      I signed up and got the invite to buy from playstation direct last December.
      Then, roughly a month later in January, I spotted an Xbox Series X hiding in the locked case behind the electronics counter at a Meijer.
      It does not feel like it's been a year with these consoles. More like a few months. It took several months of owning them before it even started to feel real to me. LOL. Even though a couple people at work already got a PS5, one at launch and the other in the first year at least.
      I was just clickbaited out of curiosity, if there's something I don't know about the system, and/or should be concerned about.
      And/or? I have yet to watch that show.

    The vertical stand is best. I have the PS4 and PS3 vertical also. Heat rises to and escapes out the top end and back of the system. They can stand a few inches apart from each other. If they were horizontal, there would have to be shelves between them, and that takes more space and reduces air circulation.

    I didn't get a PS5, but my wife did get me my first Nintendo Switch. It's OLED Model. From everything we seen that seems like it was the best to get. I know everyone else already had a Switch, but I'm really excited about it. The last console I've had before this is the GameCube. I'm really enjoying my Switch. It's so much faster and looks way better than my GameCube. I'm finally playing BOTW. Btw the Zelda series of games are my all time favorite games. I've been wanting to play that game ever since it came out. It's so different than my favorite Zelda game OoT. It's a lot of fun so far.

    A deep drive into the PS5 UI and menues+ a deeper look at settings would be a welcome addition, since so few people show the UI and just keep physically opening up the PS5 and showing the same ports and ssd slot everyone else has already talked about.

  • @Merco81

    great recommendations, Got my PS5 around launch from sheer luck in the PS Direct queue. I second the stand and possibly a spare dual sense if you can manage it... I have not had an issue game interruption from a dead controller battery since that point. I also love the fact that Sony went the route of the NVME drive instead of a proprietary storage option, storage costs just keep getting cheaper.
    A point I'd just like to bring up. Try to get the PS App on your phone and sync up to your PS5. I have had countless moments when I was away from my house and I found a crazy deal on the PS Store, purchased it, and set the download remotely (While my PS5 was in Rest mode). Came home to see the game downloaded and waiting.
    It used to be that putting the console into rest mode 'might' cause the console to crash and force a start up... but I haven't seen that happen in almost half a year now. I think Sony patched a fix for it.

    • @EddyOver9000
      @EddyOver9000 ปีที่แล้ว

      The only problem I had with the PS5’s NVME drive port was that it has to be a pcie 4.0 drive :/ when a 3.0 drive would work really fine as well. You still can’t use any other external drive for ps5 games, so unfortunately in a way it’s somewhat proprietary. Many PCs give you the option for pcie 3.0 and the games run as good, so there really is no need to lock people out in playing ps5 games using pcie 3.0 or an external ssd/hdd

    One thing you forgot to mention about the PS4 games being backwards compatible with the PS5, 'some' of these games (emphasis on some) come with a free upgrade to the PS5 version. If it's disc based, it will tell you on the box to the game itself (usually on the front but it can be on the back too) that a free upgrade to the PS5 is available.

    I have two big gripes with the PS5. One is PS5 saves. If the PS5 game uses the native PS5 save system, you probably cannot delete, move, or copy individual saves for a selected game. In games like Ghost of Tsushima or Demon's Souls, any save you create in-game is permanent unless you delete your entire game save. The only way around this is to backup and restore your saves from the cloud before you created it in-game. Simply put, the PS5 native save system is inadequate and a large regression.
    My second annoyance is not being able to copy PS5 saves to USB. Your only option for PS5 specific saves (not PS4) is the cloud. If you're offline, or you don't pay for Plus, you're out of luck. The 'workaround' here is that you can backup your entire Saved Data folder through the system menu. There are other annoyances like not being able to use any themes or change any colour schemes etc. but they don't bother me as much.

    I was in a Gamestop on Christmas Eve for a giftcard and to renew Power-Up Rewards. As I stood in the line, a cashier walked to the back at least 3 times to get PS5's. Lady in front of me asked for a PS4 (??) and said "ok, that's fine" when the cashier said they only had the $330 bundle. When it was my turn, I got the second register. I asked the guy if they had any systems, he says "PS5, but only the $500 one". They also had Series S, standalone and bundles. This brought me to two conclusions.
    A. No one asks questions anymore.
    B. STOP SENDING PEOPLE TO THE STORE WITH A VAGUE LIST!!!! Someone in tx is going to be pissed when they realize the store had PS5's. I know everyone is in a different situation, but no one where I live would go to the mall on the 24th for a PS4 (unless it was for southern relatives, but even then...) when there are two other GS stores and a Target in a less than half a mile radius. It took her longer to park than wait in line, and the wait was long enough to hit all three stores. And yes, I am the type of person that had to check and see if the other stores had PS4's, which they did.

    Mine's supposed to be arriving today! :D The biggest question I have right now though:
    Which game do I go for first out of:
    1) Ratchet & Clank (something fun and simple to dive into)
    2) Horizon Forbidden West (massive open world, real PS5 showcase material)
    3) God of War Ragnorok (bigger than R&C, smaller than HFW, incredible story to look forward to)

    Another youtuber, John Glasscock, warned not to blow compressed air into those holes. As it could push dust further in to the system. Thus harder to remove without doing a deeper tear down of the outer shell. Also, I think he was implying that the dust being pushed deeper into the system could be damaging.
    He suggested only vacuuming them.

    For me the controller charge stand is the #1 accessory you cannot skip out on. These controllers have a TERRIBLE battery life.
    When they are charging if you have two controllers it allows you to swap them out if you run out of battery life. You shouldn’t run into issues ever in this scenario. But if you don’t have the charge stand i can guarantee, if you’re a gamer at all, you will run into problems

      Sony are terrible this generation. Very Anti Consumer. The real reason the battery life sucks is so you buy a second controller and alternate while one charges. Dirty tricks at play.

      @WillieJasinski ปีที่แล้ว

      You can go into your controller settings and turn the controller lights to dim, which helps a bit. It’s still not great battery life, but it’s significantly better with them at their bright setting, which is default for some reason😂

    Yes I had no idea what way the game went. It was a 50/50 chance. I got it wrong the first time and then once I flipped it, I was up and running. I don’t have many physical games but when I do load a disc game, I forget and it’s a chance scenario once again
