Is it pretty short? My girlfriend's nephew came over a few months ago, like a Friday-Sunday deal, and I'm pretty sure he beat it, start to finish while he was here. Does that sound right?
Finally had to factory reset the PS5 over the weekend. Games would only boot up intermittently. About 50% of the time the games would go to the splash screen and then freeze/flicker, sometimes accompanied by a high-pitch squealing. So I got it factory fresh, latest system update, and I'm going to install one game at a time and play them one at a time for 10-15 minutes and pray for no hiccups. I started with Watch Dogs this time and it fired right up and played fine. The first go around every game had to glitch out at least once before it would play, so.....fingers crossed. It's the risk you take getting a console on day one, I suppose.
Guys can someone help me please. I know I’m not going to get a PS5 before Christmas. I’m trying to decide if I should get my 9 year old a PS4 or a gift card and let him buy a PS5 when they are back in stock. I don’t know anything about gaming systems (last one I owned was a PS2). What would be your recommendation? If I wait on the PS5 which is better the one with the disc or the digital? Please give me your thoughts as I’m lost.

Deny the kiddo the fun of trading in his used games at GameStop?Wait on the ps5. And personally I’d go with digital because I don’t like discs, especially with young ones. No worrying about scratched discs not working, and you can just turn the console on and all your games are there waiting to start.
Games you typically replace every year, more reason to get a disc version IMO. If it was me I’d get him a gift card and let him decide what choice to make, but find a way to make a big deal out of it. Gift cards aren’t nearly as flashy as an actual gift so do something fun with it.I appreciate the replies. Now I will say he does not play online or play strategy games. He plays Madden, NBA, NASCAR and MLB. Does that change your opinion on this?

I'd be surprised if I get through the four games I mentioned by summer honestly lol.
