It is completely random for the queue. My wife opened 3 windows before telling me to. So she had 3 windows open to be in the queue to see how long it would take for each one and I also had 3 windows open. All of us showed over an hour wait when it first started but mine counted down faster. By the time I was allowed in, she still had like 40 minutes wait time. I bought 1 and then closed out, eventually she got the notice that they were sold out which is fine because I got one and we just wanted to see how quickly that one would count down. It is a frustrating system but one that seems necessary to keep bots and resellers out.
I think it’s a reasonable system- I’ve been smarting almost every time they’ve had them on ps direct and every single time, except for one, I never had less than an hour. Once I got to 0 and it said entering the store or whatever only to reset itself.
That's awesome. I wish my bundle would ship early too: still in 'preparing for shipment' status.
Nationwide dropped PS5 disc, then digital then xbox series S
Not all the bots. I finally snagged one. Mashed the F out of “move to cart” and then “checkout” until it went through. Took a couple minutes.
Best of luck, hope you get it soon! I haven't had a lot of time to spend with it yet but liking it so far. Friggin huge, lol.
Demon's Souls. That was it for me. Any other 3rd party games will look fantastic on it as well. Otherwise I'm waiting for all these promised free game updates to play last gen exclusives on it.
Yup, I had it initially when I got mine and it jumped to 30'ish minutes maybe 15 min after? Just my experience and I ended up getting one before Christmas and it was delivered in two days.
Yes I got one yesterday where I had 3 chrome browser windows up in the queue and all initially said more than an hour, after a few minutes they dropped down to 43-45 minutes and kept dropping. I am pretty sure it is random on IP address.
None of that was announced as launch games. Why would you expect them to be launch games when they just aren't?
Don't feed the troll. A quick look at his post history shows that. He jumps in this thread and makes a dumb comment towards PS5 then he immediately jumps in the Xbox thread to ball hug the Series X. He's been at it since both consoles launched.
This is definitely true. There is no killer launch game like Astrobot or Miles Morales. I'm enjoying my Series X simply because my BC and Game Pass games look better and load faster than One X. I'll definitely get PS5 when there is a redesign.
They are definitely going to be extremely hard to guess for a while still- I think reality is March, but at least through January. The average person isn’t going to be able to buy one in a store or online whenever they want for awhile.
We can't say that for sure. 2021 stimulus check is gonna jack up the price back to pre-xmas, esp those who didn't get one as a gift....
Think that's a bit optimistic... but hopefully. I'm glad people are waiting opposed to buying from scalpers for the most part. Everything still selling as soon as it's released. No sense paying double from a scalper, especially since anything you can play on a 5 can be played on a 4, minus Astro's Playroom. I think around May / Summer the stock position will be much better. Limited; but certainly not as hard.
In almost all cases the same or better on ps5 with regards to loading. Ps4 games. All real ps5 games load so much faster than ps4 games, even the patched ones like got.
The games that haven't been specifically patched for the PS5 mostly run as they do on the PS4 Pro, with the added benefit of faster loading times. Some games without a locked FPS will benefit from higher FPS as well.
Better framerates on a lot of games and Demons Souls still looks amazing even in 1080p.
I’ve never once cared about how long I’ve played a game. I especially don’t understand how looking at that is “fun.” Lol
I understand and in the same way there are people that find people like that funny. It’s hilarious to picture someone looking at how much time they’ve played a game and having “fun” doing that. Not what I would consider fun but people find fun in all sorts of weird things.
