I don’t understand why anyone would choose to buy a console after this.
I don’t think people buy consoles for the physical games… I mostly stopped doing that a generation ago.
In terms of hardware I have basicly everything under the sun you play games on.
Sony has has a pretty strong list of exclusives still. In my mind at least.
And I just don’t always feel like sitting at a desk.
So unless you build another pc for next to the TV, your other options are a mile long HDMI cable from wherever your pc is to your TV or remote play.
Neither of these options are as smooth of an experience as just grabbing a controller and turning the Playstation on.
You could somewhat do this on PC with Steam OS or Bazzite, but Linux/Proton is still problematic for a lot of multiplayer games.
Are all good points. The exclusive thing is unfortunate because Sony used to port most of its exclusives to PC for a few years there. It makes me wonder if they only stopped in anticipation of discontinuing disc sales.
