    Was able to buy it (luckily) and playing games on it is great, but with few must-have exclusives out it's okay if you want to wait!

    PS5 is a great system but buying it through Best Buy was the best option. It was super easy and gave everyone a fair chance.

    A non biased review.

    Before I go on my rant, I own PS5 Disk, Xbox Series S and X, and a gaming computer. I am not taking sides, just going to give an honest review of a normal gamer. Upon the announcement I wanted the PS5 and the Xbox series X out of the gate, the PS5 looks amazing, the controller is pretty cool at first, and some of the games are a must have. But I am going to review the console with the non exclusive games. At first, the announcement of the internal SSD size of 825 GB instead of 1TB like the competition was a head scratcher, but looking at history of playstation, the storage can be added, now it is a year after release and you can add a m.2 SSD gen 4 IF you are on the beta program... Xbox had the ability day one, that SSD for 1tb costs about the same as the xbox one too. After installing 3 ps5 games and 4 ps4 games I ran out of storage on the console... "Impossible" I thought, this is almost 1 TB and I installed like 3 games at 100 gb each and a few less than that, looking at the ACTUAL AVAILABLE STORAGE there is 650GB almost HALF of the competition. There is a 60 some GB buffer for updates that can't be used, and the ps5 OS takes up a whopping 115 GB, my xbox has 960 GB available out of the box. This means everyone needs to uninstall and reinstall their games all the time to be able to switch between a common sized game library. Lets look at the controller now, playing the given game Astro World, its a tech demo to show off what the controller can do, its fun for that game only, and you turn off the features in actual games because it drains the battery and its a gimmick not everyone wants. Now lets talk about physical size... this thing is almost as tall as my gaming desktop, which means carrying this anywhere is going to require a suitcase, not a back pack like the xbox series x can fit into or a pocket like the series S can fit into... so if you are a stay at home gamer who has no friends who like to play in LAN mode or just in the same room to trash talk and have fun... then this might be for you? then the icing on the cake is the removable panels, the white looks clean, but have you seen the red and black controllers? Playstation is releasing a black headset too, and they are suing all companies making black or other colored side panels... c'mon playstation... don't stoop so low, if you want to come out with special edition panels I will buy them, but getting upset with other companies for coming out with black panels upon release just isnt cool because you didn't think about it first. All in all the gameplay is almost the same as a pc or the xbox series x but is missing a lot of next gen features that the xbox included (quick resume) if you are so much of a playstation fan that this doesn't bug you, fine, but so far all the play station fans I've lent my xbox to are now selling the PS5 and got themselves a series X. Cost to performance the PS5 falls very short, cost for Actual storage, the PS5 falls short, if you want to take this with you to a friends or on a trip, this is not the right console for you. If you like a controller to turn your trigger finger into the receiving end of a telegraph machine in the few games its supported, this is for you. I am hoping for a next gen for this console already with a 1TB SSD and a OS that is UNDER 50GB until then, this console is collecting dust while my xbox is coming with me everywhere and is my go to console.
