Terribly angry about this whole fiasco. I signed up for the Sony "Email me when preorders go up" thing months ago, yet no email. Sony said the would not drop preorders out of nowhere, then that it would start today the 17th.. Only for me to wake up this morning with all pre-orders already out of stock and zero mails from Sony to preorder one.

Next time either make the predecessors available during your announcement ... Or put a proper preorder embargo with a clear lift date... And don't tell your customers it'll start tomorrow then allow all the retailers to sneak up their preorder pages at random times after the press conference.

Yes, I have a disc version from Amazon, I may switch to a DE, but only if I decide to pickup a XSX as I do still have some old BR movies around.

I had one in my cart at Best Buy and tried to checkout for two hours but the button didn't work. Eventually, after hitting checkout for two hours it told me they were sold out! :(

I went thru the same thing about 2am Central time. I had been trying continuously and slowly kept getting to the next screen and finally after 2 hours it let me get one.
 
I got one, was actually the first console I was able to pre-order. I think pre-order going live in the middle of the night and Sony not saying "pre-order now live" at the end of the presentation helped out quite a bit.
 
PS5 Digital at Target.

Super excited. I have a few GameStop giftcards I'll be using for PSN cards to get Demon Souls and R&C.

I can't believe we're already at the point of preordering them. They're less than two months away!

Was grateful to be able to secure 1 physical edition on Amazon for my son and 1 physical edition for myself from Target(We play a lot of online co-op together like Destiny 2, Borderlands 3, etc).

Good luck for those of you still in the hunt. You'll get one!

Cancel your preorder so someone who is actually a PS player can enjoy themselves this November.. get your XSX on the 22nd and be gone.

Had a horrible time trying to secure one to no avail online here in Canada.

Tried Best Buy, EBGames, thesource, London Drugs, Amazon to name a few. Incredibly frustrating.

Will try to duck out of work when London Drugs and EBGames open in a bit to try to get a preorder done in person.

Yup. My friend told me that their store had opened up pre-orders in their physical stores at GameStop. Called up my GS and they said they had them open. I was the only one in the store to pre-order one. EZPZ.

Are you talking about today or was this last night? Help a dude out that standing outside of a GameStop right now.

No, and to be honest, I'm kind of glad. What is there at launch other than Spiderman, which looks good, but I'm in no particular rush to play.

I'll try to nab one in 2021 when there are some compelling exclusives available and hopefully a black color variant of the hardware!

Destruction Allstars, free AstroBot, Demons Souls (Which looks insane), DMCV with Vergil and upgraded with full global raytracing, Destiny 2 upgraded, COD Black Ops, CP2077 and Godfall...

Followed in a few weeks by Kena and Ratchet and Clank and others.

Early 2021 would make sense though, I got my PS4 the February after launch.

Wait, Demon's Souls is launch?! Shit, now I need to find a way to get one.

All that other stuff I don't care about or would play on PC anyway.

I'm not planning on getting one until next year, but I was actually really surprised at how easy it was. Had plenty of opportunities to get one but stood firm on my original plan.

I have one at Walmart and Amazon, plus I got the Sony email last night while asleep. I'll probably cancel the Walmart one in a few weeks, ignore the Sony offer and just keep the Amazon one.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Waiting for an Amazon pre-order. Was live for about 10 minutes last night but unfortunately was away from my computer at the time.

Didn't get a Sony invite, despite owning hundreds of digital PS4 games across four different consoles of theirs.

I guess I'll get one eventually, though at this point I won't really worry too much about missing out on launch day.

Nah, too late for the Amazon preorder, unless they get more. I'm not too worried about it, I'm fine picking this thing up sometime next year.

Mine is secured for early 2021. Which is fine, because the launch doesn't do it for me bar Demon's Souls.

I'll likely get an S in November, put GP on it and use that.

Not yet unfortunately. Tried all night to get one and gave up in frustration. All well guess I'll just play PS4 games till next year unless more become available.

I grabbed one from Target and one from Amazon, both disc versions. Will let a friend buy the other one, as I don't want two.
