The PS5 was such a disappointing mispurchase. I was so excited to finally get one... It just doesn't feel like any major improvement over a PS4. It is just gathering dust except for the occasional Blu-ray movie.
The promise with new consoles used to be "look at our new console, it has a new controller, a new philosophy of game design, AND better graphics! that will be $250 please!" and now, new consoles are like "we haven't changed our game design philosophy, menu UI, or the controller in 20 years, but now we have a new lighting effect that you won't even be able to make out because we've added so much motion blur to our titles to hide the poor frame rates! that'll be $700 please!"
All for the low low price of most of your money, most of your spare time, and most of "the best years of your life"
wow, hold me back.
I think this was my last console, I'll return to PC.
Hate when this shit is pulled, wonder if it om the pro. Imagine paying pro prices for unstoppable ads.
This is also directly targetted to people giving additional money. If you are connected to the internet you are likely, or previously, a subscriber. If you are not paying a sub you are more likely to disconnect and not be affected.
Build a gaming rig on Newegg credit, pay it off interest free in 12-24 months depending on current deals.
Ironic.
It was only a matter of time.
Shame on console
Noticed this last night. Shadow of the Tomb Raider, a game old AF has advertisement for Merch.
Jedi Survivor adre rises the EA gaming pass or whatever.
