    Love the system, the haptic controller is by far my favorite aspect of the PS5. It adds a new immersion that we have not seen in gaming yet as well as the trigger pressure. Can't wait for more games to come out for the system. Overall Sony has not disappointed.

    PS5 is hands down the best device ever created. I love the software on this one b/c I can easily change music while playing a game. Graphics are next level when used with an UHD TV. Highly recommend getting this whether you're a kid or an adult.

    As one of the lucky few to get one of these, it's worth the wait for those who didn't get one on day one. Keep your F5 fingers moving and you'll eventually get one. I really don't need to write more, as the news regarding this console is dominating all platforms.

    If I can only own 1 platform, I’d choose the PS5

    This is so far my favorite platform to game on, and I own a PC with RTX 3090, an Xbox Series X and a Nintendo Switch. Pros: 1. It costs $500. I haven’t tried to build a $500 gaming PC but I doubt you can have nearly have as much power as the PS5 even if you manage to tighten that budget. And it wouldn’t be fun to find PC parts given only a $500 budget. 2. It has a large library of exclusives. Ghost of Tsushima, Bloodborne, Demon’s Souls, The Last of Us series, Uncharted series, Spider-Man, God of War, The Last Guardian, Infamous series, Gravity Rush Series, the complete Yakuza series, Persona 5/Royal, the list goes on. You won’t find them anywhere else all conveniently gathered on one platform. 3. It is powerful. The gap to PC is smaller than ever. The PC fanboys can no longer gloat about their SSD or 4K60. Cons: You’ll sink so much time on it that you need to reconsider your priorities.

    My son has been playing with his ps5 since he got it after his birthday. Wanted to get it as a Christmas gift no luck. Then his birthday I was able to order it a couple days after his birthday so it was a late gift but he was happy. The graphics are amazing.

    I have been able to score both the ps5 and the Series X. I have not had a PlayStation since the ps2 and was thinking it was time to get another Sony. I am very impressed with the Ps5. The look and feel of the software and the controllers are unmatched.

    Great Console with Minor Setback

    Big improvement over the PS4 and would easily be a 5/5 star review if the streaming quality wasn't so awful. Before you blame my internet, I'm hardwired to my router and I get 500mb down and 25mb upload which is more than efficient to stream 720p and 1080p. PS5 streaming doesn' allow and adjusting or modifying the bitrate at which you stream, resulting in a poor image quality. Everything else is fantastic. Controller feels great, UI looks great. I've recently been playing Returnal and it's just wonderful. Hope anyone who manages to snag this console enjoys it. Have a good day!

    'Next Generation' is definitely here with this powerful machine. Performance and Audio/Video output is phenomenal. Absolutely love what Sony's done with the PS5; everything about it has been an incredible experience! It was definitely worth the ridiculous hassle.

    A very fine product. PlayStation has absolutely outdone themselves with this. Best Buy had a very convenient setup when it came to buying the PS5 in app. Pick-up was even better. The frame rates, ray tracing, everything with the PlayStation was just awesome.

    The PS5 is great!!!! Love everything about it from the controller to the system itself to how the games look and feel. Definitely worth the wait and stress to pick it up. Now only thing is more games have to come out for it, but so far it is great.

    Don't support low life scum scalpers. It is worth the wait to get it here and support our local businesses. This is one of the best PlayStations ever even though I'm not a huge fan of the new space-age design. The redesigned controllers feel great!

    Great console but so much bigger than my Series X, it didn't fit under my TV! Controller is awesome but only if it gets supported in the future from developers.

    If you’re a gamer then there is no question on getting this system. Several PS4 games come with free PS5 updates and the library is starting to pick up for new games. Nothing earth shattering but everything is improved upon from last Gen

    Great product, well thought out and engineered the controller truly feels next gen and the user interface is fast and snappy, not like the previous gen. The console suffered a few bugs and glitches, but it was expected for us early adopters. Highly recommend it.

    This is the best console by far! Loading times and the graphics are phenomenal. I only wish everyone that wants one could get one. Scalpers need to be fined and punished for what they do to people...especially for the kids that want one and can't get one

    Finally got a hold of one and this system doesn't disappoint. I have a high end PC build but got this for all the Sony exclusives which is well worth it! Got some NVME drives to increase the storage. The remote play is really cool as well.

    UI has a drastic change. Takes getting used to but at least it looks nice. It do be sounding like it's about to take off sometimes. The dual sense gimmick is nice but not necessary for FPS like COD multiplayer. Received a nice upgrade for my GoT and BL3 though

    Great system and right now the best system for gaming over the Xbox series X primarily for the exclusives it sports as well as the new DualShock controller it immerses you in the game like never before whole devs actually continue to use and expand on its uses
