Do you sleep beside a PlayStation? Just curious, it’s quite unsettling your Sony Defense Force persona. I can assure you the piece of plastic’s feelings won’t be hurt.

Did that rub you the wrong way? Don't be shy, you can cry, won't judge.

You'd think people would be used to this by now. It sucks, but this is just how these launches go. Risk you take for being an early adopter.

It's just amplified because it happened to a popular streamer with an audience. It's not going to be the only one, but it's the one everyone hears about.

Hopefully when a non-hidious black version comes out they will have gotten the kinks out.
Funny story about screwed up hardware. I bought a new Headset for the PC (Logitech G Pro X) a month or so ago. I was playing games with it and could not figure out why the sound seemed off in Battlefield 4. I went to Youtube and did some stereo tests and found out the fucking speakers were swapped (left was right, right was left). It was not possible for me to be wearing them backwards either as the mic only comes out one direction. I took them back to best buy and got another pair, which work great, but holy hell man, how does that even happen?

And that's why I am in no hurry to get one, I can wait. My backlog is pretty big anyway.

This is a very weird issue to have. Maybe some routers require more power through wifi in rest mode when the PS5 is limiting it to a lesser wattage, possibly stressing the console in rest mode and turning it off? God knows. I always have it wired and I'll keep it that way.

I thought this guy broke a review embargo and MS nuked his xbox.

That's what was being said but I don't think it was ever confirmed. He was the first person to show footage of AC Valhalla before the embargo was lifted, so I imagine that's why people are coming to that conclusion.

Got one from Walmart for $58 for 3 years. Not bad at all for security/peace of mind.

It's not just one console though, is it?
Will be interesting to see how this develops.

The fucking source itself is in front of you, and he contacted Xbox directly. And he's getting a new one now:
Stop with this stupid theory, it'll damage their image much more than "breaking" an embargo! It should even have major law suits against them if they ever do it as he signed no NDA!

Did he buy the previous xbox or was it given to him?

Read the dates of all the tweets posted. It's not the end of the world to see some faulty consoles around, pretty normal but it'll get reported more now as social media is too strong currently.

I listened while in the car so I was half paying attention. Yong Ya mentioned this in his video where if the system sits in rest mode for long enough, power is turned off and has to be manually turned on via the power button. After powering on the system shows an hdd error and rebuilds. He said Sony recognized this a known issue on Google modems and are working on a fix. I believe I heard he didn't have a Google modem and still had the issue. I'm wondering if data is being downloaded, or written to the drive, and the console automatically turns off or is triggered to shutdown. I have a similar issue with my PS4 Pro. It's always in rest mode, but sometimes I go to turn it on and the orange light is off and have to manually turn the console on. Afterwards, the console goes into the hdd rebuild/data check. It's happened a couple times and always come back okay. I get worried because I have a playable version of P.T.

Microsoft and Sony have a self destruct button for these review consoles so these bumboys don't get any freebies

I'm in it for a new experience. The PS5 will deliver this on many fronts. The extra power is only a bonus.

These are usually the answers I get when I ask people why they got next gen (current) port machines.
- I have 10 million dollars in my bank account why not?
- I...just want to buy things!
- SHINY THING IS SHINY!
- I'm a collector woah!

My launch PS4 lasted nearly 7 years under heavy use, I expect my PS5 to do the same.

Just remember that Walmart’s protection plan is handled by Allstate, the associates can’t do anything in store after the first 30 days.

Both my launch PS3 and Xbox 360 ended up dying years back ..... this is part of being an early adopter.

Mine got the white light of death after the HDMI port failed. Also had the stock hard drive die. Sony fixed the HDMI issue and I just upgraded the hard drive.
