Embargo likely to lift around June 23. Reservations likely to open around June 30.

I’ve had a reservation in place for the controller since May 11 lol.

Amazing. I assume they aren’t really serving the queue at all so they have controllers to ship with the machines.

I think you’re probably right. Pretty lame as I know sone people have receives their controllers already. Must have been those who ordered in the first five minutes :(

If you want one sign up before June 25. Looks like theyre randomizing the sign-up order prior to that and after the 25th you just go to the back of the line.

Kinda sad the discount with the controller isn’t greater.

I’m getting one but damn if that isnt a crying shame.

The deck really was a great deal pre current prices and no we get…this?

Sounds like valve had a lot of trouble sourcing components in quantity.

I wonder how many units they even have made of the machine?

I mean at this point the other consoles are just proprietary PCs too with additional lockdown right?


Is there anything on Xbox that’s not on PC anymore?

Is there anything on Ps5 that's not on PC anymore?

Legit question. Everything I see on sale on the ps5 store is in the steam store. Usually a exclusive game comes to ps5 during release but eventually it makes it's way to steam.

I copy/pasted this complete list for you. The only game on this list that I own is Demon's Souls. It was worth getting a PS5 for. I have no interest in owning any of the other games on this list.

GT7 and Demons Souls are pretty great at least.

It's a pretty sad list of exclusives. At the time the article I pulled these lists from was published, none of these following titles had been released yet.

In the time since publication, Ghost of Yotei has come out and is still PS5 exclusive.

Death Stranding 2 and Marathon have both come out and are also available on PC.

Wolverine is still forthcoming.

All are gay and I would never play them. I had some hope for Wolverine until I saw the footage. Hard pass.
