Reply to comment by Elitrical in What should I buy as my first console? by RUNELORD_

As a absolute broke person I got my series s through probably the most lucky trade I can say fully the series s is an amazing console around $160-200 second hand and there's always sales ^^def suggest series s

Playstation is still too busy ripping everyone off and tend to fault alot

Hmm. Haven’t had a fault in my PS5 at all but yeah I think the price hike was unnecessary.

I'd imagine the ps5 is great I meant like PS4/PS4 pro they love to just die weather it's locking in safe mode or overheating

Oh ok. That’s not an issue on PS5 anymore

We have been running 2 ps4 and 2 ps4 pro consoles since they released and Never had any issues. As with every console or pc, you have to clean it once in a while b/c of the dust etc. but besides that they have always been running great. PS5 also still going strong after ~18 months of heavy use. Are you sure your ps4 didn’t overheat b/c of built up dust/hair and such?

uh I agreed ps5 is great but it's not exactly the best option for price but from experience and friends and family experience ps4s even with cleaning have straight up failed after so long compared to ppl ik with Xboxs is I'm not saying it's all of them but so far majority
