    The controller! Nothing else really needs to be said. Load times are fast, games look great. You either want one or you don’t. My review won’t change your mind.

    This console is truly a joy to own. Really enjoying next amenities so far. Already plenty of gorgeous, smooth games to play and load times are almost nonexistent in comparison to PS4. With extensive use so far I’ve encountered ZERO system issues. Seems to be very reliable and built to last. If I had a single critique it would be that it only comes with 500gb, but in my case this won’t become a problem for quite a while.

    Only a few minor glitches so far in my experience, most of them related to the USB drive I ported over with my PS4 games, and the others with CoD: Black Ops Old War. Graphics are great, load times so much shorter, and the new controllers are comfortable and a neat experience with the new tactile feedback in the triggers. The new UI takes some getting used to, but has some nice features. Loving mine so far!!

    The new dual sense controller is probably the coolest and most innovative feature of the system. Overall the graphics are incredible and the whole experience is very futuristic.

    Yea it was madness trying to get this at launch, but i got lucky. Really enjoying it so far. It feels very next gen. Demon's Souls remake is a visual masterpiece. Eye popping stuff. Spiderman, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank... really awesome games. The controller is now one of my favorites of all time. Surprising how good it is. The OS is awesome and seems more next gen as well. My experience has been great. No real complaints. I own all 3(xbox series x, switch, ps5)... The PS5 It's currently my favorite of all the 3 platforms. The Games. Really good stuff.

    Its incredibly quiet compared to the ps4. I've played about 2-3 hours of demons souls and am amazed I haven't heard the fan. This is great if your walls are paper thin as you can keep the volume down and still hear the game with no issues. The console itself is huge and will most like take up a big chunk out of any entertainment center. The ui is kinda meh in my opinion but am sure I'll get over it. I had one hard crash and had to unplug it completely but other than that no issues. Overall am happy with it and I have to say demons souls looks amazing.

    The load times to get in and out of games is every bit as advertised. The graphics and gameplay of the system are phenomenal for a console. The controller is comfortable and feels familiar and similar to legacy PlayStation controllers. The physical size of the system is larger than I expected it to be but that is not a bad thing as far as I am concerned. I am still getting used to plugging my controller in for updates. I have had some difficulty familiarizing myself with the Home Screen navigation but that may be user error. Overall it is a great system and worth the wait (in my opinion).

    gonna start off saying scalpers are literal scum of the earth and corporations need to do more to prevent them from artificially increasing product scarcity.. If you could get ahold of this, you know what you’re getting. UI feels next gen, new controller features are interesting but might just be a gimmick down the line.. Wasnt too crazy about the design at first, but it honestly looks breathtaking and is probably my fav looking console Anyways you probably already know you’re getting some serious hardware for the money. Gaming pc equivalent would probably be at least a grand or more.

    The PS5 is large and in charge! I'm glad my TV stand can accommodate it's 15.4" height because I'm not a huge fan of how it looks sideways. The PS5 is truly next-gen, and I've enjoyed playing the latest games like Spiderman and Ratchet and Clank after finally getting one. The new SSD destroys loading times and makes everything feel faster along with better performance in graphics as well. I'm eagerly awaiting the launch of Gran Turismo 7 next year though which has always been my biggest draw to the Playstation over the years.

    I usually own the Xbox and PlayStation, but I was always biased towards the Xbox. The PlayStation 5 changed that for me! I really like it a lot and I enjoy the new dual sense controller and the adaptive triggers! I like the ray tracing support for games and I got to try it with Spider-Man which looked really awesome! The console is lightning fast during load times and navigating menus comparing to the PS4 Pro. What disappointed me was no support for Dolby Atmos, and it seems it won’t be available in a way that we know. Otherwise the device is solid and I’m really happy with it!
