    It goes from being a really limited edition console that only a small percentage of the population own, to suddenly, post-cull, 100% of the remaining population have one and it's no longer rare.

    Bit extreme, mind you.
    But worth it to wipe the smiles from their faces!

      It would be hilarious if some miscommunication at Sony meant that they accidentally produced 500 million of these Ltd Editions.

          Yea, absolutely. Does mean I don't have the pain of doing a transfer from my old Pro and also selling it. Also realistically my PS4 Pro will be sold anyway to get a PS5 (assuming back compat here).

          Altbough Amazon did the right thing after they ballsed up, they still should proactively contacted everyone they failed. Given Amazon have let me down on preorders before I also should have learnt. Yesterday l could easily got one from PC World, GAME or Very. And thats the annoying bit.

            When I first heard about this, I was thinking, 'What!? 500 million isn't limited!!!'

            Then I realised it was to celebrate 500 million sales

              This reminded me of the 10 million PlayStation too, which is nice. Much more on the net about them than there was 10 years ago. SCPH-7000W, silly expensive though! Which reminded me of Net Yaroze and now I want one of those again. Grr

                These days, every time I pine after a retro console I look behind my TV, see the two HDMI ports and sober up.

                  Pre-purchased Pizza Titan Ultra because why not.

                    Digital Foundry have done some tests on the new 500 million PS4.
                    Seems it runs hotter but sounds quieter, also has a seagate HD.

                      Not watching that.



                      Still a bit raw about the balls-up Amazon made. That will just wind me up.

                        I watched it.

                        Really glad I didn't stump up or one. The scratches and fingerprints present after seconds of it being unwrapped make it look nasty!

                        I've got a feeling the Spider-Man console is similarly gloss.

                          Still think it looks gorgeous, however I despise glossy plastics like that. I suspect none of these will survive without scratches.

                            Even the ones that spend a life being constantly reflipped on eBay as being sealed and teh rarez? I await the first VGA graded one with amusement to see how much the plastic tomb tax is.
