10 "Reasons" to Buy a PS5 Instead of a PC. They're Terrible.

[@Ooog__]

one of the best reasons to buy a PC over consoles is that u don't have to pay to play online. fuck that shit

[@0fficialdregs]

and steam has a commmunity thread for each game

[@shadowsagen723]

I paid for Xbox live for like 10 yrs to play the games online and with friends, but after 2017 after ME Andromeda came out and my friend and I tried playing that crap game on console and the frame rate was worst than any game i played next to Enemy Front. He dragged to PC for like the 5th time and I have never gone back to console or paid for XBL since.

[@IceNKaffe]

i remember someone said, "who's stupid enough to waste their money on pc instead of console ?" and the reply was, "someone who stupid enough to do other thing than playing game all day long."

[@AdamBGames]

1. Quest 2 is 1 type C cable and can run with a PC. 2. The PS5 OS is actually WAY worse than the PS4 UI, removing options like folders which were really useful. 3. GOG Galaxy 2.0, there, all your games in 1 place (I think this is what he meant by the interface) 4. Internal batteries are actually worse and limit repairability 5. You can buy docks and rechargeable batteries for Xbox controllers Damn, I'm only 1/3rd into the video and I'm already annoyed by this fanboy's "KZbinr journalist" voice

[@shadowsagen723]

In my opinion, Xbox made a better controller than PS ever did. The Xbox controller really hasn't changed in over 21 years or even 17 years. You could say the same for PS, but the Xbox controller just has a much more comfortable feel to em. The PS5 controller if you look a little hard at em, looks like PS is trying to imitate the Xbox controller's shape minus the button layout.

[@RedneckUser935]

Bruh the playstation policys is what made me switch to pc

[@shadowsagen723]

Don't forget how Nintendo treats its customers. From what I hear any old school game you buy digitally, you can't take it with you to the next Nintendo console generation even if you bought it. example- buy Super Mario Bros 3 digitally for the Wii U, U have to re-buy SMB3 for the switch. Nintendo forces you to re-buy games that you had previously bought for the last generation even tho they claim backwards compatibility.

the PC is more freedom, less of your hand held and what can be on the digital marketplaces plus we got options for those cool Sony has a VR headset for those new to VR but many games won't touch the PS5 as Sony will turn them down or only let select ones in. You want a console? cool, enjoy it but odd the sony gamers are so protective of the box that ask for their money every 5 seconds but now with tiers like all out things for some reason wild some still pat sony on the back for pay gating basic things.

[@Traeknald]

honestly I bought mine because all of the fps and indie games I play with friends I can already run on my laptop, so for the big next gen games I decided to drop 500 on a ps5 rather than 1200 on a pc. I know games are cheaper on pc, but the games I can't run are games you have to pay full price for anyway, so it doesn't matter that much.

[@TheVulgarPeasant]

I have a 1070 but when you try to go over 1080p with the newer games you’re gonna have a bad time. I recently bought a PS5 and a C2 and it’s pretty darn nice NGL. I used a bunch of gift cards I racked up and basically got the TV for free. Cheaper than upgrading my 2017 PC (which can still do 1080p pretty well)

Um... is this one person? It feels like someone else wrote the script and then this guy is narrating it. However, as he's recording the lines, he never stops to think 'wait, that didn't make sense..." The whole thing just seems so jumbled and illogical. Also, there are a few things that the PS4 already had, so the PS5 isn't exactly innovating. Like the controller thing is true of PS4 controllers as well, so it's weird to hear it like "no batteries" is some marvel innovation. I personally do prefer not using batteries, but choices are always nice. And yeah, I don't think whoever made this video knows anything about PC. I think they just put PC in there to supposedly cover everything, and very possibly to get more attention. More attention= more clicks for their barrage of ads, after all.

[@DeusMachina_EXE]

I know this is a old vid, but even 2 years ago the VR games that PC and PS had, PC had the better ones. Mind you they were mostly in early access at the time, but they were good experiences even back then. The main hardware limitation of the console itself is the thing that will always hold back the VR, and there's no way for it to improve. Also the cable management for the headset is just one cable that splits usually, i have the index for example and it does that.

[@sonicthehedgehog989]

The only convincing reason to get a ps5 mentioned in that video was the controller. But since I can get the controller to work on my rtx laptop and my gaming rig using steam or whatever other service, I see no reason to get a ps5. Yea I like the controller but that's it. I don't like marvel characters or the other sony characters except sly cooper to some degree. But fair enough business is business if they paid to get a license to make exclusive games it's OK that's a free market, for example I hated marvel even more after the Disney acquisition but Disney bought them so it's fair that they do whatever they want with those characters. The characters aren't held hostage, they're assets, they can be bought, licensed, given away, sold, etc.

the argument of console vs pc is so stupid...If you remove ALL subjective positives (such as playerbase, friends owning consoles etc) then the clear winner is PC. Constant innovation, better visuals depending on your build, better all around experience. VR, modding (not even advantage mods, just mods to improve the "quality of life") etc lol I will say the price is one motivator. If you want to be able to use all of these innovations you will have to spend at LEAST $800 on just the PC. And even dropping like 800-1200 thats still just a mid-tier pc. Now you can do a lot with a mid tier pc but you will be limited by your hardware and the experience might be filled with some extremely aggravating things haha edit: that one argument he brought up "499 will only get you an entry level gpu at msrp" actually braindead lmfao 2070 super and 3070 are both 499 msrp ctfu

Depending on the headset you have, VR headsets can be limited to just one cable if you're using one that relies on inside out tracking. If you're using a VR headset that relies on base stations or lighthouse tracking, you do have some more cables to deal with. Though, you're still really just dealing with one because most of them can just stay plugged in and out of the way if you route the cables properly.
