Oh we eagerly waiting.
It's been the longest week and it's still only Saturday
Another 5 days to to go.
I'm consoling myself by calling you all beta testers.
Nothing to be "like" bro. It's pretty wide-spread. I know a lot of you are trying to play nice and sweep it under the rug as "oh launch consoles a tiny minority will have issues". Nah. There are now five of us (my friends) that are running in to hardware issues, ranging from bricked, frequent crashes to the PS5 not playing ANY games at all. Twitter is on fire because of it and there is a MASSIVE reddit thread on it. The failure rate is real, I think it has something to do with either the firmware or Sony's SSD. I also think its a big reason why you cannot add storage to the PS5 currently (next gen wise) and I believe Sony knew there was an issue before these went out.
Why the hell else 5 days before launch do you do this?
PS5 Games Can't Be Installed or Played on External Storage Right Now - IGN
PlayStation 5 currently doesn't allow you to install, store or play next-gen games anywhere other than its internal SSD.www.ign.com
The issues won't have anything to do with not being able to expand internal storage. Sony already said in March that it won't work until they test and can guarantee which SSDs will be fast enough.
For the issues, I'm definitely not underestimating it. No rest mode or data transfer for me.
I'm treating it like Covid right now. Waiting for that vaccine firmware update.
PS4 sold 1 million first day in America alone. If PS5 did similar numbers and the majority of them had issues, we would defo know by now.

Agreed and we do. Wait till Sony releases a statement, it’s real.

Yea, apparently, it wasn't a world wide release so that PSN won't crash.
Makes sense but at the same time it got me even more annoyed.
Here I was thinking it was logistics.
My PS5 is probably just chilling in an Amazon warehouse right now doing nothing

Fedex just dropped mines off and left it right in front of the garage out in the open 
. Not even in the walkway near my door. Thank god I was home. Guaranteed that joint would have been jacked if I wasn't here within 30 mins of delivery. There are people out there driving around looking for big packages.

I had one crash Thursday evening, coming out of the download list.
There's definitely problems, no denying that. But I do think they're over stated a bit. Of course those with problems will be loud. Those with no issues are just playing. This joint has sold millions by now, if it was a crippling problem for the majority of users, we'd heard from Sony now imo.
I'm definitely not using rest mode or playing Spiderman Remaster tho.
