    If you enjoy the spectacle or thought of space exploration, buy this game now! If space is not your thing, stay away. The visuals are amazing. Yes, there are times when there is nothing going on and you have it in cruise control. But out of nowhere you drop out of cruise and arrive at a pulsar. Breathtaking. Game requires internet connection whether you are playing in multi or single player.

    Absolutely love this game. I love how it doesn't hold you by the hand and lets you explore it on your own. Great graphics allow you to really get lost in the galaxy and do whatever you want to. It has a good balance between simulator and action.

    If you bought No Man's Sky, then you should get Elite: Dangerous because this game is everything that game was SUPPOSED to be and more. From mining, smuggling, trading and bounty hunting to exploration, faction backing and all out war in space, Elite: Dangerous is an immersive, hobbyist lifestyle and is much more than just a game!

    Not much of a sim gamer, but this game really interested me and I decided to pick up along with a PS4 HOTAS flight stick to go along with it. The game certainly throws a lot at you and it takes awhile to grasp everything the game offers, but I will it's a lot of fun and if you can play with the HOTAS stick its pretty immersive. Lots of content to keep you busy and it looks pretty nice on PS4 Pro.

    This is a hardcore space sim with a very serious learning curve nott an action game. Be prepared to put in the time to learn how this game works, if you do you will be rewarded with a fantastic experience.

    This game is wonderful! The vastness is insane, traveling to the deepest reaches of space with other players whether they be enemies or allies. The ships are amazing as well. You can buy a multiples giving you many options such as being a cargo delivery service, combative, or even just a traveler. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.

    Worst PS4 game ever.

    If you thought no mans sky sucked, this game takes the crown. After months of waiting for the port to the PS4 i got it and boy was I disappointed. The controls are a pain, some of the tutorials were glitched, there's absolutely no descriptions on how to play, how to select missions, do upgrades, all you get are very brief tutorials on the controls and besides that you're thrown out to the lions. Don't waste your money.

    Absolutely love this game, the controls take a little getting used to but anyone could figure them out after a bit. I would recommend this to everyone who is willing to learn a little bit and anyone who enjoys space. Great game. 10/10 See you out there commanders! o7

    Since "Star Citizen" is still in beta and slated for PC at first. "Elite Dangerous" is the best thing on consoles and is fantastic! You can't go wrong!
