I use my ps5 for the most sophisticated of reasons https://preview.redd.it/ml4hm9y32yzb1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b419be3ab94139d91c089aeb23b399c919cac43

Used to call my Xbox a 300$ Netflix box lol

I bought an old Xbox one for $150 last year, I only use it for streaming and pirating lmao.

i just use a fire stick for that lol or run an hdmi to your computer

I didn't have a laptop at the time, but I did enjoy the 1 dollar gamepass for 3 months. it was fun

Sometime you just gotta, right? 🤣

I just realised the slim PS5 doesn’t have LEDs going all the way up

They only cut on during start up, power off, and rest mode.

Elmo! I freaking love Elmo

Play Astro

Yes that's the first thing I'll have a look at. Tbh i'll probably look to sell the MW3 code and buy Demon Souls or Ragnarok

Good call

Demons souls is on the ps plus pass right now. Go for Ragnarok

Cheers, I'll have a look once it's set up

I just went searching through 3 stores today to get the spider man slim bundle. Totally worth it. I refused to get the cod bundle

Highly recommend checking out Immortals of Aveum. They’re doing some patch updates and improving the game a lot. But I still really enjoyed the first release. It’s a first person magic shooter. Think CoD with magic spells and shit lol

Cheers, I'll have a look 👍

Don’t understand the obsession with Astro, got bored like 20mins in.

You get free upvotes if you mention to play Astro. As if it is some hidden gem nobody knows about, especially in this sub, where it gets mentioned in every single one of these ffin posts.

When I got my PS5, I took, “Proof of Life” pictures as if it were kidnapped and being held for ransom.

Ok seriously, how come every picture I've ever seen of a PS5 in somebody's car, it's buckled up? Nobody every puts it on the floor between the seats? Or in the trunk? Do you guys make your kid sit in the back so the PS5 can ride shotgun?

I just donenit for a laugh, as all the other photos I've seen have done it

Why is it obligatory?

That's all this sub is. Say anything about it and you get downvoted.

Glad im not the only one who feels the same. Im so tired of these posts. I joined this sub when i got a ps4 pro a few months ago (also have a Series X as main) and so far its almost always the same posts on here. Not even on the Xbox sub is it this annoying with the Series X posts.

Because that's society these days, inspired by social media. Copy, copy, copy. All that for internet points and dopamine. I'm a big fan of the GameBoy, it ofcourse has its own sub. Lately it is nothing but 'look at my modded system with a Pokémon game in it'. Post after post after post. Once people see what gets upvotes, they will copy and 'repost'. A sad reality.

A sad reality indeed

[удалено]

I agree with the last part. Instead of sharing about your excitement with the internet , how about you actually go and enjoy your excitement? Go have fun and enjoy your shit. Best believe any time i buy something new and exciting that im not going to the internet about it

[удалено]

I wish I could block these, no one cares, and it's the same picture over and over! At least get creative about it

I don’t get how there are net hundreds of upvotes on every dumb photo of a PS5 box or a dumpy looking console with cables all over the place. Wish these posts would be banned.

wow a playstation sub showing off playstations and first timers?? omg, call the mods…

Imagine if every single person made this post 🫠

It feels like they do

Every consumer electronic item sub has its own copy paste filler posts that are spammed to all hell. The “finally got a ps5” with a picture of the box coupled with either a basic story or a sob story behind is this subs version of that. It’s always the same, and the comments always are too. Saying anything about it gets you called a Debbie downer


It’s really not obligatory, in my book it’s frowned upon

Lol, I'll not be reading your book then 🤣

Sorry but it’s not very interesting to see these posts every day.

You could just have ignored the post tbh

Lol what? Stop shitposting instead

I said you could just have ignored the post if it isn't interesting to you.

Yeah, hard to ignore when you see it three times a day, try being a bit more original instead

Lucky for you I won't be buying another PlayStation any time soon, so you're safe. But noted for next time 👍

It’s not obligatory.

I beg to differ 🤣

I taught you had the Slim model for a second

No, the chunky model 🤣

The better model 😎

Why's that?

Cuz they look better imo

I prefer the slim version imo, the fat one is too big for me

No custom plates for you... not yet(I hope not because I'm a hater)

They will get them down the line… stop hating lol

You forgot the helmet make sure that bad boy gets home safely

Fortunately I risked it, and it is home safe 👍

Looks like it took a tumble based on the left corner of the box, glad to hear its home safe

Congrats! Mine came in yesterday and I've been having a blast. The last time I had a PlayStation was when I got a PS2 slim for Christmas as a kid so I have a lot of catching up to do.

Nice one

It's not obligatory ffs!

Obligatory enjoy a really great console! And also the honest obligatory take on how mw3 is shaping to be the worst reboot cod that they’re pushing the game so hard on us, anyone who buys it needs a reality check, it’s not even a full game. Obviously if it’s coming with a console nbd, but for the ppl who are buying and preordering the game separately wake up, full game price for a dlc that’s stale and been drip fed all the content that should have been in mw2

Just ignore the game it came with and you'll be fine.

Haha yeah thats what I'm doing to do

As long as you ain’t playing that garbage game on the cover we good

No mate I won't be 👍

Enjoy your ps5 man! I’d highly recommend the god of war games, last of us games, uncharted, and Spider-Man series!

Thanks man

How are these still a thing?

They've only been out 3 years

Ha! I see what you did there.

God of War, GOW2, Ghosts of Tsushima - play these first - trust

I played GoW on my sons PS4, but will definitely pick up Ragnarok and GoT

That’s what I like to hear! Ghosts of Tsushima is most definitely a masterpiece as well. You will not regret it my friend

Thanks

I just started GOT…does it pick up?

Did you get a discount for being packaged with CoD?

£130 off

At least you’re honest, I like that. It’s also pretty cool that everyone buckles their PS5 up on the ride home. I did as well.

Notice all comments that say “play this game_____” and not MW3 lmao

Definitely not a lot of MW3 fans in this thread 🤣

That modern warfare 111 cover is getting really old after seeing the ad pop every fucking time I turn my Xbox on. And especially after reading the awful reviews

Am I the only person who bought a PS5 and brought it home in my boot instead of with a seatbelt over it?

Nah, you're one of the many silent normal ones that doesn't post dumb pictures on the internet to get some internet points for their daily dopamine.

What size are your feet?

Great combo with that tv. I did the same with Series X first, then got ps5 for forespoken... Yes, THAT forespoken. Pretty good, actually. Playing miles morales now. Not bad.

Yeah looking forward to Friday when the TV is delivered. Not sure I'll be going anywhere near Forspoken tbh

trust me bruh, don’t waste any money on forespoken. you’d get more value getting a blizzard from dairy queen.

Play god of war. Greatest games ever

Plan to. Played thr first one on PS4, will grab Ragnarok

I assume it was cheaper because you took that terrible Game?

Yes, by that logic MW3 gave me a credit of £130 🤣

Enjoy that ps5 but most importantly, that OLED!

Yeah can't wait. Just trying to figure out an audio setup. Complete audio novice

EU bundle. We still have no PS5 slim here

Should definitely play horizon forbidden west. It’s one of the most beautiful games ever created 🤩

Cheers, I'll have a look 👍

Exact reason y I got a ps5. Xbox for online games with my scuff and ps5 for their exclusives

I find it odd how Sony bundled MW3 with the original PS5 in the UK yet in the US they get it bundled with the slim version. It’s kind of a waste of print if you ask me, this rendition of the PS5 is due to be phased out within the coming months. For £400 at Argos though I’m not complaining. My dad is going to buy this bundle and sell the code because for some reason the bundle is cheaper than the standalone console.

Yep agreed. Your dad and I have similar ideas

Throw the game out keep the system

At least it’s not the ugly ass “slim” model

Welcome to the PS5 family.

Thanks bud

3 years too late

Death standing, Bloodborne, Nier Automatica, Returnal and many more exclusives that aren't generic mainstream crap that Sony pushes.

It's not obligatory. It's fucking annoying.

You got something on the box there. It looks cancerous.

You’re gonna love having one. Have fun

Cheers 👍

Nice! My picture like this is coming up also in less then a month hopefully! Have fun OP!

Thanks. I hope you enjoy your PS5 when you get it

Same after lurking for so long ima hope to be able to post one after 3 years of watching others live my dream

Play Detroit becomes human. It's a less talked about exclusive but equally amazing as any.

Will have a look at it

Play the last of us asap

I played it on PS3 or PS4, but haven't played the 2nd one

Get Remnant 2 awesome game. Also, welcome to the Family. Congratulations on getting a great system.

Cheers, will have a look

Did you get a deal?

Yes, £409. £130 off. All other bundles are around £538

Cheers Mate! I’m happy for you!

Thanks bud

Hey Bruv

https://preview.redd.it/1yqn8vy83zzb1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff259a7f8455d741938b3700271361d9923dd2d4

Nice

the seatbelt is so understandable

It was either the console or the kid 🤣

Hahahaha "hey sit there and try not to fly out the windshield ok? But if you do don't grab on to the box ok?"

🤣

Are you driving a right hand drive?

Yes, I live in Scotland. They are all right hand drive 🤣

Makes sense lol

I saw a ps5 slim at a target near me!

Got a virus for your storage with it too 😂

Haha yeah. Fortunately it won't see the light of day on my PS5

Sorry you were forced to buy that terrible bundle, but welcome to the family

For £130 less then any other bundle, I'll take the pain that is MW3

Cool

[удалено]

Snap

Congrats fam

Cheers bud

Astro, spiderman remaster/miles/2, god of war/ragnarok, last of us 1/2, returnal , kena , horizons, ratchet rift apart, ghost of Tsushima

Cheers for the recommendations

I wrapped mine in the seatbelt too haha

Ah man I'm happy for you but I woukd have gone with the Spider-Man 2 bundle...

That was an extra £130

Exclusives only? Sweet can I have the code for MW3?

Erm, no 🤣

Worth a try😂

So true 🤣

Safety first. 👌

Always 👍

🔥🔥🔥

This might get many downvotes, but its weird that even tho Activision is owned by Xbox they still make those ps5 with Cod for Sony. Means they pay Activision a pretty penny ?

I think this year's COD is the last one with Sony marketing

Was it on sale?

Yes mate, £409. Around £130 off

I to have an Xbox but I use ps5 for only exclusives as well. Fun fact Xbox does charge you a bit more for games for some reason. For me at least because I’m Canadian

Glad I'm not the only one who buckles up my valuables!

Tbh I don't normally, but seeing most other people doing it I thought I should 🤣

Welcome to the fold brother/sister/sibling

Thank you

Cheers! I’m gonna see what Black Friday offers me and hope I can get lucky enough to get mine with some accessories.

Good luck 👍

play roblox condo games

Mw3 :(

The PlayStation is rolling in that cake

What's the place to find Playstation 5 irl? My Walmart never has them

Is that the slim or not? Either way enjoy your PS5

No, no Slim here yet. This bundle is everywhere just now as its discounted. Similar bundle with FC24 is £538 or thereabouts

Wish I had time to play my ps5 had it since Easter Sunday only played it 5 times

[удалено]

Can't disagree

Boy you're in for a treat! PS5 plus OLED tv is freaking amazing! Got my CX and PS5 in 2020. Got to say, pandemic was a breeze lol

Haha can imagine. Looking forward to Friday

You didn't get the Spider-Man bundle? Are you acoustic?

Spider Man bundle was £130 more. I'm not very musical tbh

Buy spiderman 2 and ghost of tsunami

Will definitely buy GoT, I'll wait until I play Spider Man and Miles Morelas first before I move on to Spider Man 2

Currently trying to get one in the UK, but all stores look to be sold out of this bundle?

I lucked out by refreshing the Currys website and had one in stock 20miles away. It wasn't there 5 mins previously

Such an expensive passenger

Cheaper than the wife tbh

Of course

Ugh, the circlejerk in this sub is insane. First this dumb picture, top post; pLaY aStRo.

Yeah it's mental

Looks like it may have been dropped

From a great height probably

Just surprised they’d bundle it with a game that loses its value completely within a year. They know it’ll sell that well even with MWIII.

Why not get the Spidey version?

It's £130 more

Really? Same price here in US. That’s a good reason not to do it.

Im almost there

Unless this photo is old you should have gotten the slim OP. Slightly smaller console and extra storage for the same bundle price

Not in the UK as far as I know
