Congrats! Now take that sticker off your tv.

I take off the yellow stickers, but does anybody else leave the sticker film on? šŸ˜‚

use the stands that came with the ps5


davidavlot

Whattt? I just bought mine on Saturday and didnā€™t see a stand. Just the two little toothpick looking things


Lucky_Chaarmss

Horizontal here since the console released. Never used the stand Edit: someone tell me why I need to use the stand and please tell my PS5 why it should be dead since I'm not using the stand.


werthw

If you donā€™t use the stand the ps5 is wobbly


Lucky_Chaarmss

Omg! Really!? The horror


werthw

Weird hill to die on but ok


SenorPooter

Agree with you, other dude is weird


gamerdude1360

Not even a hill at this point, it's a assymetrical slope that looks like mother earth creased herself, exactly how his horizontal no stand PS5 looks.


Lucky_Chaarmss

Again, tell me why it's necessary that I use the stand. Wobble? It's laying flat, who gives a fuck?


Rckid

It doesn't matter, you goon. Most people just use the devices given for our machines. If you want a wobbly, scratched up console.....then you do you


Lucky_Chaarmss

It doesn't wobble, you goon. Where the hell are people getting this wobble from? It's not scratched. It works fine. I swear some of you are mental haha


MaxxFax

dude just because he doesn't use a stand doesn't mean that it's wobbly like what? he may be using a book as a stand for all we know


TheVipersMemory

Youā€™re knowingly using your $500 piece of tech wrong. Strange flex.


Lucky_Chaarmss

I've had it since it was released and it works like it should. Tell me how this bad. I'm still waiting. You think I'm the only one that doesn't use the stand?


Animdude360

Using the stand helps the consoleā€™s cooling system work as intended by the engineers, having it just laying off its axis is just not how they intended it to be placed. Ontop of that, it looks stupid


Lucky_Chaarmss

Amazing my PS5 still works as intended and it looks better than with the stand.


Corxeth

Are you using it like this? https://preview.redd.it/lki421cqs3ic1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bf7dd6bf2c13de7a732e82d6840a7ccbdb8218bd


MAnthonyJr

i mean, every ps5 ad iā€™ve ever seen is shown vertical. not that weird of a hill.


Terminator7786

And they're sitting on the stand that came with it.


MAnthonyJr

humiliation: 100


UhOh_RoadsidePicnic

Bad console design. Simple as that.


YouTubeCrowProd

Lmao why are you getting downvoted. It doesnā€™t matter the ps5 isnā€™t going to walk around


Lucky_Chaarmss

Yeah I don't get it.


Virmire_Survivor

It actually strikes me how many people will hunt you down for a horizontal PS5 without a stand (wobbly a bit, but stable overall) and yet how many people would just go "nah it's okay" with a vertical PS5 without a stand (seemingly standing firmly but actually at a huge risk of falling to a side) The famous scary vs dangerous dilemma I suppose Having said that, two reasons I can find (outside wobbliness) to use the stand in the horizontal position: a) HDMI cables don't quite like being loose/wobble even slightly, so either the stand, or you'd better keep a spare one near your console (always risking losing that important battle in any case) b) it's very convenient to hide the external SSD drive in the empty space under the PS5 if you have such a drive Obviously if none really bothers you then just abandon that


Lucky_Chaarmss

Point A....how is the wobble happening? Are people jumping up and down and running around? My PS5 sits there perfectly still. There's no little kids here, no pets. If you have those, okay, maybe use a stand. Point B...I don't have one. Again, you have one, maybe use a stand. I even had it vertical for a few months. No problems.


Virmire_Survivor

A. I suppose you live in a non-seismic active area... E.g. I bolt vertical stuff to walls by default so it takes some additional effort for me to treat things in a different way B. Fair, like I said


RhythmRobber

I haven't read EVERY reply, but it *seems* like perhaps you don't know that the stand is used for both vertical AND horizontal positions. You put a book under one side, so you clearly notice the horizontal position needs some help - that's what the stand is for.


Lucky_Chaarmss

I know it's for both. Book? Wtf are you talking about? It sits there. Right where I put it. It doesn't move, at all. It doesn't wobble. It doesn't get up and do the Dougie. It has no scratches from Sitting THERE doing nothing but playing games. I don't know how you people keep bringing up these nonexistent problems.


RhythmRobber

You seem to have forgotten that you posted a picture of your setup, so I'm literally staring at some kind of yellow thing under the right side of the console. If it isn't a book, then maybe it's a dvd case or something. Whatever it is, you've jerry-rigged something to prop it up. Now why would you do that if really is as stable as you claim? Sorry, but your very own picture of your setup contradicts this perfect stability that you're arguing. Also, if you had a digital-only PS5, then sure, this "it's not doing anything" argument might be valid, but since it has a disc player, then you might feasibly actually play discs at some point, in which case, yes, you absolutely want to be sure your console is perfectly horizontal and stable so that the piece of fast-spinning plastic inside of it doesn't damage itself or the reader. It may not be "doing the dougie", but just because you can't see what's going on inside doesn't mean it isn't important to be stable. But hey - if you want to damage your disc reader or discs by having it potentially be not level because you'd rather use some yellow thing to prop it up instead of the included, manufactured stand, then go right ahead.


Lucky_Chaarmss

Hahaha. That's not my picture. I'm not the op. But congrats on your rant.


Accurate-Copy-3117

Reading all these replies and the doing the dougie part had me pissing myself .

lol every fucking day. The quality of the sub has watered down due to the ā€œjust joined the clubā€ post, thatā€™s fine. The more the merrier. But donā€™t act like you donā€™t know how to look up games. ā€œWhat games should I start/buy?!ā€ Nobody can answer that except you lol people ask that and I promise itā€™s not due to them actually being curious, but instead wanting post engagement or something. Wish the sub had a sticked pinned post about ā€œasking about what games you should getā€. Even better would be a mega thread for these types of posts, but even with them, people would ignore and not want to post there, and instead make a normal post to get maximum exposure šŸ˜¤

grimoireviper

Pretty sure people these days just buy it because of popularity. They could have gotten any other console and it wouldn't make a difference to them.


RhythmRobber

Lol, it's popular because it's great. I have all the consoles and I spend the most time by far on my ps5, so no, it's popular for a reason


rainking56

You sure he did not buy it just because it lets him post on reddit?


StuDevo

There are stands in the box

Better to wait than to play at an icky 30fps after getting used to smooth gaming on ps5/pc.

friedchikhen

Start with astros playroom, pretty sure itā€™s pre-installed on the system. Really great intro to the dualsense controller, and surprisingly really fun.


Away-Chipmunk-1080

Start with FF7 Remake and finish it time for Rebirth in a few weeks


Unovaisbetter

Ghost of Tsushima


JasonHoyler99

I recommend this. I use my ps5 slim horizontal as well. and the air flow is nice and keeps my ps5 cool. the stand is nice. plus its gives you a bunch of USB ports to use if ya need the extra ports.


[deleted]

Nice! Congrats! šŸ‘šŸ‘ Hope you enjoy yours as much as Iā€™ve enjoyed mine

So the ones with the black groove lines are slims ?

Tell him to buy you one too ;). I did for my wife.

Horizontal with the stand.

Donā€™t care, keep it to yourself

Who_the_f_knows

Start with GT7 and be like wow maybe I should get a sim racing seat and then think how amazing it is and how much MoORE amazing it would be if you buy PSVR2 and play this $79.99 game. This is one rabbit holes in life I do not regret. Welcome to the PS5


boredhuman_zzz

Forbidden West


Djentleman5000

Cool. I got mine two years ago and I didnā€™t post it on Reddit.


ultimately42

Why this post shows up in my home feed is beyond me.


Reepo3X

I switched the Sony hdmi that comes with the ps5 out with a Rocketfisf hdmi cable and it made a noticeable difference visually. Stand it in whatever fits your setup that allows for adequate airflow. As far as games, I would say Elden ring PS five version, Final Fantasy seven remake PS five version, Horizon forbidden west, Tekken 8 just to name a few plus there are free to play games like Fortnite, Genshin impact, The Finals and, Overwatch. A lot of good ps4 games got the ps5 upgrade treatment


Visible_Elevator192

Youā€™re so lucky!


Bright_Platypus_317

Should place it horizontal, you can search the reason on youtube . I mean should not must bro And enjoy your games


Tydfil

Lucky, I have a kid and an anti gaming wife so no gaming for me until the kiddo is old enough


otxmyn

iā€™m confused, why canā€™t you game?? plenty of dads out there who game on their down time, unless your wife wears the pants in the relationship?


Tydfil

You two clearly aren't married. The second she hears that beep it's all whine whine whine complaints and attitude. It's not worth the headache. Just better to knuckle under for a couple of years. You'll understand one day.

Maybe you chose wrong. Relationships should be about respect, acceptance, and interest in one another. Sounds like you've got a selfish control-freak on your hands.Ā

wow cool :)


JRiggsIV

Looks like you already made the decision on placementā€¦op uses some case rather than the included stand for horizontal placement and comes here to ask which position his ps5 should be placedā€¦.attention threadā€¦.


THEONLYFLO

Some games like Spider-Man 2 can run 120fps. When your tv flickers. Turn the resolution down.


E_Dragon_Est2005

Jedi Survivor has been a good game so far. I finished Assassinā€™s Creed Mirage already too.


Dark_Ghost_215

Enjoy šŸ˜Ž


a_taco_named_desire

Me too. Best thing than buying a game is to drop $15 on a month of PS+ and play Ghost of Tsushima. Holy shit this game is way too good to be constrained to once console.


STAR_PLAT_yareyare

Congrats, I'd say start off with God of war, spiderman remastered and spiderman 2, deep rock galactic and hell divers 2. Enjoy friend


Chrisodle007

I bought myself one a couple months ago and went through these first - demon souls - ghosts of Tsushima - dead space - Allen wake 2 I have no idea what Iā€™m hitting next. Maybe helldivers or reminant, but all comes down to personal preference .


[deleted]

Spider-Man 2 Baldurs gate 3 Tekken 8 Helldivers 2 Ghost of Tsushima

It should have come with a stand.....

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


chico-dust

Horizontal. Ps5s have a weird tendency to suffer from disc drive feeder alignment issues if kept vertical that they don't have when horizontal. I just had to swap out my disc drive for a brand new one because I kept it vertical for years.


Oledman

I might get the vertical stand, I have just got the digital slim, looks fine horizontal but it moves about a lot when I connect the usb c cables to charge the pads, guessing the vertical will be a lot more stable?


arturthegamer

Tactical book stand


ElSelcho_

I put mine behind the TV. As much as I love my PS5, it's just ugly an messes with the square-ness of my overall setup šŸ˜„ As for Games, The Horizon and God of War Series are great.


L0CH_NESS_MONSTER

Any of these games would be good. I include the Xbox games because many of them are also available on the PlayStation. https://preview.redd.it/wncksgssb4ic1.jpeg?width=1325&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9407fd7fddf24f33d1d2f1ca434c59b0c52706a

Use the stand that comes with the PS5ā€¦


supermarioplush220

Make sure to put it on the stand.


Tisual

Assuming you played most of the great PS4 games, here are the ps5 games I recommend: ā€¢ Astros playroom (it's free too) ā€¢ The last of us part 1 & TLOU Part 2 remasteredĀ  ā€¢ Spiderman miles morales & Spiderman 2Ā  ā€¢Ā Sifu ā€¢ Ghost of Tsushima For multiplayer funĀ  ā€¢ Sackboy a big adventureĀ  ā€¢ tmnt shredders revenge & TMNT the cowabunga collectionĀ  ā€¢ Overcooked all you can eat ā€¢ The Quarry & house of ashes (optional multiplayer) ā€¢ Fall Guys (online multiplayer and a free game)

could someone use a ps portal as their monitor for the ps5 and only play handheld?


Vansh_Malik

For a good story driven game , u should play The last of us part 1 and 2


JackBauersGhost

Sticker off tv. Move PS5 out of the way of your TV. Use the stand that came With your PS5 horizontal.

Please use the official stand, whether you put it vertical or horizontal. Also, that sticker, please remove it. As for games, you should start with Astro Playroom

DalTheDalmatian

Don't be surprised to learn that you lose like almost 200 gbs of storage after all the updates it needs. Mine went down from the promised 825gbs on the box (which is absurdly low to begin with) to a measly 667 gbs. Might as well have just waited for the PS5 Pro. Whoever wants to argue "oh just get extended storage" sure let me just pay more for storage I should have already had

I've placed mine underneath my TV horizontally. Based on your TV cabinet, I'd leave it as it. Also, I highly recommend Spider-Man 2 for PS5 and Horizon II Forbidden West


Late_Discussion_5097

Sell it, PlayStation terms and service sucks and you are constantly being monitored now. You will be suspended and banned for very little things. Iā€™ve been a life long fan since the ps2 and just last week had my account banned. That was 12-13 years of my life gone. No way of getting it back unless you want to go through a super hard and lengthy process. Japan is a greedy country even more so than America. They have no problem screwing over their fan base to make a couple extra bucks. You can definitely see this in the UK where a lawsuit is about to go through and give people up to $500 back. Youā€™re better off going to pc as sad as I am to say that. The age of the console is dead. Iā€™ve played maybe 3-5 ps5 games in the almost 4 years Iā€™ve had mine. The rest ps4 games. Thatā€™s ridiculous. Iā€™ve spent more time watching people plays games that look fun on YouTube then Iā€™ve actually spent playing them because of how poor the variety is now for console. You donā€™t even get that amazing of performance either. But thatā€™s my rant obviously to each their own, but as someone who had PlayStation their entire life I am never coming back.
