    PlayStation Continues to Surprise

    PlayStation has continued to set the standard with the gaming consoles. They continue to make quality products that last for years. The PlayStation 5 is no exception, the graphics, processor, and speeds are amazing. I also really like the new haptics found on the controller. The backwards compatibility is something we have all been hoping for since the PS3 and finally Sony has delivered. Also, another surprise was the ability to take my external HDD from my PS4 and plug it into the PS5 and was able to pick up right where I left off with all the games ready to play. And if you want to play PS4 games, you can still use your PS4 controller on your PS5 (when playing PS4 titles). Overall, more than impressed.

    So far I have no problema with this console. Download speed is so much faster than the ps4. Tge console makes litle to no noise. The only problem is that with 4 games install the memory is almost full.

    Smooth running system, fast loading time and great graphics with no problems at all with this product. The controller is very ergonomic and the adaptive triggers are very adaptive for COD. Best console yet!

    Despite the cat and mouse game needed to play to get your hands on a PS5 as of writing this review, I couldn’t be more excited for what the future holds in gaming. The Dualsense controller really makes the whole experience next-Gen. The adaptive triggers are crazy immersive and playing Mile Morales was incredible. Comparative to the PS4 the PS5 is dead silent. I could go on about all the cool new features and how great the system is. But honestly, you need to try it for yourself. Highly recommend if you are looking for a new console, just be patient.

    It's nice to have the option for a cheaper PS5 that makes no compromises, except that it doesn't have a disc drive. A good, fast system with a unique controller that has advanced haptic and rumble features.

    Fast load times and a great controllers. Exclusives like Mile Morales and Ratchet and Clank are great. Makes previous gen games like Ghost of Tsushima or TLOU 2 run buttery smooth at 60fps.

    It is hard to write a review for the next playstation due to various reasons. Just like previous consoles chances are you're going to buy it eventually, if you had the PS4. Another reason is that most of your digital games are going to transfer over anyway. The best thing about it is the new controller which is fantastic, however not every game is going to take the full advantage of it, at least not this early in the new generation. Astro Bot (free pack in game)uses it very well and gives you a glimpse of how great it can be. In the end it is really up to you, in the current economic climate buying a luxury item might be the last thing on the list. If you have the means and can actually find one, get it.

    It may be a slightly iterative upgrade from PS4, but it nails everything it sets out to do. The controller and the crazy fast loading are fantastic.

    Lives up to the hype and more. This machine is so powerful. The controller is so cool. The haptic feedback and tension triggers are a game changer. If you are on the fence get off and pick one up.

    Awesome graphics and it loads games super fast. Buying experience a little frustrating as it would not accept my Best Buy credit card. Had to use another card for purchase to go through. Go figure.
