My first thread on NeoGaf! Hello, everyone!
I ordered through PlayStation Direct and should have my console today (ordering from PS Direct was surprisingly smooth and bug free, recommended way to get one of these). My plan is to replace my PS4 with this thing.: game saves, backlog and all. I'm looking for some advice to hit the ground running after setting up my PS5. Asking owners on GAF seems a good way to go. Looking for things to do that I won't find in PlayStation online instructions. Things to NOT do with a new PS5 can also be super important.
Some questions :
I imagine you can transfer data from PS4 to 5 directly?
I have heard that the back compat with PS4 is strong, both discs and digital. Can the PS5 download all the digital stuff from your store Library, or do you have to go hunt it all down again? I have PS Plus so I also wonder if those Library items are available.
I am just starting to research switching from PS4 to 5 so I will have more questions I'm sure. Do's and don'ts from actual owners are gonna be great so don't be shy! Game recommendations welcome as well.
