    The hunt continues.....

    So I logged onto Argos and managed to Reserve a Disc version but without a Reservation number yet. Is it worthless or am I in a queue somewhere?

    worthless

    You didn't miss anything. They have not added stock since launch day.

    Keep an eye on it though.

    Smyths told me there will be a pre order going live this weekend. Couldn't confirm what day but said it will go live at 8/9 on the morning. They expect a large batch.

    I was told smyths get stock today so i imagine it goes live tomorrow morning although at what time iam unsure as some say 4am , others say 9am

    If they just did it now they could take a huge portion of customers from HN before people pay for a digital version when they actually want the disc version.

    Why would they care? They're going to sell out in minutes anyway, if not seconds.

    No.....Far better for everyone on here to PM him with seemingly genuine offers continually so he hasn't a clue who is actually looking to buy or not and generally wreck his head.

    There's now a queue option on GAME UK if anyone's interested in trying it.

    https://game.queue-it.net/?c=game&e=liveps&t=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.game.co.uk%2Fen%2Fm%2Fplaystation-5-marvels-spider-man-miles-morales-2836762%3Ft_origqs%3D&cv=1429629735&cid=en-GB

    That's the link from Twitter. No idea if they've used a similar queue website address before so proceed with caution.


  • Registered Users Posts: 111 ✭✭m8051


    I managed to order a digital version on Amazon UK and I am delighted with it although my intention was to get the disc version ... anyone would be interested in swap + cash please pm. Thanks lads.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,106 ✭✭✭dar83


    I love how seemingly loads of people bought themselves a Digital version when they didn't even really want one, whereas there are people out there looking for exactly that, who now still can't get one because some others just had to buy something they didn't want out of desperation. :P

    What has Sony done to everyone! :pac:

    argos not showing dates etc when you got to reserve now.

    The Game UK queue won't work for Irish users.. I tried 2 times with VPN's and it wouldn't add to cart.

    Edit: I've been told certain IP addresses work.. so try changing it a few times.

    For those that cant get a ps5, Why not just buy an xbox? lol

    I am joking of course although i am surprised with the demand for the PS5 when the Xbox is arguably the better console in terms of specs/power etc

    I'm getting a separate page entirely when I even click on it that says it's out of stock. Have been since early this morning.

    With the exception of those shopping for Santa, I think it's madness reserving and buying a digital one if it's a disc one you want. :eek:

    Sat in Q - then it tells you they dont ship international - may need a VPN

    It's actually good to be reminded of the pure greed that seeps through Irish culture from top to bottom (aware it's not us alone)

    click quick order on the top of the page and enter the cat number of the product.

    I bought a Series X a couple of weeks ago and even I can see why the PS5 is the hotter commodity at the moment. It has a couple of good exclusives whereas Xbox really only has Gamepass which might not appeal to most people as much as it does to me.

    I'm delighted with my Series X but I'm not sure a lot of avid gamers would be because they'd already have played most of the GP stuff that I'm only getting to now.

    I've gotten 2 emails from them so far too, no link to purchase yet.

    Smythstoys site gone.

    Sorry guys my bad, it's just blocking foreign VPN. Good to know it only works with Irish IP.
