I haven't even been trying so far, but I have sometimes peeked into threads talking about the PS5 to see if they're still difficult to attain. Why is that? We're going on six months later, aren't we? That's kind of ridiculous for them to not be able have things in stock.

Well, sorry. I don't know. But thus far, there hasn't been any good horror games announced.

I would get one for a new The Last of Us game immediately. 😀

Nowadays, I'm more open to the idea of owning a Series X than a PS5. It all depends on Persona 6 being a PS5 exclusive or not.

Never been an Xbox person so I won't be getting the Series X. As for the PS5, while I would love to have one I'm waiting till Forspoken and Final Fantasy XVI are out and (hopefully) have good reviews. I do love the design of it and have a designated place that I will put it. I'm also considering upgrading my TV to one with 4 HDMI ports so I can have my Switch, PS3, PS4, and eventual PS5 hooked up.

Hopefully by 2022 they will be more widely available. I remember Sony announcing ten million units had been sold and I thought, "yeah 5 to actual consumers and the rest to scalpers." Scalpers must be stopped.

The bright side of not being able to get into current gen so soon is that many titles will be on sale, ahahah

Some mom and pop shops in my local area are selling PS5s (digital) for very low mark ups. Like under 500, but then again, do you trust them? I see Walmart currently selling for 800 -1000. Maybe I should investigate lol

WHAT?! My local Walmart, whenever they get inventory, is selling them at the MSRP of $499

I think the Walmart website will list products being sold by outside sources (similar to Amazon.) So it’s not Walmart really setting that mark up. Gotta watch out for that when shopping with them online.

Mine is apparently coming tomorrow! I impulse bought it during a Walmart restock a couple weeks ago and they said it would arrive late September. But got the email today that it shipped early!

I honestly didn’t expect I would be able to snag one during the restock since they sell out so fast, but when it added to my cart successfully I just said screw it and put it on a credit card. Thanks future me!

Thank you! It still hasn’t arrived, unfortunately. FedEx had moved the delivery date from today to yesterday when it first shipped. Then late last night, they moved it back to today. And now they’ve pended it with no estimated delivery date. Was really hoping it would come in today so I wouldn’t have any issues signing for it while I’m working. I’m trying to be patient though as I know there are bigger problems right now.

That said, someone else who ordered from the same place during a later restock got theirs already, so I’m a little jelly. 😭
