StaceyPowers Posted February 26, 2021 Posted February 26, 2021 With PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles still really hard to get, has anyone here had any luck in obtaining one? If so, what unit did you get, and where/how/when did you buy it?
Kane99 Posted February 26, 2021 Posted February 26, 2021 Nope, but that's ok, as I haven't attempted to buy either new console yet. I tend to wait a year or more before I purchase a new console, as well I'm by no means flush with cash, so it's easier said than done. But soon I hope. I'm in no rush.
Patrik Posted February 26, 2021 Posted February 26, 2021 Not yet, even some Youtubers are still finding difficulties in getting them, thanks to Scalpers :)
m76 Posted February 26, 2021 Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I don't but I'd not have bought one yet even if it was available. I usually buy consoles years into their lifecycle when there are at least a few good games to pick up. But with Sony moving towards releasing more and more titles on PC, I'm not even sure I'll buy a PS5. As for XBOX I don't need it, there is nothing and never was any title on that platform that would even remotely warrant the investment. Edited February 26, 2021 by m76 Withywarlock 1
killamch89 Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 I don't currently have one but even if I did want to get one (and I do), the current shortage and scalping prices put me off from buying it.
Syntax Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 My friend does but with the limited space on the drive I’d rather wait for the second gen and a better (and cheaper) swap to do so I don’t have to move games around or redownload them all of the time StaceyPowers 1

Because it is going to be pretty powerful and I heard it has 1 TB of space as well. However, can 1 TB of space suffice most modern games?

But, they likely will do a pro console around then. But 1TB of space isn't enough for these new gen consoles. I think at this point they need to be 2TB at least. Games aren't getting any smaller. Especially with how one Call of Duty game can reach over 500GBs alone. That storage is nothing.

There is a lady on Facebook called Angela Nwosu, she got one for her husband too.
