PlayStation 4 500GB Console - Call of Duty Black Ops III Bundle [Discontinued]

Absolutely love my purchase. I had a PS1 and a PS3. Skipped PS2, strangely enough. And I've always had Nintendo consoles.I'm very late to the PS4 party because I've had a PC. I really wanted to play Infamous: Second Son, but I wasn't spending $400+ on what I'd know to be a 12 hour experience.But, times have changed and Uncharted 4 was coming out. I checked all the games I'm interested in.Infamous Second SonInfamous First LightBloodborneDriveclubLittleBigPlanet3Really the only games I wanted to give a try. So, with 5 or 6 of them I decided that it was a good time to get in the game.I also bought a new 48" TVA Sound BarAn Extra controllerA generic 4-port USB charging stationAnd I've been having a blast. Of course Uncharted 4 was fun. Infamous Second Son was all I needed it to be. Driveclub, on the other hand, was sleeper hit for me with it's season pass! Just SO. MUCH. CONTENT!I'm an IT guy that like to dive into the little optional settings and features. And the PS4 has 'em!I like remote play. It's cool. If I don't want to leave my room to play some PS4 (hard to justify, got a sound bar in the living room!), I can just stream it to my PC. Where it gets cool is it's easy over-the-internet as well. It's limited to 720P, unfortunately, but it works really well. I can stream it to my 720P 8" tablet and play anywhere with an okay internet connection.The Share Play is also pretty cool. Sometimes you want to game with your friends..... without actually playing a game. So you can just watch a friend play and talk trash about them and their life decisions. Then after they get fed up from you telling them "Dude, you really suck at this part," they can hit "Pass Controller" to give YOU control of the game since you're SO good at it, chump.I've only got two complaints.1. The battery life on these controllers. Since I came from a Wii U, I got used to the outrageous-long battery life of the Pro Controllers. 30-40 hours on them things! PS4 controller feels like.... 52. If you want to play online, you'll probably need PS+. I like PS+, but I don't like it being required to play online. Games for May weren't up my alley so waiting on June to see if the new freebies will be good.

At first I was skeptic because of some reviews and videos I saw online, so far it works great day 3 now owning it and I haven't seen any issues thus far still on the look out cause it might still be a bit early to tell. Moving from a ps2 - ps4 a lot has changedGameplay excellent!Graphics phenomenal!The dash board pretty sweet and sleek lookThe setup time not as long as I heard previous reviews state I got to set it up and play zombies mode real quick will the game installed In the background took me about 45 mins to an 1hrAll games have to be installed now that's not really great cause that takes up a lot of space before you even get to play it, console comes with 408gb cause most of it is used up for system data and updates right after setup.Heats up real fast but if your not a hardcore gamer which I am no longer because I'm no longer young and without responsibilities this is and idle system for you hardcore gamers this still is a great system for you just check it periodically for overheating problems.I bought this system because it obviously had better exclusive than Xbox love both system but ps4 was the better choice for me. Hope I can still have these 5 stars after a year and beyond!

When I received the PS4 it was delivered a day late. Which doesn't both me honestly. What gave me a mild heart attack was the packing having a hole going through it. When I put my hand into the tear I could feel the PS4 underneath. Something had hit it hard enough to punch through the Amazon box, outer PS4 box, and the inside PS4 box!! Made me very nervous to see this to say the least. I hesitantly took it out of the package to see that the skin foam sheet around the PS4 was ripped too but there were no scratches on the PS4 it's self. I set everything up and it is running fine and the game it came with is not damaged either luckily. I'll add pictures to the review of the box to show the damages.After putting it all together I realized the small mic that PS4s usually come with was not inside the box. (*maybe the version I ordered just doesn't come with the mic? But every new PS4 should come with this little mic*)After everything I'm still glad I ordered the PS4 as I have had an Xbox One sense the day they were released. With larger player count on PS4 servers for online gaming I wanted to switch over. Also I can say that the PS4 seems to have a much more depth in color. Darker blacks and crisper whites, etc.If you plan on getting the PS4 I recommend waiting till after November 10th, that is when the PS4 Pro will be released which should cause a drop in the regular PS4. But i did not want to wait though because must of the games in interest in (BF1, COD) are releasing their new games before then.

It was fantastic

I truly stink at games, but I thought I would give myself one last go of it and purchase the PS4. The game that comes with it is quite exciting. You play a Special Forces Character and you get to go on missions to rescue people. You get to kill a lot of people. I guess if one needs stress relief without really hurting someone, this is the game for you. Personally, I feel guilty after I kill someone in the game. I'm a sensitive soul. Some would call me a wimp, I guess. But thankfully I bought the baseball game called The Show16 This is a ton of fun. You get to pretend your a pro baseball player, which is awesome. The other great attributes to the PlayStation 4 is you can watch TV from it. There are a number of apps to chose from. Netflix, Amazon Prime and so forth. You can stream music which is a ginchy attribute. Let's see, you can watch a DVD even Blue-Ray. Anyway, it was well worth the purchase. You'll have hours of fun with it. It definitely gets your mind out of your everyday life and rests you in another world all together, if just for an hour or two.Enjoy
