I Played PS4 Again, And I Was Surprised...

Playstation 4 was a great console, it may have been a lot better than I originally thought. Is PS4 still worth it? Or should it be thrown away forever? Here's my mediocre review.
Thank you for watching, leave a like would you kindly?

Best thing about the ps4 right now is the games are super cheap. So If your a collector like me, you can get a good library of games for very little money. I picked up 52 ps4 games at a local car boot sale this morning for £50.

Reduced load times is the main draw for the PS5. I would add framerate but Sony hasn't done as great a job as Microsoft in boosting previous generation games. Beyond that, PS4 still seems viable today.

Aside from Borderlands 3, I can't really think of any ps4 games with absurdly long load times that I know of. I imagine No Man's Sky has to be pretty bad based off of how slow it is on pc with no sd drive. But quite frankly, though, ps4 load times are pretty nice compared to previous systems I've owned.

The PS4 is a great console for people with a small budget. Even today. The library is outstanding. Especially if you have no experience with the last Console Gen. And many Games still run well on the PS4 Slim. Also, the newer ones like GoW Ragnaròk or Horizen Forbidden West. It's a perfect package for beginning to just have fun and play. Also, for Collecting. The games are really cheap now.

One difference between PS3 and PS4 that is never talked about as far as I can tell, is when you have more than one player on the same console, on PS3 the 2nd player could still be assigned to the same user as Player 1, whereas on PS4 you are forced to log in as a guest or another user account. Sucks for couch co-op. So for example trying to play Diablo 3 co-op and the 2nd player couldn't save their character

I loved the PS4, it's just when I got my PS5, I just gifted it to a family member, since I can play most games on PS5. The only issues I had with a ps4 game on PS5 was Rush of Blood VR, it randomly pauses at times. but it still works, so at least I could play it. The rest of my library worked flawlessly. Anywho, I think the PS4 was awesome =] I happily owned PS2, PS3, PSP, PS4, PS Vita and PS5 (in that order more or less) and I loved every single second of it. I always had a pretty powerful gaming PC as a backup, for whatever game I can't play on PlayStation, but I just always prefered to play on console, my friends are mostly on console, and it's just nice to just sit on your couch, and get lost in a videogame, on PC there's countless apps that can distract you, on console the only distraction you can get is a game invite from a friend, so yeah. Maybe I'm weird xD

I bought a Ps5 to play my ps4 games but with fast ssd load times . 155 ps4 games have the free 4k/60 fps patch for ps5 . Love playing my Mass Effect ps4 disc at 4/k60 with fast load times rather than at 1080p/30 with long elevators rides hiding slow load times .
This system is a classic. The controller is the same as previous controller's. The variety of games are just wild. My backlog for this system will probably outlive me at the moment.
Since I only had a base PS4 I enjoy the PS5 for running them in their "pro mode" or a performance patch if it exists.... But it's basically a machine that plays my PS4 games better...
PS4 is my most played system.
I will never forget the day I got my PS4 out of the store with my cousin. My first big paycheck, financial independence, Bloodborne and the Uncharted collection. What a trip, such an amazing age.
It's been 4 years since I decided I needed a PS4....I'm still searching for one. Life gets in the way every single time. I need one more than ever now.
Really cool too see how his collection has grown over these pass few months 😀
Some video suggestion - getting a special TV dedicated for PS3 - Sony Bravia 3DTV - it's really something special (but also kinda hard to find)
My dad bought me the ps4 on launch day in 2013 with infamous second son, COD ghosts, and nba 2k14 and it was history after that I believe I was in middle school 6th or 7th grade but this console got me through my teenage years man I’m a bit sad now such good times.
How about an optional quick start menu where you can either directly open a game or open the home screen. Unecessary or time saver?
You need to jailbreak the system , you can do a lot of things like mod menu games like cod zombies gta5 ext.. uncap frame for some games like bloodborne assassin creed ezio collection gta5 ext… and all thos games run with decent+40fps , you can play whatever game you want with mod save data , emulation, ext…

It is my 2nd favorite system besides 1st place ps3. I still have the ps4 500 million edition sealed. :) and awesome video btw, you never disapoints! 😊
I got a PS5 back in February for my birthday but I play my PS4 more than I do the 5 lol
I only use my PS4 for indie games because whenever I play a triple A game it sounds louder than an airplane lol
Been rocking a PS4 slim since 2017, and even though it's a last gen console it continues to be an incredible value that also gets better with time.
With the amount of money you would spend in a PS5, you can get a Series S plus a second hand PS4, in good state and with some games. Guaranteed fun for months, even years. You will be able to play bloodborne and nier automata, two of my favorite games. Also Spiderman, Uncharted, God of War... amazing catalog. And the series s is good enough to play some new generation games, and game pass is a good service.
0:48 "remember that...I don't remember" 🤣
I learned not to trade my past system for the new one after the PS3 to PS4😅 then the Ps5 came along and I kept my PS4 instead cause my game catalog was better than the newest. I currently have a PlayStation 3 4 & 5.
I still love my PS4 Slim. Too many great games to play. Currently playing RE4 and having a blast with it.
Always love your videos. I still favour physical copies. I only go digital when a new batch of PlayStation+ games appear. Or...when there's no physical release. Bugger.
dualsense looks more futuristic and has those triggers but I still like dualshock 4 the most. perfect simple controller. people who have bigger hands didn't like dualshock 3 so this was good controller for them.but dualsense is even bigger so maybe little too big ?! had that share button, something I wanted since ps3 generation started. I remember the ps4 February event. Killzone Shadow Fall had one of most impressive demos ever. I remember, before the event I was wondering what could really excite me abut next-gen games and then they showed all this buildings with mirrors and I was like O_O and lights,waterfalls, puddles, cloths swinging in the wind, clean textures and not muddy as ps3 generation.... then they showed inFamous which also blew me away. the Seattle map looked different from other open world maps and districts were interesting. loved that game. took 350 screenshots during gameplay. good video ;-)
I had memories with the PS4. I loved Need for Speed Rivals, my first game for this console. I also enjoyed creating content and editing videos with ShareFactory. I stayed late up at night in a mall near my house to pick up my PS4. GameStop was awesome back in the day.
DOOM Eternal is such a great game. Seeing the footage made me want to play it again.
Idk what version I have but my PS4 fan isn't that loud. I've never had an issue with it being too loud. 🤷🏻♂️
I got myself a PS4 Pro back in November I think and recently put new thermal paste in it, I then played A Plague Tale Innocence for like 3 hours and went to feel if it was running hot and I shit you not I swear it felt cooler than when I started. I don't know what kind of voodoo that is but it now seems incapable of running hot.

I still have my PS4.
Detroit Become Human. This game was pure ps4 love. ❤
I never left my consoles behind, honestly. Maybe except my PS1 because now I have a modded PS Mini and before that I just used the PS2 or PS3 to play those PS1 games but I never truly stopped playing a PlayStation console. On my PS4 I still have all my games that didn’t get a PS5 conversion because for one My PS5 has 1tb of storage and games now are like 80 to 100gb a piece and my PS4 has a hard drive upgrade thats a 2tb so I never really stopped playing it.
I have both PS4 and PS5. It's crazy that I have yet to really want any PS5 game. All the games I am playing right now are PS4 titles in my PS5. So I started playing on my PS4 pro instead. PS4 pro is so good still specially if you upgrade to an SSD drive.
Awesome video… By the way, Stellar Blade is a must buy for the PS5. Waiting for the PS5 pro to purchase with PSVR2. Happy Gaming Everyone 😎.

I held out on getting a PS5 for as long as I could until one or two games that I really wanted came out on the five and I managed to snack one for relatively cheap. Just like with the PS3 and 4, there was a lot of backwards compatibility and remastered games out on the system at launch and that really threw me off. I managed to save quite a bit of money and get a bunch of games on PS4 still even PS3 when the change happened on that system as well.

I got used to 60fps when I started playing on PC more in Dec 23. Since then 30fps looks jarring. So I have started playing any PS4 games I already own on PS5 if the framerate is better and quite a few of them are. I have been playing more on PS3 recently and I’ve just finished killzone 2 but had to switch to an emulator as it wasn’t even hitting 30fps at times and was making me feel sick.. Amazing what you get used to 😅
The touchpad on PS5 controller does help for there not to be issues with PS4 backwards compatibility, at the very least
I’ve had a PS4, but the disc drive broke on the base model. I couldn’t WAIT to get a PS5! I REALLY WANTED to get games like Miles Morales, Jedi: Survivor, Spider-Man 2, AND Gran Turismo 7 ALL on the PS5. And I am loving it a year and five months later.
So this is what happen to finch after American pie .
Completely agree, sold my PS4 Pro and Xbox One X to buy PS5 Disc version and Series X and I've had them both around lauch or close. I personally now would be just as happy if I'd kept both the older consoles than the newer ones. There definitely ain't too much of an improvement imo

I’m playing Watch Dogs on PS3 for the first time and I love it! I beat the first Sly Cooper and got the platinum trophy over the weekend. With all the negativity surrounding modern gaming, it’s refreshing to go back in time and find retro gaming to be the era that provides the most fun. On an unrelated topic: I just snagged a brand new sealed copy of Ridge Racer 7 for PS3 on eBay the other day for a great price!
I loaded up my PS4 the other day and it was so damn slow. Games took forever to load into and play. I'm sure it was dependent on the game but crap growing up from Atari to today with Xbox and PS5 and a m.2 drive in my PC .. I feel like I'm a lil jaded and forgetful at times how I played games back in the day. Load times didn't seem like anything at all but overall they aren't too bad. A minute or three and that's it.
I only game on a PS4 Pro. I have yet to get a PS5. Games look great on the PS4 Pro. I am currently struggling with Sekiro. One needs to play smart and patient to get the upper hand in this game! Monster Hunter World is my favorite. Got to the point where I could solo any monster in the base game. It runs and looks fantastic on the PS4 Pro, too. Another fine looking game is FFVII Remake. I've only dabbled in Ghost of Tsushima. My PS4 Pro is not loud. I have one of the later model ones, I think that's why. My only beef about the controller is the pause button. It's a tiny button squeezed into a tight space. I'm pretty sure I will grab a PS5 Pro later this year. I don't really want to hold out until the PS6 before upgrading.
Yeah i get the feeling. I bought a PS5 back in November and i was so fine just playing with my PS4 that i didn't even unbox it until last month so i can play Stellar Blade which is the first game that got kind of exited. Everything else was ether on Ps4 as well or didn't seem that exciting. And the fine thing the console came with the SpiderMan 2 game since it is the special SpiderMan edition PS5 and yet i was still not that interested to take it out and start playing.

I don’t have a ps5 just a 4070 laptop but ps5 still seems attractive to me for many exclusives but yeah with the recent releases of exclusives for pc I am quite happy
I bought my PS4 pro 2 months ago and I'm really enjoying it. I come from a PC and what I like most about the console is the interface, the rest mode, the ability to have physical games and of course the wonderful catalogue of exclusives.
Still playing on PS3 and PS4 with ps VR and loving it....
It's good. I returned to it but everything that was one there was on my ps5 upscaled and ps5 is quiet
When they changed the store on PS3 PSN store from its first design to a web-based design which is what we have now and then going forward on to the PS4 and 5 was the biggest problem ever. Not to mention the store is all over the place. The stores load slow and if you have slow internet it's even worse.
Ghost of Tsushima is GOAT game
Can you make more videos, literally about anything I just wanna hear you yap
Had a ps3, never ps4 so I'm on the ps5, I really like it, but i don't really play online with people except for rocket league. Not many people like me. Interface is fine on ps5, and the background music is relaxing. Ps5 dual sense is great, except battery life can be better. My ps5 doesnt get loud or hot. Sure games are more expensive but i emulate on an imac and i have mini super nintendo modded
the memories that I built with ps4 made me love it more than ps5
The PS4 is the "new PS2", everybody and their grandmother has one, it's still crazy popular even 2024 due to it's cheap price and gigantic library, so many good exclusives and optimized ports.
I have a ps5 but i have being mostly being playing 3rd party stuff being playing limted print run releases quake 1 and 2 i do find the ps5 controller to be really uncomfortable my hands get sore after a long play session the ps4 is still a great system to own i would recommend keeping it as the ps5 has soldered hard drive on board that could potentially fail in future you basically have a bricked system least on the ps4 you can replace the hard drive if it goes faulty
Only games I would get for PS5 is Unreal5 games. R Type Final 3 which is PS5 and PC exclusive. And Robocop Rogue City. Those are my two PS5 game picks. I got a 4TB PS4 with 84 games taking up under 2Tb.
at least on the PS5 the touchbar, to my experience, is largely used to open maps, inventory, etc. That's about it. I don't know of any games on the PS5 at the moment that actually uses the touchbar in any meaningful as far as game interaction.

Honestly if GTA was available on Xbox one, I’d not be tempted at all by the latest gen consoles.
The sole reason to buy a PlayStation 5 in my opinion is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (which, I absolutely adore) - but, is that along with maybe Spider-Man 2 enough to get people to upgrade? Mostly, no. 8th gen consoles are still perfectly serviceable.
Their Essential monthly games have been horrible lately though.
I like the ps4 very much because it's reliable, has awesome exclusives and get the job done
I like the ps5 because it plays ps4 games better than ps4 could do…and ps5 games. Loved ps4 and now 5 even more.
