Paid 9 bucks for PS+ Extra. Downpumping Stray, Sushi Ghost, Returnal and Demon Soul. Ok to pay 9 bucks to try this crap.

You’ve done bullet hells before right? You really need to not let Returnal’s perma death stop you from progressing..there’s a story to it, fed in bits as you progress, and it’s spooky and all kinds of amazing. Give it a chance :up:
 
Tried Returnal. Doesn’t seem like my kind of game. Died once thus far. But the map is confusing af and most times I don’t know what the woman is trying to find.

Kinda like life story of most women on the planet.

yeah it’s confusing at first. Each level has a boss that, once you kill it, you have the option of skipping it on later attempts. You’ll also open a gate to the next level.
You just have to find the boss.

There are also permanent perks that are hidden throughout the levels that make subsequent runs a bit easier.

I do get it though, it’s not for everyone.
 
Finally got a Playstation 5!!

I had signed up for the Amazon wait list on both a disc system and a disc system bundled with Horizon: Forbidden West. After being on them for months, my turn came up to purchase the Horizon bundle, so I grabbed that and got it 2 days ago.

Unfortunately (to me), Horizon is a digital only version. I'm thinking about putting that up for sale at a price less than retail. Anyone here interested?

Otherwise, totally love the system. The new controller is awesome! Haven't played much on it yet since I'm still finishing up what's left of the PC backlog. Going to start looking for PS5 games soon. :drool:

I saw that deal yesterday. Looks like both xbox & playstations are (mostly) available now, at close to MSRP, so the shortage looks like it's close to being over. That being said, they'll prolly sell out for the christmas holiday, so if people are looking to buy a PS5 or Series X, now is the time to do it.
 
the PS5 is still around 720-750€ (over here), if there is a stock. For me, personally, not worth that amount of bucks, but i'm still happy to see others get their hands on one.
 
Congrats on the PS5! There’s still not a huge library of next gen games, but there’s enough to have good fun with it for a while. Enjoy! :up:

On Ebay perhaps, but you can get it for retail price or with games.

Is the one I used, got mine from Baur.de. Sister got hers from Otto.

Just depends how much you want one :p.

sure it depends on where you look for it, and yes, you can get one for as "low" as 689,99€ (Standard) or 599,00€ (Digital). Maybe i'll get one in the far future when they're down to 400 bucks or so. Right now there aren't enough games to justify it (for me).

You living in Deutschland oder was?

499 is standard, 399 is digital version.

I get the last part, I just don't get your prices :p.

I got mine for retail price, it's just you have to be lucky. Took me 6 months, my sister got "lucky" but it took her a year.

ja, i'm livin Deutschland, auch ohne was :lol:

and yes, i know the prices, but in most cases you simply won't be able to grab one for that price.

Just an example:

https://www.idealo.de/preisvergleic...-playstation-5-ps5-standard-edition-sony.html

Shops with lower prices are almost always fake shops or other shady places.
I don't know a single person who was able to get one for the prices you mentioned. If you have, great.

Whatever. Enough derailing.

Still waiting for a release of Little Devil Inside
 
Still not able to walk in and pick one up. Every time I hear there are some in stock, I have no chance to get there for hours, so I don't bother.

Will I ever be able to casually walk in to a Best Buy and pick one of 15 consoles they have in stock?
 
Really. PS5 are stacked in all shops in Dubai. And at MSRP but only with bundles (like extra controller or game stuff). Maybe come to Dubai and pick one up.
 
as i've said before, people over here completely stopped to care for the console, which tells you a thing or two about it. It's a shame, because it is a great piece of hardware, no question about that.

We’re probably going to see the same shortages in the same places when the pro, or whatever they call it, releases.
