What's got people so vexed?
Nothing. Just fanboys from the other side desperately looking for something negative.
Now, they are demanding people cancel their preorders because they haven’t seen the home screen on PS5 and the hands-on gameplay of Astro's Playroom isn't exciting enough.
Misrepresenting the situation dosnt make you come of as neutral at all. First those reasons arnt the reasons some people are canceling, it's a variety of factors built up over months. Also who is demanding others cancel their orders?

They’re lying. No one with a PS5 preorder is canceling and if they are, ask for the receipts.I‘ve read multiple posts from people here saying that they are definitely cancelling their pre-orders - which they definitely have - because they don’t like the way Sony is communicating information about the console in the run up to its release.
Just figured I’d give them all a chance to help out their fellow gaffers by letting someone else have their definitely real pre-order
Pre ordering anything is rarely a smart move.
What happened that caused people to rage cancel?
They are mad they couldn’t get a preorder.What happened that caused people to rage cancel?
I heard it was PlayStation fanboys false flagging as Xbox fanboys to make Xbox fanboys look bad. The Nintendo fanboys were too busy playing Super Mario 35 to participate.Nobody is cancelling anything.
Most probably some xbox fanboys trying to stir the shit again...
I am VERY mad. Fuck Sony and their shitty email invite. It should have been sent out to their most loyal customers first. Same with MS.They are mad they couldn’t get a preorder.
I’m not cancelling, but I have thought about flipping it on eBay for a good chunk of change. Not really happy with the launch line-up.
I'm definitely considering putting mine up for sale. Just not sure I want to spend $570 just to play Demon's Souls again. That and I can't get over how huge and ugly it is.
I have two disk PS5's I am likely going to cancel. I will wait for the official sony teardown but Sony is trying to push these $70 games and I am not going to bite. I have two choices, buy the console and just play BC games for 6 months from my backlog or just wait 6-9 months to purchase and play new releases on a delayed window ( if I decide to purchase again)
This Japan youtuber event looks like a joke... Doesn't look like anyone actually has the PS5, they are in a controlled room where the unit is already booted . It is a real joke.
No. Me first!I am getting interested so if you just want to let go of your preorder let me know. Thanks.
I'm not cancelling or flipping (please stop saying everyone wants Demon's fucking Souls though - if that was the last game ever to be released I still wouldn't play it, and if I did I'd wait for the PC or Series X versions rather than playing the weakest version of an ancient remake out the gate).
However, it's becoming clearer and clearer to anyone who didn't drink Sony's free love potion that came with the Official PlayStation Magazine one time that the Series X is the better option this launch period. Designed better than Sony's monstrosity, more power, larger SSD with storage expansion ready to go, hugely impressive BC (size of library and technically), Gamepass and the best performing place for third party titles?
It's really not even close any more, is it?
They have the better potential software library based on the quality of past games. But past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance. They could release low quality games in the future that don't live up to their past efforts.That situation remains that right now Playstation has a far better software library

To say otherwise would be like reviewing games before they are out and saying they are great. My biggest worry with each passing generation is that the games cost more and offer less.
Console game manufacturers use so-called conflict minerals from poor African countries that employ children and slave labor.Why are people cancelling their preorders?
What have I missed?
I might have to cancel one or the other. I had some unexpected financial obligations come up that tightened my budget a bit more through the holidays. If I do have to cancel I will get it when they come back in stock at Amazon (trading in current consoles to pay for part of it). I am leaning toward canceling the Series X because I have a capable PC but if Sony does not start giving info (100% PSVR support? Adapter for PSVR? Actually showing features that have been discussed, etc.) I could easily see myself waiting on the PS5. Their silence is going to starts having an impact.I’m 100% serious when I ask why would people cancel? I have mine. Nothing could happen to make me change my mind about either console
