I am a PC Gamer but decided to get a PS5, and I love it.
I needed to learn to use the controllers.
I needed to learn to use the controllers.
Playstation Plus was a great addition because it allowed me to get a bunch of PS4 games at no extra cost so I could learn to work with the controllers.
My daughter loved it because she could get her favorite version of COD without having to buy it again.

I call this best in class because I had purchased a less expensive brand that could only charge via a USB-C port. Well the PS5 has a USB-C port on the front. But it is not powered when the PS5 is turned off, and I didn't like having it stick out the front. And it did not come with a charging brick. The price of which would make its cost higher than the DualSense.
So I got the Sony DualSense. it comes with a charging brick so I can plug it into my power center and not have cords running around.

Like a lot of games that get a lot of hype about how awesome they are, this game becomes a little tiring after several hours. Kind of a rinse, wash, repeat type of game.
For me I prefer a little more of a challenge.

Shine 2000 lumens of brightness on driveways, sideyards and high-traffic areas with a hardwired adjustable Floodlight. Floodlight Wired connects to the Ring Bridge (sold separately) to unlock smart controls and custom combinations in the Ring App. The Ring Bridge lets you group together Ring Smart Lights and connect them to Ring doorbells and cameras. If one Ring Bridge-enabled device detects motion, it can turn on lights, activate cameras and more. With the Ring Bridge you can also link your Ring Smart Lights to select Alexa-enabled devices to turn on lights and adjust settings at the sound of your voice.
Excellent motion sensor flood. Needs to be smarter

Great motion sensor flood light. You can adjust the angle of the lights. They are very bright and can light up my driveway all the way to the street and beyond.
However, the setting in the app is supposed to tell them to turn off after 30 seconds of no motion. Sometimes it will stay on for hours.

The Ring Bridge unlocks smart controls for Ring lights. It lets Ring lights, doorbells and cameras talk to each other and work better together in the Ring App, so you can receive mobile notifications whenever motion is detected and adjust settings with your phone or tablet. With the Ring Bridge you can also group together Ring Smart Lights and connect them to Ring doorbells and cameras. If one Ring Bridge-enabled device detects motion, it can turn on lights, activate cameras and more. It also lets you connect Ring Smart Lights to Alexa-enabled devices to turn on lights and adjust settings at the sound of your voice. *One Ring Bridge supported per household. Supports approximately 50 Ring Smart Lighting devices, including Motion Sensors (dependent on usage and other factors).
Smart device, could be smarter.

The Ring Bridge seamlessly ties all your Ring Products into groups for easy access and control on your Smart Phone, tablet or computer. Requires the Ring App.
However, it could be smarter than it is.
I installed 2 Ring Floods (one with a camera) on the front of my house and a Ring bulb into my 3rd existing lantern. The Bridge via the App can turn that bulb on and off in dusk/dawn. However what would be smarter of it if I could tell that bulb to turn on and off when the floods detect motion.
Also you use the app to program the Bridge to control your devices. The settings do not always work to well. Meaning I set my floods to turn off after 30 seconds of no motion, and sometimes they will stay on for hours.
However, I do recommend this as it is a very good device and ties it all together.

I work in the middle of a large metal building w/many walls, which makes the company wifi signal very weak in my office. Can I use this to connect the ethernet cable for my computer, then add another router to provide a strong wifi signal in my office?
It should not be an issue to connect a long Ethernet cable to the switch to get a route to your computer. However, if you can get the cable all the way to your computer you would be better off

Control Standard Edition - Xbox One
From the creators of Max Payne and Alan Wake comes Control, a third-person action-adventure game combining Remedy's trademark gunplay with supernatural abilities, giving the player the ability to approach each situation in their own way. Control is set in a unique ever-changing world, juxtaposing the strange and unpredictable with the mundane. A supernatural enemy has taken possession, and you must use your unique abilities to take back Control. Welcome to the Federal Bureau of Control.
Why no release date when the release date was announced for August 27 2019. That is from multiple sources.
Does it really matter if the release day on the web site is updated right away when the release is still four month away.

There are models that support the various platforms. However, they should all have a 3.5mm jack. But I do not think you get top end sound quality via the 3.5mm.
