My PS5 is dead.
I turned it on and went through set up, played half hour of Astro bot and installed some games (Miles, God of War, Days Gone). Then turned off the system (full off, not rest mode) and left for a few hours.
When I come back I go to turn it on via the Dualsense. Nothing. Okay, try the power button. Nothing. Maybe I've had a power trip, check the breaker, is fine. Everything else in the house is fine.
Okay, try a different power socket, nope. Try my PS4 Pro figure 8 power cord, still no.
I guess I'm taking it back to EB in the morning and going without my PS5 for a few months. Fuck. I just ordered a few more games too.
Worst thing is my Miles disc is stuck inside and there is no tutorial for manual eject, I can only find ones on PS4, so I better get my game back!
Anyone else having issues? I thought that reviewers PS5 bricking was like one in a million, so damn did I catch bad luck.
Damn the Dualsense is cool, what I got to use of it at least.
Edit: Excuse my videography and wires, but heres a video:
Edit: Thought I might also add while I was briefly using it, it was very cool and quiet besides the whir of the Miles disc installing. Before turning it off I put the backside of my hand along the vents and it wasn't hot at all. Barely warm even.
