Just paid off my Amazon order and just placed a Vita order. This is less than a week after buying a Wii U. Lots of new gaming experiences ahead!

H-How!? Very jealous ;)

Can I ask what bundle you got? Solo or something else? Curious to see the mega bundle, even the Killzone bundle when someone gets it. Got recently reminded they apparently have a "Special edition of KZ" in them, whether thats still true though, I don't know.

Otherwise, enjoy it man!
 
I forgot I had a shopto preorder and they charged me. Does anyone know if it comes with PS+ like the american PS4?

Also know any places to get the games cheap other than playasia?

Does anyone know if the Megabundle comes as one box or as loads of boxes?

Thats a very good question actually! I pressumed it would be one box as the art work was like that, but just found out that the knack bundle in the US just had the game inside standard PS4 packaging. Not sure if that was the store that put it in or something. Hope I get a special box anyway, I'd hype over it more :D

It's American, he was posting about it a couple of days ago as it was in shipping.

Glad to see you got it and it works, I can only imagine the nightmare that would have ensued if the thing was broken.

Man, just one more week... thank Jeebus for Zelda, hopefully that'll keep me sane in the meantime.

Just got confirmation that my PS4 has been sent from the retailer. I'm in Norway. Could it be? Or will it be held back by the postal service for 10 days. Exciting none the less!

I'd get more hyper having to open multiple boxes, like Christmas Day!
 
Fuck, I'm pretty worried about next week. Had to go to the bank today to speak to them about my card being blocked, and they had to cancel it as it was the safest option. So I have a new card coming in 4-5 working days and I've read stories here about adding a new card on Amazon and the delivery date being changed :/

Should I contact Amazon to explain the situation? Anyone know when they will start shipping the PS4s?

How do you pay for your Amazon order before it ships? I can't see that anywhere on the site (UK)?

Step 1) buy yourself amazon gift cards
Step 2) apply gift cards to Amazon order
Step 3) ...
Step 4) Profit?

They'll start late Wednesday night I imagine. Phone them.

With all these people canceling their killzone mega bundles from amazon.de, I get my hopes up a bit more for getting it next weekend.. Should've pre-ordered here in Holland, but the deal was too good to pass up back then.

Anyway: can't wait!
 
I'm getting the Gamer bundle on Amazon, but I'm still undecided about what other game to pick up at launch; maybe Assassin's Creed 4.

The wait's killing me but next gen is almost here.

Hey UK Gaf anyone know of a good ps3 carry case or if there is a good ps4 carry case? I travel alot and want to transport my ps4 from home alot and need a decent case.

Me too ... but the official price should not be 49.99 Euros?

Umm... At least in Finland it's 60€ (actually 65-69€ in most places). And I want to it to arrive at launch.

I just checked Amazon.de and Amazon.it (viewed your profile) and the Camera is 59€ on both, so I guess that really is the official price.

I changed the card on my Amazon PS4 order last week with no problems
 
My local game seem to think the mega bundle will all be seperate...which dont make sense as they have said its in short supply! Though they are rubbish and havent even confirmed if i got my bundle choice yet.

Am looking forward to picking it up next weekend, hopefully the mega bundle and knack

So I've got BF4 on pre-order but given the MP hassles and stupidly short campaign mode, I'm thinking ACIV instead.

I'm also getting the Amazon gamer pack so maybe both overdoing it on FPS?

What say you Euro/AustralasiaGAF?

Buy amazon gift vouchers, copy the code that you get and then open your PS4 order and add it at the bottom.

This will reset your delivery date as it did mine a few weeks ago. I think they went through in bulk and changed them all back so my order is fine now.

I wouldn't go near it at this point.

Got my ShopTo Killzone Mega bundle order processing email yesterday, got a 1TB SSHD ordered today and I have nearly £200 of PSN vouchers ready to invest in my game library....

Guys a question from a tech idiot....

I have a Samsung T220 monitor which outputs 1680x1050 and a 32" LG TV that only does 720p/1080i.

Any idea how the PS4 will cope with the monitor? Will it just force it down to 1280×720 or will it meet it in the middle somewhere? Would I be better just sticking with the TV until I get a new one?

Whats the deal with the ShopTo 'processing' emails?

I only preordered (and paid off at the time) a PS4 and games the weekend just gone, payment has been taken and my order already says 'processing'. I only ordered from them as they guarantee xmas delivery, but does the fact i'm 'processing' already mean I should get it pretty soon after release?

I don't know whether paying for everything upfront jumps you up the queue over those who haven't, I wouldn't have thought so.

Different aspect ratio. You'll get the signal as 720p but there will be black borders.
 
I'm really nervous about my Zavvi order, it's been "Awaiting Stock Pick" since I ordered it after it was unveiled and have a despatch date of 31/12/13 (which also has not changed since the initial order).
