Damn, Sony. Been a loyal customer since PS1, all consoles and handhelds, registered them even, current PS+ subscriber since PS3 and you can't hook me up lol.

The only emails I get from Sony are the digital purchase receipts -_-
Thankfully I preordered from Media Markt.

Wow. I actually got an invite. The dilemma is if I use it or not as I've put aside $450 in amazon GCs just for a PS5.

Sony never sends me any kind of promotional content.

I never get themes/avatars for getting platinums

I never get into beta software

Not surprised I haven't received an email from them yet about the PS5 preorder and I doubt I ever will.

Hey I finally got an invite! I guess we can be buds again Sony. Already got a preorder on Amazon though. Does the PS Store charge sales tax in CA?

Ah well, next year it is then.

PSN user since PSP with a trophy score of 51 and thousands of dollars spend this gen. Not a single email.
They are lucky I already got my pre-order or I would be throwing a fit.

Once again, I'm just not fan enough. 😭😭
I think it's random or aimed at people who spend very little on PSN. They want to draw in less engaged users and not those who are already giving them everything.
I didn't get an invite for round 1. I've never bought PS+ through sony, maybe paid full price for 2 or 3 games on PSN, and just recently bought a few heavily discounted games on PS Store. My only saving grace is like >8k hours played this gen.

Sony can you do me a solid? I know that you know I'm a loyal customer and that I'm more deserving of a fast tracked PS5 preorder than most people on this planet just based on me living the Playstation lifestyle and representing the Playstation core principles 24/7. The preorder link that you were going to send to me, please send it to one of the suckers who wouldn't have gotten one otherwise so they stop their pathetic begging.

Now that this is taken care of please tell good ol' Jimbo that he still owes me a beer.

Signed,

Hmmmm...

I'm wondering if those who partook in the class action lawsuit from a few years back were blacklisted by Sony.

I used to get marketing email from them all the time. I'm opted in too.

I've been with PSN day one with the PS3. Spent way too much money on their store.

And this is the thanks I get???

... so annoyed with this entire process. Honestly think I am getting too old for this. Really annoying to waste my time trying to give someone money.... meanwhile there are plenty of scalpers that had no issue getting them.

I never get these lmao

The last time sony treated me nice was in 2006 when they put me in "gamer advisory panel" and i got a cool shirt

I have been in that, Underground, MVP too.

I did get an invite first time around. I don't spend all that much on PSN though as I tend to buy physical. PSN activity... I wish there was a cumulative total. Trophies at level 21. Not sure what else it could be soccer I have a friend who got the invite who had his ps4 for like a year and only got ps plus recently.

I also found two people at work who thought they weren't invited but when actually going through their emails found the invites from weeks ago. Better look good.

... so annoyed with this entire process. Honestly think I am getting too old for this. Really annoying to waste my time trying to give someone money.... meanwhile there are plenty of scalpers that had no issue getting them.

You know that many scalpers use software to buy these right? Just like concert tickets and limited shoes etc.
It's hard to beat that unless companies do stuff like this.

Thank you for the heads up, found the invite was in my promotions subcategory, which I rarely check, and not my primary inbox in Gmail.

Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!

Compare this to what's happening with the new Nvidia cards. This is SO MUCH better.

Saw a PlayStation email, but it was only the weekly store update email :( I guess I am not one of the lucky ones.

I wish I could give mine to someone. I already got a preorder at Best Buy. Shame they don't offer that capability.

How does Sony handle the charge? Immediately? Temp charge? At shipping?

This is my question too

Also is this still launch day delivery or is this gonna end up being part of the "not exactly at launch but shortly after" wave like some retailers are getting?

I've got one at amazon but i've got the damn "We will let you know" message vs a delivery date

They must be mad at me for not accepting all their firmware beta testing invites.
