Well it’s been a rough journey. But I’m proud to say boys, I got one. Was able to snag the standard console and the headset from Target.

It was up on Target, two buddies told me I rushed there got my order in as quickly as possible. Then told two of my other buddies and they were too late it’s apparently gone already there again now.

It's the randomness of the preorders going live that are killing me. But congrats!

I’d keep an eye out there though and Best Buy said apparently more in stock soon as well as GameStop

Thanks man but yeah I know the pain. The randomness and just having to hear about it or catch it at the right time.

my local Game Stop only had 6 (the one with the optical drive) for pre order my friend wanted one but worked days so me being a good bro got up and was one of the 6 (I was 5) to pre order one for him.

For anyone still looking, 9 pm eastern time more pre orders are going up on Wal Mart. Just a heads up.

I decided to go on eBay and just type in PS5 and what I'm seeing just makes me madder by the second.

I would never get one from a scalper. If I miss out on a console I'd rather wait than pay up and encourage that practise.

I did not get one for myself, cause A: I am not getting one for a while and B: it was one per customer so I would not have gotten one anyway.

oh. haha. I misread your post then.

well, you are an even better friend preordering for your friend like that!

Well, it was to be expected but it was nice to hope and dream, but Sony officially confirms PS1, PS2, and PS3 not BC on PS5.

PS5 Won't Be Backwards Compatible With PS3, PS2, or PS1 Games - IGN

Guess this means I'll start looking around for a used PS3.

Also, Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition is getting a physical release at launch. And only $40. I'm going to pick this one up too.

Oh man sure hope not this year though man expect crap lol. You getting spiderman mm? I think i remember you being one of the few people other than me on hear that liked amazing spiderman 1 and 2 movies back when they came out lol. Maybe it went threw because it got to midnight pacific so the 17th has perorders where supposed to start than and we never got told like what time on that date.

Yup, that was me. They're still my favorite superhero movies ever, man. Haha. Of course I'm getting Spider-Man: MM, I'm so hyped to play another Spidey game. That's the number one reason I'm getting a PS5 so soon.

That's really smart though about it reaching midnight pacific, I hadn't even thought of that!

How does anyone care about PS-PS3 games working on a PS5?
