If you live in the UK and you did not pre-order a PS4, you still have a chance of picking one up when it launches there this Friday: Asda, the UK supermarket chain, has announced that it will have extra inventory of the console that it will be selling to consumers who go to one of 155 select locations, on a first come, first serve basis.
The stock includes the normal £349 machine, plus the Knack bundle (£379) and the Call of Duty Ghosts pack (£385). So, basically, if you want to avoid a shit game, your best bet is probably just to buy the core console SKU and then to buy a game to go with it.
