I’ve never skipped a console gen starting from Super NES, PS1 through 4 plus the Switch Oled 5 years after launch of the OG Switch
It seems like exclusives are rarer now with Sony and Xbox pushing games to PC and Nintendo spending resources on remasters. COVID made it incredibly difficult to own a PS5 and they have some disappointing exclusives as well
What do you think? Any reason to own a PS5 or PS5 pro?
I haven’t found a compelling reason to not just build a solid gaming pc, then buy a Chromecast and steam link to it.
Latency is quite low on a wired connection, I can stream 4k to my TV, and I can use an Xbox controller. You literally couldn’t tell me the difference most of the time.
I’m rocking an 11th gen Intel i9, 4060 ti, and gigabit network wired between PC <-> chromecast.
Just make sure you get the latest chromecast that can handle 4k streaming though!
Not to wire ethernet into a chromecast, you need a USB c adapter, those dongles that take in USB C power, ethernet, etc. It has a single fully functional USB c port, so you can also connect wired USB and all the jazz to it if needed.

If everything is wired, why not just use an HDMI cable?
Because most people don’t have their gaming PC in the living room.
This, my machine is in the basement inside my server rack lol.
