Am I likely to pick one up or is it going to be a case of hundreds of thousands going for a couple of hundred consoles? Managed to order a PS5 digital version. It's probably going to be a bit of a waste right now, there's no games that I'm desperate to play but I'm definitely looking forward to losing the noise from the fan on my PS4. It sounds like a jet engine taking off sometimes. Is it easy enough to transfer saved games over from ps4 to ps5? Anything that I should really try? I fancied Cyberpunk when it came out but it seemed like it would be a waste of time on PS4, does it play ok on next gen? I've also got an old original VR headset, might dust it down and see what it's like on the new console. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my one free from Sony last year, but I have no idea if they are still doing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a piece of piss transfering stuff from the 4 to the 5, it does it on ps5 setup and walks you through it step by step If you can have both consoles next to each other and linked via ethernet cable then it's flying 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're a PS+ subscriber you can save all your saved games into the cloud, and then redownload them all on to the ps5. that's what I did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth buying the Ultimate Edition if you can as you’ll get the 2018 Spider-Man fully remastered which also looks amazing in 4k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a few links already. Bit bizarre just there. I'm in the PS Store queue and the wait time got down to 5 minutes then went to 20 minutes and is now "more than an hour" [emoji38] I'm really not in any rush for one but if I get one I'll be happy enough. If I was desperate for one I think that would have sent me into a fit of rage mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Ps5 turned up on Saturday. Was a doddle to set it up. Went a bit mental with the black Friday sale, bought Deathloop, Madden and Cyberpunk. Really enjoying Cyberpunk, not sure what the consensus on it now is as opposed to when it was released but plays fine, looks amazing and really liking the story so far. Reminds me a bit of an old Philips cdi game from about 30 years ago called Burn Cycle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiderDee Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 EE had loads PS5's in stock today if you are a customer. £45 over 11 months is a decent deal. I had one in checkout but opted out as would rather have an xbox 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I joined 4 days ago and there has been 5 drops since then. Got a PS5 today from Studio after they sent the link at 7:50. As I said, I wasn't overly fussed not having one up until this point but happy enough one is on the way/it's one less that those scalping c***s can get their hands on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAE1929 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Not sure if it is use to anyone, but I've got a code to pre order a PS5 from Currys. Says it would be around 2-3 weeks. Happy to send the info on, but I'd imagine you'd have to be fairly quick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Leaks suggesting Sony are ready to merge PS+ and PS Now and have a 3 tier subscription where the top tier would have a back catalogue of PS1 and PS2 games. They're never going to compete directly with gamepass by offering 1st party releases on day 1 as part of a subscription but could be very interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorongil Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I’ve managed to get 2 so far. One for me and one for a work colleague. It really is brilliant. I got both via stock tips from a Stockchecking discord server 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
