    To run the games i wanna play would require a pc worth 3 ps5s

    Edit: people here don’t like facts, but where I live a pc that matches a ps5 is around $1500+ it you’re lucky. Yes your pc is better than my ps5 in the same way that your Ferrari is better than my Honda. But I like Hondas.

        Again no, that’s not my taste. I’m just saying steam doesn’t work for most people. The convenience of a console alone is always gonna keep me. To know i can buy a game 5 years after the console is released and it’ll run. PC gaming is superior, but it costs way more and takes way more work. Im it’s not convenient for casual people like me, especially since I want to sit on my couch with a controller and not have to interact with a computer

          If you can afford the cost of console game prices, more power to you. They’re pricing me out and I know I’ll have no choice but to switch to PC in the future if I want to be able to keep playing games.

          Steam doesn’t work for most people? You sure about that? It has 132 Million active users, that’s nearly double the number of PS 5s that have been sold!

            Very odd comparison, you need to buy a ps5 to be a ps5 user, you don’t need to buy anything to be a steam user, you just need to sign up and you’re considered a user.

              Very odd comparison…

              Not really. There are more people using Steam than own a PS5 or Xbox X. So in what reality does Steam “not work for most people”?

              you just need to sign up and you’re considered a user.

              You’ll note that I used Steam’s ACTIVE user statistic. That’s not people who just “signed up”, those are people playing games on Steam.

              Steam works just fine for most people.

          *laugh sitting on the couch playing PC games off steam using a tv to display and a wireless controller

          What are you even talking about …enjoy paying more for less, and paying monthly to play games while also being locked to whatever terms they decide all willy nilly.

      You can also tweak the graphics settings and get a budget PC.

        Again, no. Why not just get a ps2? I want current gen games and I know that for this to be comparative on pc it costs nearly triple
