    Overall, a good console. Smooth, quiet, and makes games look great. Some occasional problems from here and there but nothing too deal breaking.

    Great price for the console - don’t be fooled! You don’t have to buy a special HDD to save games on; I was able to use my old external HDD from my last system.
