    Game Stop Website Down: PlayStation 5 Early Pre Orders to Blame?

    Mary Anne ButlerBy Updated:No Comments

    So….today was the Sony PlayStation 5 Showcase, and it went pretty well. So well in fact that online retailers WalMart and Game Stop opened their pre orders for the PS5 a day early. Subsequently, the Game Stop website is currently completely down.

    Other retailers also opened their pre orders shortly after users reported managing to order their units via WalMart, so if you were lucky enough to get in on Best Buy, Target, or another retailer- good for you.

    Still no word on when Amazon’s sale will go live.

    None of IGN’s links to where you could theoretically pick up a system are working, so. Best of luck.

    What Game Stop’s website looks like right now-
