

          Thanks mate!

    • Maths Debater on 12/07/2022 - 12:17

      I did this as well and can confirm it's 100% legit.
      JB have moved from a waitlist to walk-in system.
      Your best bet is to call around and depending on stock levels, they MIGHT leave one aside for a very brief period. Some stores may not do this however.

    I called a few JB HiFis on the Gold Coast last week and they are basically doing the PS5 Console Bundle with Forbidden West for $844 and will only be doing the bundles going forward (they couldn't say when they were going back to console only but managed to get one that someone cancelled). They all said they are up to a 2 week wait but pretty consistent stock and a couple had a few in store when I called. Obviously probably not nationwide but unless you want the EB points probably worth looking at JB especially if you have TCN gift cards.

  • stonkered on 12/07/2022 - 11:25

    I got one with extra controller, I also got a controller from Amazon today, so I'm looking at it like $80 a controller.

    I don't really care to be honest, I just wanted to get the console and be done with it.

    Everything in my current setup is black and rectangle (tv, amp, ps4, wii u, xbox) and then the ps5 would be this gigantic weirdly shaped white thing.

    Im hoping they make a revised console, its just too big and ugly for me (and not many games, even after all this time)

    • lordezekiel on 12/07/2022 - 12:24

      I'm in the same boat, i may just wait for a PS5 slim release at this point, but if you are willing to spend about $100 extra you can get very nice black Darkplate 2.0 conversion kits from dbrand that also shrink the size of the massive outer blades a bit so it looks a little more tidy https://dbrand.com/shop/special-edition/ps5?category=disc

  • Justin9mm on 12/07/2022 - 11:56

    Shi!!y EB tactics as usual.. I already have mine since launch day but I want everyone to get a good deal and be able to get one because the quicker we increase the adoption rate around the world, the quicker we get rid of cross gen support for future AAA titles.

    Not enough PS5 only exclusives, we won't see the full potential of the PS5 for another few years and then the PS5 Pro will already be out!

  • neonlight on 12/07/2022 - 11:58

    Gonna wait for better price. It's out of stock anyway with controllers.

    What's the rush? Nothing. Chip shortage will end soon enough faster than the Ukraine and Russia war
