    PS5 miracle

    I purchased for my son after I miraculously was able to do so online in late December 2020. He says the graphics are much better and he is very pleased. Best Buy was great, but the whole PS5 roll out has been excruciating to participate in even when we were able to get one. I feel really bad for the tons of people out there that still cannot purchase. Not sure what Sony was/is thinking. I did find that Best Buy had the best way for a non bot to purchase, so recommend trying through them. If you or your child is a gamer- you gotta get one- eventually.

    The PS5 is still difficult to get nearly 6 months after its release. Not many great exclusives at the moment and there are still bugs to work at in general. It will amplify the graphics on your previous generation's games and many games will get a free PS5 version upgrade. If you can get your hands on this, get it but i wouldn't recommend paying over retail for it.

    So much faster and quieter than the ps4. Hopefully they come out with an external hard drive for it to save more games. That's my only complaint

    My PlayStation 5 Review

    The PlayStation 5 is great! It has amazing graphics, and I love the backwards compatibility. The only complaint about the PlayStation 5 that I have thus far is that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare stopped working on the PlayStation 5 at one point as it stayed stuck on the opening screen of Warzone. However, Modern Warfare still works on the PlayStation 4 which I have, so it wasn't a total loss. Other than that, the PlayStation 5 is a pretty neat system that is both fun and amazing to look at both the console and the games.

    I was lucky enough to secure the PS5 right before Christmas. It was a nice surprise for my 10-year-old. We are in love with the graphics and download speeds. Compared to the PS4 the download speed is 4x as fast which is great. Fortnite is our number 1 game so no more glitching or waiting forever for updates. Anyone who plays knows it takes a while to load, not on the PS5...the game comes up right away. I have zero complaints besides the stress in trying to get one but once you have yours you'll feel like it was well worth it.
