UK Supermarket Asda Now Taking Pre-orders for PS4

If you're dying to get your hands on the PS4 and haven't yet secured a pre-order, you'll be pleased to know that UK supermarket Asda is now also taking pre-orders from customers eager to be among the first to get the PS4.

While it might seem a little premature to pre-order the PS4 (afterall, we have yet to actually see the console itself), GameStop in the United States reckons that there won't be enough supply at launch to meet demand. Speaking during an earnings call, the retailer said 900,000 people have signed up for its 'First to Know' PS4 list. GameStop says that this is usually a pretty good indicator of preorders. The company said that while it had no word from Sony on the matter, it believes 'demand will far outpace the supply of this product during the launch window.'

Asda is selling pre-orders for £20-a-piece. Head here to secure yours.

    If this posts actually works... for the love of GOD... remove this new blog-text entry software. Its like comparing Win8 to WinXP. The OLD one was far more functional and easier to use and COMPATIBLE with browsers. YOu know, things like quoting, pages, etc.

    I've almost preordered PS4 from amazon.co.uk for bloody £599.99, but luckily found it with discount at zavvi.com for only £379.99. Savings of £220!!! I've used the code ZV16127166 when opening a new account and that's it!
