I'm still waiting for the 'perfect' ps5 mmo game to dump 1000 hours into. I bounced around FF14 for a couple years now, but that always looses me after a milestone.

After your androgynous protagonist acquires the sword of infinite slaying that's 3x your body weight?

Well, I managed to successfully order the PS5 directly from Sony using the link from the mailer I posted about earlier. It didn't estimate a shipping/arrival date so this could still be squirrely!

they are pretty good at shipping you get it in a week or so via FedEx. The PS5 box is paper thin be careful opening it. I'd highly recommend getting a Dual sense charging station along with the system, they are fantastic and the battery life on the controller is pretty meh - around 8-10 hours. I don't think the headset or camera are worth it.

I would NOT get Ratchet and Clank (10 hours) but Demon Souls, Final Fantasy 7R Intergrade, and Miles Morales are fantastic PS5 games. Returnal if you like Rogue Lites. Other than those I play ps4 games on mine, lol Yakuza Like a Dragon and Mass Effect Legendary are great in 60 fps.

If you did standard shipping expect it Tuesday/Wednesday, if you did express possibly Monday.

I remember the Best Buy guy brought mine out to me he said "sorry about the slight tear here (around the handle where he was carrying it). This is the shittiest box I have ever seen"

After trying for such a long time, I successfully got a PS5 Digital Edition from Walmart.com today. Not really sure why I bought it. Says it arrives July 14th and I might cancel it, I kinda wanted the disc version and even then, I'm not sure why I wanted a PS5 in the first place. I feel like there's a bunch of PS4 games I missed out on playing but I'm not sure I'd go back and play any of them aside from GOW (which I still don't understand why it's not on PC yet...).

Keep it, sign up for PS+ and get the best 20 PS4 games of last gen for free (with PS+ and PS5)

If you’re a Souls head it’s worth it just for Bloodborne. Also Demons Souls~

Friend of mine scored two ps5 on accident, offered me one at cost. Guess I’m joining the ps5 club.

If you didn't own a PS4, there are tons of reasons to keep it and play the exclusives for both platforms.

Surprised he didn't try to sell you an extended warranty for the box.

Finally got my PS5 from playstation direct, excited to play the Demon Souls remake. Anyone have other PS5 recommendations?

Demon Souls, Miles Morales, Sackboy are all great games. Ratchet and Clank is great but 10 hours for $70 is ehhhhh.

Make sure to get at least a month of PS+ then go into the PS+ collection on your PS5 PSN store and add the 20 games to your library there, and play em all. God of War, Uncharted 4, the original Ratchet and Clank, Infamous, etc are all awesome

Definitely don't play Persona 5. Royal is superior in every way, and there's absolutely no savegame transfer at all. All you get is 50k yen and a few consumables for having a vanilla P5 save.
