I thought the big thing with these ninth gen consoles was that they were powerful enough upon release that’s there’s no need for a mid gen refresh this time.
sigh literally just got my PS5 like 8 months ago.
Why do gamerstm get excited about being exploited like this instead of getting mad about being ripped off?
Lol some slightly better frame rates and visuals at best.
I refuse to buy any new Playstations that are not black and horizontal and significantly cheaper. A white tower, not only doesn’t physically fit with my setup, it will ruin the aesthetics.
Is that superficial? Yes. But I don’t see a point in a new Playstation anyway.
Making the current generation of consoles not fit in people’s entertainment centers was an extremely rare smart move by both sony and m$ actually. Trying to stuff that much exhaust heat into tiny enclosed shelves is dumb and people would absolutely have done it if it were physically possible.
PS5 is horizontal and vertical, like PS2, 3, and some 4s. They also make black plates for it, both official and aftermarket.
Oh, really? I didn’t know either of those things. Thanks!
Still not buying it though.
Yeah don’t blame you. It’s a good console, but not a lot to play on it that you can’t play elsewhere.
I mean, it’s fucking $500.
Gaming is an expensive hobby. My PC was around $1,500. I prefer the console because it’s silent and smaller, and it runs slightly better than my PC. But any option other than a Switch or a Steam deck is gonna run you a few hundred at least.
I’m not a g*mer anymore.
