Ambitious PlayStation Direct Restock Has Fans Fuming With the Queue – “I’m F*** Pissed!”
Follow Us
Even after 1.5 years, it’s almost impossible to get your hands on PlayStation 5. Be it the scrappers or the chip shortage issues, Sony Interactive Entertainment is facing some genuine issues when it comes to PlayStation 5 stocks. Basically, the gap between demand and the units is too high, creating chaos in the market. However, fortunately, Sony has been offering more PlayStation 5 in 2022 as compared to the previous year.
But as expected, even regular restocks have a long queue system, making fans a bit frustrated with all the waiting. With this, the most recent ambitious PlayStation Direct restock was far from a smooth experience for the majority of PlayStation fans out there.

It’s actually sad!

Waiting room is more than an hour wait?

A bunch of lucky gamers rejoiced as they were finally able to get their console. Hopefully, Sony continues to bring more consoles to the market. After all, Xbox X has been in stock in Walmart for 0ver a week now. This is pretty much usual, considering how it used to get sold out within a few minutes, or even seconds, for that matter.
