Does anyone here actually have one of these? I would get one but I do not care enough to actually try to snipe one whenever they get posted online

I have both
>inb4 what do you play on it
stay mad
cringe
So did you guys luck out? or did you beg for scraps from these companies and track every online storefront?
For me, PS5 I used Newegg Shuffle for a Bundle with Demon Souls and Controller
XSX, got lucky with Walmart when Halo Bundle pre-order launched and managed to snag a regular one
The place where i got mine allows pre-pre-orders. You register your interest and then when pre-orders come available you get that slot.
Nope. Live in beanerland and there's tons of them available. No series x consoles though.
Latinos love xbox, makes sense
Sign up for twitter notifications of restocks. Literally the easiest way to get one
wario64 and ign deals just spam constant lego sets and stupid stuff like that
Use the tech radar guy he only does PS5 and Xbox. Or you can use websites like hotstock or nowinstock. Twitter notifications are fastest though
whats his @?

Back around Christmas time Walmart was doing scheduled drops. I got lucky and Walmarts site didn’t crash on me and I was actually able to check out
Took like a month for them to actually send me the console though
I just followed this account and bought it from target
I also have both, though I'll probably sell the PS5 since I never fricking use it.
HotStock alerts. Got both consoles and a 3090 from it
Have had a PS5 since launch
Only next game I've played on it is Astrobot that came with it, and R&C.
Platinumed both, meanwhile I platinumed GoW when they patched it with 4k res and shit.
Apart fromthat, a bunch of couch games with mates when they are over.
Such as Overcooked and shit
>Why not more next gen titles
I play them on my 4,5k pc
Own a ps5.
Word of advice:
Get the series x. I plan on getting one.
I have a PS5
I’m playing Lost Judgment on it right now
Both, but I ended up using my XSX more due to BC and old XBLA, while my PS5 is literally collecting dust after N Souless
I don't want one should be switched to I'm a poor third worlder
Have the PS5. Currently not using it much. If nothing good comes out in the next year or so I will probably sell it.
I have both. I use the series x and I'm trying to scalp the PS5 on eBay(I didn't open it) but it's not selling for some reason. It was actually pretty easy to get I just followed the tech radar guy on Twitter and enabled notifications so whenever he posted about restocks I tried to get them. Got both in about a week and a half with like 2-3 attempts per console. It's really not that hard once you get restock notifications
These companies should be bending over backwards to make it easy and desirable for me to buy the console, not the other way around.
How is signing up for notifications difficult? If you don't like twitter there are websites like hotstock or nowinstock that work the same way you provide your email address and sign up for notifications of specific products. It's not work you get notifications to your phone when something comes in stock. If you want the shot that's hard to get it's a super easy way to get them
thoughts on the ses? should i get it if i have a 1080p tv or should i get sex for extra storage and disc drive
Try to get the sex, however the ses is much easier to find. I see them all the time at local stores. However the ses storage runs out very quickly, even on my sex I can fill up 1TB easily with Gamepass and BC games
i dont play alot of diffrent games, i only want to get it for the yearly cods, new halo and the new forza
SeS has about 300GB I think. Which Forza, Halo and CoD would take 300GB. Unless you play one at a time then sure.
might get the ses, the sex is literally more than double the price
It's still a good choice if you end up managing storage
It's a great little machine that's unbeatable in value vs performance.
I have a Series S and X.
They work in unison in both my living room and office.
Highly recomended, especially with Game Pass.
i have xbox. mainly because my pc is on the way out and it's cheaper but plays all the same games
Yep I got a Series X. My PC had just died and I was a bit done with PC gaming. I have a new PC now so I play it less, but for AAA third person games, Xbox on a nice TV is king. It's just comfy. I will also play Halo on it, it just doesn't feel right otherwise.
While I really like PC gaming, I love the hassle free experience of consoles. I don't have time for hardware/software shenanigans
>I don't have time for hardware/software shenanigans
Yep, this is me.
Got a Series X because I'm tired of the PC maintenance.
Best console for people that are coming from PC for sure.
It's strong enough to rival some great cards and the ML stuff might prove really useful in the future.
I have both. Used the hotstock app and walmart app to snag them both over the summer.
I have a ps5, mostly use it to play ps4 games in pro mode since I never bothered to get one. Also played ratchet and des remake. And deathloop.
Its not really worth it unless you're playing lots of ps4 games. Genuinely, there isn't that much PS5 only content to justify it, (yet?) So meh. The scalping especially. Just get a separate pa4 and hack it if you're paranoid about that sort of stuff.
I really like my XSX, it's a handsome little thing. I don't care much for graphics but I love how fast things load and how smooth things play.
I'll probably get an Xbox. Never played Halo before. The PS5 I would consider once a slim version comes out with good games like Socom or Warhawk.
I have a SeX on the way that has been in shipping hell for about 2 weeks now. Finally the expected delivery is this Friday. I have an xbone already and don't really need the SeX but I expect prices to get even worse as the years closes out and I want 60 FPS MHW and decent loading times for everything else ASAP.
Almost got a PS5 instead but then realized I don't care about capeshit and that I only really used my PS4 for MGSV, Battlefront 2 multiplayer with my buddies, Spiderman and now Death Stranding. Nothing else on it really interests me and the no back comp is kind of a fricking drag. Oh I guess I wouldn't mind ghost of sushi at some point but I have too much other shit already.
PS5 is backwards compatible with the PS4 though
I guess I meant with my PS3 shit. I have a big physical PS3 collection that I unfortunately can only play on my PS3 whereas Xbox has a decent list of back comp at this point with maybe more on the way (rumor)
But the games are played in "PS4 Pro" mode, there is no enhancements, no Auto-HDR, no quick resume. It might as well be a glorified PS4 Pro. I guess it makes more sense if you skipped PS4 but I assume very few people did.
I have an Xbox Series X which replaced my OG Xbox One. Got it at MSRP online from Best Buy, apparently super lucky as I just happened to check stock during a drop.
At MSRP the hardware itself is WELL worth the price, though I still prefer my modest 1070-powered PC for most games.
I use GamePass to try out games I'm interested in, and if I absolutely love them I end up buying them on PC, recent example: Outer Wilds. But honestly I mostly use it for Netflix/Hulu/HBO.
There isnt a single game on them that's worth playing. At least the Series X can play Ninja Gaiden black though, it is by far the better system.
Xbox. Was worth it.
I have the triple decker PS4.
I pre-ordered my SeX from the Microsoft store.
>Noooooo don't pre-order, what if they have problems
Looks who's laughing now, nerds
I ordered a ps5 with the Black spider-man game and death stranding, I actually wanted it to replay ghost of tsushima in 4k/60fps and I might wanna try last of us part 2. I sold my One X a while ago because there's just no point considering it has no exclusive games and because I play everything else on pc
