So.... Ummm.... I've got my PS5 motherfeckers!!!
How?!So.... Ummm.... I've got my PS5 motherfeckers!!!
Omg that’s mad
yeah if anyone wants to add me I’m yourmumsface17
DPD came through surprisingly...How?!
Congrats! It wasn't stolen after all?So.... Ummm.... I've got my PS5 motherfeckers!!!
People on the reddit live chat had the same problem but eventually most of them picked one up. They think Kohl's (personally never heard of it) will be re-stocking soon but definitely keep your eye on that live discussion chat, it'll help you known when and where stock is available.I was on during the Best Buy stock drop. They were releasing units every 5-7 minutes. I'd get in my cart, go to checkout and then it'd say "sorry not available anymore."
I had it in my cart 4 times through four rounds of releases and still wasn't able to actually purchase.
The Amazon one? Who knows? I have to take their word for it but it's suspect as feck. The one that came through was from ShopTo via DPD...Congrats! It wasn't stolen after all?
Great service coming through on Sunday night. Shame you couldn't have it earlier but at least you have it now. Enjoy.The Amazon one? Who knows? I have to take their word for it but it's suspect as feck. The one that came through was from ShopTo via DPD...
I'm not an expert so don't take this for gospel but I guess it would be like @altodevil's Series X from Norway - will work but needs a plug adapter.Maybe it’s has been answered or it’s obvious but would a PS5 bought in the US for the US market work in the UK?
My buddy’s trying to get one for his kid for Christmas but all sold out seemingly. He thought of buying one from Walmart, shipping to my house (I’m in the US) then I’d post it to him..
17 year old me was an idiot
Lovely! Enjoy setting it up! Its a brilliant console.DPD came through surprisingly...
You need to look up the warranty info before doing that. Not sure it would be covered over here.Maybe it’s has been answered or it’s obvious but would a PS5 bought in the US for the US market work in the UK on a regular TV?

Luckily mine is quiet, can't even hear it (sorry @Alock1). Getting stuck in now, my kid has finally relinquished the controller and gone to bed.Great service coming through on Sunday night. Shame you couldn't have it earlier but at least you have it now. Enjoy.

@utdalltheway only thing to check is the voltage input. If it is like the Xbox, all models use the same voltage, they just use different cable amperage to get it from the country supply. Plug adaptor fine if the cable works with our 230-250v supply.I'm not an expert so don't take this for gospel but I guess it would be like @altodevil's Series X from Norway - will work but needs a plug adapter.
I love names like that. So amusing. Im like what were you thinking?17 year old me was an idiot
So if you can get the voltage to work, the AC frequency and the video standards (PAL v NTSC) don’t matter? If that’s the case then it’s becomes a possibility.@utdalltheway only thing to check is the voltage input.

PS5 is dual voltage so just need to get correct cable and he will be sorted. I would be careful about just using plug adaptor due to voltage and amperage differences between UK and USA. EU and UK fine to use adaptor as voltages the same.So if you can get the voltage to work, the AC frequency and the video standards (PAL v NTSC) don’t matter?

where the feck is he finding it online to order from?Thanks! Good to know.
He’s running out of time to order it, get it shipped to me then me to him.
I don’t know. He mentioned Walmart the other day, that’s when I got pulled into this. My kids are older so I’m out of this whole out of stock BS which seems to happen too frequently.where the feck is he finding it online to order from?
you now get one free name change.17 year old me was an idiot
PAL & NTSC are analog standards, anything connected over HDMI is only digital and there is no region distinction.So if you can get the voltage to work, the AC frequency and the video standards (PAL v NTSC) don’t matter? If that’s the case then it’s becomes a possibility.
I do want to change it but apparently there can be some consequence regarding game saves so I’m reluctant.you now get one free name change.
Downloaded the new app earlier, it seems better
My first ever email address was booblickerbob@hotmail.comI love names like that. So amusing. Im like what were you thinking?
https://www.pushsquare.com/guides/ps4-to-ps5-all-games-with-confirmed-free-upgradesAnyone know of a list of upgraded games (free)?
I put mine in rest mode for the first time this morning will report if its a disaster when i'm back home but with the issue of the front USB port being useless at charging the controller (takes so long/does nothing at all) i need rest mode so i can keep my controller charged when i'm not playing.MM has an update today so might fix some of the crashing issues for people. Not crashed for me though.
I’m still avoiding rest mode for now, is that right? I did accidentally do it once but had no problems.
I'm in the same boat. I've been charging my spare controller using my phone charger.I put mine in rest mode for the first time this morning will report if its a disaster when i'm back home but with the issue of the front USB port being useless at charging the controller (takes so long/does nothing at all) i need rest mode so i can keep my controller charged when i'm not playing.
Best way to do it imoI'm in the same boat. I've been charging my spare controller using my phone charger.
It feels awkward.Best way to do it imo
Weirdly, none of my USB A to C plug chargers weren't working with the controller, only my Oculus USB C to C worked..I'm in the same boat. I've been charging my spare controller using my phone charger.
I thought you can't actually play any games off the HDD? Just use them for storing and transferring of ps4 games.So the games that are downloaded onto the HDD, will they suffer with worse performances than games on the SSD?
You can play PS4 games off them. Just not PS5. Though I’ve read that even have the external storage plugged in may be causing problems too.I thought you can't actually play any games off the HDD? Just use them for storing and transferring of ps4 games.
I wouldn't go that far.It’s a joke that there’s charging issues at all. Mine stopped charging at all never mind taking an age. Had to reset the controller. They’ve made a mess of this launch.
The PS4 games that are being played will they not get the ps5 upgrades? Or do they need to be on the SSD?You can play PS4 games off them. Just not PS5. Though I’ve read that even have the external storage plugged in may be causing problems too.
