    Ps5 is cool!

    So far the console has been great, no problems. Looks cool and I'm really enjoying the controller with the dual sense features. Only problem is I find myself playing my xbox series x more because of gamepass and the fact that there aren't very many ps5 games out yet. Didn't want to reduce any stars because the lack of software is normal at the beginning of the generation. As a gamer you will enjoy this console because it offers gaming experiences unique to this brand. If your trying to decide between this and the xbox brand I would say the xbox brand offers more value but they both offer their own unique platform experience. Bottom line if you can afford both, get them both and you won't be disappointed!

    I finally got one and thought Best Buy had the easiest way to checkout compared to other sites where they would sell out. Ps5 is massive but it’s awesome! The 120fps is great and playing at 4K is amazing.

    Great graphics even with PS4 games and the PS5 games are awesome. Download times on the PS5 with our dsl internet are MUCH faster than the PS4 Pro we had before. Half the time to download updates for games, etc.

    Graphics are incredible. Overall lay out is great. Turning off was a mystery but figured it out quickly. The way the whole console looks is unique and futuristic. It is a must have upgrade from the ps4 for sure.

    I’ve had this console for just over 3 weeks now, and it’s all worth it. I was staying up late at night until I finally copped my PS5 from here (BB). So glad I finally got one. Everything about it is so clean

    Amazing console, worth it if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one. Hopefully it becomes more accessible later on with newer titles coming out (Spider-Man 2, GoW: Ragnarok, Wolverine)

    Fast and quiet. The DualSense controller is an unbelievable improvement when games fully utilize the haptics. I highly recommend the disc version over the digital-only, it really broadens your options.

    It is an absolute tank of a console, but with an upgrade from my PS4 Pro I love the ease is use with the new UI and the quickness of the systems overall performance. Visually it is stunning on my 2020 Vizio 4KTV

    The new generation is here larger then expected but it’s still here. My ps5 is a great console play it everyday, it’s quiet sometimes there times when it gets a lil loud but not loud enough, way more quieter than my Xbox one S. The next gen games aren’t really there yet just wait like a few months and they will be there, but the ps4 games I am playing run smooth no stuttering, when there is lag it’s prob my connection. the down speed is really good I can get like 200mps when downloading a game.

    Best Buy offered a fair process on currently the most sought after system. They were also very safe in offering curb-side pick up. It was seamless and I am enjoying my PS5 and it's incredible graphics.

    Great in Some Ways and a Let DoIt is really hard to beat the console exclusives that are only PlayStation. However, there's not too many out yet for the PS5. I've finished Demon's Souls on it, but due to the broken rest mode for the system, I ended up needing to reinstall the game early on because it got corrupted due to the system not wanting to wake up out of rest mode. However, I also had the game get corrupted when I didn't close the game (pressing Start then pressing Close Game in the Home menu) before I turned off the console. so I have ended up reinstalling the game twice due to corruption.n in Others

    This is by far the best next gen console. XBOX doesn't compare. I like that I can still use a disc for games (because real gamers like hard copies) or download them all digitally. BEST GRAPHICS

    The graphics are great and my husband really enjoys the new adaptive triggers. If you can get your hands on one, which was the most frustrating part of the whole process, it’s definitely worth the money.
