    I have pre ordered the game for ps4 but im confused as to how early access will work. Will they send the game out 3 days earlier or something? Dont see how this works with orders from places like amazon.

      By preordering you get the game on the 14th instead of the 17th. If your with EA Access and preorder you get it the 9th. Don't know how it will work with Amazon but probably the same way. I preordered from the PS4 Store.

      I would imagine it would ship earlier. I dont know to know honest.

      I doubt there are disc anyway. If you order from other places you probably get the dvd coverart and just a code to enter into your PS4 or XBox1.

      How come? There hasn't been a single retail release for any ps4 game without a Disc, though. Even overwatch provided a Disc. I am 100% sure TS4 will have a Disc Version as well.

      I hope so, all my other ps4 games do

      I have SO MUCH Hype with the console version, I need a new trailer or a screenshot or something RIGHT NOW, I'm going to Die of Hype

      I have a lot of Hype with the console version, I need a new trailer or a screenshot or something, I can't wait to gamescom, hopefully people who try the game at gamescom will share their experience with it, I'm going to Die of hype, Guys, tell me your thoughts about the game, i'm a little concerned about basements, because EA said that the game will include *some* of the best updates of the PC game, they talked about ghosts, pools, toddlers, etc but they didn't say nothing about basements...

      I hope so, im still waiting for them to confirm no pictures. I will be royally annoyed if you cant take a snapshot on your phone. I want to see what it looks like. Mind you its only 3 months and a bit until launch. But i doubt we will see much gameplay off it in that time.

      Does anyone know if the early access only applies to pre ordering it directly from Playstation store?

      Looking at different retail pre orders they disclude any information of early access and state it will be availible on the normal release date, whereas the Playstation store gives the early access release date.

      I'm just trying to get this game as early as possible, if this is not true and retailers also have early access, then it's possible to get it even earlier as some pre orders ship before the release. :s

      If you preorder the deluxe edition, you get it on the 14th. If you preorder, the regular edition, you get it on the 17th.

      These are the release dates from Amazon FYI.

      This is good to know! I'd rather get it physically than digitally. I'm so stoked for this since I don't have a PC so i've never played Sims 4!!!
