It sold almost 5m more than the PS5 in this same amount of time. With one less holiday season, no less. Why lie?

I wish there was a word to describe my disgust at how soulless this is. It also applies to the meme gifs they use of GoW and TLOU characters. I imagine this is how boomers felt towards gays.
that's to get the kids confidence like "hey I work at playstation I could get you some stuff if you like"
at least that's what I think it is, which is probably the main reason why Sony fired him after the video got public
>playstation console exclusive* >*also available on pc
The game has never actually been said to be PS5 exclusive. And multiple statements at various times have been made, explicitly claiming the game won't be PS5 exclusive.
So why has the game been listed on this list since the creation of the page, remaining there to this day?
It hasn't, actually. There are obsessives that re-add games to the categories repeatedly or others who defend it with a wait and see. Currently, the page just got like 12 games because someone's shoved the category into a number of games again, except this time they're pocketing them in the page redirects, which makes it harder for other editors to notice the changes and correct them. This also is being used to add games that don't have pages and games that aren't even exclusive on technicalities. Welcome to fanboyism.
>Currently, the page just got like 12 games
Oh. The last time I checked the page it was back to 5, after having had 9 games listed, then having that reverted. But I guess it's been 12+ for some time now.
Not really 'some time'. It only took a few moments to find the editor -yes, it's one dude- who's done it this time. January 12th. One of them has had multiple attempts put to it, but another editor has been quick to revert that one.
oh really? I tried checking the page's history, but even though I went really far back, the list only changed from 13 entries to 12, even though I am almost positive the list was 5 or something back then.
Is the history log kind of fricked somehow?

No. The page itself is automatically updated with content. Games/articles that are given the PlayStation 5 games/Playstation 5 only games category will appear in the list. It takes more effort than editing the actual category page itself if you want to manipulate it. It doesn't stop people from trying, though.
Funny how PS5 is selling so well even though all its games are on PC. Almost like no one wants to build a $3000 PC to play an unoptimized console port 6 months after release.
You asked, I answered. DMC5+FF7R have exclusive content. Stranger of Paradise + Elden Ring run like shit on PS4 from all accounts.
What games have you played recently?
No, we play the few good games that came out per year with better framerates and resolutions than your console can handle, and while we're waiting for the next good game we emulate the best games from your previous consoles with improved resolution and framerates and mods to fix various issues they had on release.
I always give up on Skyrim after installing a few mods because I realize no matter how many layers of mods I put on top, it's still fricking Skyrim underneath it all.
>No, we play the few good games that came out per year with better framerates and resolutions than your console can handle
The results of the steam hardware survey determined that to be a lie
>LGBT exclusives >says Snoy with his woke games on the Troon Approved Cucksole™
LOL
this is where you either ignore this completely because you have no rebuttal or where you cope and deny reality (as your troon playerbase does daily)
>mentally ill enough to seek this information out >he thinks 1 study of this, with an unspecified margin of error, is the end all be all
I bet you my last 10 games played are better than whatever it is mentally ill homosexuals like you play. Wanna bet?
Ah, so it's "cope and deny reality". A classic, and one that your trooned out brethren are expert out.
Better luck next time you troony no gaems Snoy homosexual
lmao
>last 10 games played >Snoy machine doesn't even have 5 exclusives
LMAO
we know what mentally ill troony Snoys play, though.
It's Fortnite and CoD

Why does Ganker think if a game isn't exclusive, it doesn't exist? I'm not a Sonygay, I actually have an Xbone, but with GPU prices right now, I don't even think it's a terrible idea to own a console.
t. still barely chugging along with an Nvidia 1600.
Yakuza, DMC, all souls games, my entire PS4 library, Digimon, Final Fantasy, Dragon Ball, God of War, Infamous, Hades, Street Fighter, literally any series you can imagine that isn't bing bing wahoo I play on PS5.
>tfw skipped ps4 pro and my original ps4 got bought for $500 because it was at the fw that let it get hacked
ps5 was a pretty easy choice tbh, I just wish more games used the adaptive triggers, that shit's really cool.
I like watching snoys and tendies fight eachother while I play multiplats on my Series X. Not claiming I'm better, I just know my place and like watching the big guys fight.
>ps5 turned 2 in early november >still calling it "30 million in 2 years!" >when it's actually over a month and a half extra, a month and a half that includes black friday and christmas
This, ps4 also launched at a similar timeframe, and was at ~29.5 million at the real 2 year mark, and nearly 35 million after black friday and christmas.
People shitting on this are moronic >Muh switch >Muh PS4
Those consoles didnt get fricking destroyed by the chink flu like PS5/XSX. Its a miracle and impressive those consoles are at even 10m. Frick even now its hard in some countries to find a PS5 in its retail price, there arent even any exclusives for now using those consoles because people are too poor in this economy to afford one lmao.

Imagine for a moment it's 1994 and nintendo had to water down SNES games to also run on NES because nobody owns the fricking thing.

well, as always it was easy to shut the Snoys up and cause them to slink away to their next attempt to consolewar in some other thread (that they will also fail at)
GG EZ, PC Chad out
Who buys these? how long do you think this console generation will last? 20 years? or will people buy next new things while last new thing still only has 3 games and repeat the cycle
Around 2025 Nintendo is probably finally releasing the Switch 2, which might very well reach PS4 levels of performance (2013 console).
If that happens massive amounts of Gen 8 games will be ported to it since devs can use it as a cheap way to rake in more cash during these moronic long dev cycles.
Basically every single game released since 2010 until today, including the upcoming year. Every "Gen 9" game is also released on Gen 8, which makes the PS5 more like a PS4 Pro+.
Completely double shits on the genetic/nature argument by far. With a generation of 'acceptance', propagation by shame would have screeched to a halt, driving the shit to quick, clear extinction. Of course, that was always a bullshit position. People disregard and ignore abuse and disease statistics as if they don't count anymore. Indeed, I've seen people argue against more strict checks for male on male sexual contact/homos in terms of blood donation as though that weren't the most obvious and reasonable thing in the world. What a shit show.

Yeah it works great on my 2021 MBP, I double the SMT V rendering resolution. Also a neat technicality is that there is literally no CPU emulation, it can just pipe through the commands as if it was the native CPU.

PS5 only has 5 exclusive games, but there's multiplatform Japanese games that skip out on Xbox going to Switch, PC, and PS4+5.
Xbox is a complete joke no matter the way you spin it.
I miss when Ganker wasn't just twitter threads and console war idiocy. Please go back to normal social media. Just enjoy playing video games for the love of god.
Hold up >ps5 was over 17 million at the end of 2021 >Sony claimed they would sell 18 million in 2022 >they're now celebrating about 30 million at the end of 2022 >which would put them at 13 million for the year
Why are they celebrating?
I know, but that only makes it worse. They were at ~19 million by the end of the fiscal year, which means Q4, the historically weakest quarter for console sales, doesn't just need to sell 5 million to reach this prediction, it needs to hit 7 million, which they couldn't even do for christmas and black friday.
Don't worry. It isn't much of an exaggeration. The last exclusive title released for the thing was in June of 2021. Over a year and a half of nothing and a half a year of what constitutes less than what the PS3 managed on release day.
But did you ever consider that you have an actual illness? Like that your consolewarrioring about exclusives is a mental illness and 99,99% of the rest of the world doesnt share your illness?
Not really, because I don't console war. I just don't deny the reality of Sony's actual software incentive for their latest console. I also don't engage in projection, much less to the laughable degree that you clearly take it to.
>I just don't deny the reality of Sony's actual software incentive for their latest console

You clearly are obsessed, as you're lashing out and going out of your way to try and damage control reality for this so-called plastic toy. You're also lying even by your own expanded metric of 'currently playable games' to do it. The PS4 for example has over 3,000 native titles, and the PS3 over 2,500 while the PS5 has a bit over 500.

Not at all. Anyone who isn't a desperate shill understands the 'no games' claim is in reference to exclusives. You're being disingenuous to grasp at anything you can and deflect the fact of the matter. I also didn't say it has no exclusives, fanbot.

Halo Infinite is not an exclusive. MS has left the exclusive model a generation ago and neither them or their fans pretend otherwise. Deflecting to MS doesn't change the reality of Sony's circumstances.

The PS4's list is far bigger, has a handful of games that can't be played forward through BC- 6 titles. Even with BC, the PS5 is hard to defend on the software front if you can find a PS4 or already have one.
There were more sales than ever because there were more systems available than ever. I didn't buy one. I'm not buying a piece of shit that won't last even five years.
Tell me when they fix the thermal paste issue. I’m not buying this until they fix it. I like to keep my consoles for 20 years. You never know I might be playing this system in 2040….BUT with the lack of exclusive games as well that’s not happening anyway.
What they really fricked up was the distribution. They should've made an online queue and only let people sign up who had a PSN account before 2020 and only one console per person. The whole scalping business made them lose out on a shit ton of software sales and it was a PR nightmare.
Spoken like a moron. They can't control what a person does with the console after they've purchased it and locking sales to online would have pissed off retailers

Correct me if I'm wrong, but retailers are the morons who sold their whole stock to a single person if they rolled in at the right moment. They didn't deserve to distribute them if they're doing such a shit job of it.

Please go away you fricking idiot, you clearly don't understand how business works if you think pissing off the people who distribute your products is a good idea
it wasn't affected by COVID either because devs receive their development box like 2 years at the very least before the console launches. Do these people think devs start making games on launch day?
And covid actually had a positive boost on the gaming industry. Many tech manufacturers and software developers set personal best numbers in 2020 and 2021. During that stretch of forced seditary lifestyles people naturally looked for fun entertaining things to do at home. In the gaming industry Nintendo benefited the most. Everyone looked towards them for their gaming fix. Animal Crossing was a worldwide hit and Switch sales skyrocketed. On the other hand Sony's numbers plummeted. FF7R and TLOU2 launched in that same covid window as Animal Crossing, and they were apparently uneffected, and arguably negatively effected seeing as those games had abysmal sales. This is because sony doesn't sell fun. Nobody thinks their games are fun. Nobody desires what Sony thinks video games should be
>final fantasy and TLOU are just 2 random literally who IPs and their performance in the market doesn't really have any significance to sony
Big reach but ok
The funniest thing about Sony and COVID is that not only did they not see the same boost everyone else got under the pandemic. When the pandemic waned off, they still got fricked by people moving back to normal life.
They got double fricked by COVID. While it was one of the best things in ages for most of everyone else.
Jesus christ the amount of reaching you morons do is hilarious sometimes. Yep, the news reporting the chip shortage that affected multiple industries was all a lie manufactured by Sony.
The chip shortage was affecting production on processes that went into cars. That's 14nm stuff at best, it doesn't get used for gen 9 console hardware.
Why do you keep insiting on digger your whole deeper? The two industries most impacted were consuner electronics and automative. Now tell me, what do you think a game console would fall under moron?
Is Switch a gaming console? Didn't switch and nintendo achieve record performing years in software and hardware during covid and the chip shortages? Eagerly awaiting your reply!

I implied it was real because it was real. You have provided no proof beyond your own delusion to back up your claims while the news and Sony's official statements back my own. Now if yoy have nothing else, I accept your concession

>I implied it was real because it was real
No you said it was real because consoles were affected. Which is false. Switch sold more during the chip shortage. Sony just fricked up and couldn't source their materials as well as Apple and Microsoft because sony is run by literal morons. When you wake up late and are the last one in line for a bagel and they are sold out, that doesn't mean there is a bagel shortage.

Yes, Sony fricked up because 2 companies with deeper pockets than them bought chip priority. Clearly they should have just outbid microsoft and apple instead. Fricking moron

Switch benefitted during covid because they already had warehouses full of Tegra chips because they planned ahead and had an excellent relationship with Tegra. Sony was cheap and probably strong arming chip manufacturers on their brand name and tried to get budget deals because "do you know who you're talking too!!!". Must not have gone well because immediately after they were gutting their heatsink and raising MSRP on their consoles. Remind me, when did Microsoft and Nintendo gut their heatsinks and raise their prices? They are a console manufacturer and surely faced the same "adversity" as sony in 2020

Huh? I never said those words. Maybe you replied to the wrong post?
>Some experts blame the chip shortage in the automotive industry on the rapidly increasing demand for consumer electronics, particularly during the pandemic. >Desktop PCswere formerly experiencing a slow death with sales of laptops and mobile devices. >In a recent report citing Canalys, the worldwide PC market posted an increase of 55% in just the first quarter of this year—the highest it has been over the last 10 years. This is after the pandemic forced students to adopt virtual learning and employees to work from home.
Your source states that the problems with automotive may be due to production switching to chips needed for consumer electronics, which reached a 55% increased amount of sales.
So you've actually just sourced there have been more PC and Console electronics available than ever.
>PS5 is the "fastest selling console" for its first 10 months
YEAH TAKE THAT homosexualS WOOO SONY WON >PS5 loses that fastest-selling record to Switch and GBA
w-w-well that doesn't count because the pandemic and the parts crunch, even though the latter began only very recently >PS5 beats the Switch in January 2022 sales
HAH HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT NOW THE SWITCH IS DEAD AND THE PS5 IS GOING TO SELL SO MUCH >sales regulate back to the Switch beating the PS5 since the December holiday season saw all of Nintendo's Switch stock depleted
n-n-now hold on, next generation consoles continue to face stock issues you guys >PS5 beats the Switch one week in Famitsu charts by 200 units and Jim Ryan brags about the PS5 supply issues being a thing of the past
BTFO HOLY SHIT THE PS5 SWEEP BEGINS NOW >PS5 gets back to getting its ass handed to it, with it not even hitting 6-digit sales in the two-week holiday tracking period in Japan and being just announced to be about 5 million behind the Switch and PS4 at this point in their lives for worldwide sales
um... covid again? please?
>We'll just lie to our fanbase yeah that's the trick >ignore they have no games for 2 years >ignore the diaper leak >ignore the price increase during a recession >we'll just lie
>but what the limited supply did was making the demand seem much greater than it actually was.
Made worse by Sony trying to make lemonade in the wrong way with the heavy scalping by doing nothing about it for a long time, because it made the demand seem unreal and gave them some real pretty-sounding headlines.
I honestly wonder why morons think a company can fight scalping because yoy can't. You can't control what a person does with a product after you've sold it to them. Unless the government passes an anti scalping law, that is jack shit stopping the practice. But this is Ganker a board filled with gays that let a company bamed Sony live rent free in their head and endlessly seethe about it so expecting logical arguments is pointless
>I honestly wonder why morons think a company can fight scalping because yoy can't.
Besides having their own vetted distribution from the beginning, which actually did help when they started doing it way later? Or threatening chain retailers with cutting off future Playstation product supply if they don't put in good faith efforts to combat scalping (since half the issue with PS5 scalping was retailers just not giving a shit because the loss on the hardware wasn't coming out of their end) and taking more business to a rival chain?
Jesus you are a fricking idiot and I wish morons like you would stop pretending you have any inkling of what the frick you are talking about. A company like Sony needs a retailer more than the retailer needs Sony. They buy the product, they cover the loss, they do the promotion ect. Sony would be absolute retrds to make any sort of threats of product witholding because it would hurt them more than the retailer. Please shut the frick up and go away. You are stupid, not smart so stop pretending you have some semblence of intelligence because you do not.
>30 million >But software sales are so ass that they have to make PS4 and PC ports to make money
More like 25 million at best since scalpers get them like no tomorrow.
Instead basically 90% of the "gen 9" games are gen 8. The Switch 2 running gen 8 games is going to obliterate this entire generation because devs can get quick bucks tossing all of their gen 8 (including 2025 gen 8) games on it. Dev production duration are like 7 years so they're definitely going to hire porting studios.
>he doesn't know about Microsoft going ahead with the deal after EU and UK approve it
The FTC's case is fricking toast, especially if they try to take it to federal court. There's nearly unanimous bipartisan support for the buyout in the mainstream American political sphere (with the only two exceptions being campaign-socialist homosexuals Bernie "No Refunds" Sanders and Elizabeth "Whiteskin" Warren, which resulted in them being grilled on implicitly disapproving of the Activision developer unionization that Microsoft plans on approving after taking over).
You going to be in for some disappointment microshill if you think it'll be that simple. Microsoft was bluffing and they knew it. Thats why they're trying to play nice now because they know they're about to get buttfricked
No that will be another checkmark for me being correct, just like how I predicted PS5 selling worse than PS4 and Switch, and the Switch selling over 100 million units when we found out it was hackable day one, and also how I predicted Sony going 3rd party before Nintendo. Sony barely profits from hardware. If they could they would axe all manufacturing from their business model and operate entirely as a storefront or subscription service. The future of sony will be just an app, no hardware, no physical software. And by then you'll be stuck fanboying over a glorified cloud streaming service preaching to nobody "SEE I TOLD YOU SONY WASN'T DEAD!" as I play God of War on my Super Switch and Series X Plus. Cap it.
Look I want a PS5 but I also want games. I would first play bloodborne before GoW: Ragnarok. So what’s the point of buying one if I have everything else I want on PC?
Umm sweaty this is a shill thread, yes console owners are part of respective and overlapping cults, yes you should convince me to buy it, unless you literally can’t do it because only a cult worshipper would buy this product religiously with no selling point.
It's not a shill thread. It's a PCgays seethe at PS5 for selling well even though it "doesn't have games" thread. You are mad that people like consoles for their simplicity and your MUH GAMES argument never worked.
Do whatever you want with you money. I won't be using mine to build an expensive meme PC.
I'm just going to buy a digital PS5 in 2024 to play the very few games I'd care about. Yes I know digital prices but tbh I only ever bought like 5 or 6 PS4 games in the entire life of the PS4 and I got it day 1.

Winning so much, that Sony has to port some of their exclusives to PC.
Glad you are still enjoying our leftovers
They did it to boost their sales to not disappoint investors.
>t. someone who saw their quarterly reports, after being #1 on Steam they didn't exceed any expectation at all
>in snoygger this means if it wasn't for PC digital sales their profits would have been reduced heavily
>Still going strong, after 2 years of not having games
>After 2 years
For context that's 3 Xmas's due to how it's landed.
I've yet to see one in person.
>30 million
>after 2 years
Sounds pathetically low
Switch only sold 19m in that time
why bring up Nintendo? take your meds
Because Switch , PS5s biggest competitor, sold much less than 30m in 2 years.
Actually it sold like 40m
It sold almost 5m more than the PS5 in this same amount of time. With one less holiday season, no less. Why lie?
https://web.archive.org/web/20190623025553/https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/finance/hard_soft/
>Why lie?
Because Sony is their religion.
You should go to the next quarter given PS5 has been out for 27 months
Switch isn’t a competitor.
Anon, why would you lie about something that can be proven false, with less than a minute of googling?
>b-b-buh nintendo
Not only are you cringe, but you're also wrong.
snoys are pathetic
it has already beaten most nintendo consoles in lifetime sales
>2 out of 7 is "most"
Snoy education
We did it bros... we consoomed...
I wish there was a word to describe my disgust at how soulless this is. It also applies to the meme gifs they use of GoW and TLOU characters. I imagine this is how boomers felt towards gays.
>first console ever to raise the price without offering any extra features or games
>gets rewarded for it
bravo sony
Also raises prices for games while not having any.
Glad I didn't listen to Ganker and bought it at launch.
>Still going stro-
Demon's Souls was released on PS3 too, so it's not a PS5 exclusive
um sweaty, the new god of war is on PS5 🙂
I know you're joking, but it's also on the PS4, so it doesn't belong on the list. That's how all the "x-console only" lists on wikipedia work.
What is that pedo PS5 shirt guy up to nowadays?
he got fired and after that no one knows
I love how the Snoy brand is a dog whistle for real pedophiles
The dude was an exec for Sony and decided to just broadcast that fact on his tshirt
that's to get the kids confidence like "hey I work at playstation I could get you some stuff if you like"
at least that's what I think it is, which is probably the main reason why Sony fired him after the video got public
Imagine sucking that dude's dick for a PS5. And then the PS5 doesn't even get any games.
ACK
Now make the same image but for Xbox exclusives.
>playstation console exclusive*
>*also available on pc
The game has never actually been said to be PS5 exclusive. And multiple statements at various times have been made, explicitly claiming the game won't be PS5 exclusive.
So why has the game been listed on this list since the creation of the page, remaining there to this day?
>So why has the game been listed on this list since the creation of the page, remaining there to this day?
consolewarring Wiki editors. yes, really.
It hasn't, actually. There are obsessives that re-add games to the categories repeatedly or others who defend it with a wait and see. Currently, the page just got like 12 games because someone's shoved the category into a number of games again, except this time they're pocketing them in the page redirects, which makes it harder for other editors to notice the changes and correct them. This also is being used to add games that don't have pages and games that aren't even exclusive on technicalities. Welcome to fanboyism.
>Currently, the page just got like 12 games
Oh. The last time I checked the page it was back to 5, after having had 9 games listed, then having that reverted. But I guess it's been 12+ for some time now.
Not really 'some time'. It only took a few moments to find the editor -yes, it's one dude- who's done it this time. January 12th. One of them has had multiple attempts put to it, but another editor has been quick to revert that one.
oh really? I tried checking the page's history, but even though I went really far back, the list only changed from 13 entries to 12, even though I am almost positive the list was 5 or something back then.
Is the history log kind of fricked somehow?
No. The page itself is automatically updated with content. Games/articles that are given the PlayStation 5 games/Playstation 5 only games category will appear in the list. It takes more effort than editing the actual category page itself if you want to manipulate it. It doesn't stop people from trying, though.
Funny how PS5 is selling so well even though all its games are on PC. Almost like no one wants to build a $3000 PC to play an unoptimized console port 6 months after release.
sony pc ports are really good though and if it can run on a shitstation 4 you can run it on a pc built in the last 10 years
Then why is PS5 selling so well? Why aren't people just building PCs instead? Oh it's because it's gay and inconvenient? Oh okay.
The fact that they have Astro's Playroom on there is hilarious. It's like listing the 3DS AR cards as an exclusive. Fricking pathetic
I don't get it what are they playing?
Their tattered dignity.
Netflix
Genshin impact supposedly runs better on a ps5 than pc
Fifa
Probably PS4 games.
Fifa, Madden, GTAV, Genshin, Fortnite, Minecraft
You know how Sony was so afraid of the MS/Activision merger because they know how much they need COD to keep idiots to fund the platform?
COD, Fortnite, and fifa MTX are how sony gets lots of their money
Themselves
Genuine question to PS5 owners: what the frick do you even play?
My friend has one and he plays PS4 games and Gran Turismo.
I beat Ragnarock and I finished my backlog 3 months ago so now I'm waiting for new games.
DMC5
FF7R
MGSV
Stranger of Paradise
Nioh 1+2
Elden Ring/other From games
Re2make
EDF 5
Crisis Core
Have been my recently played
Jesus Christ, that's a lot of PS4 games.
You asked, I answered. DMC5+FF7R have exclusive content. Stranger of Paradise + Elden Ring run like shit on PS4 from all accounts.
What games have you played recently?
>DMC5+FF7R have exclusive content.
oh boy muh heckin kratos skin
Both of those have unique characters in Vergil + Yuffie.
DMC brings turbo mode, Intermission has a few chapters + Fort condor
You'll be alone forever.
>DMC5+FF7R have exclusive content
>DMC5+FF7R have exclusive content
i play elden ring and minecraft on my ps5 from bed before i go to sleep its comfy
Genuine question for PCgays: do just play your indie LGBT exclusives?
No, we play the few good games that came out per year with better framerates and resolutions than your console can handle, and while we're waiting for the next good game we emulate the best games from your previous consoles with improved resolution and framerates and mods to fix various issues they had on release.
Sure you do, bud. Those 3000 hours modded Skyrim say otherwise
I always give up on Skyrim after installing a few mods because I realize no matter how many layers of mods I put on top, it's still fricking Skyrim underneath it all.
>3000 hours
rookienumbers.gif
>No, we play the few good games that came out per year with better framerates and resolutions than your console can handle
The results of the steam hardware survey determined that to be a lie
>LGBT exclusives
>says Snoy with his woke games on the Troon Approved Cucksole™
LOL
this is where you either ignore this completely because you have no rebuttal or where you cope and deny reality (as your troon playerbase does daily)
>mentally ill enough to seek this information out
>he thinks 1 study of this, with an unspecified margin of error, is the end all be all
I bet you my last 10 games played are better than whatever it is mentally ill homosexuals like you play. Wanna bet?
Ah, so it's "cope and deny reality". A classic, and one that your trooned out brethren are expert out.
Better luck next time you troony no gaems Snoy homosexual
lmao
Maybe one day you'll stop getting bad Japanese game ports, you won't have to beg for games or will play anything other than modded Todd games or LGBT indies, PCopes.
>last 10 games played
>Snoy machine doesn't even have 5 exclusives
LMAO
we know what mentally ill troony Snoys play, though.
It's Fortnite and CoD
KEK
do you think it's really any different on PC or Xbox?
Can't even deny the PS5 is a casual kiddie box. Sad.
Consoles in general are casual kiddie boxes.
>As you can see I am a MATURE gamer
>most popular games are most popular
who'da thunk
Why don't homosexuals play on PC?
They do. Ganker exists.
I play all my games for free.
We didn't ask how poor you were
How're those sour grapes?
Sour over what? The only gaming platform I don't have is a PS5
Having some shit tier laptop with integrated graphics doesn't count as having a gaming PC.
What makes you think I have a shitty laptop?
>insults himself by claiming PCgays play troony games
so, are you just moronic?
Just the PC only crowd which seems to be the case most of the time in Ganker. You guys literally screech like feral cats when you find out someone can afford to own more than just a PC and plays more than just freeware trash
>he hears free games and thinks freeware instead of piracy
absolutely buck broken console mentality
>consoles can't be hacked
>piracy isn't freeware trash
Whatever helps you cope
Cool, what epic new games are you going to pirate?
Calisto protocol? Uncracked denuvo
Star ocean 6? Uncracked denuvo
Persona? Uncracked denuvo
Monochrome moebius? Uncracked denuvo
>Uncracked denuvo
Is these black market slang terms supposed to mean anything to me?
>Persona? Uncracked denuvo
Still works on my Mac
>30 fps
lol
I’m playing Persona 5 Royal at 1440P for free on my MacBook. I could uncap the native Switch framerate if I want to
Turns out hogwards legacy has denuvo aswell, guess pc fats lost their only advantage over consoles.
can't be hacked
Unless you've kept your PS4/Pro offline since 2020 or you have one of the first 2 years of switch models, no, you cannot hack your console, unless you're very skillful with a soldering iron.
isn't freeware trash
No, it's paid video games you get for free. Are you moronic?
>Calisto protocol?
Trash
>Star ocean 6?
What the frick even is that?
>Persona?
Runs fine in at 60fps in Ryujinx and Yuzu.
>Monochrome moebius?
Seriously, what's with the obscure games nobody gives a shit about?
Do you even play those games or are they just convenient to mention because they aren't cracked yet? Might as well bring up handball 18.
Typical pcgay, doesnt even play videogames which is why hes clueless about any newly released games yet brags about his gaming experience.
2k dollar shitposting device after all, heh?
>you have to play shit obscure jrpgs nobody gives a frick about AT LAUNCH to be considered a gamer
what matter of mental moronation is this?
>AT LAUNCH to be considered a gamer
Are you talking with the voices in your head? Who wrote that

I accept your concession.

>Unless you've kept your PS4/Pro offline since 2020 or you have one of the first 2 years of switch models, no, you cannot hack your console, unless you're very skillful with a soldering iron.
What are you tech illiterate or something?
Quite the opposite. I have a hacked PS4 with 9.00 firmware and despite not having done it myself, I'm aware of the mods you can do to a switch to hack it. You on the other hand, seem to be very ignorant of modding and homebrew on current consoles.
>You on the other hand, seem to be very ignorant of modding and homebrew on current consoles.
How so? I'm the one who had to explain to you that consoles can be hacked and that it isn't difficult. You're not just going to flip this script and pretend you're the one educating me, dummy.
moron, I know hacking is a thing, like I explained to you. And unlike you, I know you can't just hack any console, which is why it's not equivalent to the ease of piracy on PC. I reiterate, do you have a hacked console? If no, frick off.
>like I explained to you
I explained it to you actually
>And unlike you, I know you can't just hack any console
But I never said you can hack literally any model SKU ever manufactured
>I reiterate, do you have a hacked console?
But you never iterated that in the first place lol
Why are you getting so feisty and gatekeeping over piracy lol. It's just black market modding and software theft. This isn't rocket science.
Nobody's gatekeeping shit. You ignore the limitations of which consoles can be hacked and claim I'm ignorant when I explained them to you, moron.
You just found out in this thread that consoles can be hacked and now you're gatekeeping hacking because apparently it's too difficult for you. Peace
>You just found out in this thread that consoles can be hacked
kek good b8 m8, made me reply multiple times
Please oh please based gatekeeper let me into your sekret club of pirates who only own a gaming PC! Piracy is vewy vewy difficult for me as a dumb dirty console owner! But in spite of that your basedness was able to pirate a console! That must be because you don't have a console in your house making you dumber! You must be vewy smart oh based gatekeeper! I could NEVER hack a device without your guidance! If I sell all my consoles and lose my source of income will you show me how to pirate games and build a PC with a welfare check?

I'm playing Elden Ring right now.
Why does Ganker think if a game isn't exclusive, it doesn't exist? I'm not a Sonygay, I actually have an Xbone, but with GPU prices right now, I don't even think it's a terrible idea to own a console.
t. still barely chugging along with an Nvidia 1600.
>but with GPU prices right now
oh frick off a console with full ptice games + paid online costs more kek
That's fricking bullshit and you know it, dude. A Series X with Game Pass will have you set for all the games you could want for $515.
>A Series X with Game Pass
stopped reading cuckold
you don't own any of that shit, kys zoomer
So? Playing through the Yakuza games right now. All of them. Great time. Hundreds and hundreds of hours. Stop being a sperg.
holy cope, lmfao!
you own nothing imagine being this much of a cuckold, kek americans
Why is she so angry?
-All of the Ys series
-Elden Ring
-Some switch emulation (i have a switch, but i don't want to buy everything)
Mostly genshit and occasionally ps4 games.
Yakuza, DMC, all souls games, my entire PS4 library, Digimon, Final Fantasy, Dragon Ball, God of War, Infamous, Hades, Street Fighter, literally any series you can imagine that isn't bing bing wahoo I play on PS5.
Why did you list a bunch of PS4 games and then also say "my entire PS4 library" as if they were two different things?
Some of those games have PS5 versions so I got those. Why are you so austistically mad about what system I enjoy my video games on?
He's mad that you only spent $500 for your video game playing box instead of $3000. That's literally it. PCgays are sad.
>video game playing box
But...PS5 has no games.
Games according to PCgays is browsing Ganker and yes you're right PS5 has no web browser.
HE'S GOING OVER THAT CLIFF
You bought a PS4 Pro.5 which is sad because you probably already bought an OG and a Pro. You spent $1500 on one gen of Playstation. Let that sink in.
>tfw skipped ps4 pro and my original ps4 got bought for $500 because it was at the fw that let it get hacked
ps5 was a pretty easy choice tbh, I just wish more games used the adaptive triggers, that shit's really cool.
I haven't turned on my PS5 in over a year. Last thing I played on it was Demon Souls Remake, it was a waste of money.
What a weird question. I mean, what wouldn't I play on my PS5? It has everything except Mario and Halo.
Felt like it was longer
I like watching snoys and tendies fight eachother while I play multiplats on my Series X. Not claiming I'm better, I just know my place and like watching the big guys fight.
>ps5 turned 2 in early november
>still calling it "30 million in 2 years!"
>when it's actually over a month and a half extra, a month and a half that includes black friday and christmas
This, ps4 also launched at a similar timeframe, and was at ~29.5 million at the real 2 year mark, and nearly 35 million after black friday and christmas.
>These replies
Lame, do better next time Ganker. Peace!
>Literally just two games in 2023
>One is a VR Meme game
How did Sony get to this point?
cross gen is still on, "next-gen" will start in like 2024 probably
>a temporary exclusive
>And a tech demo that's unplayable without a $550 msrp peripheral, sold separately from the $500 msrp console
People shitting on this are moronic
>Muh switch
>Muh PS4
Those consoles didnt get fricking destroyed by the chink flu like PS5/XSX. Its a miracle and impressive those consoles are at even 10m. Frick even now its hard in some countries to find a PS5 in its retail price, there arent even any exclusives for now using those consoles because people are too poor in this economy to afford one lmao.
This gen hasn't even started
>blaming fricking COVID
I thought it was because MUH PARTS. Also, the Switch had supply shortages out the gate too.
>I thought it was because MUH PARTS

Genshin isn't even on Switch. And Sony added that ginger lady from Horizon to Genshin.
>Nintendo Switch was comfortably the No.1 console, despite sales falling by 15% over the year before. PS5 was a clear No.2 (sales down 35%), while the Xbox Series S and X consoles were the only platforms to report a sales growth year-on-year (up 4.4%) but it is in third position.

Imagine for a moment it's 1994 and nintendo had to water down SNES games to also run on NES because nobody owns the fricking thing.
The ps5's revolutionary and unprecedented success mind broke tendies.
I'll never understand why people pretend cross gen releases are worth a damn. Try playing Ragnarok on a base PS4.
because all they have is PC multiplats

gotta defend playing fricking Fortnite and Apex at 55 FPS 1080p upscaled
More like try playing gaynarok without being interrupted by a cutscene or hallway exposition or some companion telling you to use the ice axes on the thing with the snowflake icon on it for the 50th time.
well, as always it was easy to shut the Snoys up and cause them to slink away to their next attempt to consolewar in some other thread (that they will also fail at)
GG EZ, PC Chad out
Looks like I struck a nerve. Fortnite/cod dominates all platforms except Nintendo. Gamers are casuals independent of platform
Did I miss todays famitsu thread?
Who buys these? how long do you think this console generation will last? 20 years? or will people buy next new things while last new thing still only has 3 games and repeat the cycle
Around 2025 Nintendo is probably finally releasing the Switch 2, which might very well reach PS4 levels of performance (2013 console).
If that happens massive amounts of Gen 8 games will be ported to it since devs can use it as a cheap way to rake in more cash during these moronic long dev cycles.
Nintendo is absolutely going to destroy Gen 9.
>gen 8 games
like?
All four of them, whatever they were.
Basically every single game released since 2010 until today, including the upcoming year. Every "Gen 9" game is also released on Gen 8, which makes the PS5 more like a PS4 Pro+.

Completely double shits on the genetic/nature argument by far. With a generation of 'acceptance', propagation by shame would have screeched to a halt, driving the shit to quick, clear extinction. Of course, that was always a bullshit position. People disregard and ignore abuse and disease statistics as if they don't count anymore. Indeed, I've seen people argue against more strict checks for male on male sexual contact/homos in terms of blood donation as though that weren't the most obvious and reasonable thing in the world. What a shit show.
This has to be fake by far. This is a statistical absurdity.

Competing with the PS5 and DSi it looks like.
Is this real? Does it work?
I have a mac I wanna play switch games on it.
Yeah it works great on my 2021 MBP, I double the SMT V rendering resolution. Also a neat technicality is that there is literally no CPU emulation, it can just pipe through the commands as if it was the native CPU.
https://github.com/Abd-007/Switch-Emulators-Guide/blob/main/Ryujinx.md
Your overpriced toy is so shitty for gaming that you need to emulate the Switch to play indie games.
Stay mad and play your latest AAA goyslop
I don't get it are gamers braindead?
Are Sony walking sims really that exciting?
PS5 only has 5 exclusive games, but there's multiplatform Japanese games that skip out on Xbox going to Switch, PC, and PS4+5.
Xbox is a complete joke no matter the way you spin it.
where are the games though
>still outsold by the switch
In 12 months they will be at 60 million. What will you all say then?
>What will you all say then?
"Actually it's only at 47 million, no need to lie when Sony publishes their numbers quarterly"
I miss when Ganker wasn't just twitter threads and console war idiocy. Please go back to normal social media. Just enjoy playing video games for the love of god.
newbie, the idort meme was born out of console warring
Yeah but it wasn't nearly every thread then.
Hold up
>ps5 was over 17 million at the end of 2021
>Sony claimed they would sell 18 million in 2022
>they're now celebrating about 30 million at the end of 2022
>which would put them at 13 million for the year
Why are they celebrating?
they probably meant fiscal year
I know, but that only makes it worse. They were at ~19 million by the end of the fiscal year, which means Q4, the historically weakest quarter for console sales, doesn't just need to sell 5 million to reach this prediction, it needs to hit 7 million, which they couldn't even do for christmas and black friday.
Meant for
Now imagine if it actually had games!
>STILL no games
>STILL not in stock globally
I literally have no idea what's going on, it simply doesn't make any sense whatsoever to me
It is almost as if the no games meme is wrong
Don't worry. It isn't much of an exaggeration. The last exclusive title released for the thing was in June of 2021. Over a year and a half of nothing and a half a year of what constitutes less than what the PS3 managed on release day.
But did you ever consider that you have an actual illness? Like that your consolewarrioring about exclusives is a mental illness and 99,99% of the rest of the world doesnt share your illness?
Not really, because I don't console war. I just don't deny the reality of Sony's actual software incentive for their latest console. I also don't engage in projection, much less to the laughable degree that you clearly take it to.
>I just don't deny the reality of Sony's actual software incentive for their latest console
Theres more currently playable games on the ps5 than on old consoles including the ps4 games in better performance
>I also don't engage in projection
Im no the one here thats obsessed over exclusives games on a plastic toy
You clearly are obsessed, as you're lashing out and going out of your way to try and damage control reality for this so-called plastic toy. You're also lying even by your own expanded metric of 'currently playable games' to do it. The PS4 for example has over 3,000 native titles, and the PS3 over 2,500 while the PS5 has a bit over 500.
>Console relead in 2013, thats still in its lifetyme cycle has more games than a newly released one
What exactly are you trying to say with this?
>What are you trying to say with this refutation of what I said?
Nice desperation.
>it has no games
>yes it does
>well it has no exclusive games
The shifting goal posts
Not at all. Anyone who isn't a desperate shill understands the 'no games' claim is in reference to exclusives. You're being disingenuous to grasp at anything you can and deflect the fact of the matter. I also didn't say it has no exclusives, fanbot.
Dont play stupid now because otherwise you'd acknowedge that micrsoft hasnt released an exclusive since Halo Infinite so by definitio it's the xbox that doesnt have games. Now give me your next excuse
Halo Infinite is not an exclusive. MS has left the exclusive model a generation ago and neither them or their fans pretend otherwise. Deflecting to MS doesn't change the reality of Sony's circumstances.
It never will no matter how many times you try to do it, either.
>halo infinite isn't an exclusive
So I can play it on a playstation console yes?
>also on PC now counts as exclusive
holy cope
Holy goal post shifting
I'm not that anon you originally replied to, but nobody considers sony games that are on PC exclusives. Why should this be different for xbox?
Probably because if you accept it, it give him leverage to pretend a handful of multiplats are exclusive and pad out the cope.
>Microsoft doesn't have games because Microsoft Sea of Thieves is on Microsoft Xbox and also Microsoft Windows
If they dont get available stock they also wont get games, devs would be pretty nonsensical if they put their games on ps5 only when half their audience cant get a ps5
to people who only care about playstation, all multiplats are effectively 100% playstation exclusives.
i'm not joking btw
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_5_games
>There are currently 541 games on this list.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nintendo_64_games
>There are currently 388 games on this list.
Doesn't mean much when that list is identical to sony's last generation device
The PS4's list is far bigger, has a handful of games that can't be played forward through BC- 6 titles. Even with BC, the PS5 is hard to defend on the software front if you can find a PS4 or already have one.
>multiplats or shovelware shit
>comparing it to the banjo kazooie machine in the first place
lmao
>buy a console
>it has no games and never will
Thanks for playing, everyone
Looks like someone just vandalized the PS5-only games page on Wikipedia again with a smattering of unreleased software and timed exclusives.
Literally redirects from franchise or predecessor pages that have been given false tags to act as stand-ins. Desperation.
wouldn't timed exclusives count on that page until the day the non-ps5 versions are released?
No. Never been the case for categorization or an acknowledged thing in general discussion.
There were more sales than ever because there were more systems available than ever. I didn't buy one. I'm not buying a piece of shit that won't last even five years.
It's gonna be real weird if the PS6 comes out and the PS5 ends up being a weird stop-gap console with almost no software identity of its own.
Ps5 is proof that we have an abundance of extreme level morons in society, it servers zero purpose and they still spend money on it.
Ps5 is proof that microsoft gays and tendies let sony live in their head rent free
Tell me when they fix the thermal paste issue. I’m not buying this until they fix it. I like to keep my consoles for 20 years. You never know I might be playing this system in 2040….BUT with the lack of exclusive games as well that’s not happening anyway.
A modern classic for your entertainment:
>Behind PS4 launch aligned
>Behind Switch launch aligned
>Will miss their paltry 18 million in FY2022 projection AGAIN
>Still going strong
This is post epidemic and chip shortage while also costing more than either. But I enjoy your cope so give me more.
So you admit they fricked up the pricing like with the ps3
If they had fricked up the pricing it wouldnt be consistently sold out. Try harder
What they really fricked up was the distribution. They should've made an online queue and only let people sign up who had a PSN account before 2020 and only one console per person. The whole scalping business made them lose out on a shit ton of software sales and it was a PR nightmare.
Spoken like a moron. They can't control what a person does with the console after they've purchased it and locking sales to online would have pissed off retailers
>They can't control what a person does with the console after they've purchased it
But selling it to someone who has been a loyal customer so far gives you a far greater chance that they will actually spend money on your ecosystem instead of letting them rot in a warehouse for years.
>locking sales to online would have pissed off retailers
Correct me if I'm wrong, but retailers are the morons who sold their whole stock to a single person if they rolled in at the right moment. They didn't deserve to distribute them if they're doing such a shit job of it.
Please go away you fricking idiot, you clearly don't understand how business works if you think pissing off the people who distribute your products is a good idea
4theplayers
But only 4.
PS5 never was affected by chip shortages and stock issues and I'm tired of this bullshit excuse
it wasn't affected by COVID either because devs receive their development box like 2 years at the very least before the console launches. Do these people think devs start making games on launch day?
And covid actually had a positive boost on the gaming industry. Many tech manufacturers and software developers set personal best numbers in 2020 and 2021. During that stretch of forced seditary lifestyles people naturally looked for fun entertaining things to do at home. In the gaming industry Nintendo benefited the most. Everyone looked towards them for their gaming fix. Animal Crossing was a worldwide hit and Switch sales skyrocketed. On the other hand Sony's numbers plummeted. FF7R and TLOU2 launched in that same covid window as Animal Crossing, and they were apparently uneffected, and arguably negatively effected seeing as those games had abysmal sales. This is because sony doesn't sell fun. Nobody thinks their games are fun. Nobody desires what Sony thinks video games should be
>these 2 games didnt sell that well
Is this the new cope? Meanwhile Sony had a record quarter because Sony always made most of their money through online services.
>final fantasy and TLOU are just 2 random literally who IPs and their performance in the market doesn't really have any significance to sony
Big reach but ok
The funniest thing about Sony and COVID is that not only did they not see the same boost everyone else got under the pandemic. When the pandemic waned off, they still got fricked by people moving back to normal life.
They got double fricked by COVID. While it was one of the best things in ages for most of everyone else.
https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/SONY/sony/revenue
So is this the part where you say this is a lie and Sony never made any money?
Looks like 2021s YOYs were up that much only because they dipped during the free 2020 pandemic boost that literally everyone else saw.
Jesus christ the amount of reaching you morons do is hilarious sometimes. Yep, the news reporting the chip shortage that affected multiple industries was all a lie manufactured by Sony.
The chip shortage was affecting production on processes that went into cars. That's 14nm stuff at best, it doesn't get used for gen 9 console hardware.
Why do you keep insiting on digger your whole deeper? The two industries most impacted were consuner electronics and automative. Now tell me, what do you think a game console would fall under moron?
Is Switch a gaming console? Didn't switch and nintendo achieve record performing years in software and hardware during covid and the chip shortages? Eagerly awaiting your reply!
>this thing didnt have a shortage so that means the other thing could have had a shortage
Double digit IQ reasoning
>this thing didnt have a shortage
Switch had huge stock issues during 2020-2021.
2022 wasn't as bad, but the OLED model still wasn't readily available.
Huh? I never said those words. Maybe you replied to the wrong post?
You implied the lack of a shortage for the switch meant that the PS5 shortage was false. There's no backtracking from this moron, your logical reasoning is moronic and should be pointed out as such
>You implied the lack of a shortage for the switch meant that the PS5 shortage was false
Because you implied the the shortage was real and impacted PS5 on the merit that it was a console
I implied it was real because it was real. You have provided no proof beyond your own delusion to back up your claims while the news and Sony's official statements back my own. Now if yoy have nothing else, I accept your concession
>I implied it was real because it was real
No you said it was real because consoles were affected. Which is false. Switch sold more during the chip shortage. Sony just fricked up and couldn't source their materials as well as Apple and Microsoft because sony is run by literal morons. When you wake up late and are the last one in line for a bagel and they are sold out, that doesn't mean there is a bagel shortage.
Yes, Sony fricked up because 2 companies with deeper pockets than them bought chip priority. Clearly they should have just outbid microsoft and apple instead. Fricking moron
Switch benefitted during covid because they already had warehouses full of Tegra chips because they planned ahead and had an excellent relationship with Tegra. Sony was cheap and probably strong arming chip manufacturers on their brand name and tried to get budget deals because "do you know who you're talking too!!!". Must not have gone well because immediately after they were gutting their heatsink and raising MSRP on their consoles. Remind me, when did Microsoft and Nintendo gut their heatsinks and raise their prices? They are a console manufacturer and surely faced the same "adversity" as sony in 2020
Huh? I never said those words. Maybe you replied to the wrong post?
I wonder if gays here lie because they think people wont look things up

Your source states that the problems with automotive may be due to production switching to chips needed for consumer electronics, which reached a 55% increased amount of sales.
So you've actually just sourced there have been more PC and Console electronics available than ever.
You fricking moron, it said the sales increased which is why there was a shortage, demand outstripped supply.
So where's your source that the PS5 shortage is a hoax?

Not buying one until FF7 remake part 2. No other PS5 games interest me.
PS5 was affected by COVID, but what the limited supply did was making the demand seem much greater than it actually was.
>but what the limited supply did was making the demand seem much greater than it actually was.
Made worse by Sony trying to make lemonade in the wrong way with the heavy scalping by doing nothing about it for a long time, because it made the demand seem unreal and gave them some real pretty-sounding headlines.
I honestly wonder why morons think a company can fight scalping because yoy can't. You can't control what a person does with a product after you've sold it to them. Unless the government passes an anti scalping law, that is jack shit stopping the practice. But this is Ganker a board filled with gays that let a company bamed Sony live rent free in their head and endlessly seethe about it so expecting logical arguments is pointless
>I honestly wonder why morons think a company can fight scalping because yoy can't.
Besides having their own vetted distribution from the beginning, which actually did help when they started doing it way later? Or threatening chain retailers with cutting off future Playstation product supply if they don't put in good faith efforts to combat scalping (since half the issue with PS5 scalping was retailers just not giving a shit because the loss on the hardware wasn't coming out of their end) and taking more business to a rival chain?
Jesus you are a fricking idiot and I wish morons like you would stop pretending you have any inkling of what the frick you are talking about. A company like Sony needs a retailer more than the retailer needs Sony. They buy the product, they cover the loss, they do the promotion ect. Sony would be absolute retrds to make any sort of threats of product witholding because it would hurt them more than the retailer. Please shut the frick up and go away. You are stupid, not smart so stop pretending you have some semblence of intelligence because you do not.
I call it the Praystation 5 cause I be praying that one day they release 5 games!
>30 million
>But software sales are so ass that they have to make PS4 and PC ports to make money
More like 25 million at best since scalpers get them like no tomorrow.
Instead basically 90% of the "gen 9" games are gen 8. The Switch 2 running gen 8 games is going to obliterate this entire generation because devs can get quick bucks tossing all of their gen 8 (including 2025 gen 8) games on it. Dev production duration are like 7 years so they're definitely going to hire porting studios.
>software sales are ass
Which means little since they make most of their money from services abd microtransactions. Ganker showcasing how little they know once again
Very impressive, Jim, very impressive. however
Fifa and Call of duty machine
Formerly a Call of duty machine.

Merger delayed till 2024 and most likely longer as the FTC drags out the case. Microshit taking L after L
>he doesn't know about Microsoft going ahead with the deal after EU and UK approve it
The FTC's case is fricking toast, especially if they try to take it to federal court. There's nearly unanimous bipartisan support for the buyout in the mainstream American political sphere (with the only two exceptions being campaign-socialist homosexuals Bernie "No Refunds" Sanders and Elizabeth "Whiteskin" Warren, which resulted in them being grilled on implicitly disapproving of the Activision developer unionization that Microsoft plans on approving after taking over).
You going to be in for some disappointment microshill if you think it'll be that simple. Microsoft was bluffing and they knew it. Thats why they're trying to play nice now because they know they're about to get buttfricked
Gonna laugh my ass off when Ganker says the PS6 will flop and inevitably doesn't. It's like you guys are addicted to being wrong
There won't be a PS6. Sony is exiting the industry after the PS5.
Already need another dose of being wrong?
No that will be another checkmark for me being correct, just like how I predicted PS5 selling worse than PS4 and Switch, and the Switch selling over 100 million units when we found out it was hackable day one, and also how I predicted Sony going 3rd party before Nintendo. Sony barely profits from hardware. If they could they would axe all manufacturing from their business model and operate entirely as a storefront or subscription service. The future of sony will be just an app, no hardware, no physical software. And by then you'll be stuck fanboying over a glorified cloud streaming service preaching to nobody "SEE I TOLD YOU SONY WASN'T DEAD!" as I play God of War on my Super Switch and Series X Plus. Cap it.
Look I want a PS5 but I also want games. I would first play bloodborne before GoW: Ragnarok. So what’s the point of buying one if I have everything else I want on PC?
Stay on PC then. No one cares. PS5 isn't a cult. I'm not going to talk you into it.
Umm sweaty this is a shill thread, yes console owners are part of respective and overlapping cults, yes you should convince me to buy it, unless you literally can’t do it because only a cult worshipper would buy this product religiously with no selling point.
It's not a shill thread. It's a PCgays seethe at PS5 for selling well even though it "doesn't have games" thread. You are mad that people like consoles for their simplicity and your MUH GAMES argument never worked.
Do whatever you want with you money. I won't be using mine to build an expensive meme PC.
Anon I don’t care if playstation succeeds I want to know what the point of owning one is if it doesn’t have the games to justify the purchase
I'm just going to buy a digital PS5 in 2024 to play the very few games I'd care about. Yes I know digital prices but tbh I only ever bought like 5 or 6 PS4 games in the entire life of the PS4 and I got it day 1.
Physical games, because I want to offload all this shit on my old age and I'm not going to give my grandson a steam or ebin login.
good for them i still will not buy one.
They call it the pisstation because it's a piece of shit.
>still cant buy a Series X
>stores are spamming my email BEGGING me to buy a PS5
What happened?
Bros, I don't give a flying frick about the consoles themselves. Where are the games? This gen has none.
Last year was great for video games. I loved Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarok. I think you have clinical depression.
There has been lots of good games this gen, even just last year, the fact they aren't tied to one specific platform means nothing.
Switch has all the games
Pretty good. PC only sold 300 million or so last year.
Cute cope
>P-PS5 HAS NO GAMES!!!
>ignores all PS4 exclusives because ???
>ignores all cross-gen exclusives because ???
sneed
PS5 and Series X are not Gen 9 consoles. They only play Gen 8 games and that won’t change for years to come
while in factual literality their is no game's
