I play my Switch so much more than my PS4 that I'm in no rush to get one of the new consoles. The only PS4 game I got in the last 2 years was Last of Us II which was a massive letdown for me. Big fan of the first one, found the second one so so soooo tedious that I quit halfway through.
That being said, I got PSVR last Christmas, and even though I haven't played it much lately, I do think it's amazing. Played AstroBot, Beat Saber and Tetris Effect so much the first half of 2020.

Similar situation here. I mostly play the Switch as well, and I am about half way through Last of Us II but not finding it nearly as amazing as the first one.

I am intrigued by Cyberpunk though, I might just have to pick that one up.

I loved Last of Us 2.

I've pretty much just been playing the free PS+ games for a while.

Maybe I just suck at Last of Us 2 but those clicker zombies became so unbearable that I couldn't take it anymore.

I play it on easy, no shame.

I just play games at their default setting. I'm not sure when the last time I tinkered with that.

Finally was able to get through for a PS5.

The PS5 controller is the most next gen feeling thing about the console. That thing is incredible. The haptics and the trigger's ability to change pressure depending on the situation is very immersive.

The thing also blazes.

I can credit my insomnia. I was able to catch the Best Buy restock at like 3AM. It was for store pick up at my local store, I felt like I won the lottery.

I assume you're following Wario64 on Twitter? He's the best resource I know for it for sure. Good luck.

Ah, that makes sense.... I'm off for two weeks now, so maybe I'll do that every day....h.mm....

Hmmm....no, ps5stockalerts.....I'll check that one out. Thanks!

FUCK! I had a chance to get one because I got a notification of a new batch that there were 8 at the store near me, but because Target's website payment area wouldn't work correctly, I didn't get one.

Ah that's brutal. Make sure you are always completed signed into whatever site you're trying on if you havent been... that definitely helps.

Got an alert for Best Buy now, but their system is stupid as well. You have "wait" after adding it to the cart as a second step process since so many people want one....damnit! Guess I'll just have to have my phone on myself all day long.

I just watched Jingle All The Way yesterday with my daughter and I feel like the PS5 is this year's Turbo Man.

Except I want the system for myself!

Jingle All the Way is a holiday classic!
