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?

Your comment remind me how many games just wouldn’t run on my PC or how install would break my OS. Maybe I had no idea what I was doing. But PC gaming back in the days was very tricky. It got better in recent years.

I really mostly play on PC. But PC master race people are very snobish. Console gaming is a very important part of the market for very good reason.

What PC game broke your OS? That’s mad.

It’s easy to be snobbish when you’re right ¯\(ツ)

PC gaming isn’t that expensive right now anyway, depending on the level of performance that you want. I have a computer presumably without a dedicated graphics processor that runs Fallout 4 well. It will run Fallout 3 at consistent 60 fps at 720p.

Depending on how new the game is and whether or not you turn down the graphics, it’s not that expensive to get a gaming PC.

Eh, depends imo.

Civilization? PC all the way. Ratchet & Clank? God of War? I had a lot of fun playing them on consoles. IDK whether they would have worked as well on PC.

Knights of the Old Republic? I played on PC in spite of the awful UI port from console mode.
