Please don’t do this to me. The whole point of a console is convenience, and it’s not like you had to test for multiple platforms. You control the hardware.

Stop giving these companies your money!

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 4 points 21 hours ago

Microsoft and Sony? I mean, I get it. All major corporations are fucking monsters. But…sometimes giving those particular companies no money is pretty damn hard. Money goes into their pockets from more places than you’d expect. Also, what, are you gonna suggest some ethical indie console?

[-] gnutard@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

Well, it's your choice, I don't give either company my money. I'd suggest switching to Linux and start pirating everything.

[-] sean_lemmy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

Pirating still shows companies that their product has demand/value

You're better off switching to Indie games only to really protest the game publishers

[-] Soup@lemmy.cafe 2 points 21 hours ago

So you built your own cross compatible gaming system?

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

They have what, 3 variants of the console? Regular, Slim, Pro?

Meanwhile on PC...

[-] BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 day ago

No. They have 1 model with 2 cases. They use the same internal components, but the slim has a more compact cooling solution.

Only difference specs-wise is that the Slim has a ~1 TB SSD compared to the ~850 GB SSD

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Thank you for the correction! I thought it was like the PS3 where there was different hardware inside the different models. Well, some of them.

...but wait, if all the internals are the same size, why wasn't the regular one the size of the Slim? Is it just space from having the disc drive removed?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 day ago

They only have 2 currently.

Pro isn't out yet.

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

They're probably testing on it though

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 day ago

Probably even more so than what's currently in people's hands, based on the news article here. lol

[-] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Im a pc user, and the pc world is still a lot more complex than just "regular, slim and pro" versions. Different hardware and combinations males it a lot more complex.
You could say "low, medium and high end pc" but that means nothing as even a medium pc could have different cpu's, gpu's or even ram timings...

But yes, the different console versions is stupid

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Yes, that was my point, haha

[-] Soup@lemmy.cafe 1 points 21 hours ago

I’m sure they’ll work it out.

[-] Nighed@feddit.uk 3 points 1 day ago

Oh look, someone at Sony decided to update the AMD graphics drivers included without first testing every combination to find the specific driver that actually works.....

[-] teft@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I wonder what causes it because i updated fine and have been playing wukong with no lag.

[-] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works -2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Not all games were affected l

Edit: nvm me dumb

[-] teft@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Wukong is one of the mentioned games.

[-] hal_5700X@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

The PS5 shit show continues.

[-] Lemonparty@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

I love my PS5 🤷🏻‍♂️

[-] Trollception@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Same. I love my PS5 and have had almost no issues at all with it. I also love my PC but I use them for different purposes.

[-] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago

The last console I owned was a megadrive and I still don't feel I ever missed out on anything at all.
