    Hardware performance in the PS5 is roughly the equivalent of a 2070/3060 on the nvidia side, the graphics card eats up nearly all of what the PS5 costs a user alone there.
    But see I rather have something that will always outperform. Consoles can never catch up to PC's. That has always been and always will be. PC's can make games last 10x much longer then consoles when you can add mods etc to it that extends the life of a game. Consoles can never do that because consoles don't really like mods unless you mod your system which is a big no no. Plus PC has emulator programs etc if we want to play old games for free where consoles may support a few old games but charge you. That is the magic of owning a pc over console. Plus the PC community can fix issues in games where devs may have forgotten or refused to fix, can't do that on console

    I'm not sure what you're trying to say with this post though? If you're trying to argue PC is superior I don't think anyone would argue. After all you get what you pay for. But at the same time, it's better to pay for what you need. Like ... sure, a Ferrari is always better than a Toyota, but also cost a lot more. If you're someone who desire a Ferrari and have use for it and can afford it ... sure, go ahead. But for a lot of people, a Ferrari is nothing more but an excess.


    Like, I'm sure no one will turn you down if you just gift them a gaming PC for free, but most people who like to game on Console only because that's enough gaming for them, and a console is the appropriate amount of investment for what they want. You can eschew as many virtues of the PC as you want, just like someone can tell me all the greatness of a Ferrari ... it's all a moot point because I don't need it, and as such see no reason to pay through the nose for it.

    And I'm saying that as a PC guy, the "latest" console I have is a PS4 that I bought 2 years ago when the PS5 came out.

    but the thing about console is most things they are doing require a monthly upgrade for online stuff to play whereas PC doesn't have to. I just want exclusive titles to be done with it's 2023 and exclusive titles just earns them less money since they are focused on one party and not multiple

    That's ... literally have nothing to do with what I said. Also if you want to talk about "update", the PC have far more. Window update, driver update.

    Also I'm sure the dev know enough to pick a gameplan that will give them the most money, I don't think you need to worry about that on their behalf.

    well my fingers crossed when SE fails. God only knows they have done poorly in over 15 years with lackluster IP's. Look at Forspoken DOA

    And again ... this has nothing to do with the previous point. It's like you just moving from one unrelated point to another ...
