You Might Have Some Trouble Getting A PS4 This Year

Did you pre-order the PS4 when the price was announced this week? No? Well, you might have some trouble getting one then.

[blackbeld]

"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.

[Abash]

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

[JoGam]

me too

[Snookies12]

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

[teedogg80]

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

[cervantes99]

Me too!

[Philoctetes]

Same here. Glad I preordered early.

[jdktech2010]

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_Slayer]

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

[morganfell]

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.

[majedx9]

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

[steven83r]

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.

[Panthers]

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

[mistertwoturbo]

Dang it I didn't pre-order fast enough

[TheRacingX]

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

[trancefreak]

Yup me too! PS4 2013 Launch edition :)

We're all on the PS4 train WooT WooT!

[0ut1awed]

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

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

[ssj27]

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-Error]

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

[Boody-Bandit]

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.

[mikeslemonade]

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.

[Armyntt]

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

[Narutone66]

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.

[RandomGamer]

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.

[koston3647]

Me too!

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

[BattleAxe]

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.

[indysurfn]

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!

[darkness625]

What does the launch edition offer.

[blackpanther25]

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

[Chris_GTR1]

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.

[indysurfn]

@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!

[nveenio]

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

I frick'n love Amazon.

[KontryBoy706]

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

[Flipflopp]

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.

[Cha0tik]

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

[Reibooi]

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.

[TVippy]

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

[papashango]

launch edition ps4 and Xbone here

[Moonman]

*Meanwhile at Sony* :)

http://bookriot.com/wp-cont...

[blackbeld]

Das gif is Epic.

:)

+bubble

[elhebbo16]

Sony is throwing money out the window?

[avengers1978]

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

[NaAsAr]

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

[OcelotRigz]

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!

[Narutone66]

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.

[LackTrue4K]

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

[Ipunchbabiesforfun]

why are you quoting yourself?

[jonboi24]

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

[Muffins1223]

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.

[0ut1awed]

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

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

[ZombieKiller]

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..

[Rhaigun]

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

[showtimefolks]

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 jin]

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

[PurpHerbison]

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

[90Supra]

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

Nice...

[KwietStorm_BLM]

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

[dp277407]

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

[SDS Gamerfiend]

Pre-ordered day 1 at bestbuy!!!

[Foliage]

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.

[Spontogical]

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

[medman]

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.

[MYSTERIO360]

Any one else pre-order from Game? not gamestop

[b_one]

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

[blackbeld]

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_one]

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

[greenlantern2814]

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.

[3-4-5]

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.

[HK5A]

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.

[greenlantern2814]

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

[yesmynameissumo]

Not me. Got 2 launch consoles pre-ordered.

[Muffins1223]

Damn you lucky bastard XD

[jagstatboy]

LOL, one for eBay I take it.

[yesmynameissumo]

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

[elhebbo16]

Good Guy Sumo.

[Muffins1223]

can i be your boy

[Saksoy]

@muffin.

That sounds wrong in so many different levels.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Well now I don't feel so guilty.

[Ares84HU]

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.

[jdktech2010]

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.

[kneon]

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.

[Lovable]

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

[SpinalRemains]

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-Ridah]

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!

[n4g_someone]

Nice one man, haha

[vigilante_man]

Now that's patience!

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

[3-4-5]

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

[Chapster]

I'll pitch a tent if I have to.

[Pintheshadows]

I bet you will.

[PositiveEmotions]

Ima pre order mine at gamestop on july 1st for day one release

[josephayal]

I pre ordered PS4 and Xbone today

[Moonman]

I just stuck with PS4U. ;p

[josephayal]

Me too, I will be selling my Xbox one on ebay

[King_Slayer]

Good luck. I think it would be easier to sell a PS4 on ebay. Why not just get two PS4's... maybe??

[greenlantern2814]

no you wont since seems to me you wont have a problem getting one. that is like saying i am gonna buy a wii u to sell on ebay. you will just be stuck with an xb1 which will take up some storage space,

[brianunfried]

It's better to wait anyways. Most of the hardware bugs will be corrected, more games will be available and some games will be discounted.

[T2]

I dunno how much will be found in the way of bugs, but I can wait to walk into futureshop/walmart... should be in stock 3-4 weeks later...

[JewyMcJew]

Normally I would agree but with MILLIONS of consoles being released from day one, the chances of a hardware bug is low as it would cost Sony a fortune to recall.

On the other hand, if you can wait for the first hardware revision, it will most likely be much quieter and use less energy... if that type of stuff matters to you.

[lsujester]

I'm more worried about that little thing overheating, being it has largely the same hardware as the Xbox1, along with an internal power supply, yet is in a much smaller box. I know Sony are better at this than MS, but that thing is just so tiny for a launch console.

Of course, my launch 360 cooking itself to death has made me paranoid about such things.

[jmc8888]

These are much more inferior hardware wise compared to what the 360/PS3 launched at.

When those launched, basically it would be like having a GTX 780 inside, and a hexcore i7.

These aren't like that.

Which is why the rumors of xbox one overheating is weird. These things should not be overheating.

It's a mobile chip and even the PS4 is half the power of a GTX 780.

My 360 RROD the next feb or march. Still have my launch PS3.

But my 360 also had disc scratch problem, a failed hd, and now has major problems trying to read discs.

I'd be concerned if I was preordering an xbone given MS's history and the xbone's overheating rumors.

But all the reports are that the PS4 is doing great and way ahead of where the xbone is at.

We do all take a risk though that something weird happens and major problems arise.

I feel much safer about PS4 and Sony in this regards.

[PositiveEmotions]

Sony’s media content policy: “if you buy it, you own it”
http://www.vg247.com/2013/0...

[Godhimself_In_3d]

Yes waiting in line sucks but on june 11 i paid for my ps4 in full now i play the waiting game

[digger18]

I have pre ordered mine but am a little worried buying a launch console.
After the cr*p I got from my launch Xbox 360 and Ps3 I was going to wait awhile.

One of my main concerns with the Ps4 is that it's very small and since it has all that wonderful hardware inside, overheating problems might arise

[sourav93]

Have you not seen the vents and grills on that thing? That machine's got more hole than a drug addict.

[DJMarty]

The cooling reminds me of a server rack

[lsujester]

There's plenty of vents on back, but how much is on the front and sides? I don't see much room for air to get into it.

[jizzyjones]

Good thing GTAV and GT6 are coming then

[Dark_Overlord]

I doubt I will, had mine preordered with GAME since 21st Feb :)

[spike]

Pre ordered 3 PS4. Selling 2 keeping one for myself.

[fourOeightshark]

I tried pre ordering 2 at Gamestop but they only allow 1 per household. :/

[WalterWJR]

Should I reserve drive club or is the ps+ edition the same thing game?

[kneon]

It's not the same, it is missing some content

[SecondSon]

Yes it is hence the Drive Club PS+ Edition tittle.
I would rather order another game with that money and just play the free version of Drive Club.

You will get more gaming for your buck that way but it depends how much you like Drive Club.

[Pintheshadows]

The PS+ edition from what I have gathered is just the online component and is missing the single player side.

[Spontogical]

I thought it was just missing cars and tracks.. which undoubtedly will be available to purchase (most likely at a discounted PS+ price) on PSN.

The Career Mode and everything else is complete.

[Monkeysmarts]

Reserve it for the full game. The PS Plus version will be missing some unknown number of cars/tracks.

[patsrule316]

Preordered the Amazon PS4 launch day console. I am going to get either Need for Speed Rivals or the Crew as my racing game, so I'll just take the PS+ version of Driveclub.

[sAVAge_bEaST]

it's just drive club online...

buy bf4

[hesido]

I'd wait to see if the PS+ edition could be upgraded to the full version for a discounted price (might be allow keeping the game should your account expire.)

[sourav93]

Getting one at launch hehe :D

[ShwankyShpanky]

Was pleased to find out yesterday that my local GS still had launch day preorders available, since I lagged and missed out on Amazon. Put down $100 and $5 on KZ:SF (figured that would go over better with the wife than $460 on something I won't get for five months).

Gaming since NES, and this will be my first "Day 1" console. Whee. :D

[twinspectre]

Gaming Since Snes, and this will be my first DAY 1 Console too :)

[Monkeysmarts]

Same here, but I didn't reserve any games yet.

Been gaming hard since NES and this will be my first launch day pickup as well. Bought a Dreamcast maybe a month after it came out... everything else I've waited on. Never been more excited for a console than I am with PS4. This will be a great generation I think.

[steven83r]

Still debating reserving at a Gamestop. Always shady shit with them. Prob give their friends some preordered systems and say they didn't receive enough. Maybe ill just stroll into Walmart or Target.

Gaming Since NES would be 6th Day 1 console. N64, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, PS3. Can't Wait!

[sAVAge_bEaST]

I know right? me too,.. so weird... since nintendo, and never pre-ordered a system.

bf4+ps4=gr8ness

[twinspectre]

i've already pre ordered my PS4 on March :)

[vigilante_man]

A true visionary!

[Mr-Dude]

Glad i did... but why hasnt anybody yet invented a timemachine!

[kamisama]

I pre ordered mine already but the gamestop by my gfs house said they have alot of pre orders left so might just pre oder another one

[betan21]

I got my day one ps4 edition on amazon im good.

[monkey602]

I have had mine preordered since February and paid off since Wednesday. I better get mine anyway!

[Xer0_SiN]

i dont think ill have that problem. i got three already paid for >=).

[Supermax]

Wow peeps all saying been gamein sense snes and nes I'm feelin older every day,was Commodore 64 for me.got my preorder looking for some rocking blue tooth headphones now to be ready for war in planetside2 and bf4!

[kingPoS]

Don't feel bad. Today's teens haven't experienced the 8 & 16bit wars on non blurry contrast rich crt's. They don't know they've missed.

Let them have their phone games. lol

[WeaseL]

Wonder if they will give TV's away at the official launch event like last time

[Akuma2K]

I pre-ordered my PS4 today at the gamestop by my house along with NFS Rivals and Watchdog and paid them off (already had BF4 for PS3 version paid off and just transfered it over to PS4 version), i got one of the two last pre-order slots left.

Now the wait begins, but it'll be a fun one.

[DFresh]

I expected that issue to happen.
Unforunately I won't be able to get a PS4 until I get finished with Boot Camp at RTC Great Lakes (Chicago, IL) and even A-School.
So, by the time I get back then I'll be able to get myself a PS4 as a reward for making it into the U.S Navy and becoming a Sailor.
Hooyah!

[Akuma2K]

Good luck man, im retired army but still boot camp will be tough....think about your PS4 thru the tough times and you'll be ok....lol

Hooyah !!

[elhebbo16]

thank god I still have one whole year before going into boot camp. im gonna have some sweet, sweet time with my PS4 before saying good bye

[smokey_vols]

I'm in the same situation. Three months at Parris Island, South Carolina on September 16th for me. See ya when I get back Playstation!

[MuhammadJA]

Smart people always wait so ignorants get the launch systems and test them for hardware problems. You never know what may come of these launch editions.

[Campy da Camper]

Patient people wait.

Fixed

Edit. And I'm nowhere near patient Lol. I will sleep outside, walk 10 miles or whatever for launch day systems. Thankfully, I got it preordered but I'm still going to midnight release. Firmwares be damned lol

[Der_Kommandant]

I'm scared

[Jaqen_Hghar]

A man emailed Gamestop and they said it should ship out launch day. A man will get his 1 or 2 days after he suspects.

[vigilante_man]

Pre-ordered mine just over a week before E3. What a genius.

Gotta decide on games. Going with Driveclub PS+ version (free), Infamous Second Son & Killzone and for Xmas Watchdogs for starters. Time to treat myself for a change.

[DivineAssault]

got mine pre ordered so im good.. 3 PS4s, ZERO ones..

[sAVAge_bEaST]

binary..010010

[Mister_G]

Pre-orderd mine in February, so I should be okay, fingers crossed.

[Gamesgbkiller]

I'll wait no problem.

More wait .. More games to play :)

WIN WIN ;)

[skyblue14213]

& lower prices for those games too if possible.

[Gamesgbkiller]

You're right :)

[mitchell1188]

I already got one preordered at GameStop fully paid for baybee!!!

[TXIDarkAvenger]

Wasn't planning on getting it at launch or any time soon tbh. I'll wait until FF15 and KH3 come out.

[r40k213]

Oh I already knew this. It's called "being a broke college student."

[TBONEJF]

How bout wait like me. don't RUSH OUT like everyone else. first batch will always have bugs. that's why I'm waiting till either Next SPRING OR SUMMER. don't always have too be the FIRST ONE IN LINE just too get a hot item.

[NeoTribe]

Thats what insurance is for. Ive waited to long to wait even longer.

[jay2]

I pre-ordered on the first day GAME started taking pre-orders, I don't like GAME but I sure as hell better have my PS4 on launch.

[GentlemenRUs]

Launch Edition + 5 games

Watch_Dogs
Knack
Infamous: Second Son
KZ: Shadowfall
Destiny

As well as Driveclub free for PS+ owners :D

So I think I'm well and truly sorted!

*goes back to playing TLOU*

[TakahashiDemon]

I pre-ordered mines the morning after E3.. I think I'm safe :) And we're not that ignorant, there is warranty on all this stuff, if there is any major hardware problems within the first few months, we're on warranty, so long as we don't mess with it, we'll be able to get it fixed. But it shouldn't have too big of problems. I say some stress tests/overheat tests are done before release. PS3 didn't have any major problems which I also got on launch, it did have a yellow light of death, but that did take a while to show up, so long as you know proper care and don't play these things 24/7 then you should be okay in most cases. There are defective consoles, but you normally know of this right away and can demand a replacement from the store/website you purchased it off.

[McLuvn]

History repeats itself....ala ps2

[Aghashie]

My local Game Stop was only reserving 30 PS4 units, but they added some more after reaching the initial number. Think they may still have some open slots for reservations. Though, not every store/country is the same, people may still get lucky checking at ur local store.

[Nicolee]

Pre-ordered one on shopto.net since February ^_^

[Sub-Zero85]

I have mine pre-ordered at my local GameStop , I was first in line because soon as the Sony conference was over and the price was announced I headed straight to my GameStop and camped out I' can't wait to also I have
Killzone SF
Battlefield 4
Watch Dogs
NBA 2K14
Madden 25 reserved I can't wait for the launch !!!!

[Clarence]

Got mine at GameStop. Ready to go. Only thing in not sure about is which game to get first.

[Sub-Zero85]

Killzone : Shadow Fall definitely , and if your into sports games NBA 2K14 and Madden 25 looks amazing , along with Battlefield 4 and Watch Dogs I have 5 games reserved I don't know if all 5 are launch titles but I have
Killzone:Shadow Fall
Battlefield 4
Watch Dogs
NBA 2K14
Madden 25

Ohhh and if your into racers check out Driveclub

[TheNocturnus]

Not me. I was first in line to pre-order mine from my local Gamestop. CAN'T WAIT!!

[skyblue14213]

I was thinking of pre-ordering a ps4, but since most places only have a 2 week to month return policy I am instead going to get a ps4 at a store called target which has a 90 day return policy when the ps4 is available at that store.

[CaulkSlap]

Don't worry guys. The shelves will be full of Xbox Ones. You can laugh at them while you wait on PS4 shipments.

[Sikct9a]

Got my launch PS4 through amazon. Now I'm shopping for a 60+ inch led tv to go with it.

[Ninjamonkey82]

Preordered very early and I'll camp outside the shop need be :).

[Tatsuya]

How do we know if we get the PS4 launch edition on Amazon UK? It just says 'Instant Order'.

[NeoTribe]

Racked up a total of $940 at gamestop from ps4 preorders. Im ready.

[SuperSteve]

Just got home from my local Gamestop. Pre-ordered and paid for in full with cash.

[Metfanant]

guess its a good thing i got online and got myself a "launch edition" from Amazon then huh?

[AJ Hartley]

Pre ordered from game on 21st of feb day after reveal surely getting mine at launch.

[RBdrift]

Stupid question here but I pre ordered mm PS4 on amazon about 6 hours after it was unveiled. But on my purchase order it doesn't say launch PS4 or standard PS4, just PS4. Anyone know which it might be?

[Metfanant]

if you go to the ps4 page on amazon..make sure youre signed in...you should be able to switch between the editions...

up at the top of the page it should say something like : order update you puchased this item on...

which edition does it say that for?

[RBdrift]

I checked and its a launch day edition,thanks for the help.

Microsoft are idiots, I'm living up in northern bc and I moved into a appartment tried to sign up for telus high speed Internet and they told me they're was no ports available that was 6 monthes ago still no ports. So I imagine this type of thing happens alot, but hey there's always xbox 360 lol are they high do they expect gamers with no Internet to be that big of a ms fanboys to skip on a ps4 and stick with the 360. They have their heads so far up they're asses they can smell their own breath.

I preorderd mine at Gamestop in February after the PS4 reveal XD

[TheNocturnus]

Not possible. Gamestop just started taking preorders after Sony announced the price of the PS4.

I've been harping on Gamestop since February to get my preorder in and they wouldn't take my money until a few days ago.

[Elmatoor]

I did at Gamestop. But I live in Sweden so it may be diffrent.

[RE_L_MAYER]

Why cant they have enough launch copies. ?.thats stupid like everyone had a chance to go online and pre order one after they showed it on e 3

[sAVAge_bEaST]

go to your local best buy($25), or gamestop($100) to pre-order....

"Why cant they have enough launch copies" - 360 is jumping ship, and caught them off guard.

[teedogg80]

I think Wal-Mart is taking preorders online. But I have no idea how that works. Probably gotta pay the whole thing off doing it that way.

[TakahashiDemon]

It depends on them, I ordered mines from Game.co.uk as there is no stores here besides Tesco and I don't really trust pre-ordering a console at a supermarket, so website works like this, pay your £20 deposit, you pay for the rest when it gets shipped.. that's the way it should be anyways.

[badkolo]

i was worrying what to get for the ps4, then i realised all games will be available to download as well, so my mind was at ease again.lol

[sAVAge_bEaST]

i think bf4 is the best launch title.. if you like shooters.
it will be 3P1C,.

[DarkZane]

Yes, they will be able to get them this year. All they have to do after launch is wait like 2 more weeks for stores to get a new shipment and just walk in and buy one. Simple as that.

Once the launch is done and the rush is over, it's gonna be ridiculously easy to find.

I preordered mine on amazon.ca wednesday anyway.

[badkolo]

the smartest thing sony can do is create a shortage

they are riding on a momentum that usualy ends with SOLD OUT everywere and parents are going crazy to find one, that will make it a bonified hit.

[plmkoh]

I'm waiting for the Jap release, but they have not announced any news of the local release so no retail/online stores are taking preorders.

[JLT-Sandwitch]

Only reason I wont have one this year is if they don't release in australia this year. I preorded straight away and got a luanch one though so i'm just happy to have one on the first day possible here. Everyone at work keeps telling me to shut up about the ps4 cause their not gamers but apparently I have a glow like I just saw my first born for the first time again lol

[Hipflask]

I pre-ordered mine back in March. I was going to get one regardless.

[tudors]

Crazy thing is that this will result in more Xbox-one sales, if they can't get a PS4 and it's holiday time no doubt they will want to walk away with something.

You would think that the overwhelming love for Sony and the overwhelming hate towards microosft would translate to immediate early success for PS4.

You never know though. The gaming business isn't really taken seriously enough for the average consumer to care all that much. Look at the red ring of death, how that debacle didn't force microsoft to leave the industry, I'll never know.

Either way, all signs point to Sony being very successful out of the gate. It's not like all the positive coverage hurts them. I just wonder what the reality will be.

[Themba76]

im glad too see ppl order 2 or 3 ps4's i want to see microsoft go belly up they deserve it. maybye sega can come back

[PowerPlayaaa]

Preordered mine at GAME in sweden along with knack, killzone. Shadowfall, diablo 3 and watchdogs. Plus one extra controller :-) im all settled :-)

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

Well no sh*t.... Microsoft completely handed Sony the generation for the next 7-8 years.....

[AllyBhoy82]

If your in the UK littlewoods catalogue still have them but they are £80 more however you can pay monthly over a year interest free I ordered mine last night had rewarded credit from previous orders so it cost me £302 but normal price is £439

[Harmy666]

Hmmm, strange, I was able to go to Amazon after reading this article and still preorder a PS4…

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/...

[Sabres]

Just got this email from amazon!

"We are writing to inform you that we received additional PlayStation 4 "Launch Day Edition" consoles and have upgraded your order from the "Standard Edition."'

[Jeff257]

I just pre ordered from Amazon and got a launch day guarantee. I did pre order a Launch day bundle that comes with Knack so it was a little more than just the console but still worth it. They also have bundles that come with Killzone and PS+, BF4 and PS+, or Watch Dogs. Now I can just go to my local Gamestop and preorder the games I want.

[shuuwai]

PS4 with cam Gamestop, since Their good with pre-order. All my 14 games at Futureshop.ca with 20 dollars off per games with 3 or more games in order basket. I was going get the X1, but their PR guy's news on system changed my mind. Even thought I don't buy used games, and have 50Mbps connection. These changes of block used games, 1 hour to 24 hour console's game check, monitor cam, are painting messages like "we don't give two sh** about you", "We tell you what you should like". If we bend over these ahole, what's next games with one year license, their are doing to some of their window products.

[lllll-lllll]

Ordered mine @the end of march :)
Wanted to sell it on eBay, but am not sure now - it might be quite some time before a second, third and fourth batch come in, so...

[generalthadeape]

Sold both of my Xbox 360s and pre-ordered a PS4 less that 10 minutes from hanging up my phone with GameStop.

Luckily, I called to ask because their crappy "Be the First to Know" message system didn't work.

I was #18 out of 20 and am very happy that I took the initiative to find out for myself-- or else I would've been SOL.

I haven't picked a game yet-- not sure all the titles that will be out on release day. I'm also thinking I messed up by not grabbing an extra controller when the guy asked me if I wanted one.

I'll back later today & try to rectify this.

launch day amazon daay 1 bitches

[bigboss716]

:(

I've never bought a console at launch. This would be my first, but waiting for harware kinks to get taken care of can take years. 360 took years to get rid of the RROD. PS3 also took years to take care of the Blu-Ray Drive failures and YLOD, which although happened at a far less rate than the RROD.

Now I'm buying this with my credit card and hopefully the extra year warranty it provides will cover any problems. From what I understand the PS4 will be significantly cooler than what a launch PS3 was so I hope that alleviates a lot of the problems and plus cooling has come a long way if you look at components for PC parts over the years since the current gen started.

[Livecustoms]

Ive got mine pre-ordered ! So excited now !

[adventureghost124]

They have new launch editions now

[My_Outer_Heaven]

Preordered just the console at Game.co.uk :-) Not sure about games at the moment that something I can later decide on.
