    Solid console and a beast for the price. PlayStation 5 also has some great exclusives that make this console a must have for any PlayStation fan.

    The PS5 is truly a great product but with its strengths come it’s weaknesses. As of now the PS5 has good launch games but the graphics are not very different from the PS4 or PS4 Pro. It also has many bugs with certain games which will cause a “blue screen” as you all are familiar with. With that said the load times are extremely fast and the future games it has to offer make it well worth the money.

    Digital is great but disc is better. I’d go for the disc version any day over this. But it’s nice it plays all the same games and doesn’t compromise performance.

    Lightning-fast load times is what made me want the PS5! I can switch games so fast I can finally play through my backlog a little bit easier.

    You don't need a disc drive save yourself the money & clutter from disc. The future is digital so I recommend going digital. For $399 so worth it!

    Best gaming system I’ve owned. I’ve had every PlayStation and this has been my favorite so far. Graphics are amazing the load times in games are basically gone.

    Had the console for less than a month before I started getting green screen crashes. While playing PS5 games both from the SSD included, as well as from game discs, the PS5 would flash a bright green solid color across, then screen then power down entirely, refusing to turn back on by any method other than unplugging the console and pressing the power button on the front plate. My attempts to get a replacement were unsuccessful, Sony seems incapable of producing a fraction of supply required to meet demand even when cutting corners an using less than quality components. Due to this lack of supply of course getting an exchange was impossible, it's really very unacceptable in my opinion, the quality of the controller is amazing, the adaptive triggers nothing short of ingenious. And yet the console itself felt cheaply made. I know Sony has a bit of a reputation for changing hardware manufacturers mid-cycle during console lifetimes. Perhaps I got the one in one thousand that'd be bricked, and that's not so bad but the overall lack of supply feels almost intentional at this point. Overall my experience with the console and the company was poor. I can't say 'Well it was fun while it lasted' on a 500$ console that barely survived 5 days before the crashes began. No amount of fun had in the short time makes up for the moments of frustration experienced, or the annoyance. Bad form Sony. Bad form.

    Digital or disc. It doesn’t matter. The ps5 is the greatest console in the history of video games. Get whatever you can get. It’s worth the hype.
