The PS5 has been a disappointment for me. I've only purchased a handful of games. I got it off the back of the PS4 which had so many great games.

I've not had a PlayStation since the PS2 (which I also still have btw) so I've gotten a bit more use out of it, since I can finally play (most) of the PS3 and PS4 games I missed out on (though the one I really want is like the only one not available; MGS4). However, I still kind of think it's a waste because the PS5 itself only has, what? Like 4 games that aren't on any other platform? It keeps shrinking as they port things to PC so IDK anymore what the actual count is. And one of them is the freaking tech demo that comes with the system. I mean, it's a gnarly, full on platformer game of a tech demo, but still. Could have gotten a PS4 and had the same experience, for less.

Astros Playground is probably my.moat played game on the system. I will buy the new game at some point. The vast majority of games I've played are PS4 games that have been updated for the PS5.
