Argos have apparently had all their stock of PS5 claimed by scalpers before they even went on sale. They apparently obtained the checkout URLs for the device and modified the number to match how many consoles they wanted to buy and then selected click and collect. The consoles were then collected in store.

Just had a message saying they are removing hitman 3 from my ps5 because due to an error in offering it as a free upgrade from people who bought it on PS4 most people ended up just getting it free on PS5. Luckily id finished all the missions already and I'm in no rush to pay 50 quid to play it again.

So you paid £50 and they took it off you? I'd be going all Agent 47 on that shit.

Amazon just had them for about 5 minutes; couldn't even add the thing to my basket without getting an error.

 

Load of shite.

There is likely to be stock at Argos either today/tomorrow and it's stupidly likely to be going online between 1am and 5am. They're not helping the situation at all.

I wouldnt feel the need to rush Stouffer at the minute it's literally just a faster ps4. I'm playing ps4 games.

It's what the boys wanted for Chrimbo; its now mid Feb and I still haven't been able to give them their present.

 

Fuck Sony, fuck scalpers, fuck eBay, fuck Amazon, fuck Argos, fucking fuck fuck fuck.

There's border problems too with getting stock on just about anything. I need a new dryer but it's taking forever for stock to come in. I waited 3 months for a treadmill. Supply lines are a nightmare.

Is this Covid, Brexit or both/neither?

Big System Software update for PS5 tomorrow - PlayStation Blog.

 

The first major system software update for the PS5 console is rolling out globally tomorrow, and it’s packed with new features and improvements. Our team is passionate about enhancing your experience on PlayStation in every possible way, so here’s a glimpse at what’s coming for PS5, PS4, and PlayStation App:

PS5 Storage Expansion and Management

  • Store PS5 Games on Compatible External USB Drives.* With this feature, you can now transfer your PS5 games to USB extended storage from your console’s internal storage. It’s a great way to extend the storage capabilities of your PS5 console, and you can seamlessly copy your PS5 games back to the console’s internal storage when you’re ready to play. It is faster to reinstall PS5 games from USB extended storage than to re-download or copy them from a disc.

  • Because PS5 games are designed to take advantage of the console’s ultra high-speed SSD, PS5 titles can’t be played from USB extended storage. PS5 titles also cannot be directly downloaded to USB extended storage. However, games that you transfer or copy back to internal storage will automatically update when applicable. In addition, you can select which game modes you want to install (such as campaign or multiplayer) for select titles that support the option.

As previously announced, the PS5 console will support storage expansion via M.2 drives in the future. We’re currently working on this feature and will keep you posted with any updates on PlayStation Blog.

New Social Features for PS4 and PS5 Consoles

  • Cross-generation Share Play. PS4 and PS5 players can now Share Play together while chatting in parties. This means PS5 console users can let their friends on PS4 consoles view their game screen, or even try out the PS5 games through Share Play, and vice versa. Options include the ability to share your screen with a friend, pass your controller virtually to a friend, or pass a second controller virtually to play co-op games together.

  • Request to Join Game Session. A selection of your friends’ joinable game sessions will now appear on both PS5 and PS4 consoles, allowing for more gameplay opportunities together. The “Request to Join” option also serves as a shortcut to sending a game invite, reducing the time it takes for you to get into games with friends. Through the Privacy Settings menu, you can modify who can interact with you through parties, games and messages.

Enhanced Control and Personalization Options for PS5 Consoles

  • Improved Game Base. The Game Base menu has been improved for quicker access to important content and features. You can now easily switch between Parties and Friends to start chatting with your existing parties or see what each of your online friends is up to. In addition, you can turn notifications on or off for each of the parties you’re in.

  • Disable Game Chat or Adjust Players’ Volume. You can now quickly disable in-game chat, which turns off your mic audio and the voice audio of other players. Additionally, you can easily adjust the individual voice chat volume of other players in the same chat so you don’t have to ask your friends to lower or increase their mic volume each time.
  • Game Update Pre-download. Once it’s enabled by developers, title updates for games will pre-download to your console if the “automatic updates” setting is enabled and your console is on or in rest mode. This will let you start playing the latest version of a game immediately after the update’s release.
  • Customize Game Library. With the ability to search your library or hide games from view, it’s now easier to find content and personalize your view of your game library.
  • Screen Zoom. You can now adjust the magnification of the screen to suit your preference from the Settings menu.
  • New Trophy Settings and Stats Screen. The level of trophies that results in automatic capture of a screenshot or video clip can now be customized — so you can now choose to only capture and save images/videos of moments when you earn higher-grade trophies, like Gold or Platinum. We’re also introducing a new player Trophy Stats screen, where you can check out the summary of your trophy level and status at a glance.

New Features for PlayStation App

We’re also introducing a myriad of new features for PlayStation App to make it easier than ever to connect with your console experience remotely. Recently, we introduced the ability to save products in a wishlist, get notifications when your friends are online, and change your console online status. In the coming weeks, we’ll be rolling out even more, including the ability to join a multiplayer session on PS5 from the app, manage your PS5 console storage, compare trophy collections with friends, and sort and filter products shown in the PlayStation Store. You can download PlayStation App for free from Google Play and the App Store.

Returnal and then Ratchet and Clank is next one. 

Cheers, so not much. 

I never normally buy a console when they first come but originally Cyberpunk looked liked changing that. 

I think I will wait a year or two, still got some PS4 games I haven't played yet.
