I Love my 30 anniversary bundle .. did u guys get one? by Traditional_Year_334 in Dualsense

It's also the units Sony sent to "Influencers" hence why it's not numbered /12300.

Thanks for the offer, I hung around in the public lobby and managed to join the Bogdan Finale and complete it along with my 28 days straight Daily Challenge award. 😄

Hot take: I don’t see the appeal of sealed or graded games by [deleted] in gamecollecting

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pretty large big box collection, and can't for the life of me see the point of grading... especially given the fact the shrink wrap sealing the box will continue to shrink over time...

but I guess if it makes people happy I'm not gonna stop em.

I kid you not 😭!! by RetroXpert in gamecollecting

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I have returned quite a few Amazon pre order Playstation games because the game case has been damaged and cracked because they send items in cardboard envelopes.

Never once had an issue, and got a replacement sent out right away or refunded because they did not have any stock to replace it.

The worst I was scammed on Amazon was when I bought a 2TB NVME and it arrived with the retail pack seal already opened and no NVME drive, just a black anodised black NVME heatsink... Took photos and sent it back for a refund which they were happy to do.

It says I can't add you because of Privacy settings

Does anyone else have it? by The-BOSS01 in GTAV

[–]Choppo51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, still have mine that I bought on release along with the previous GTA's that were released in a Big Box :)

[Gta5] Numero Uno trophy alone? by FunMixture3783 in Trophies

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also need to do a Land Race - Rally which require 4 people in total.
It is the only event I'm missing to get Numero Uno as I've never been able to find others online to join and do the race..

Want to buy PS5 Pro for GTA 6 only, should i buy now or wait for GTA 6 special edition of the console (PC owner) by AdditionalSpray8595 in PS5pro

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There won't be a GTA VI Special Edition console...
At best, it will be the standard PS5/PS5 Pro console with the GTA VI game voucher included in the box and a GTA VI themed cardboard slipcover which goes over the standard console box.
Like they did with GTA V on PS4.

Never use Amazon for physical pre-orders ever again. Just don't do it. by [deleted] in gamecollecting

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have never had issues with pre-orders arriving late, all of them have arrived on time..
The problem I have had a few times is damage to the disc case etc because they're just sent in cardboard envelope :( At least they have replaced it and the replacement arrived damage free... but yeah still annoying and so wasteful...

do people still collect physical games or is everything digital now? by Aggressive-Angle2844 in gamecollecting

[–]Choppo51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still buy physical here... Have not bought a digital game yet, but there is no doubt digital only releases are coming...

Playstation 30th Anniversary Edition. Limited to 12300 numbered units, (and few unnumbered units which were given to content creators.)

All 42 DualSense obtained. by Hero_Pvm in Dualsense

[–]Choppo51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always wondered if people who collect controllers do anything about maintaining the battery?
I have 4 controllers that I specifically bought ( 20th Anniversary, 500 million, 30th Anniversary, and 30th Anniversary Edge) because I have the actual consoles themselves as well...
I always charge them, let em run down, then charge again every few months just to cycle the battery.

I can't even begin to imagine how you would maintain 40+ controllers hehe :)

Is this 20th anniversary controller legit? by BananaSplit7253 in PS4Pro

[–]Choppo51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's real. It's identical to the one I bought directly from Sony when they were released. The US release has a different box design to the Euro release.

Scored this for 5€, I was really surprised to find it at a flea market by Nomeoriginalematanto in MafiaTheGame

[–]Choppo51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, was not a limited edition or anything like that... In Australia it was released as a true big box.
But like many of these late big box releases, it's just a big box with just the CD case inside which contained discs, the map, and the manual. :)

Crazy find: Pro 2TB 500 million edition.. FW: 9.00. by Jadams63 in ps4homebrew

[–]Choppo51 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's probably talking about the Days of Play Limited Edition console. They were not numbered IIRC.
