Greetings,
1-Anyone has an idea if we'll be getting PS4 in december ? at Virgin megastore or Sony world.
2-Back when the Xbox360 was first available in lebanon i bought the white 20GB. 8 months later the console was dead GPU failure/overheating (Yes tried and spent money on repair to no avail...long story) and happened to some other friends also.
So the thing is i'm afraid that this will happen with the new Gen consoles - their 1st generation..one would think Sony and Microsoft learned about their mistakes. But no one knows.
We're all excited about the goodies in those consoles. I'm sure some problems will show up after release,hopefully they are not fatal errors.
Would appreciate any opinion on this.
EDIT: Wish there was like a quality control thing for these stuff, like a test center where the console gets tested to the limits before release over an EXTENDED time. i guess sony and microsoft maybe do these stuff but not in "guaranty" quality.
Any of you guys know someone that is going to get PS4 on release date from the outside and get it over here to Leb. i would happily pay extra like 600$.

1) Sony world said December 13 or something like that.
2) We don't know if they will have an failures like you said, but its safe to buy the 2nd gen consoles if your worried that something will happen. Also guaranty will be for 1 year so I'm sure the release will be good.
I may buy it from Sony world on Christmas with any good sale.

Ya I just saw his listing on elmazad, he even took a picture with it. If anyone asks him about the proce, please let us know in a reply to this thread

I was watching the disasembling of the ps4, the main board is so simply and cleanly designed I doubt there would be any heat failures, guess the only problem that could happen is a defective components?

Najjar is selling it at 800 USD

Sonyworld lebanon just announced on their facebook page, that they will receive the PS4 before Christmas in december.
Its a bundle that has 1 extra controller and a killzone game.

I'll hold on to my PS3 for a while.

it's kinda close to the 400$'s official price
this sony "official" is kinda useless

I'll actually wait till PS4 slim. which maybe will take 1 year after release.
Then maybe at that time i'll be able to get it with me from the US.

Nino Store said that at his Facebook page:
"PS4 500GB + 1 month PSN Plus 800$.
Best deal is PS4 + 2 Games of your choice + 2 DualShock 4's 1000$."
The funny thing is that he's saying "Best Deal". This is seriously BS.
He also said that it's price is gonna drop after a month, but I doubt that it's price will be below 700$. -_-

It baffles me that you guys are surprised that the PS4 is being sold for that much money. Are you new here?
vegetaleb
Yeah it's very expensive because it's pre-orders.
Anyway never buy a gaming console the first 6 months,not only because price can fall but because hardware faults can only appear after 1-2 months.
Remember ring of death of the xbox360 first months?

why not ship the consoles from amazon, should cost an extra 100 ish to get it here.
Sony world won't say price but they have a very limited quantity that they are not selling yet due to some problem they do not state

Wait! Who said Sony World has PS4 stock? And if they really do, i think the reason why they are not selling yet is first because it hasnt officially released in the Arab States (December 13th) and/or PS+ being a requirement to play online and Lebanon isnt supported on the PlayStation Store.

I am actually surprised that it's only $720. That's cheap for me. I understand the rest of the world gets it for $400 or whatever, but this is Lebanon, not the rest of the world. I was expecting some bullshit like $1200. Fortunately, I was born into the PC master race, so I won't be buying it ever. But if I was into consoles, I would already have one. $720? That's a steal for Lebanon.
Ahmad90
Correct me if I'm wrong, if Lebanon isn't supported by the psn, I don't think we can play online anymore, can we? Ever since sony annouced that it'll start charging for online gaming.
50$ per year and 9$ per month.
And by the way, the charging only stands for the ps4, not the whole psn, from what I've read. So you can still play online on the ps3. That's a huge reason for me to hold on to my ps3.

You just open an account from the usa or uae and buy your psn cards and play online.
My main ps3 account is a US account and I've been a psn+ member for 2 years.

hey guys, I pre-ordered the PS4 from Sony World for USD 729 and expect to receive it on 15 December
because i need to have the warranty (especially when you hear that there are bricked versions)
and moreover i calculated that
500 (normal Price for 1 controller virgin)
80 (controller)
80 Game Kill zone
70 TVA and Lebanese warranty (not international warranty that you can never claim)
So it ends up approximately same as getting it from outside (along with some benefits and Lebanese Sellers Greed)
Note: It is not worth getting it from any third party that cant provide you with an effective warranty
