    I have had a Playstation since the very first in 1995 with PS1 and Sony always makes a great machine. The Playstation 5 is no exception. It does feel like a next gen experience with 4k graphics and 3D sound. The new dual sense controller with its haptic feedback is also next level with its responsiveness and vibrations. If you can find one pick one up ASAP.

    Best system ever made by humans. Now when they tell you this thing is fast they are selling it short I would say this system is so fast you feel as through your are going back in time when you play PS4 games. It clocks faster than anything I have ever used and way higher fidelity graphics it's on par with the 5,000 dollar gaming rigs and half the size. New PS5 Games load in just 20-30 seconds if that and you are jumped right into the save nearly as fast. The new controller features are impressive the adaptive triggers are the crowing jewel on the controller on complaint is the touchpad is very close tot he square button so it's easy to miss hit on old PS4 games and pause the game making you crazy. I would suggest just buying one and waiting till they redesign to fix this to grab the second. I would only get the Disk version if your an old veteran like me you will find ps4 games laying around and pop em in and see if they have done an upgrade regardless it's awesome to play would suggest this system to any gaming enthuses. The liquid metal cooled processor has this thing running like an ice cube. The only complaint is when the fans do kick out it sounds just like an F-27 raptor taking off if that's your thing cool but's it's a little loud for me I know first would problems.

    ABSOLUTE KING!!! Going from PS4 to PS5 is unbelievable! Ps5 is in another league. Purchase the Xbox X too and I have to say I lean more to the Ps5 but that’s my preference other will love Xbox. The dual sense control is incredible just really don’t have nothing to complain besides the storage of Sony could add more would phenomenal

    Great machine. It's fast, great looking and the controller feels awesome. I was worried about it not being much of an upgrade, but it does look better and it boots up exponentially quicker. Demon Souls is awesome on this, but I mainly play a last gen golf game (PS4 2K21) and the difference is shocking.

    Well, i wanted the disc version to watch our movie collection on disc, but they were sold out when I got there. I was surprised this was even available. Been trying for the past couple years. For the little time ive gotten to play, it seems pretty cool.

    The PS5's new UI is smooth. The DualSense Controller is great. Overall, the console runs very smoothly and I have not experienced any sort of loudness with it. I do recommend when playing games, to choose performance over the resolution. Would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience next gen even though we've just merely begun to play those games.

    The PS5 is a genuine leap forward for console gaming, offering gorgeous 4K performance, stunningly fast load times and a truly game-changing controller that makes playing games more immersive and tactile than ever. It plays nearly all PS4 games, and, in many cases, allows them to run and load better than ever before.

    An absolute powerhouse of a gaming machine as far as content, usability, technical and performance specs and the controller... wow, *chefs kiss*. I'm a lifelong gamer and have had just about every console and handheld since the NES. This feels to me like the most cutting edge gaming machine and I'm excited to experience the PS5 as it matures.

    Performance vs price is awesome. I have a pc with a rtx 3080 and let me tell you this piece of equipment is almost up to par. You definitely cannot build a PC at the same price with the same performance. storage space is way limited, so I would go with a disc version instead. I mostly have ps4 titles , and i store those in an external ssd with no problem.

    It's not like you have many options if you want to play next gen games on your TV. The haptic feedback in the controller could be great if games take advantage of it. The SSD makes load times impressive. There's no 3D audio for games yet unlike the Xbox which is silly. It also doesn't support Dolby Vision for 4K blurays, but hopefully they patch that in.

    Yes, you have to work to get one of these puppies. But if you want a real next gen experience with great actual NEXT GEN games, you can't go any other way. I've played through Demon's Souls 4 times, and now I'm having a blast in Ratchet & Clank. My only real complaints are few. First, did it have to be SO big? Second, the storage is not sufficient.
