I got a place on the 512GB with Controller list, and got an email a few days after they started. I ordered it on Friday the 3rd and got it today on Thursday the 9th. The tracking codes were all over the place and gave different estimates depending which branch of each company I used. Steam claimed it was shipped when the courier said they hadn’t got it so I was worried for a few days. But this morning Royal Mail (UK customer) sent me an email saying it would arrive today, while GLS said it would arrive tomorrow.

Safe to say I’m happy to have it now and be playing games!

      Sony can afford to discount on the promise of online sales and planned cost reduction. I’m not sure Microsoft are going to manage another Xbox.

        Well… no.

        Thats… Sony and MSFT raised prices on all of their hardware too, same with Nintendo.

        We’re at the point where being a huge player… can only get you priority in the queue for chips and parts.

        It can no longer secure bulk pricing discounts.

        That’s how bad this is.
