@riccardogranato1274 I just bought a ps4 Pro for $140. it still gets the job done only reason I bought it is to play the new resident evil 4 remake you should check it out man it looks good
I had my original PS4 since spring of 2015, it’s still fully functional and great shape, but the antilog controllers has it’s issues over the years on the controllers, it’s better to buy freshly brand new controller in case your controller is damaged or having issues. I’m still keep playing PS4 till they stop making PS4 games.
I can confirm. The controller that came with the original PS4 has short lasting analogue sticks. I was forced to buy a new controller. I will keep playing PS4 way after they stopped releasing games for it, until they release a PS5 design that is acceptable for my living room.
Man I feel like a genius. Lol. I am a late adopter now ever since I paid $700 for the ps3 on day 1. I just bought a ps4 pro 1tb for $180 and with a load of games. That's why I feel like a genius. Lol I will also do the same with the last 3 to 4 years of the ps5.
I upgraded my PS4 Pro with a newer model Samsung 4TB SSD and it's now lightening fast and smooth as butter. Plenty of space for more than enough games, loading times complete right away (ie. Cyberpunk 2077 went from minutes to seconds when first loading into the game), and also serves as a slight graphics upgrade when you consider texture loading/pop-in dramatically improves with the SSD. Not to mention, there are so many cross-play/cross-save/cross-buy video games on the PS4/PS4 Pro systems, there's not much you will be missing if you go with it vs. the PS5, in my opinion. If you can comfortably afford a PS5 then go for it, but personally speaking, I'm going to wait for a PS5 Pro before I buy a PS5 (if I even buy one). It's already halfway through it's life cycle and there are not many exclusives for the PS5 either since it was released at such a terrible point in world history. Anyways, I love my PS4 Pro (+Samsung 4TB SSD). It's an amazing console. Paired with the PS Vita for remote play? Super fun... just need a really good internet connection and you'll be solid. I love it and you (reader) will too. PS. I honestly enjoyed the rambling. I'm a rambler as well. Lol. I like to fully explain and get my point across when speaking on a topic I'm passionate about... so I totally feel you! Liked, commented, and subbed! :)
Hey man personally I would of had some footage in this of it running some games, either capture card or just recording your screen for sharing purposes. Either way good informative video. I have a PS5 but I can honestly say the PS4 is still a solid system, I just recommend upgrading the HDD in the PS4 to an SSD, they are reasonably priced now, you don't need more than a 2TB one and it makes a noticeable improvement all around (game load times, texture pop in for games, menu response times etc). Especially on the Pro.
This is the most detailed video on the PS4 aside from turning on the console, was contemplating on whether to fix my broken PS4 slim or save money for a ps5, i think I'll fix the PS4 use it for a year or two I'll throw in a SSD too. Thanks for the info
Watching this video, this remind me when I bought a 2TB SSHD for my PS4. SSDs back then were expensive. I will be keeping my PS4 even when I have a PC. There are still games in the PS4 that have no PC ports. Maybe I will buy a PS5 once it's affordable, late in its life cycle. Haha
This was a great video. Thanks so much! I'm nowwwwww looking for a PS4 to upgrade from a PS3 and I I tend to hold on to that PS4 for a long time. Library of games Netflix CZcams
I have ps4 slim and i bought him in late 2023 (Christmas) also his condition is like new first owner really cared about him...he is very good for me who is expert in games fortnite on 60fps is very good and other games on 30 fps solid yk got him only for 170€ with 2 joysticks cleaned him and he is very good i see his support like until 2027 or 28 he is far away from end
i just got one in white, im a console collector, i dont buy the latest and greatest im usually a gen behind, i put off buying one because it isnt backwards compatable but the exclusives made me want one so ive done the deed.
I loved my ps4s. Went from original to ps4 pro and a ps5 for more than one year. I still play my main original ps4 for all 1080p games, no point in using my ps5. And yes the dual shock 4 still is a great controller, but miles apart from the ps5 one. Good review but you cant compare it to a new gen console if you don’t own one.
I used own ps4pro but it died but my brother let have his ps4 Slim and i own ps5 but decided keep it in the box till my birthday i only got wait till June
it got persona 5 games and plays resident evil 5 and 6 as well. these 2 game themselves screamed high quality. it's a must buy if you don't have any better choice for your money.
That's also true I been struggling to get the next gen console each time especially getting the 5 I have the 4 trade in to the series x just to play Gotham knights but I'm a playstation person but happy what I got that I have a 5 trade the Xbox in since it messed up my TV til I have people complaining I told them you will do the same thing as well to get what you want so don't ruin my dreams that they have a crappy job at GameStop but you do speak the truth though I respect that my good sir
Did you face the loud fan noise in PS4 because I faced that and I wanted to know what to do with it how to solve it Other that that I am satisfied with my purchase
I would. But remember they won't get any more new games very soon. So if you think there will be future games that you'd want to play, then it may be worklth getting a ps5. If you can get a ps4 for under 200 in good condition, I'd say go for it
Lots of people will disagree with you on the fact that "Digital-only consoles are a scam" But don't worry, I actually do agree with you on that. I mean why can't we just have the option for both physical and digital?
I think the Xbox is easier to upgrade it can also have a sad upgrade plus you can just buy a 2 tb external hard drive plug it into your system and boom there you go
i bought a used base ps 4 fat model first gen and used that for 3 months. i played rdr 2 and the sound was very loud but it was still good. then i sold that and put some more money and bought a ps 5.
I think buying a first hand ps4 for 250 is better than buying a 180-200, as it's already used, and would probably cost 40-50 more for maintenance, also life span would be shorter than the one you buy 1st hand. What do you think? I personally am a casual, very casual gamer, i have no interest in spending so much money on games, i wanted a console that can come in my budget rn, to play PS exclusives like gow. I don't care about 60 fps or 4k hdr, basic 30 fps HDR is enough for me, i bought a PS4 slim 1st hand at 280 with one year seller warranty, and one year extended warranty, i think I can use them for my timepaas for the next 7-8 years, also i won't play sitting very close to the screen, so spending extra for 4k don't make that sense to me on. also the PS4 pro available in my country (1st hand) was of 360, so i don't think the money was worth it for just an extra 60 fps, as 4k is of no use to me, i have a decent sized screen but prefer to sit quite far of it. Btw, great video dude, i could really relate to most of what you said.
Also, i personally wanted to use this for 7-9 years, and i don't think buying a second hand would help, so i thought spending an extra 30-40 would be worth it down the road, maybe after 5-6 years, it might still work for a couple more years.
@@p.s.oberoi4270 the ps5 will get cheaper, and 7 years is a lot to ask from a 10 yr old device, in my opinion do 2 or 3 yrs with ps5 until better ps5 titles are released and after saving for it get it
When devs (publishers) say "we are not making a lot on PS4-version sales cause 80% get the game on PS5" they'll drop ps4 altogether, even if the ps4 pro is able to play those games at 1080p 30fps.
Hi . My question is I am interested in ps4 I have only budget for ps4 slim . I can afford ps5 . And I will only play some titles like fifa or efootball or spider Man . I am Not a hard core gamer. I only play for leisure
If a developer wants to release a game only on the more powerful version of the console, they can't do that, must be compatible with all versions of the console. If that's the case they have to ditch the whole platform. Same with Xbox Series. That's why Street Fighter 6 and Resident Evil 4 have PS4 versions but won't be released on Xbox One. I guess capcom didn't bother about the base xbox one or something.
I got the one in the video still runnin and I still got the ps4 pro 500milion limited edition ( unopen) n seald aswell as the ps4 slim as Backup 😅 fuck the ps5 maybe I will buy the slim Version by the end of 2023 maybe
i have my ps4 slim and i love the it jst small and fit to my set up ...unlike ps5 is way to big and i dont like that spaceship design ,,,,i really dont like it
i own ps1 ps2 and ps3 and agree with you, controller never was that great , the xbox360 controller was a lot better, i will give judgement on the PS4 controller when it arrives.
THE PS4 IS FOR THE BIRDS NOW GET THE PS5 DISC EDITION AND YOU NEED AN 55 INCH LG OLED B2 OR C2 LINE THEN YOUR REALLY SET FOR A GOOD TIME WITH MAX GRAPHICS
Not really a scam but i agree its Overpriced and I dont give a fuck i have no intention of buying a ps5 until it comes down in price. Or just go to pc someday for online gaming because my ps4 current is broken and doesnt read discs so ill just buy aps4 slim instead to replace it 😊
2024 I got mine at good will for 20 dollars in south Philly ps4 pro and when I type the serial number in on Google, I don’t know why but they’re selling for $1000 when it’s March 2024 I don’t know why wallmart wants 1000

Why to be 😂its luck for you if its your first console
