Any tentative time of the day based on previous drops? Anyways to set an alert?
ya the time is random one. i used distill web monitor since it can check every 5 seconds but your browser must be active all the time if you are using the free version. set up email alerts if you will be away from your pc

if there is drop on the day, probably will go in and out of stock a few times. since some orders might get cancelled if they order before or they decided not to buy, so keep a lookout

Final Fantasy VII Remake (Intermission Episode - Yuffie DLC) is 2 chapters long which is approximately 7 to 8 hours (including side content) and if playing on Hard Mode, then + another 3 or 4 hours, so 10 to 12 hours overall. Estimated Price of DLC: USD 20 = SGD $26.

I changed my approach from collecting physical disc to purely online. Initially, I thought that disc will help me to save some disc space, but PS5 copies everything on the disc plus patches from online. So no space saved (The last PS that I played was PS3, so I totally skipped PS4).

In term of ownership, Physical was attractive in the beginning but with current restrictive situation and less availability of second hand games, I just go straight digital. It is instant and if timed well, can be much cheaper than physical. I ended getting two PS5, for myself and the kids. With online, I don't have to keep shifting the disc over, and we can play the same game together from each console.

I still got both disc edition, so as and when there is a good deal on disc, I can still play them. Just sharing what I plan. I also got "burned" buying incorrect region disc which DLC can't be played without suitable redemption in new PSN account for that region.

I also kinda regret buying disc version but at worst, will use it as an expensive blu Ray player for my small blu ray collection

Not true for multiple console owners. 1 ps5 can set as primary and another person within the same household can play tgt. Buy 1 copy of the game instead of two. If buy disc can only play on one ps5.

Thanks for sharing. Guess I should have get both digital ps5. My thoughts of collecting physical game is I always like to own physical stuff rather than digital. So for my Nintendo switch I also have this habit.

Haha I see. For me I need 2, so can play coop with my friends if they come over etc.
This is true. But since now covid, I just enjoy different rooms different settings.

For me, I setup two ps5 with two Nintendo switch for two of my rooms. Another two more rooms with PCs and another room with ps4 pro. Kind like every room with a game/blu-ray/entertainment room.

Here is a data point.

1) I bought Assasin Creed's Vahalla - Limited edition at $73 from Shopee. The lowest price that I can get. During days of plays sale that ended just a couple days ago. The gold edition is just $79 and contains more DLC, etc. The standard edition was below $60

2) I bought Spiderman Miles Morales at $63 from Shopee. I learnt a lesson that this US version will play just fine but can't redeem the pre-order DLC with Singapore PSN. I can't also upgrade to top-up and get ultimate version (the remastered spiderman). During the days of play sale, the ultimate version is much cheaper.

The only good deals that I can get is those pre-owned PS4 disc games, may be in the future pre-owned PS5 games. For now, seems the physical disc prices (even with discounted in Sony store or shopee), can't beat digital price.

I bought Yakuza Legendary Hero Pack and Ghost of Tsushima around $50 each. Seems bundled game with all DLC would be cheaper in digital than buying base + DLCs.

So funny see some questions here ask wat time of day and which date. No one works for Sony here and if u want the PS5 go and make the effort to refresh the browser or go to a store and put ur name, as simple as that.
