PlayStation 4 Console Thread

[hat]

On the basis that they might give away some other cool stuff away I've switched my midnight PS4 collection at the local Game for a 'VIP' collection at the PS4 launch party in Covent Garden.

I know this is a high risk strategy seeing as Game are involved; if they guff my pre-order up now I only have myself to blame.

Pics to follow later.

Currently in Asda...there are going to be a LOT of disgruntled people turning up closer to midnight expecting a console.

[jonamok]

About 4am, if it's being couriered and you're in the south east. I really wouldn't worry.

And it was going so well... I live in the rural Northwest. Ho hum.

On the plus side, I don't live in the south east!

[Chadruharazzeb]

Email got.

It's in the Stoke depot. I'm almost tempted to go and see if they'll just let me have it now.

[Herbalizer]

I have no idea what launch games to get, I've not been paying a lot of attention.

Battlefield 4 is a certainty, had good times playing Battlefield with Le chuck on 360. NBA and FIFA14 are also in consideration

Whats the online mode on NFS like?

[Flub]

Whats the online mode on NFS like?

According to Giant Bomb not great. Supposedly a big open world with 6 players max.

[MansizeRooster]

DPD is now showing my shipping info :-)

Everything is falling into place...

What's the chances of me rolling up to a huge tesco or asda at about 12.15 tonight and getting a ps4 do you think?

[Dandy_Sephy]

About the same as rocking up to any other store, depends on the store in question. Asda and Tesco have both published a list of stores with stock and if they are open at midnight.

Slim, unless you take a baseball bat.

[Cthulhu Steev]

My PS4 is on its way to Billingham! The poor thing!

Is there a lot of other people queuing? How many do they have available?

[Hardbattle]

My console is on the way, but my Lego Superheroes is still on "processing".... It's too late to get it for tomorrow now, isn't it? Ordered the game weeks ago too....

You lived in BillingNAM?

[MikeF]

So we're now onto the next stage of panic. Dpd are still just expecting my parcel shortly.

And mine, its Bleeders fault

[ridgeracer]

I'm gonna go later an nab one. Not sure why as game wise, it's slim pickings but I like the idea of the console next to me tv...

[Zombait]

My PS4 still says "Dispatching Now" on Amazon and I can see they've taken the money from my account so I'm not worried. My brother also has an order with Amazon placed on 29th May and his status just says "Pre-Ordered" with a delivery estimate for Friday, they've taken the money from his account so does anyone know why, if, or when his order will move from pre-ordered? To say he's getting a bit stressed is an understatement

[Rain Birds]

Is there a lot of other people queuing? How many do they have available?

14 people including me, 29 consoles. 18 standard, 11 with Knack.

[SeanR]

Get knack.

[Sng]

Just clearing out all my old last-gen 720p shitty games to make room for the PS4!

[Professor_k]

I decided to go "Team Bone" a while ago but good luck to everyone going in to the wild to get a PS Frizzle this evening!

I absolutely love launch threads on this forum and will be popping in throughout the duration of the evening/tomorrow to keep up with everyone's impressions and pictures. My indecision over which console to go for has cost me both launch day experiences which I'm properly gutted about but I'll be with y'all in spirit, Enjoy!

[Cthulhu Steev]

You lived in BillingNAM?

No, thankfully I'm on the other side of the hills in east cleveland I see it every time I go to work though.

[Down by Law]

Amazon where the FUCK is my tracking number. Still been ' dispatching soon' since 8am. How long does it take? I've already had one delivery let me down tomorrow!

[max renn]

No, thankfully I'm on the other side of the hills in east cleveland I see it every time I go to work though.

I just moved there it's a bit weird. Where you Guisborough way?

[Jolly]

Just removed the kids grubby fingerprints from the T.V.

She is ready.

[Aardvark]

I wouldn't worry, they will have spent today frantically throwing orders into boxes and some courier will turn up later this evening and then tracking numbers will start to appear. This sort of thing always looks a little chaotic with big online retailers because the volumes are so large.

Think of it like sausages, lovely results but you don't want to see how they're made.

[David Kenny]

Ha ha, I've literally just finished doing that!

Also I have my email from DPD. They're expecting my package shortly, the lucky blighters.

[MikeF]

When was it scanned and where was it?

Mine is the same, wondering if there is a pattern

[NecroMorrius]

Hmm, do I go early and queue up, or have a lie in and stroll in later on?
