Playstation 5: Thread 03

After giving up hope of getting one because of the lottery system here and the sheer demand for the system, I got a phone call today from the store to tell me I was one of those chosen in their lottery and a PS5 was waiting for me to buy within 3 days. Got it home within an hour and have been playing Astro most of the afternoon. Ive just ordered Miles and Demons Souls. Im also tempted to order Immortals Fenyx Rising along with either WRC 9 or Dirt 5, which would be the better option?

I thought clambering for PS5 would have calm down a bit by now still seems as rampant as ever. Argos/John Lewis and Amazon seem to sell quicker than they get them in. Still selling out everywhere unbelievably looking like June and beyond may calm down I hope. Just sold my PSVR for £200 got money in the bank waiting when one PS5 becomes available at a sensible price/actual price for Digital model. Not sure why RE: Village Maiden Demo was made exclusive to PS5 I found that quite annoying.
I see about 5 out of 20-50 on my PSN have PS5 so there is that.

Thinking about the PS5 now that I've owned it for a little while, it occurs to me how much I like it. I've instantly bonded with it as a machine much quicker than I did the PS4. It's quiet, the pad is excellent, the interface is quick and looks terrific in HDR. The store being integrated into the home screen is lovely. It's really a pleasure to use.

A quite reliable source whos been playing this quite a bit told me not to get too excited about it and manage expectations. This is coming form someone who plays a lot of free to play rubbish like Pladins, so his tollerace for this type of ****e is a lot higher than most.

Originally posted by Colin View PostSupply and demand. I don't know any of my friends who have one, don't remember seeing much if any advertising regarding them, don't hear anything about any stand out games on them. Maybe my Covid 19 bubble is just more secure than I thought and nothing including new gen console news is getting in.
On the other side of the coin, all of my close mates have got one (one even paid some silly price on Gumtree). I reckon the hype is real personally - perhaps bigger than for the PS4, or at least about the same. I'm sure lockdown certainly hasn't hurt.
