At least never bundle 4 controller plus 4 games. :s13:

But even then probably will have buyers :s12:

To be honest though, would have been better if they just bundle with $100 vouchers then buy what you really want, cause I don’t even want any of the bundled stuffs.

That the whole point they don't want any of those either they use ps5 to clear those stuff.. u choose that angkongkia last of us bundle sure win po..

I did a bit of math I'd I buy ps5 with that 260 paper weight I spending scalper price to buy qisahn ps5 lol

But a little bit of comfort is I can sell that off but not the price I got that for:s13:

btw, just wondering which model is better - disc or digital? what's the diff between the two and is it worth the xtra $$$? what i can think of is that for disc version you can buy 2nd hand games etc whereas for disc version you can only get your games from the online store?

Pretty much just that.

Only difference is disc drive.

One can buy second hand games and sell, the digital only can buy from PSN store, which means more potential for Sony to earn back their losses on the console, if not disc can lend games from friends, buy second hand and sell.

If you own a bunch of PS4 games on Disc you can play on PS5 also loh...

for me is this case

The wait list so long. Maybe when PS5 readily available on the shelves, can wait for PS5 Slim or PS5 Pro liao

PS4 fat -> PS4 Slim/Pro took around 3yrs

Definitely disc drive version, hence the higher price. For me, its an easy choice & a no-brainer.

+ Better to have 2 options to play a game (PS5 disc model can play both digital & disc games). Rather than limit & restrict yourself to just 1 option (Imagine a friend lending you a PS5 game disc or give it to you as a gift. Yet you can't even play it on your PS5 DE, as it doesn't have a disc drive).

+ After completing a game or you dislike a game & regret the purchase, can sell/lend/trade away the game disc.

+ Can buy used/2nd hand game disc.

+ Faster to install data from disc to SSD. Compared to downloading a game from PSN.

+ Backwards compatibility with PS4 game disc.

+ Can play 4K Ultra HD Movie disc & Blu-Ray Movie disc.

PS5 Digital Edition, you'll end up paying more in the long term as you're locked to the price on PlayStation Store, since you can't sell away any games to recoup the losses (Though I know there's often sales/discounts on PS Store)

Perfect example is Demon's Souls. If you have PS5 Digital Edition, the only option is $97.90 on PlayStation Store, since there's no sale for it so far. If you have PS5 Disc version, you can spend much less as Demon's Souls is currently $50+/$60+ on Carousell (I bought it for $50 in Dec, only a month after release. Compare that to the price on PlayStation Store. There's no way it'll be discounted to half price after 1 month)

ah okay. thanks all for the detailed explanation! i think overall still better to get the disc version. i agree w the part abt paying more long term as you will be restricted to only buying games off the online store.

Would have been a different story, if Sony had something as good as Game Pass.

If not can just subscribe to PS Plus and just play all the free games. :s13:

Hi, for those who had pre-order in Nov from BD, have you guys receive any call from them?

So far no, they never call me yet and I made couple calls to them. ETA this month end, should be 28th Jan 2021, to align with other game shop collection date.

Edit: btw you PO from which branch?
