The PlayStation Console: A Mixed Bag of Experience
I recently had the opportunity to try out the new PlayStation console, and I must say that it's a mixed bag of an experience. The menu system is lacking in its lack of flair, with nothing particularly exciting or unique about it. However, this may change over time.
One major issue I encountered was the heat emanating from the console. As someone who's used to playing on computers, I wasn't prepared for the fact that a gaming console could run as hot as my desktop machine. This made me sweat just watching it in action. I've even stopped using it due to this excessive heat.
The PlayStation is an AMD Ryzen APU, which is designed to handle both CPU and GPU tasks. However, when combined, it becomes a powerful but overheating machine that's prone to throwing off hot air like my computer does. The manufacturer should be more considerate of users who plan to use their console in confined spaces.
Despite the heat issue, I was pleased with the visuals on offer. Recording footage at 1080p looked crystal clear and smooth, even when playing games in 4K resolution. There were no instances of stuttering or lag during gameplay, which made for a very enjoyable experience.
The game itself was excellent, offering a seamless gaming experience that didn't leave me feeling frustrated. I must admit that my natural preference is to play with mouse and keyboard, but the PS controller was surprisingly solid in its performance.
In fact, one of the standout features of this console is its control pad – it's incredibly well-designed and feels great in the hand. This is something that Sony has got right, as I found myself thoroughly enjoying using this console.
The only major complaint I have with the PlayStation is its aesthetically cheap and ugly exterior design. The shell looks warped, and there's something fundamentally wrong with how it was designed. However, aside from this, I found nothing to criticize about the console itself.
Overall, I'm giving this a thumbs up for regular users and PlayStation fans. It's an excellent option that won't leave you feeling disappointed on Christmas Day. Just make sure to keep your console in an open spot so it can breathe properly.
WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys uh whoo this is it i've turned on the ps5 i've been playing the ps5 now for about two days and well i guess i'll give you my thoughts now you guys know i'm an xbox fan so i'm going to be as unbiased as possible and i will do the same thing when i finally play the xbox as you guys know i've already got hate on for that controller so let's uh take a look at what i think now first off right off the bat the startup and setup annoyed the hell out of me the thing talks to you and it's the most annoying i've ever seen maybe along the way there was a way to turn it off and i didn't notice it and if you do know about it please comment below because anybody that owns a ps5 is going to want that feature turned off it annoyed me so bad that i was literally going to stop the review it's just horrendous the reason why i say that is it talks about everything i know this is a stupid thing to go on about but if you slide over a game the game is blah blah blah it is zero point two three two five for definite you can download it now for 39.99 seriously don't ever i really hope the xbox continues its natural design anyway moving on i'm gonna go with the couple pros first and one pro i gotta say when i was downloading uh games this thing was pretty fast the wi-fi on this is stupid it's very fast and i could say a 23 gig file was downloaded in or sorry a 24 gig file no sorry i got that wrong again 23 gig file was downloaded in 24 minutes that's not amazing but that's pretty darn good i mean this is a wi-fi connection i used it on which i'm gathering most people are going to do so that's what i did it on we all know that the hardwire is faster the gamepad i love the gamepad i was very very happy with it but i'm going to show a little part of my video here where i was walking around and the guy just kept walking now at first i'm like what the hell i'm not touching any of the controls anymore so the s the left stick just stayed and it was it was back it didn't actually physically stay but my person kept walking you'll see me stuttering back and forth so i'm trying to figure out if it's going to do it again now did it once didn't do it again i'm sorry guys when it comes to me playing on a game pad i suck and you can see in the game footage i suck yes i got victory royale i actually got twice the two games i played a fortnight i got it twice but that's because i started off as a new player and it probably was mostly bots there are cons to this console so terrible setup is one thing i mentioned that voice robot that whatever ai crap that sony's got going on get rid of it nobody cares if you're a fan of it then you're a sony fanboy so ai sucks the talking literally literally pissed me off i don't like their menu their menu interface is kind of and this is probably because i'm an xbox person i'm used to something else so you gotta take this with a grain of salt to a point i think their menu sucks compared to microsoft's but that's yet to be seen i don't know if the xbox series x has a different menu than the xbox one i'm really hoping they kept the xbox one menu really hoping bottom line is i find that the playstation menu is kind of lacking it's lackluster it doesn't have anything fancy to it um it might again it just might be me not knowing the console biggest thing that i had a problem with is the heat i am sweating because that thing puts off as much heat as my computer does that's not cool now i understand that it is a computer people need to understand that this is an amd ryzen apu which is going to run harder than just a cpu but if you have a cpu and a gpu together you're going to run damn hot this thing is running even now it's throwing a lot of heat and i stopped using it a while ago i've actually factory reset it and that's why that picture's there in the background that is the picture you're greeted with at first plug in your playstation controller press the ps button and it tells you that and then it tells you when you don't do it in french this thing is running blistering hot so i'm just going to recommend to all you people out there please do not put this in a cabinet do not put this in a confined area let it sit out like this and let it breathe so my thoughts overall the visuals visuals are great i went through my 4k pass through i the video footage you're seeing is actually recording in 1080p unfortunately but it's crystal clean it's very clear i didn't find any uh stutter in the game everything was very smooth on the tv i was playing on 4k so uh it was doing really well it looked gorgeous i'm not going to say it didn't it absolutely did and i expected it to i mean come on in this day and age even the ps4 out there looks really good so i didn't expect sony to to bomb on that i expected what i expected and that was to have some good visuals and it definitely did so it didn't let us down that way the game was extremely smooth uh being a lower power console than the xbox one i don't really think i'm going to see a difference but the next video of course is the xbox one and we'll find out but at this point i can't say that we would see it physically it wouldn't make sense will i see it visually i doubt it but we'll be uh checking that out in the next video and and i i gotta say i have no hate for this console if when the prices come down or they're available there's a high possibility i will end up owning one other than its aesthetically cheap ugly exterior sorry people it's not that good looking at console it looks warped it really does look work there's something wrong with that i don't know who designed it who's thought that was but damn anyway that's about the only hate i can put on it is i don't like the shell okay other than that i really really really really enjoyed this gamepad this gamepad this is the most solid gamepad i've ever used this is the best gamepad i've ever put in my hand to this point sony you freaking nailed it that's right i said freaking didn't swear but you nailed it you nailed it on the hammer that one time this stuck who knows that could have been just a flipping glitch if it was that was the only glitch that i had with the console so guys i'm definitely giving this a thumb and a half because i hate the look of it and you're not going to be disappointed on christmas day you're not going to be disappointed as a regular user you're going to be damn happy as a playstation fan to have this console just listen to me and keep it in an open spot so it can breathe till next time guys hope you enjoyed my gameplay-ish video in the background with my ugly ass gamepad footage because i don't know how to play on a gamepad keep in mind when it comes to shooters i'm a mouse and keyboard guy so you gotta give me some slack so don't hit me in the comments down below about my gameplay okay all right there were bots they weren't bots they were they were like skilled skilled humans and i wiped them all out twice youhey guys uh whoo this is it i've turned on the ps5 i've been playing the ps5 now for about two days and well i guess i'll give you my thoughts now you guys know i'm an xbox
