I’ve owned every PlayStation from the PS1 to the PS5, including the PSP and PS Vita, and I can confidently say this is the best PlayStation console yet.From the moment you power it on, the lightning-fast SSD makes a huge difference—load times are nearly instant, and frame rates are dramatically improved, making games look and feel smoother than ever. The 4K visuals and high frame rates make PlayStation’s signature story-driven exclusives even more immersive. Titles like The Last of Us, God of War, Horizon, and Returnal are all absolute must-plays, and the PS5-exclusive Astro Bot is one of the best pack-in games ever, perfectly showcasing the DualSense controller’s incredible haptics, adaptive triggers, and touchpad.Pros:✅ Next-gen performance – Ultra-fast SSD means almost no load times.✅ Stunning graphics – 4K visuals and high frame rates make games look incredible.✅ Best-in-class exclusives – The Last of Us, God of War, Horizon, Returnal and more.✅ DualSense controller is a game-changer – Best controller I’ve ever held, with immersive haptics & adaptive triggers.✅ Astro Bot is an amazing pack-in game – A must-play for any PlayStation fan.✅ Great design – Some found it controversial, but I think it looks sleek near the TV.✅ Huge third-party library – All major games are available alongside PlayStation exclusives.Cons:❌ Storage fills up fast – While the SSD is super fast, you’ll probably need additional storage for a big game library.Final Thoughts:The PS5 is my go-to gaming console—I use it daily, and it never disappoints. Whether you’re here for blockbuster exclusives, third-party hits, or just a smooth and powerful gaming experience, this is the best PlayStation yet.Would I recommend it? Without a doubt! If you love gaming, this is a must-have.
5.0 out of 5 stars Xbox user for 20 years giving the Playstation a try.
Honestly, love the controller. That cute little Astro game that comes bundled in with it as a tech demo for said controller was so impressive for what it was. It's very quite and really big, like this is the most ridiculous sized console I've seen so far and the storage isn't that impressive compared to the Series X. However two things i do appreciate though is the complete lack of advertisements on the home screen, which Xbox is riddled with and third party NVME support. Meaning you don't have to spend a ridiculous amount of money on the Series X/S Seagate one.Now that's not to say i like everything about it, Microsoft went through quite a lot of effort to make as many 360 and original Xbox games backwards compatible with One X enhancements or FPS boost available for both Series consoles and well Sony has only focused on it's last gen games which is extremely disappointing.Onto gaming it plays games at way higher resolution than my Series S and is really silent whilst doing so. Playing God of war (first one) 4k 60fps is something to behold and whilst there's a few other games that I'm going to try out out i think I'm going to have fun.Now would i recommend this? yes. First party offerings are miles ahead of Xbox at this current moment in time. As Xbox offerings have been lacking, disappointing or whatever the hell Redfall is for the last 10 years. Also the always online DRM...Yeah. However Series X/S is better value for money and you can actually emulate PS1/2 games with dev mode on the series consoles.The PlayStation is better value for gaming in my honest opinion. PSVR is also an option to have an entirely different experience that's completely none existent over at Xbox. Great selection of first party games, much nicer less marketized home screen and a something i found humorous, it's own version of game pass with a lot of Bethesda games on XD.I haven't really played all that much on it at the moment but i have a few games downloaded from their version of the play pass.Updated: It's still good, what I'd like to add is that the PS5 is much easier to clean as it's not that hard to take apart and blow the dust out.Update again: The backwards combability is literally paywalled into a subscription, so if you want to play older games without having to pay then i recommend the Xbox, not only do you just pop the disc in and install said game from the disc...You'll have One X enhancements, FPS boost and HDR, OG Xbox, 360 and the One games all have this and the sheer fact PlayStation doesn't (PS2-PS3 backwards compatibility?) is mind boggling. For the same price as the highest tier PS sub you can just get dev mode on the Series consoles and emulate every game under the sun from Atari to the Wii this is one of my biggest criticisms of the PlayStation and the other is how restrictive it is no third party keys allowed, terrible refund policy, like come on Sony? Steam and Xbox at least allow you to play the game and refund it or buy it cheaper somewhere else....It's like Nintendo.Most of my original review still stands, i love the controller and haptic feedback and the games that utilise it, yet i constantly have to mute the controller because listening to people mash buttons through it is not only annoying, it's downright tedious.
