Sony says the PS5 is entering the latter stage of its life cycle

I’ve skipped this entire gen of consoles since fatherhood takes up a ton of free time.

With Xbox cutting exclusives out don’t be surprised if Sony and MS get together to co-release a console together to corner the entire video game market.

Maybe it's not selling well because there aren't enough fukking games for it.

And the games that DO come out these days are half-finished bullshyt that are bugged and need updates for a year before the game is stable. And by that time the game's life cycle is over and people have lost interest.

This shyt isn't fukkin complicated.
For 25-30 years the video game industry was great. Then in the 2010s or so, you all went to this "games as a service" model and it's been a fukkin shyt show ever since.

These a$$holes never learned that if something isn't broke you don't try to fix it.

Average gen is like 5-7 years. Seems like a non-story

Release the Pro and drop the price then I need something to play GTA 6

Generations tend to be 5-7 years and the PS5 launched in 2020 so this is expected. If there's a new console in 2027 that falls right in line with the PS4's lifecycle

There’s no games for any of these systems anymore

Just sports games every year

And part 6 of whatever franchise they still living off of

Well in reading the article, it seems that consoles are out for 5-7 years before the next one hits.

PS4 came out in Nov. 2013. PS5 came out in Nov. 2020. So we should expect the PS6 in Nov. 2027 based on that timeline.

Sounds like they should lower prices if they want to sell new consoles to projections.

Sony stans in the Arcadium were saying it was gonna overtake the PS2 it ain’t even on track to beating the PS4

Well PS4 was only “alive” for 7 years and this is going into the 4th for PS5 and I was really about to flame this until I looked it up

And this is why I stick to PC. I been looking at the top games from the ps2. ps3. ps4. & ps5 and a majority of them are available on PC and a much better expereince than console.

They'll introduce the 5pro next year as a bridge to the 6 in 2027

Coincidentally GTA6 is out next year too

My only problem was the fact that a 3rd of that life cycle included a time when it was near impossible to get one for less than double the retail price.
