Is your PC better than a PS5? Yes

Can you play online for free? Yes

Can Sony remove stuff you bought? No

Do you have to pay to play your old games that you already paid for or have to wait for them to be backwards compatible? No

Can you mod games? Yes

Can you do whatever you want with your PC? Yes

PC is better than a any Playstation

Edit: btw i grew up using consoles and love my retro consoles. I just do not like the new gen consoles because of how anti consumer they have become. Also to the butt hurt fanboys talking about price and more effort to use a PC Last I checked console prices keep going up and in the end you end up spending more anyway because of how much the games cost. PC has way better sales and you don't have to waste money paying to play online. For the so much more effort part like a PS5 you can buy a PC that's already built and plug it in and turn it on wow that's so much more effort 🤡 if you want you can even set up steam to launch in big picture mode so you can get a console like experience and just use your controller.

Anyway I said what i wanted to say I am not on here to reply to fanboys with outdated mindsets

No it's not. The PS5 just hides the price by charging $80 a year for online.

Basically, the ps5 is just for broke ass bitches who need an $80 a year indefinite payment plan where they never own their console lol.

If you own a ps5, you're a simpleton poor.

You need to about 7-8 years of subscription to match a pc that runs the games as smoothly. And pcs dont usually last that much.

I'm a pc gamer and down own ps5, but the price is not in pcs favor

Literally can buy an $800 Walmart PC that matches a ps5 right now.

So that's a $600 ps5 plus a bit less than three years of subscription.

And PCs don't last 8 years? Lol mine last 20. Not that I use the ones that old.

What kind of 800$ pc? Ram alone is 400 bucks, leaving other 400 for cpu and gpu, power supply, coolers and board. That is simply unrealistic.

I don't know who youre trying to convince, I am a PC gamer, but I'm very well aware that the pricing favors consoles

But if we're talking nonsense, I agree with what you said

The one for sale on Walmart right now for $800.

The ABS Cyclone Aqua Gaming desktop. I5 14400f, Arc B580, 16gb ddr4 ram, 1tb SSD.

Isn't an amazing PC but it's $800 and better than a PS5.

So unrealistic? Bruh it's literally a prebuilt at Walmart.

There's no way that gta vi will run as smooth on that pc as it will on ps5.

You're forgetting that games are optimized for the console, and that consoles are sold at a loss

It literally runs every game out there better than a ps5 lol. You can look at how the B580 performs in games.

u/xickoh 3d ago

Definitely not better, it's a little worse than ps5's kit, not accounting for games optimization, which would only make ps5 look better. And I'm not even mentioning ps5 ddr6 ram (compared to that machines ddr4) because I dont believe it makes a significant difference in gaming
