Nice! I have had mine for about a month or so now. I am experiencing the "controller drift" that everyone is talking about every great now and then. Not alot but have noticed it a handful of times. Now I gotta buy a way better TV so it actually does it some justice. The shit box i have just looks like PS4 stuff lol

I wonder if the drift is update removable?
I’ll get a review from the kids on the games they ordered with it.

There is a lawsuit out over it. Its the controllers. What games did they get? I LOVE the battlefield games. They are incredible. So much you can do and level of destruction is wild. I cant wait for the new one! They are talking about having like 124 players in one game at a time or something like that. And the building will crumble differently depending on where they are hit. If all or some if it is true its gonna be insane!

I have thought of getting one for the kids. What are your thoughts on the PS5?

Didn’t know they’re back in-stock. I kinda gave up looking. Love me some late night Madden. Nothing better than beating 11 yr olds. (Least that’s what my wife says).
Kids got on the Target waiting list, a text rang in that orders were open and they bought it.
They ain't cheap.

I bought this TV when I got my Xbox series X. It is the cheapest TV with a 2.1 HDMI and can play 4K at 120hz to take full advantage of your new PS5.

Gonna be a tough sell this time around. Used to sell it as it was fun for me and the boys. Used to hang out with my oldest and play. He’d play offense, I’d play defense against someone online. If we played each other it’d get ugly on occasion. :oops: My birthday is coming up though anddd we don’t have a PS in Havasu.

Super Mario Bros and Nintendo music took the place of Christmas music in the morning.
I do miss it. It became a staple.

I don’t get the infatuation with the play station.
I play a game or two on my phone but my god I’m not standing in a line or paying a huge premium but I guess that’s just me.
Insight me.

It’s hard to believe how difficult it still is to get a PS 5. I got the kids the new X Box series X for Christmas and had to buy it on the secondary market. I’d like to get them a PS 5 as well but they’re next to impossible to get right now.

last pong tournament we had one of the guys had one to many Jolt colas and when he lost, he kicked the 13inch tv and blew out the picture tube, we upgraded to a 19 inch tv.... it’s so nice! The Screen is huge!!!

Demon souls and Valhalla Assassins Creed are their current game. The kids like them. The rumor is the slow rollout is delaying the release of games goes the tale.

Didn’t pay a premium or stand in line.
Son got on the Target waiting list and got a text and got the game 4 days later.
I don’t play any games.

I figure the way this business goes, I'll just keep my ole PS2, soon it will be considered nostalgic. 😂

You laugh, but one of my friends is big into gaming and searches for the old stuff. He's paid a premium for older game stations and games.

We all need a hobby I guess.

I was kinda serious, only because I know my daughter paid a grip of $$ for a really old gaming ( Nintendo perhaps) platform for my grandson.
And of course I'm blown away when I see ladies jeans for sale for huge dollars with far more holes than the ones I wear chain sawing avocado trees.
Then there's the fact, how those cars I bought new for $ 3K or less back in the 60's are worth mega dollars today.
Look how analog tube amps and turntables playing scratchy LPs we ditched 40 years ago are suddenly all the rage.
My old Elroy Hirsch LA Rams football card my dad tossed 50 years ago would probably buy me a new car today --- AMAZING !!!

So yup, it's not taking up space I need for now, so I'll just hang on to it and the games, who knows ????????

The new game deal is pretty frustrating right now. Far Cry 6 has been pushed back multiple times and now there is no known release date. The latest new game we picked up is Cyberpunk 2077 and it’s kind of a bust.
