I had one in my cart from Amazon and when I selected my shipping address it said there was a problem. The Bots are hot today.

I've been F5ing Amazon all day at the top of every hour and the one time I didn't...

Not that I would've been successful, but still.

Walmart et al need to take notes from companies in the sneaker game to fight the bots. Just let people order it, then have a raffle that lets you know if you won it and are being charged.
why they let you add it to your cart, that pull it away from you is mind-boggling. Why not do it like concert tickets. It's in your cart, you have 5 min to complete the transation.

Same. Apparently, the last time I bought from Wal-Mart was for Christmas, and I had it shipped elsewhere. I should have just submitted the order and fixed the address later. Lesson learned.

Bots would eat the entire quantity in a few seconds that way. They can lock down the consoles without the pages even loading by sending the commands to the pages.

My Amazon pre order now says it was shipped and arriving tomorrow by 10pm...

It said the 19th, this morning. Guess Amazon is pushing some through quicker.

It was treating me like I had no saved address in my account and made me fill in the shipping address info. Then just looped that page before it finally accepted the inputs.

Yeah, so when Nike/Jordan release a new shoe, you go on the app and order it. Put in your payment info and shipping address, they confirm that you're in with an email, but they don't charge you unless you get picked by whatever raffle computer program they're running. So about 30 minutes after the release, you receive an email that says "You go it" with shipping info, or an email saying you missed it and confirming that you won't be charged.

It's a gamble of course, and one I'd only do with a reputable site I'd be willing to do business with, but something someone like Playstation proper could easily do, and then let the bots fight it out over on BestBuy.com or something. Even B&H could do something like this, but truth is they don't care. The sneaker heads were ready to go to war over it though, so a lot of those companies listened and it's been fun to play.

Currently downloading games. They didn't make it very easy to tell if you're downloading the ps5 or ps4 version of the game.

They are all PS4 games, but most with PS5 enhancements if you are playing on that.

Last time I bought a pair of Jordans I put them on lay away at Footlocker.

No. I have two sets of Sony golds (I like redundancy/backup) and I read they are compatible.

Have heard nothing about the new pulse.

Has anyone on here actually gotten a confirmed order from Walmart today? I'm convince they only had a few units.
