Got my pre order in for the DE yesterday at Best Buy. Very excited. The only slight disappointment was that the PS+ Collection they showed off yesterday has maybe 2 games I don't already own.

I tweeted Insomniac this morning about whether PS4 owners get a free upgrade to the remastered version of Spider-Man and have yet to hear back but if the conversation in this article is legit it doesn’t look like it will be. And it won’t even be available separate.

Final Fantasy XVI isn't coming to PC after all after they said it was.

I don't think that's right? Sounds like it's exclusive to PS5 for 6 months, when it goes to PC, and then another 6 months after that before it goes to Xbox.


edit: maybe not, I thought I read that earlier but there's an update saying Square Enix won't confirm anything about other platforms.

One of biggest surprises from last night’s PlayStation 5 showcase was that Final Fantasy 16 is on the way. While the initial reveal trailer confirmed it was coming to PC, however, it has since replaced with one that does not mention PC. The new trailer now ends with the PS5 graphic, and that’s it.

We reached out to Square Enix for comment, and to clarify if Final Fantasy 16 would be coming to PC. We got the following line: “We have no further information on if Final Fantasy XVI will be released on platforms other than the PS5”.

I guess that can mean it's coming out later. I hope so.

So US Amazon PS5 pre-orders are getting delays notices. Hope that doesn't happen up here.

I caved and also preordered Demon's Souls. Just want a sweet next-gen exclusive on launch day.

Up to a cool grand now. Video game purchases are cut off for the rest of the year lol.

No conversation about XBox pre-orders this morning?

Been a bit of a gong show as websites don't seem to be able to handle the traffic.

Sony gets flak for the "Random" pre-order time but in some ways I prefer that. Setting a specific date and time lets all the bots and site scrappers get set up to have an advantage.

Had a bunch of meetings but I had no problems myself. Seeing chaos online though with them announcing their launch, flooded with bots, ironic.

only site that had issues was Microsoft's site and I assume it was due to people trying to get the monthly finance deal there not knowing its exclusive to EB Games and not coming out until sometime before launch. All other sites have tons of stock.

I'm still waiting for a second batch of PS5 pre-orders. Hopefully something drops. I tried to get the digital, not knowing how few were available, and was out of luck multiple times. Just going to order the standard edition now (if it becomes available for pre-order again).
