PS5

So, I am told I won't be able to pickup a PS5 until Jan, earliest.

True that, in fact it might even be cheaper to DHL one from the US than buying it locally...

Think it worked out about a grand cheaper at the time of launch. Might even be a bit more now due to exchange rate appreciating to the dollar.
 
In the lead up to the launch there was much more interest in PS5 than Xbox. The hype only grew and even now after launch if you watch the media/youtube etc you will see much bigger hype around PS.
My theory is PS had probably more than double Xbox stock for launch, but the demand is just too high.
Seeing that again we have a clear leader I don't think PS availability will normalize very soon. maybe 3-6 months
I still think Sony have a few cards up their sleeve and in the next few years we going to see the PS5 totally dominate and probably be the best selling console ever made by the end of its lifetime.
 
Got one on takealot delivered next day

Went to vodaworld for the launch first 10 got theirs next 10 getting in 2 weeks with an extra controller free.

Game didn't have and won't have stock until next year.

I thought you had decided to get an XSX??
 
Finished Miles Morales yesterday evening. Wow! Couldn't put it down. Anyway I'm looking to sell it on, how much do you guys think is a reasonable price since this is a new market?

(I'm in Cape Town if anyone wants to take it off my hands, PM me)
 
I changed my mind. Going PS this gen


Wanted Xbox as would have used for Kodi also. These machines suck at media so won't be using for that. So decided to go PS for the exclusives.
The Xbox is a much better media consumption device than the PS5 but neither are worth having as a primary media box over an Android TV box, Apple TV, Roku, etc.
 
Telkom has the ps5 on contract if anyone is looking for finance.
Pricing doesn't look too bad.
