50k atke pade hai 2 month se, FOMO will be so high

Anyway, waiting till tomorrow. If not delivered or some f**k up by amazon will cancel it. These guys have anyway killed my enthusiasm for series X/PS5. Hopefully the PS5 prebooking comes through in Feb.

 

Starter toh aane de. Main course ki chinta mat kar.

FOMO is high. 

I went through this same stress back in November from around 9th onwards. Had completed my order quite late on 9/22 at 9:13am so was extremely paranoid whether I even managed to stay in wave 1. Can’t fault folks who are still in the dark and freaking out. This is not what a preorder means. If one has paid upfront and in full, they are more than entitled to have their product in their hands by the promised date. This violation wouldn’t fly anywhere else, then why are console customers given this dastardly treatment?

Is Series S worth it ? I already have a ps4 right now and it can easily serve me another year with unfinished titles. So I was wondering what would be the optimal combination (once i sell my ps4) ? Series X + PS5 digital or Series S + PS5 disc ?

I saw some reddit kids claim some of the September Series X order also still not delivered, tough to believe but quite possible

No Series S, avoid and save up for Series X. PS5 Disc or Digital depends on your game library and how you want to buy things in future. If you collect game discs on PS4 and want to play them in a PS5 disc is preferred. If you have a gamer partner for game sharing then digital is worth it or you end up spending a lot more money buying digital games as it takes time fort them to go on sale..

Series X + PS5 Disc edition. No compromise and best experience. Total will be 25k more but will be worth it in long run.

Problem is its CC emi, which is costing me additional emi interest of around 1.5k

f**k woh EMI chaalu hogaya kya, I thought it starts once its shipped, how 1.5 ? Just GST portion is costing that much ? Closing those loans might be a pain and Snake can pay you monthly whatever your CC statement shows but need a very good agreement upfront..

[iamgulshan]

But Series S looks perfect for a game pass machine :/ as I have a 1080p monitor setup and I wont upgrade it (as I play in my leisure time only) so FHD 60 fps is more than enough for me. I was thinking ps5 disc + series s (so that I can buy used sony exclusives).

Then OK, wait and buy a used one.. not worth 35K.

Can get a UAE version for 30k, would that be a good choice ?

Why didn't you opt for No cost emi ?

That 1.5 is likely the interest over the tenure. Surely can’t be 1.5k additional per month.

Already paid 2 emi 

Not just gst part, there was some CC discount at the time, so around 1000 interest was cancelled out of total 2500 or so as discount.

Just a console, man. By mid 2021 or Q3, availability should be streamlined. Kuch offers bhi aa jaenge. 

 

Itna FOMO to vaccine ka nahi hai !

Are you trying to get us to be reasonable and logical? How dare you!

LoL yes. I used to wake up at 330am just to check if the magical “shipped” status was showing. 
 

By 12th it was at peak and I realised, it’s not worth being so paranoid over a console. Jab aana hoga aa jayega. ?

 

Vaccine ka FOMO isliye nahi hai because we still have a lot of educated people who believe this is all just make-believe. Many of these are affectionately also called by a word that starts with B and ends with S (6 letters)
