Woke up to a Cold War code in my email...

The install is ridiculous. 3 campaign parts, multiplayer, dead ops arcade, and zombies. There goes 1/3 of the hard drive.

These flooding the market soon or expect shortages from now till the new year?

Charging station is so damb dope

 

[lamekilla]

That was me last night too w/ miles, but also w/ Astrobot
With the lights turned off and the headphones, felt like I was in a Disney attraction

Oh that Astro is on another level. I was playing with the controller demo screen alone for like 5 mins

Thoughts on the pulse headset? I’ve actually never used a real hesdset before because my sound bar set up has been good enough

but I feel like im missing out on the full immersion with dual sense controller + pulse combo

Which is exactly why I can’t commit until external memory becomes a thing

White is such an oddball color low key threw my feng shui off

My crude but beautifully simple setup. Please disregard my African CD’s but I have the PS5 standing up in all its immaculate glory. Highly suggest you boys look into an IKEA Kallax shelf. Their so much you can customize with it. All I did was take out one shelf and it was perfect. I’ve seen people turn them into a whole bed on Ikeahacks

Rememer when I told yall that target was doing first come first serve and people didnt believe me. OOF

You GOAT status in my book, dawg.

You gave me the heads up. Searched reddit for a confirmation. Only found one, but that was enough for me.

Thank you, sir.

Still playing Spider-man first.

I'm still in shock looking at this. Never in my life ordering online have a gotten a double up like this. Yes amazon sent me TWO consoles. The other one is going to my brother who struck out everywhere yesterday.

First post in the new thread, it’s only right.

Bestbuy Canada came through before the weekend, hope everyone else can secure theirs.

I love mine so far, playing around with the settings to see what sounds best.
I'm in the same boat as you in terms of not really having a real headset.
For entry level these aren't bad at all, well worth the price.
For me playing Astrobot with the headphones and controller is by far the greatest in home video game experience I've ever had.

It'll be interesting to see if games developers will go hard on AAA titles to integrate that type of immersion.

Like if we can feel what it's like to throw the Leviathon Axe and catch it, plus it sounds dope
or if every single one of Aloy's arrows feels different. There's hints of it in Miles but SM2 i fully expect the controller to be a part of the experience.

Console has a TON of potential in general.
1st big update will probably be to smooth out the bugs.
2nd update though, we get quick resume and transfer PS5 games on external, and they update the controller to respond better with specific older games, we gonna be cookin.

You're in BC right, knappps ? Alberta was basically bone dry unless you somehow secured an in-store pick-up in September.

Defitnely going to be the watch twitter, NT, reddit, RESETERA, retail store inventory stock websites for awhile. I'd say until next June or July before people can walk into a retail store and just buy one with ease. Sony is projecting to ship and sell 8 million of the bad boys from now through Spring 2021 alone. Also factor in COVID and all the dope releases Sony has lined up for next year.

We should start dropping our PSNs again.

Create a master list, maybe in the OP.

I'm down to run some Ghost Of Tsushima multi player. Haven't even gotten into yet since I sold my PS4 2 weeks ago.

 

[ggarvinxx3]

I asked this in the old thread but has anyone gotten an update from their Amazon order from yesterday’s drop? I ordered a few other things on the same order and those have been shipped out but not the 5... anyone has an update on their Amazon drop? Has your order shipped at least?
