I placed my order in Gaming Gadgets facebook at 12pm sharp as evident from the time stamp of the message. I bet there are plenty of others who would have done the same. Not sure how they're gonna select the ones who made it into the list.

As much as we feel very disappointed I don't think this warrants us to use profanity at them. Don't get me wrong, I understand the frustration but these kind of situations do happen and we just have to accept it. We can just voice out our frustration.

A deal has been made, it is legally binding for them to honor the deal, not to mentioned payment made.

As a first party, surely Sony can reallocate units to right their own mistake. No reputable business would dishonor a sealed deal like this. Perhaps Xbox not sold here make them feel invincible in Msia market. doh.gif

Yep agreed. They make the product themselves and they could have done something about it. My hunch is that there is just so severe shortage and maybe they do not have any unsold units lying anywhere to reallocate. At least they should give some discount or a free game and put them in batch 2.

Oops... so Shopee Sony PO also kena. Damn all these online PO unreliable. After so many years of online mega sales why our online transaction/payment infrastructure still lagging behind?

Can't believe it. Sony themselves cancelling or postponing to a later batch. I wonder what will 3rd party retailers do. I think I remember seeing someone reported sen heng doing the same. Not sure about other retailers. This is killjoy.

Games are price from usd40 to usd70. Depends on publisher.

Most of those re-release games will be usd40.

Which shop in PJ offers good price for games? Is it Impulse?
Or do you purchase online, if yes where?
I'm new to console gaming and this is going to be my first.
Plan to get physical versions of GT7 and Spiderman to start off.

wow, you guys all tv master race. i will still be using my old 1080p tv for ps5. i will upgrade my tv once 4k tv price drop down to 1080p tv level.  laugh.gif

Yeah me too. My 5 years old LG still good enough. It can do max 4K@60Hz and it has one HDMI port which supports HDR. I just bought a new HDMI cable very 2.1 as my current one is ver 1.4. Not the best hardware to get the fullest experience out of this console but it's good enough for me. Ain't gonna splurge $$ on a new TV set even if I have the $$ right now.

No. The last message from them was on 14th Novermber saying that my name will on the waiting list first and once they have confirmed, they will send a notification in 3-5 working days. This is work day 3. Let's wait till Friday.

Still ok la 4K 30fps on RT. Even RTX3080 also struggle to run 4K 60fps for Crysis Remaster
*
Then HDMI version 1.4 cable and port is good enough. For next gen I expect baseline is 4k@60
But I guess, as you said, maybe just ok enough.

At what time you placed your order in GG?
Their pre-order closed 12.07PM as per their post in FB with the timestamp.
I placed mine 12PM sharp but still no text from them.
Not sure how they are finalising their list. Hope it's being done properly.

I was there today, enquired about PS5, the person just smiled and said not stock, PO fully subscribed... hmm  hmm.gif

Yesterday I called Sony The Curve. The person said not accepting any more orders. She only added me into the waiting list which, according to her already had 350 + over people. I just gave my particulars and yeah, I'm not expecting much from this.

Now some more 120hz support, I don’t know how many games can output that or how many ppl got TV to utilise that. sweat.gif

I will be happy enough with 4K and 60fps where available.

Yeah me too. I'm just sticking with my 4k 60Hz TV even if I've the money to spend. It's Good enough.

You guys already clear out the space to put your PS5? The provided HDMI cable is the normal length of 1.5meter only.
*
I bought a 3 meter hdmi 2.1 cable.
I am thinking if I should I put it vertically on my subwoofer which is sitting on the floor or just leave it on the TV cabinet.
Anyway getting the console soon is just wishful thinking. I wasn't successful in all the POs. My name is just in the waiting list of Sony Curve. I am not having high hopes.

And if people let say offer your ps5 unit for a higher price 2599 or even 3599

Yes I know. That’s a lot of money

But don’t sell it to them

Cuz they gonna resell it for a higher price

So don’t buy from scalpers

And most importantly

Don’t sell to scalpers.
*
Heck, I'll not buy even if it's sold at a rm200 premium. Yes,
stock is scarce now but it won't be like this forever. If it means waiting till next quarter, then be it!
