The price people are paying for just the pre order receipts on eBay is ridiculous.mit really is tempting to sell mine but I'm resisting ATM.

Do it mate. Well worth waiting an extra few weeks for that sort of cash

COD Ghosts is native 1080p on PS4, upscaled from 720p on the Xbone.

Think I'm gonna blitz through Shadow Fall and then pick this up. PS4 maps... can't wait

I wish I could see any difference! I'm being greedy, I really want both.

It really is tempting but I've been counting Dow the days to launch I wish I'd pre ordered a couple now

[RICH1977]

Launch day for the ps4 is looking a bit pants now as there are no stand out next gen launch titles games bundles are purely made up of blu rays more than games.

Think I might just get the solus for now and sell it Christmas week

[tropix]

I just got an email from Amazon saying that as an existing pre-order customer, I could pre-order the Killzone bundle instead - £15 saving. I was already way down the line so I've done it. You get an extra controller too

Looks like I'm in the minority and opted for the Xbox One.
God knows when I will get it though?, as I've only just ordered it from Game. They guarantee delivery for Christmas apparently.

Game doesn't appear to be offering the kill zone bundle

[RICH1977]

Tell a lie just checked they are but are doing it on a first come first served basis

The Xbox One is coming out here a week before the PS4 so that explains it I suppose.

I pre-ordered from Shopto and I think it will be my last time unless they have a decent offer their delivery is fantastic but their prices have risen significantly. For instance I have Killzone and the PS4 bundled which costs me £400 which is a saving a fiver from getting the game separate but that is only because they raised the game price by a fiver as soon as the bundle was announced.I could of got the game from amazon and the console on it's own for the same price,

It's my fault for ordering from them in February and never switching but still lesson learned!

[Tutts]

I had a email today saying my Xbox One has been dispatched.

[tropix]

Ebay were doing day one delivery Killzone bundles for 394.99 earlier. Might have all gone by now though

[puds1970]

Edit.

[GandalfTheRed]

I have been swayed to get the XBOX One simply due to Ryse. So if anyone who has one on preoder and doesnt want it, I will gladly take it off your hands haha.

[StuC]

I was going with ps4 but the lack of 3d bluray playback has put me off, it would mean having to keep the ps3 setup as well as the ps4 and I just don't have the space or connections on the tv to be able to do that

[GandalfTheRed]

Does anyone know if stores will have stock available on release which isn't taken up by pre-orders? Doing it the traditional way of standing outside a shop for 5 hours?

[tropix]

Unlikely mate. I worked at HMV for a number of years and any new console stock was usually booked up for a week or two. There might be one or two less obvious shops (toys r us etc.) that have more stock than pre-orders, but you'd have to get lucky

Your best bet will be John Lewis who I believe do not allow pre-orders

[Heisenberg]

Got a phone call last week saying my Xbox One is in the shop ready for me, also got lucky and got the Day one edition Shame I've got a ten hour shift on friday!

[tomasj]

Haven't followed the latest hardware news on these two. I wonder what Steam's offering will be like.

Just built a new nVidia/Intel-based system, so I think I am all good when it comes to a gaming rig.

Yeah I shipped an email to John Lewis asking them if they would have some instore. Plus you get a 2 year warranty with them.
