True, there will not be a significant decrease in cheating. The main savings will be in cost to the company by dropping support for a release pipeline.

Literally never had the need to disable defender or change anything about my Windows install. Driver support is far better on Windows than Linux.

It's not that it's hard, it's that it's not engaging or fun. The early/mid game is where most of the action happens and the end game is when you spend 40+ turns rolling enemy cities with your tank armies.

My new favorite is a hotel tax I just saw today which conveniently isn't included in the room rate.

Prime video could absolutely get worse, don't kid yourself.

Free 2 day shipping

Uhh yes of course. I literally said the only reason I pay for prime is the 2 day shipping, prime video is just an added benefit I guess.

I've actually been surprised but how many gems I've found in games with a 70% rating or a 82% rating. Sometimes ratings can be impacted by feelings about a company or a media incident when the actual game is rock solid.

Steam is the 800 lb gorilla in the PC gaming sector. It sort of is the biggest offender as far as Poland's argument is concerned.

True but it won't be comparable to the console hardware. Has anyone done a cost/performance analysis of the PS5 Pro? Most of the time the cost is subsidized into the licensing fees involved in order to sell PS5 games.

I feel like social media just loves to jump on the hate bandwagon, fortunately the real world is nothing like this.

Innovation has peaked? Didn't we just get AI? Is that not one of the largest innovations to occur in recent time?

You could put in a support ticket explaining your situation. It would probably get resolved as this was an honest mistake.

Do you understand why new graphics cards make sense? Or why a new CPU makes sense?

I try to block communities discussing politics, cringe memes and Linux. I have about 50 blocked at the moment.

I thought this discussion was about Sony continuing to invest in the console ecosystem, not specifically for people who already had a gaming PC.

I do agree support is getting better quickly but it still has a ways to go, at least to match the compatibility of consoles.

Sounds like the warning label is about all they will do. Guess it's one of those situations where if you ignore the label or don't read it you might be penalized?

Why is that odd?

That doesn't make you a global elite, it makes you obedient to the global elite. Well according to this FL nutbag.

What about Comcast?

To me it's worth it. I order a ton of Amazon, unfortunately it's usually the best option to find niche items for my hobbies that can't be found locally.

The problem I've always run into is steam big picture, games with launchers, resolution issues, display scaling for large screens (more rare now), no Dolby Atmos, poor HDR support, and general difficulties for other family members. Consoles are just far far more consistent with the experience than PCs, currently at least.

Oh my bad, yes we were (I brought it up lol) comparing consoles and PCs. You are correct.

🤮

I take any good things back that I said about the game. I thought it was going to be a 5e game or something but it's just a cash grab using the licensing of DND.

No, that's steam, we don't speak bad about steam here.

Well we don't even know the specs yet so any technological improvements are speculation. Either way I think it would be out of place for the console manufacturers not to release a new model after several years. Anyone buying a PS5 for the first time may be put off by a 3 year old console and prefer a newer model.

I was always a PC gamer but now having a nice TV in the basement the console is just a more natural choice. I tried using Steam big picture among other options but it still doesn't fit as well as a console does for me. Xbox had different tiers of consoles? Guess I didn't research Xbox much and haven't had one for ages.

Honestly price isn't an issue and the reason to go PS5 over PC is the ease of use. I can't stand having to get up to use my mouse to click start game, or games that never implemented proper console support on PC for whatever reason. It's just so much easier to have working HDR, Dolby Atmos, etc on a PS5 than it is with Steam big picture on a PC. I've tried it many times and there's always some frustration with the PC on a home theater setup.

You're not wrong. It's far more powerful than any PC you can build for the same price. Everyone likes to complain on this platform, maybe more so than Reddit. Anything a company does to make money is down voted and called unreasonable.

Let's suppose you are right for a moment, can the $350 buy a case, power supply, motherboard, CPU, RAM, hard disk that is on par with the PS5? GPU is only half the equation.

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.

Not you apparently

Do you work in the corporate world? Because Microsoft Copilot is included in E3 and E5 licenses so nearly every enterprise Windows corporation is running it. Copilot is being pushed hard at our company and at a recent conference everything was about Copilot. I don't think it feels anything like Cortana, it feels exactly like ChatGPT. What you state may be true for personal users, but the real money for Microsoft is in the enterprise business.

You must be new here

Honestly I would be down for a $1500+ gaming console if it could perform close to a modern gaming PC. Not sure why they can't offer levels/tiers of the console for people who have more disposable income.

Sure, get a job working in a construction trade, IT, sales (if you are good) and you are easily making 90-110k a year not long after. Independence isn't difficult with 100k/year and not many obligations.
