    Great console, but not worth scalper tax.

    It’s a solid console with a lot of potential, but right now there’s pretty much just Demon Souls and Spider-Man. Also, Cyberpunk runs fine on it. New controller is REALLY nice, and Astro’s Playroom does a great job showing off the new features. Runs PS4 games a little better than the PS4-Pro, but it’s nothing crazy. Can’t say much on the load times, as I’ve had an SSD in the PS4-Pro forever, but I’m sure it’d be a huge difference coming from the old HDD. Grab one if you can, but it’s definitely NOT worth paying a scalper.

    I'm coming from a PS3 so for me i totally see the difference even when playing PS4 games that have been upscaled. I got the digital version and it's perfect for my needs. No need to have discs nor do I need the 4k blue ray. The controller battery doesn't last very long but a second controller fixed that issue for me. Depends on how much you play in one setting. Lack of PS5 games might be a downer but since i didn't have the PS4 this doesn't bother me. I am playing catch up.

    Has been a fun console, and has some really cool features with the new controller. Visuals are great, and best of all it is very quiet.
