    I like the digital version! It’s so easy to downloads games! I don’t need to have the games physically and I can download every game I want anywhere as long as the internet is good.

    The PS5 is a bit complicated for me. I’ve never been much of a PlayStation gamer but when the PS4 came out (edit: When Spider-Man PS4 came out) I knew I had to get one for the exclusives I’ve never played. Incredible games that I missed like Last of Us, God of War, Horizon, etc. were a breath of fresh air. I knew I had to get a PS5 for the same reason again because of Spider-Man Miles Morales. Then I saw that miles was going on PS4 as well. That was a huge turn off for me and then I’m seeing that the next horizon and god of war are also going to stay on PS4 as well. Honestly, what was the reason of me buying a PS5 if I could’ve played all the other games on PS4? I just feel like until the ps5 gets REAL next gen exclusives it’s just a PS4 PRO with an SSD.

    PlayStation digital edition console was a great purchase! There is no disc driver and you can only download digital games, but there is plenty of storage for all your games!

    Love it! Really enjoying the PS5. Biggest improvements over the PS4 are the controller and how quiet the system is. Can barely hear it when the room is silent.

    Love this console. Loved the way the Harrisburg store allowed you to wait inline and hand out tickets. That’s the only reason I have this item and I’m grateful

    Great new console, I have enjoyed it very much, ps5 games are fun and PS4 games run better, great control with great triggers and rumble, the stand is a little fragile

    It's a PS5, and the games and controller are great. I was hoping that this console would be quieter than my ps4 and tbh it is and also isn't. There is a constant humming when a game is on. I'm not sure if it is fan noise or coil whine. Either way, sony needs to be better at that. I do have both an Xbox Series X and a PS5. If you are a casual gamer I would suggest the Xbox. I use my xbox for every game except for the sony exclusives. Game Pass is such a good deal and Microsoft has really made some good features like quick resume and FPS boost for the new consoles. consider that if you don't care a lot about the exclusives.

    The graphics this oversized beast are stunning. The new interface is easy to use. So far, all of my PS4 games have played on it. Looking forward to many years of gaming with this.

    We're not yet at next gen graphics, but the star of the show is the controller, and the instant loading. A big knock is the limited hard drive space. This will get full very quickly.

    The PS5 overall is an impressive piece of technology. The price for the performance is definitely worth it. Noticeable difference in performance from PS4. Good luck getting one lol.

    It frankly blows my mind the visual quality this console can put out even when being able to process ray-traced graphics in games when I consider the amount of horsepower my gaming PC requires to do the same thing. And the controller is incredible. When you play games that take advantage of the DualSense's abilities, it's incredible. I just wish more people could enjoy the experience.

    Excellent upgrade, I'm so glad I was able to one! Good luck everyone! The 4k, super smooth FPS is very noticable, and even PS4 games are remarkably better performing and looking.
