    Current gen console is great. Strong performance and quiet operation. I only have a 4k60 TV so maybe still not getting the best experience. Also plays almost all of my ps4 games well if not better. One small complaint is some coil whine from the controller. It might be related to the mic. But it is a minor issue and can be ignored most of the time.

    This machine is incredible. Truly next gen graphics and a smooth interface to boot. I usually don't fall for the day one hype, but I was able to get one at my store so I figured lets give it a whirl. I picked up spiderman and valhalla and boy do they look way better than the PS4 graphics. I understand these are going to be hard to come by for a bit, but lets definitely not feed scalpers and wait to get one for retail when the opportunity arises.

    Absolutely incredible! I don't know what this review could say that multiple reviews and videos have not already said, but I am happy to own this! While Best Buy itself did NOT have it arrive by release date, that is their fault and not the fault of Sony. The system itself is amazing, as is the built in game, Astro's Play Room. The controller is second to none, and it also functions as a 4k blu ray player! A must own for ALL video game fans!

    The Playstation 5 is Truly Next-Gen

    The Playstation 5 is truly next-gen. With it's ultra fast SSD, I'm able to get amazing load times on PS5 games and optimized PS4 games. The console's fan is also very quiet. The brand new Dualsense will blow you away with it's adaptive triggers and it's haptic feedback. If your looking for a PS5, Best Buy is the way to go as they don't take long for pick up and I've tried other retailers and wasn't so lucky. Overall, it's a 5/5 for me

    If you can get your hands on it, worth it. Might not be too many titles at the writing of this review but games are coming out in summer and I've barely finished trying to 100% complete spider-man. I'm fine with low title selection while others aren't so I can safely say if you're like me, this was one of my best purchases of the year. Runs smooth, gameplay smooth, graphics out of this world. This is truly next gen lads.

    Next gen gaming (although hard to get) WORTH IT

    I mean do I really need to say anything? Playstation speaks for itself as a leading gaming console. Seriously one of the best consoles you can get. I do wish the design was more streamlined (like the digital version) but I have so many PS4 games that I couldn't pass up the disc version. The new controllers are rad and haptic feedback on some games is so awesome. If you can get your hands on one of these DO IT!

    Cool console. A lot quieter than the PS4 which sometimes seemed to get loud like a jet engine. The most impressive thing is how smooth everything is when it comes to load times and stuff. Currently not many games out that take full advantage of it's speed and processing power but that will change as t he console gets older. Spider-Man looks really amazing in 4K with its ray tracing and this is just the beginning of this generation.
