But why? They are barely supporting the current hardware.
i feel like barely any good games came out on it utilizing its hardware to its potential?
I think I’ve turned my PS5 on maybe 30 times since I got it. They just hasn’t been anything released for it that I’ve been interested in basically it’s not been anything released for it.
Mine has seen some use… but its nowhere near what I was expecting when I bought it. I own it for the exclusives and while I did enjoy them (GT7, Ragnarok, Spider Man 2, Astro Bot, Death Stranding 2), I also think I could have done without them and waited for the eventual PC release. I hope Intergalactic (Naughty Dog) remedies my feeling towards the console, but so far, nothing it’s seen has been generation defining.
Most probably skipping consoles after this gen.Ghost of Yotei has been a banger so far. Otherwise, I haven’t even plugged it in for over 2 years.
And then not release a single game built for or exclusive to it until 2035. Hard pass.
Better bet your ass that Copilot will be on whatever M$ decides to push out.
So… The PS5 pro lasted for a while huh.
Three years or so.
It seems soon because it feels like barely anything came out in terms of exclusives for the PS5. Naughty Dog didn’t even come out with anything that wasn’t a remake.
Sony spent this entire generation making live service games are were DOA or failed after years of development.
People generally buy Sony consoles for their single player exclusives. It seems like that is not a factor to consider for their next console.
I’m not interested in PS6. I’m more interested in building a Steambox to avoid Windows 11.
The best situation for consumers is for games to come out on as many platforms as possible. Exclusives are cancer. It’s awesome to see less and less of them every generation.
Well for me Sony exclusive means Sony produced games, and they’ve just not released in that department. I’m PC now so its not exclusive for me anyways, but it does matter for console players choosing between Sony or Xbox. And Sony has really under delivered this gen with games from them.
Didn’t Microsoft buy up a shitton of studios- killing some of them? I wouldn’t consider exclusives a good indicator of health necessarily.
That’s been the only selling point of consoles for me. They mostly all come out on the PC now so more an observation of how Sony’s releases this gen has been really lackluster compared to previous gens.
the ps5 just came out, what do you mean
Are we over the chip shortage, what year is it!
At this point I‘m going to assume they‘ll both essentially be handheld PCs. It‘s the only device I could even imagine a market for in 2 years.
Too early. It doesn’t even feel like the current generation has really established. Just got the PS5 Pro, and don’t think it’s such a big improvement over the base model. PS6? - na thanks!
Not that the PS5 was a major upgrade to the PS4. Sure it can produce some better graphics, but the UI is such a downgrade.
I’ll never understand why they made an option to silence the beep at startup, but they push the boot up and login music through the TV when headphones are connected to a controller. That’s so much more annoying and last so much longer when you’re trying not to disturb other people in the room.
Nothing is better than the xmb on ps3. I hate the new UIs.
Nah, I’m good.
I used to say PC + Nintendo, but Switch 2 looks like enshittification caught up with Nintendo.
So just PC now.
pc and emulators
Steam Deck ftw
I can play my steam games I bought over a decade ago on any hardware. Its awesome. I just got hadies 2 as well and it works flawlessly on the SD.
And that’s just steam. I just don’t see buying an Xbox/PSehatever/switch5000. Most games come out for everything now. Who cares?
I still have stuff as far back as DOS and Win9x titles on my shelves. Sure I have to use virtual machines and emulators these days since I’m not willing to buy or hold onto old hardware but I’m still able to do this on modern PC which is the main point: freedom.
I only care about exclusives anymore which is an artificial value yep.
There are some exceptions like PS2 was my DVD movje player and PS3 was Bluray movie player and what I used Universal Media Server with back then streaming from my PC. Not just the games, but there were games too. Plus weird stuff on PSN like Trash Panic or Tokyo Jungle.
Also I refuse to pay for online play and I stuck to it.
I would have disagreed a month ago but Sonic Racing has removed my biggest reason to consider getting a Switch 2. PC really has it all. Blessed.
At the very least, the console cycles are a good indicator of when it makes sense to build a new PC.
Even if I was in the market the way they manufacturer & sell them you won’t get one for list price for the first year or two
Big mistake. They barely have games for the current gen.
They should release consoles when there’s a significant leap in hardware that devs are waiting to take advantage of. The last few console releases have been boring. Don’t get me started on not only the lack of games but the lack of new types of games. Too many remakes and remasters demanding high prices.
We’ve got tons of new types of games that have emerged over the years, but they sprout up at different levels of system requirements. The games that need the new hardware are the ones with the largest development budgets.
Too soon. I still haven’t got a PS5 yet.
