Holy gaming, Batman: the PlayStation 5 just dropped to its lowest price ever — $449

The PlayStation 5 is one of the greatest gaming consoles ever made, and the demand proves it. Even now, it can be tough to get your hands on one — unless you catch it on sale. Right now at Amazon, you can get the PlayStation 5 console for just $449. That's the absolute lowest price this machine has ever been, and let me speak from experience: it's worth it. If you need proof, just look up some gameplay of Final Fantasy XVI.

Capable of supporting 8K graphics at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz, this console will deliver one of the smoothest gaming experiences of your life.

With loads of new and classic titles to choose from, the PlayStation 5 is the ultimate experience for a PlayStation fan. It's the latest and greatest of the consoles, with one of the most comfortable controllers I've ever laid hands on. Pair that with support for 120fps at 4K, and you have a breathtaking gaming experience that's hard to beat.

That's not even taking into account the PlayStation Plus membership. It's optional, but signing up grants you a number of free titles each month as well as a huge library of games you can stream straight to your console. This service lets you play some of your favorite titles from yesteryear, dating all the way back to the PSOne.

It's a great purchase. I've seen used Xbox Series X on the market, but I've never seen a used PlayStation 5 for sale. Have you?

"Worth the wait," one gamer raved. "The Playstation 5 is a gaming beast! The stunning games with incredible graphics make me feel like I'm in a whole new world. And the breathtaking immersion with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers? It's like I'm really in the game, dodging bullets and feeling every explosion. Plus, the lightning speed of the custom CPU, GPU, and SSD is mind-blowing - I can't believe how fast it loads! Say goodbye to loading screens, my gaming life has been revolutionized!"

"The haptic feedback can not be placed into words, it must be experienced first hand, but if I were to try and use words for it, I would say AWESOME!!! The ps5 interface is nice. Elden ring and Devil May Cry look absolutely stunning on the system. Load times are near instant. Fully recommend," said another.

With Final Fantasy having just launched and Spider Man just around the corner, it's time to snatch up a PS5.
