"You Might Have Some Trouble Getting A PS4 This Year"

I have no problem with waiting for next shipment.

PS4 is the console I want. So no problem.

Abash3966d ago

I was very fortunate to get a Launch Edition PS4 reserved on Amazon

Snookies123966d ago

Same here, went to Amazon right after that conference lol.

teedogg803966d ago

Got mine reserved at Gamestop. Along with Killzone SF, Driveclub and Watchdogs.

Philoctetes3966d ago

Same here. Glad I preordered early.

jdktech20103966d ago

Me too....lucky I did too because the next morning they were sold out.

Can't wait for xx-xx-2013 to get my PS4.

King_Slayer3966d ago

Pre ordered at Best Buy Tuesday morning paid in full. I'm good to go and I can't effing wait.

morganfell3966d ago

I ordered two and split my orders to insure my chances. One from Amazon and one from Best Buy, both with cameras and I recieved launch confirmation emails on both. I almost wore out the F5 key on my keyboard making sure I was in the first wave.

majedx93966d ago

and me too, got confirmation from Amazon it is Launch Edition PS4. ; )

steven83r3966d ago

It all comes down to how many Sony can manufacture. But if all else fails just walk into Walmart at midnight and pick one up. Same for Target, Sams club, Costco, Frys, Staples possibly, Kmart, Sears, Sony store and so on.

Panthers3966d ago

Gamestop promised me a launch console so I better get one. Luckily the Gamestop here isnt too busy so I was able to pre-order a few days after E3

mistertwoturbo3966d ago

Dang it I didn't pre-order fast enough

TheRacingX3966d ago

Pre ordered at Gamestop, I'm in the cue for a launch date PS4 + Killzone SF and since I'm a PS+ member I'll be getting Driveclub as well....jenga

trancefreak3966d ago

Yup me too! PS4 2013 Launch edition :)

We're all on the PS4 train WooT WooT!

0ut1awed3966d ago

Still looking for a launch day ps4 pre-order? You are in luck!

ssj273966d ago

I got mine to.. but did not got any extra control or game.. if anything and i got a hard time finding a game i guess I will download it from the PSN KZSF is a game I will keep with me forever and not trade anyways so is not a big deal to have it digitally ..

and I don't see the need on having a extra DS4 sine PES14 is not coming and I will get one one PES15 comes out.. I don't think any of this games have split screen anyways..

Syntax-Error3966d ago

Paid off and excited as a shit. BF4 as close to PC as possible. IM STOKED

Boody-Bandit3966d ago (Edited 3966d ago )

A heads up for those that pre-ordered thru Amazon. Amazon just sent me an email last night a few hours after enquiring about my PS4 pre-order June 10thafter all the launch / standard confusion.

"Dear Amazon.com Customer,

Thank you for pre-ordering the PlayStation 4. Yesterday we made a change to the name of the product by adding "Launch" and "Standard" editions, which may have caused confusion for some of our customers.

We are writing to confirm that you ordered the "Launch Edition," which is Release-Day Delivery eligible. All other aspects of the two editions are identical.

You do not need to take any action or make any changes to your current order."

So don't panic if you ordered your PS4 and are wondering if you will get the first batch. If you didn't receive the email I did? Just contact Amazon and see what response you get.

I don't want to end up having to camp out over night like I did the last few launches. So I played it safe and pre-ordered 2 from Best Buy direct as well.

mikeslemonade3966d ago

Grrrr I got the standard edition from Amazon and it says I don't get it until January 2014.

But anyway being sold out gives the system better appeal like the PS2.

Armyntt3966d ago

Reserved 6, 4 different bundles. 1 for me :)

Narutone663966d ago

I'm so jealous of you who live in America and UK, PS4 will launch first in your region. While we, who live in Asia and other regions have to wait. Good thing Sony is still supporting the PS3 and releasing great games to tide us over until PS4 releases in our regions.

RandomGamer3966d ago

Same here,when I pre ordered it I only had one option, then I got an email saying they changed to standard and launch, and I had Launch , So happy after getting that email.

koston36473965d ago

Me too!

GameStop PS4, Killzone, Watch Dogs, AC4, and BF4!

BattleAxe3965d ago

Just reserved my PS4 today at EB Games, and its good that I did it today, because today was their cut -off for receiving my PS4 on the day of release.

indysurfn3965d ago (Edited 3965d ago )

dang it Microsofty if your xbox one didn't hunt old nuns to take their donations back to its lair. I think more sellouts, I mean dummies would buy it, and I would be able to not only switch over to Sony, but I would be able to get it on day one. But no every person that will stand up for their rights over loyalty to a brand is jumping ship with me. which means there is no way sony can keep up. I have left your fold, and your still accidently screwing me by being so greedy and graby bad. jerks!

darkness6253965d ago

What does the launch edition offer.

blackpanther253965d ago

Preordered mine today at GameStop since I live in "the middle of nowhere" city Pa.

Chris_GTR13965d ago

im buying a ps4 and all but i never really understood the rush to buy next gen consoles. theres no games for em other than lame launch titles not to mention launch consoles always end up messing up.

then theres the whole forking over money for ps+ to play possibly 1-2 ps4 games for the next 6 mo's.

indysurfn3965d ago

@blackpanther25 There is a 99.9999% chance that you are a kkk. Because most black racist aren't stupid enough to try to incite the majority to bold faced racism. It is usually a white supremist that pretends to be a minority racist, and I say that as a understatement. Go back to Microsofts layer!

nveenio3965d ago

Got notified this morning that my Standard Edition was automatically upgraded to Launch Edition with release date shipping.

I frick'n love Amazon.

KontryBoy7063965d ago

yeah me too I was lucky to get the launch edition. I pre ordered on Amazon as soon as the conference was over

Flipflopp3965d ago

I had 3 pre ordered. One at Amazon, Bestbuy, and Gamestop. I have 2 now. Cancelled the Amazon one. Dont want to take a chance with shipping or damage happening. I got store pickup on the other two.

Cha0tik3965d ago

Yeah, Me too! Can't wait to receive my console on launch day!

Reibooi3965d ago

for me I will do what I can to get one for launch but I want stress about it. The game I really want it for right out the game is Infamous Second Son and that won't be coming on launch but a little into Q1 of next year so as long as I can get my hands on one before that point then I'm happy.

TVippy3965d ago

I'll happily let you idiots beta test it for me. :-)

papashango3965d ago

avengers19783966d ago

Pre ordered fully paid for awaiting firm release date from Sony so I can plan a week of vacation

NaAsAr3966d ago

i am waiting on a firm date as well. but i will take only a couple of days ;)

OcelotRigz3966d ago

Ahhh remember how i took the day off when PS3 was released, which was a Friday here in ireland so i had the whole weekend.
Cant wait!

Narutone663966d ago

I saw a rumor somewhere, that the release date for the PS4 is 3 days before Black Friday. November 26, 2013, an online wholesaler accidentally published the date. This wholesaler supplies electronic devices including PS4 and Xbox One, to Amazons, Best Buy, etc. I don't know if it is just a placeholder, but since it's so close to Black Friday, it is plausible.

LackTrue4K3966d ago

It sucks I have to wait a bit more...on the plus side!!!
"Picking up The last of Us today!!!!!"

jonboi243966d ago

Hahaha Greatness Awaits for me on launch day......pre-ordered the first moment I could

Muffins12233966d ago (Edited 3966d ago )

WHEN will the next shipment be?I couldn't get launch edition so i got stranded,also could it be possible for amazon to be able to get more launch units?So if i pre order the standard edition would it be switched to the launch edition if they relies they get more in for launch?I pre ordered mine right after the launch edition became unavailable.

0ut1awed3966d ago

I posted this above but I believe this is relevant to you...

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

ZombieKiller3966d ago

Reserved at Gamestop....no trouble here. where there's a will...there's a way. The people that wanted it that bad, made it a point already to reserve one.....and no I don't mean Xbox one..

Rhaigun3966d ago

That's what I did. Showed up at GameStop at 10am. I was the first one there, and the first on the reserve list.

showtimefolks3966d ago

Not sure I want to buy he at launch but most likely will

Can't imagine how these thing will sell on ebay though lol. I have few friends in Europe and they were telling me to sold out everywhere. Europe is more PS territory and we are forgetting about Japan

Damn Sony make sure you make as many consoles as possible people want one and will buy one

Sayai jin3966d ago

LOL. why were your fortunate. You paid for it.

PurpHerbison3966d ago

Good thing I am going to start looking into getting one in 2014.

90Supra3966d ago

I won't be having any trouble. Got 2 of them reserved at my local gamestop. Pre-order #1 and #3.

Nice...

KwietStorm_BLM3966d ago

How is it 1 and 3? You got out of line and went back?

dp2774073965d ago

I'm thinking gamestop has a limit of one unit per person so maybe he had someone else get his 2nd idk.

SDS Gamerfiend3966d ago

Pre-ordered day 1 at bestbuy!!!

Foliage3966d ago

You might not get one second shipment as well.

Amazon sold out almost immediately for the PS4 launch shipment; the "standard version" was posted for pre-order soon after. This standard version signifies the second shipment and beyond. Amazon is reporting that the Standard shipment can no longer be guaranteed; due to the high volume.

PS4 is selling out multiple shipments.

Spontogical3965d ago

That word is so awesome 'shipments' haha have no idea why it makes me laugh :p

medman3966d ago (Edited 3966d ago )

Especially considering Infamous Second Son is expected in January 2014. I can wait till after Christmas, if I have to. Although it would be painful not to be able to play Watch Dogs on PS4. But I will gladly wait.

MYSTERIO3603965d ago

Any one else pre-order from Game? not gamestop

b_one3965d ago

still there are lots of ppl who want xbone coz of one game...

blackbeld3965d ago

You mean TitanFall?

Eventually it will come to PS4 too. All EA games are multiplats.

I am sure this is another time exclusive deal from M$oft.

I know how it feels man. It s*cks but I can deal with it.

b_one3965d ago

games are just a bait, i dont want to be held hostage by xbone policies... steam like prices? yeah right...

greenlantern28143965d ago

got mine paid off at gamestop however this means i will be waiting in line. but i will be the first person in that line. just please tell me the day it is coming so i know what days to take off work.

3-4-53965d ago (Edited 3965d ago )

Not money for it at Launch, but I also want to play BF4 ASAP, so I'll be getting one early 2014 probably.

I've got BF3 on my xbox + 3DS + Fifa/PES in Sep. & Total War: Rome 2 via PC to hold me over in the mean time.

HK5A3966d ago

I was going for X1 but the more I read posts about it
the more I hate it, I'm buying a PS4 because MS fucked me as gamer.

I will buy the X1 in Q1/Q2 2014, the console have great titles....... But ps4 will be my main.

greenlantern28143965d ago

dont buy it at all. i to think that they had some great looking games but trust me if no one buys xb1 all the 3rd party exclusives they had will jump to ps4. or hope that ms will take away all the crap people have stated they really dont want. think about it if they did not have to package a kinect 2 in every xb1 then they could drop the price which is another thing people are not happy with

yesmynameissumo3966d ago

Not me. Got 2 launch consoles pre-ordered.

jagstatboy3966d ago

LOL, one for eBay I take it.

yesmynameissumo3966d ago

:) Yeah one for ebay, but if any of my boys can't get their hands on one, it's there's for retail.

Saksoy3965d ago

@muffin.

That sounds wrong in so many different levels.

Ares84HU3966d ago

I don't have this problem. Preordered it and amazon even sent me an email that it will be delivered to me on launch day. No more waiting days in long lines. Did that for PS3, wasn't fun.

jdktech20103966d ago

That's no fun at all. I remember for the 360 launch I saw 30 people lined up outside the day before and I just casually walked in on release day and picked up a 360 without waiting at all.

There's too many options these days to play that waiting game anymore.

kneon3966d ago

I would never wait in line, but I can't even be bothered to go to the store and pick it up something I've reserved.

I just order online and usually have it before noon of release day.

Lovable3966d ago (Edited 3966d ago )

Will be my christmas present for myself haha...I'm gonna buy it, put it under the tree and surprise myself lmao Forever alone

SpinalRemains3966d ago

I would do that, as I like your thinking, but waiting sux. I wanna open it and play that bitch the moment it arrives.

In fact, the day prior my PS3 will be sunset and the HDMI will be waiting to plug into the new device.

Everything will be ready on delivery day. May even sit outside with a 12 pack, waiting for the driver.

Rip-Ridah3966d ago

Call me OCD, but everything will have to be new that gets hooked up to my bad boy. Even getting a brand new N Router & high speed ethernet cord for when my girl gets on her Facebook crap. (No offense to any of you Facebookers out there, lol ;-)) Gotta take advantage of my Extreme 105 down 20 up connection. Google Fiber, hurry up & get to the San Francisco Bay Area! Comcast is killing our wallets!

vigilante_man3966d ago

Now that's patience!

I wouldn't last a day if it was under my tree.

3-4-53965d ago

k there is no way your no immediately opening that thing up and playing it. Don't even try to kid yourself. lol

Bethesda Needs to Reduce the Gaps Between New Fallout and Elder Scrolls Releases

Waiting a decade for new instalments in franchises as massive as Fallout and Elder Scrolls feels like a waste.

Read Full Story >>
gamingbolt.com
-Foxtrot9h ago

Microsoft have Obsidian but I feel it's Bethesda who just don't want to play ball as they've always said they want to do it themselves.

Once MS bought Zenimax in 2020 they should have put the Outer Worlds 2 on the back burner, allow Bethesda to finish off its own Space RPG with Starfield (despite totally different tone why have two in your first party portfolio with two developers who's gameplay is a tad similar) and got Obsidian for one of their projects to make a spiritual successor to New Vegas.

When the Elder Scrolls VI is finished Bethesda can then onto the main numbered Fallout 5 themselves.

The Outer Worlds 2 started development in 2019 so putting it on the back burner wouldn't have been the end of the world, they'd have always come back to it once Fallout was done and it would have been nicely spaced out from Starfields release once they had most likely stopped supporting it and all the expansions were released.

If they did this back in 2020 when they bought Zenimax and the game had a good, steady 4 - 5 years development, you might have seen it release in 2025.

We are literally going to be waiting until 2030 at the very earliest for Fallout 5 and all they seem bothered about is pushing Fallout 76.

RaidenBlack7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

Its not just only Todd not playing ball.
Obsidian have made a name for themselves in delivering stellar RPGs, but most famous once have always been sequels/spin-offs to borrowed IPs like KOTOR 2, Neverwinter Nights 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Stick of Truth etc.
Obsidian wants to invest more in their own original IPs like Outer Worlds or Pillars of Eternity with Avowed.
Similar to what Bluepoint & inXile wants to do or Kojima is doing (i.e not involving anymore in Konami's IPs).
So yea, even if New Vegas has the most votes from 3D Fallout fans, Obsidian just wants to do their own thing, like any aspiring dev studio and MS is likely currently respecting that.
But a future Fallout game from Obsidian will surely happen. Founder Feargus Urquhart has already stated an year ago that they're eager to make a new Fallout game with Bethesda, New Vegas 2 or otherwise. Urquhart was the director of the very first 1995's Fallout game after all.
And don't forget Brian Fargo and his studio inXile, as Brian Fargo was the director of Fallout's 1988 predecessor: Wasteland

KyRo4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Obsidian should take over the FO IP. They're do far better with it than Bethesda who hasn't made a great game for almost 15 years

Duke193h ago(Edited 3h ago)

I disagree. Part of these games is the support for the mod community. If they move to releasing a "next game" every 2 or 3 years, the modding support plummets and the franchises turn into just another run of the mill RPG.

Make the games good enough to withstand the test of time, to keep people coming back to them and expanding on them with mod support.

--Onilink--1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

I dont think anyone is saying they need to come out every 2 years (not to mention almost no game is released that quickly anymore)

By the time Fallout 5 comes out, it will be more than 15 years since Fallout 4 came out (same with ES6 coming out 15 years after Skyrim). Even if you want to use F76 as the metric for the most recent release, that one came out in 2018. It will be a miracle if F5 comes out before 2030

The point is that for a studio that doesnt seem to operate with multiple teams doing several projects at once, that their projects normally take 4-5 years as a minimum, and that now they even added Starfield to the rotation, it becomes a 15+ years waiting period between releases for each series, which doesnt make sense. Imagine that Nintendo only released a mainline Mario or Zelda game every 15 years…

They either need to start developing more than 1 project at a time, let someone else take a crack at one of the IPs or significantly reduce their development times

mandf1h ago

Yeah I’m going to say it, who cares about the modding community when making a game? Half the time developers only tolerate modders because they fix there game for them.

Skuletor2h ago

Yeah, let's all advocate for smaller gaps between series' releases, then we'll probably get headlines about how the series have dropped in quality and they could have benefited from more time in the oven. Let them cook.

SimpleSlave1h ago

"how the series have dropped in quality and they could have benefited from more time in the oven" So every Bethesda game then? Got it.

Listen, I would agree if this was about From Software or something, but Bethesda?

🤣

C'mon now. What timeline are you from?

isarai1h ago

Hows about you focus on quality, just a thought 🤷‍♂️

Sciurus_vulgaris1h ago

Bethesda [or Microsoft] would have to reallocate internal and external studios towards fallout and elder scrolls titles. Bethesda has the issue of developing 2 big IPs that are large RPGs on rotation. If you want more Fallout and Elder Scrolls, development will have to be outsourced.
