First post gold...

The response is even better LOL

 

[kittens]

With the headphone jack on the DS4, how will we adjust volume? I play on a monitor without volume settings.

 

[Haunted Tank]

Will the controller come precharged?

 

[Wynnebeck]

With sadness in my heart, I must relinquish my PS4 pre-order due to monetary issues. I tried justifying buying it, but it would be an extremely irresponsible purchase for me. So I'm going to extend the hand of friendship to a lucky gaffer. Since this is a console I pre-ordered back in July, you can be sure this is a Launch Day PS4, no more, no less. I got it on Amazon so I can go into the order and direct it towards your residence. Be warned however, that doing so WILL cause the PS4 to arrive past the launch date. However, if you are someone who missed out on the original orders, waiting a few days later isn't going to hurt. I'm taking the best offers from now until tomorrow evening to ensure the shipping address gets updated in time for you. Go!

Will the controller come precharged?

The standalone controllers do. I'm also pretty sure I saw the controller turn on in the IGN unboxing video.

 

[Kerrinck]

Probably been asked before but any word on stock issues?
Will have to cancel my amazon pre order since my flight to America got delayed till the 27th so just wondering what my odds are of grabbing one at a store.

Hahaha wario

 

[-PXG-]

Will the controller come precharged?

The stand alone ones do. I was able to connect it via bluetooth on my PC and use it immediately. No charging required.

A female 2.5mm to male 3.5mm should do the trick. They are on Amazon for about $2.50 shipped.

It's ghetto and mammy made as hell, but go for it

 

[Hoo-doo]

Man, all this stuff coming from the review event has sent my hype into overdrive.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Has anyone else's Amazon NFS order shipped?

 

[kittens]

Yup, I saw that, too.

 

[Relix]

So READY

 

[Anticitizen One]

Love the OP. Hate the thread title.

It should have been:

No it should not have been. Thats stupid just like calling xbox one "xbone" is stupid.

 

[SwiftDeath]

I bought a controller early

They come out of the box charged and raring to go

 

[Subxero]

Has anyone else's Amazon NFS order shipped?

Nope still seems to be determined. It was my free game from the b1g1 mailer. So while i would like to get it by Friday i'm not too worried.

Amazon did ship my copies of Battlefield and Black Flag today.

What the hell?

Everyone pulling that bullshit gets instantly ignored. You should do the same.

I talked to two reps today about the game. First time they told me that I would get it in December. Then the most recent one,as of an hour or so ago, said it would ship out next week.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

What the hell?

Lol

 

[Darklor01]

Has anyone else's Amazon NFS order shipped?

Not an Amazon order, but GameStop just texted me about it. Tomorrow, my other game texts should come.

 

[BlastProcessing]

Definitely getting Killzone and BF4. Can't decide between NBA 2K14 and Need for Speed as my 3rd game. Both are franchises that I haven't played in years so I am torn.

Thoughts?

 

[Garrett 2U]

Oh man, hypeeeee
Pretty jealous of everyone who has next gen starting on Friday

 

[Wynnebeck]

What the hell?

Or maybe people's cards get charged on the 13th when they ship and I want to avoid that? Might want to get your facts straight before spouting shit bruh.

 

[Boke1879]

I don't know if this is the place to post this, but doesn't the Playstation app come out for android/iphone tomorrow?

 

[Ripclawe]

Best Buy said I could't use my card to pay off my preorder till that day which is weird.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Not an Amazon order, but GameStop just texted me about it. Tomorrow, my other game texts should come.

I will have to talk to Amazon CS about this if I don't see a change by tomorrow.

KZ should be here tomorrow and BF4 should be here Thursday.

I might just cancel NFS and go for 2K here.

 

[Vizzeh]

 

[Dead Prince]

part of the plan. you can just go around 9:30/10pm. there's a processing period. after that you can stay or come back to pick up your ps4 at midnight

I wish Amazon would get the vertical stand

Judging by the sections he bolded in your quote, I think he's mostly calling you out on claiming that you "want to extend a hand of friendship," but are taking "best offers" (i.e. hunting for a profit). If you genuinely wanted to do someone a favor, then sell it to a gaffer at cost: first come, first serve.

 

[Thundercleese]

I still don't have an estimated delivery for 2k14. I preordered it yesterday morning.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Haha that's awesome

 

[Dead Prince]

don't forget the official playstation app is launching on the 13th for android and iOS for NA.

Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much. Amazon is really good about getting you your stuff when it is needed. Maybe consider contacting a CS rep. They might be helpful. As long as it is in your hands by launch, that's what counts,.. Right?

 

[-PXG-]

I downloaded the apk for the EU one. It's pretty snappy. Too bad it really can't do much, at least yet.

 

[Dubz]

Just picked up KZSF and BF4 from my local Gamestop. Tomorrow I pick up AC4, and then I wait...and wait.........and wait. Amazon better not fuck me, and come at like 8M. I am so excited!

 

[Dead Prince]

i think they probably will update that or remote and put out a new one.

but anyways. does anyone know if sony plans to increase the cloud storage again? we need more.

 

[Square Triangle]

What's the general feelings on CoD, BF4 and KZ? I want a FPS but don't know which one performs the best. I've paid each series and don't really have a preference.

I could Google for reviews but I believe GAF!

Exactly. It's getting close though so I hope to have all 3 games by Friday.

Why is that a bad thing? Times are tough. I need money. I have a product that is highly desirable. Instead of canceling it outright and denying someone a pre-order, for cost plus a little extra, it can be yours. No need for the Moral Police to come in and try to shame me for wanting money.

Where did you get that from? Xda?

Contact customer service. They may be able to help

If you want SP, then go Killzone, but if you want MP I would go with BF4. Both games will be graphically awesome, whereas COD looks pretty current gen.

Put it on ebay just be careful. The most I've seen them go for is 6 something on there. If nobody wants it keep it. If you're in north jersey I know of a great part time job where I work. Thats how im paying mines off.

 

[HammerOfThor]

So are there any split screen launch games(aside from the DC fighting game)? Or a game I can play on my Vita and TV with another player?

Knack. Marvel Lego.

Edit: not split screen actually but local coop.

Is there an origin to this or just a GAF thing?

i think NFS oh read it again. you want second controller and split screen.

 

[jaaz]

Hype level at critical level. How will I make it to Friday? Must buy more red wine. Malbec will do.
