My understanding is they push the envelope on technology with cutting edge components, and try to launch close to Christmas while at the same time balancing availability of components from suppliers. They can only commit to so many machines being produced in the given time thus creating a shortage. They should be readily available after the first of the year. I'm thankful for pre orders even though they are difficult to score. I sat in line for the Xbox 360 for 12+ hours.My question is why does Sony and Microsoft only allow so many preorders? Seriously just allow everyone who wants to, to preorder and when it is manufactured, you're notified and you can go pick it up/wait for it to show up on your doorstep. This would be similar to car manufacturing on a newly released vehicle just like the Bronco.
I'm not aware of anyone being able to get all-access. Total clusterfuckI couldn't even find it on Amazon. I was trying to get an all access pass. Seems like they are all gone now. Oh well, I didn't NEED to spend that money
I was going to do this because I pay for game pass and this is like $35 less a year but I knew it would be impossible. How can you pre-order and sign up for credit before it sells out? It was still available on Microsoft’s website not that long ago but I wasn’t chancing missing out on an Xbox by trying that first.I'm not aware of anyone being able to get all-access.

Yeah, but also Horizon II and Demon's Souls remake. You forgot them!!! I bought a PS4 exclusively for Bloodborne (huge Dark Souls fan I admit) and I played the hell out of that game! Ended up using the PS4 for gaming and using XBone for media. Bloodborne, God of War, Horizon: Zero Dawn, The Last of Us I & II are really good reasons for having a Playstation. Depending on what the ZeniMax and Microsoft deal ends up being, I might want to pick up a new XBox Series X, but nothing on XBox's lineup is driving me to a purchase. I couldn't get a pre-order in for PS5 so its the waiting game again. Bronco and PS5 are testing my ability to wait for things! haha!Same. I like the controller, layout, online and what Xbox offers (Atmos/Dolby vision/4K HD player (Xbox One) more than playstation.
I don’t care for 90% of the Sony exclusives because I’m not from Asia and I’d rather poke my eyes out with a hot iron than play final fantasy, Pokémon and or the myriad of other RPGs. But I always buy a PS because I can’t not play Spider-Man, god of war, ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, Last of us, Twister Metal etc.
Reservations have been a shit show! I’m still shocked I somehow got 3 pre-orders in, persistence I guess! I tried Horizon, it didn’t do anything for me tbh. I rented it to try it and I just couldn’t get into the gameplay. I had a problem with the last of us too, I enjoyed uncharted a lot more from naughty dog and they are some of my favorite games of all time. To be fair though TLOU and Horizon were both phenomenal games. The last of us is REALLY good, it’s just really slow and REALLY hard sometimes so it gets frustrating. I still haven’t finished the first one because my PS4 is a bit wonky, I actually haven’t finished the new GOW either. I have never played demons souls, I watched videos and I just wasn’t sold it was my type of game. I think they’re adding it to PSN plus so if so I’ll give it a shot at that point.Yeah, but also Horizon II and Demon's Souls remake. You forgot them!!!
