Literally barely any games that can't be played on ps4 or Xbox one.

This ps5 almost feels like a waste of 500 bucks

My theory is that there was no reason to make a new generation of consoles

This is how microsoft and to a certain extent sony see it. With proprietary hardware more so being a thing of the past and the future being game pass or total bazinga shit like cloud streaming.
