Sony is fukking up. You just can't see it yet.

You know who sells the most consoles and games? Nintendo.

You know who doesn't sell their games on PC?
Nintendo.

I'm going to get a PC eventually.

I got my PS5 after 18 months of trying. I'm not selling it yet.


Sony are making day 1 GAAS coming out on PC that PlayStation owners will have to pay for online. PC owners won't.

That's what you get for blind loyalty.

Because they are:

Literally better on the PS5 in some cases.
Launch 2-3 years earlier.
Buy and play.
No waiting decades to install drivers and other nerdy nonsense.
Not worth the extra thousands you'll have to pay just to match PS5 quality.

Feel free to wait 2-3 years for higher framerate, though. PC gaming is a waste of money and time. Not a single game has taken advantage of extra PC horsepower.

Ratchet PC looks identical to the PS5 version, just has higher framerate..... For thousands of dollars more :russ:

Waste. of. time.

I get a console that cost a 3rd of the price, that plays games that work day one without a million patches to work corrrectly

And no one cares about those GAAS shyts

I can get as detailed as necessary to play a game and jump through a ton of hoops, setup configs, etc. ain't no different from what I do at work.

However, walking over to the controller, hitting the PS button and having the system start with the TV switching to the right source automatically = W.
Console gaming means I can focus on the game itself, not the setup.

The more you encapsulate and hide implementation details the better. That's what consoles do -> allow casuals to get easy access and more time in-game.

It's actually human nature.

Compare:

Prepare computer desk
Boot up computer
Close pop-ups/system notifications when OS loads
Wait for all other processes to sync up
Select program to open game
Deal with another asynchronous system interrupt
Connect controller if needed
Select game
3rd party launcher crashes game

That's more opportunity to not jump into a game.

vs

Sit on couch
See controller
Press PS button
Get into game

Don't even have to look for the TV remote to change sources.

The former probably sounds more like work and a task for a casual person.

I can step into other areas of my house and navigate menus and do the same concurrently on console.

Download all game updates directly to PS5 using Remote Play App :obama:
Come back from vacation and square everything away :win:
Wake up next morning
Play fully-updated versions of games on the console w/ zero downtime
Even if you don't want to game remotely, being able to make updates like that directly to your console is a timesaver
