What went wrong?
>>538405826>What went wrong?you stupid niggers kept giving them money. i havent given the gaming industry a fucking dollar since 2014. youre all gonna do it again when GTA6 comes out too
>>538405826fractional reserve banking with debt based fiat money and deficit spending which enlarges the money supply. tl:dr It's the fucking jews again.
PS1 was $299 at launch, spic.
>>538405826Throw the jews out and you can play video games for 10 months out of the year.
>>538405826>WrongNothing. You were meant to lose everything due to inflation. It's all planned
>>538405826Why must they insist on making it as hideous as possible.
>>538405826Only slave morality goy cattle don't pirate their games
>>538405947$299 in 1994 is still cheaper than $1000 today.
>>538406092>nigger Flag checks out.
>>538405947In 1990s dollars too. Games have also stayed about the same price since then, although maybe that's changed. I haven't bought a new console since the Gamecube. Whatever the case, I suspect you could make the case that console gaming was just as expensive back in the NES era.
>>538405826Consoles were pushed into being PCs by entitled midwits who now complain when a console gains a PC price tag.
>>538405826Hell, I'm still playing my ps4 i bought back in 2019. Chugging along perfectly. My pa3 finally crapped out back in january. Had it since 2009. So roughly 17ish years of frequent play before it died. I got the nes, snes, n64 and GameCube emulators, all the roms I could find for each that I play at least a couple times a week. So when my ps4 finally croaks ill just stick with old Nintendo emulators/ roms.
>>538406173>defending game companies at this pont
>>538405826>ps6 $1000I got my ps5 pro a year ago so I'll be good for a long while>but the ps6 might come out late 2027!The first 3 years are cross-gen games that don't fully utilize the new system, and the ps6 will barely be able to improve upon the ps5 pro in terms of backwards compatibility, so it's not like ps4 and ps5 games will be much better on the ps6 vs the ps5 pro.Within 3-4 years of the ps6 being released they will have a ps6 pro that takes advantage of better hardware while also being past the memory crunch. In other words, $1000 ps6 ----> $850 ps6 proI'll upgrade from ps5 pro to ps6 pro without missing a beat
>>538405826Only low IQ buy consoles.
>>538405826I miss X Games on a PS1
>>538405826Normies.
>>538406323All my nintendium consoles still work. Even the save batteries. The only save batteries I've had die so far are in games I bought used. CRTs still work.I have a PS3, it's an excellent DVD player but that's all I use it for. Games already sucked at that point. Movies sucked at that point too.

I just installed a modern graphics card in a 10 years old pc, the console jew will never get me.
>>538405826Nothing, when the ps6 is released in 2040, it will be roughly the same value as the original ps1 in 1995
>>538405826>What went wrong?kids that grew up with video games have kids that play. they're charging based on the entire family play. personally i think video games are a retarded 'hobby' (as they refer to it now). plus the games are expensive as shit. i heard gta6 is going to be $100. that's fucking 1/10th of the console itself.

judios
>>538408300PS1 was $300 on release but able to cut back on cost thanks to exponential gains in compute in the 90sthis no longer is possible.
>>538405826the ps1 would have been about 7-8 hrs wages for any ole person who walked into a construction job as a helper. Maybe 40hrs now. And since with common sense you could figure maybe 300-350 to be reasonable now days it makes sense. Inflation aside everyone has maximized their profits to the point of stagnating many potential sales. The market used to get tons of my money but basically none since shit went crazy. No more restaurants, commercial shit, trips anything. But playstation was literally the first to lose me when the ps4 came out and they wanted to charge for me to play the digital games I bought just a year before while they tried to explain it away as if they really couldnt have figured out a better solution. If only everyone had walked away from them then but there's too many retards out there. Hopefully recent history will do better to boycott shit like that in the future but I highly doubt it.
>>538405826now show the prices adjusted for inflationalso include cost per megaflop

>>538408685This. I live a very healthy life. Consistently the biggest expense that overshadows all others is my rent. It's easily twice as much as everything else combined.It used to be that you could rent a two-bedroom apartment alone by working part-time at the minimum wage. Now it's over half a normal full-time salary.I'm not buying the goyconsole in this economy.
>>538405826To all gamers in this thread grow up, get a job, and get a girlfriend. Video games are for little kids so snap out of your Peter Pan syndrome.
>>538405826You kept gaming as an adult rather than growing up
>>538405826Wages grew too so that means inflation which makes products more expensive on paper
>>538409107Also for any paid shills that respond to this post with "no, nothing was ever affordable, actually" well here's the math:>minimum wage in 1971: $1.60 an hour >median rental cost: $108 a month >hours of minimum wage needed a month: 68>hours of minimum wage needed a week: 17

>>538409110>>538409177Can you explain why a child could afford a game console in the 90s but not its analog today?It's because the economy is garbage you fucking fags.
>>538409316There is no need to explain anything you should have grown out of video games a long time ago yet you haven't, why is that?
>>538409110I put away games and did that for years. Ended up fucked over by a slew of whores in such a fucked up manner that you could spend all day and hardly find a story so fucked up. Then add covid and the rest of the shit going on. I also had done so much living because I always go hard that I had become jaded for just about damn everything. Gaming has been something able to actually satisfy my creative ability and active mind in a world where its all been done 10 times before. You can call it juvenile all you want but I dont really give a shit. We have one life to live. I will say though that it's not healthy to sit on your ass every day so I'll be shifting back more to the real world one way or another.
>>538409215For wages to match the lack of ability to buy in all fields would mean wages so high most would not be willing or capable to pay them.

In the early 2000s gaming was proven to be a huge market that goes beyond young boys and male nerds. Corporations noticed this and spent the last 15 or so years pushing it to the limits and it's now breaking down.chasing every single little demographic out there, all while assume the core consumer base would just act like a loyal dog who would never even consider dropping their "Identity' (Hobby) as a "Gamer"
>>538406310The real problem was that Consoles were creating an unwanted division in market share. For the longest time the best graphics and physics and anything to do with fidelity and visuals was found on the PC. This created a schism in the market and the PC vs Console wars began in the early 2000s as video cards began to become insanely good compared to the options available in the 90s. As time grew consoles because of their smaller form factor and the fact that consumers were expected to buy new ones every so many years meant that the capabilities of the consoles lagged behind PCs which had other incentives to improve graphic card performance and CPU performance than just the gaming market. Then 2009 hit and the smartphone created a third schism in the gaming marketshare, the mobile gambling game market share eventually eclipsed that of the console and pc marketshare for gaming. The growth of "mobile gaming" coupled with gamergate in 2011 basically killed the hardcore gaming industry forever. Anyways the end result was a decade+ long stagnation in game quality on all levels, then crypto and AI made RAM and Videocards inaccessible due to massive increases in cost, and now you are where you are now where the console market has mostly merged with the PC market and there are very few titles that remain exclusive to a console with of course most titles being absolute dogshit not worth playing.
You'll pay for the slop, OP.Also why are third-string NATO members picking up spare time on 4chan? Running out of dudes? lel
>>538405826Lol I wouldn't buy the ps6 even if it was 130 bucks. Sony wants to fuck their customers I'm out. I'll play my games on my old consoles and computer.
>>538405826>What went wrong?You play on console
>>538405947Was it? I got mine for around 150. I didn't buy it at launch though.
>>538418365Same. For me it's the no disc drive. I already have to deal with the no physical shit on PC, but at least there I can mod it and pirate extremely easily if I want, since there is no "walled garden".Any console that doesn't at least have the benefit of offline use is useless to me. If I have to download every single game, then I will simply stick to PC/Steam and take my losses there.
>>538406749Did she died from her loving boyfriend? I don't remember her.
>>538405826>PS6I stopped following games after the PS2, you mean to tell me there's actually 3, 4, and 5?
>>538405901This. People bitch about game prices when it's like, "bitch, you willingly use Steam which is just adware + DRM".
The helium crunch is going to make all electronics retardedly expensive for the foreseeable future.
>>538406296It's a little more complicated than that yes it was a similar price compared to now back in the 80's but essentials were cheaper back then so people had more disposable income to spend on luxuries like gaming consoles.
ps5 only came out 5 years ago though.
The playstation was born for the disc drive, and it will die without the disc drive.
>>538410153Nintendo won nigger, Mifflin won
>>538419576>The playstation was born for the disc drive, and it will die without the disc drive.the PS2 became huge because it was the cheapest DVD player option, perfect timing, I got it day 1 NA release, got my first job for it, it didn't start to get good games until 1 year after release
>>538405826The next generation of gaming systems is going to be delayed longer than typical i would assume.The price point they'd have to ask otherwise would be exorbitant if the hardware inside was genuinely any more capable than currently existing system's.Ps5/Xbox x already is costing nearly 1k today and the parts in it are shit that was available 6-7 years ago they're probably losing money on hardware purchases too as is typical.

>>538405826>What went wrong?Your choice of a board.
>>538405826Everyone followed the 3DO model of pricing things up, pitching it as an adult "entertainment center", and failing to adjust to the realities of the market. At this point a game console is just a PC, Steam has taken over, and the only solution is to create a rival website with better TOS. But it's amazing to see all the consoles become exactly what 3DO aimed for in 1993 and start to fail for what in many ways are some of the exact same reasons.

To be fair is the PS6 a desktop replacement? As in when you're not playing games on it you can connect a mouse and keyboard, and browse 4chins from your living room?
>>538405826Do dumb niggers still play slopsoles? And now for the price of a good PC that you can pay hundreds to upgrade in 5 years time? It was the same 20 years ago, why do you fags keep giving them money? How do you retards keep getting tricked into this?
>>538422056I haven't gamed in long time but I'm guessing it's the convenience of knowing the game is going to work perfectly out of the box as opposed to (at least how it used to be) where you spend 6 million hours configuring your system just to get it to run and another 6 million hours tweaking the settings to get the most out of your gaming rig without it slowing down, meanwhile if you get a virus from email or surfing a naughty website...
>>538405901You sure nailed the date. 2014 is when they stopped making movies as well. I used to go to theatres monthly to watch "fun movies" like Transformers and shit like that, but they stopped making those too. Literally everything is for 68 IQ now.>>538410153Hahaha, how much money did you give them last year? I actually wouldn't mind greatly increasing my spending on gaming if there were any good games, but nothing new has been made since 20022002: GTA32025: GTA52002: Morrowind2025: SkyrimLiterally, after the transition to 3D, nothing has been done except throwing in a few animations in RDR2
>>538405826No physical copies
>>538422479And they increased the game file size x30.I don't give a fuck about your hd textures.
>>538405901This. Imagine preordering something that can't be sold out. They've got you around the testes.
>>538406115This. $1000 is the new $100.
>>538422056I always wanted a gaming pc but I was always a poorfag. I can afford one now, but I have no room. Well, maybe I do now. I finally made myself a bedroom and have reorganised it in such a way that I could fit one in if I get the right table. But I have to now find and buy or even make a table that fits in the space and I've just been putting it off. I hate looking for furniture. It is usually shit and overpriced, and i'm all out of scrap woodI'm currently posting on an 8 year old laptop. I wouldn't play games on it. So for now, I have to deal with Snoy. They are getting more greedy and despicable by the day. You know that if you don't log in within 30 days, you will lose all your games that you bought digitally from the point they implemented this rule? You know that you have to identify yourself now to use in game and psn chat/messages? (I didn't verify, never will)It's so bad. It's so fuckin bad. I can no longer support this. I'm not buying any more games on psn and just gonna let my online run out and then by then hopefully I will have a PC setup sorted. Maybe I will just not even bother with games so much. There are better things I could be doing with my precious time
>>538410914Less than 1% of people in the US make minimum wage. Hell, my teenage daughter works at Starbucks and makes $20 before random small tips.
>>538405947It was, but you could get it for like $99 in 2000 or so, 6 years after its release. >>538406115>>538406296You don't understand how inflation works.
>>538422890>I can afford one now, but I have no room.You need far less space than you think. Look into SFF PCs.
>>538410153Get a hobbie or avenue of entertainment that doesn't require you to consume like a mindless retard, or better yet, pirate stuff you like so you stop giving niggers and kikes money.So yeah, start doing creative things, find a cheap hobby/timesink, or stop bitching and pirate shit.

>>538416529The entire draw to a console was that it was far cheaper than a PC but also limited in function by being gaming exclusive hardware, there was no need to turn a console into a PC it was never meant to be. People wanted a cheap alternative to a PC and they got that, so it wasn't an "unwanted division". PC vs console was more about mocking console users for being lowbrow plebs, a console was intended to be a poor's gaming platform from the get-go. As their use became more widespread the mockery died down, since console manufacturers began stuffing high-end GPUs into their shitboxes, using it to justify price hikes. Consoles are basically mini entertainment centers these days, even allowing one to browse the internet, console makers lost the script and just started making what is essentially a PC without workspace functionality. Consoles are dying out as a means of entertainment because of it, since at the same price point one can purchase a ready-made PC that will run any game on the market and also function as a workspace.
>>538406115if you life in a car eating cold pasta maybe.
>>538426285>PC vs console was more about mocking console users for being lowbrow plebs, a console was intended to be a poor's gaming platform from the get-go.I beg to differ. PC gaming didn't match consoles until the 360 era, as far as games go. The vast majority of the best games ever made before 2005 were console or arcade game. PC could never touch arcade in the 80s and 90s, unless you have an $8000(1980s dollars) Sharp X68000 or something like it. PC gaming was ass. Amiga? The fuck? Turrican is SHIT compared to Contra 3 and Contra Hard Corps. SHIIIIIIT!I'd say it was Doom 3 and TES Oblivion that made people give a shit about PC games. Right around the time of DX9. Then Crysis came out and showed the world what PC GPUs could really do.
>>538405826the ps1 could not do 4k. if u think about it, the price per pixel per frame is still a bargain
>>538405901This guy understands

>>538405826I comically stopped playing computer games after GTA 3 was released. And by 3, I mean 1. I started playing again during lockdown. I have a good PC, probably costs more than that piece of shit. And I just download games for free. Why do people even own consoles?
>>538426699>I begYou're welcome to your own opinion even if it's wrong. Gaming wasn't the sole purpose of a PC and barely factored in until the early 2000s, the thing about PCs was you could swap components with little fuss to upgrade. A console user was pretty much locked into buying a new system every 5 years or so and still is to this day to play the newest titles, the next logical step for consoles is some sort of upgrade path but they may just cut loss to become PC companies with a gaming focus.
>>538426903PS1 had games though. What's the Price Per Good Game (PPGG) of PS1 vs PS5? How about the PPGG of PS2 vs PS5?
>>538406115Yeah but the ps1 wasn't a bleeding edge console like the ps5+max or whatever the $1000 version is. The ps3 retailed for "FIFE HUNDRET AND NINETY NINE DOLLARS" at announcement in may 2005, which is worth more than $1000 accounting for inflation. The price of console hardware has been shockingly consistent for the last 3 decades. And game prices have been dropping over time relative to inflation until very very recently.
>>538405826
>>538427287PCs evolved so fast in the 90s that they were basically obsolete within a year of manufacture. Meanwhile, console games actually get better as the generation ages, because developers learn more about getting the best performance and effects out of games. GT3 vs. GT4 on PS2 for example. The Neo Geo is another good example. Its earliest games look like ass compared to the later games. The Neo Geo had a 13 year lifespan as well. No PC could touch it in 1999. You weren't playing a game like Metal Slug X on a PC.

>>538405826Interesting. The drugs cost the same.

>>538405826First it was just another form of entertainment Now it became just another form of monetary exploitation Thank the Jews for this.
>>538405901FPBP. GTA5 was the last game I purchased. Everything after has been dogshit. It's not like the industry doesn't know what we want. The just refuse to give us what we want out of spite. Also women.
>>538405826You're right, I wouldn't even pay $1 for a ps6.
Electronics were expensive af back in the days, a dvd player used to cost $1500.
>>5384058261000/129.99 = 7.6929...2025 - 1995 = 30ln(7.6929...)/30 = 0.068...Basically matches M2 inflation rate.
>>538412149Yes it ios inflation. Run the M2 money supply annual inflation calculation. Consoles were already minmaxed and couldn't be made cheaper which is why they kept pace with M2:>>538433252
>>538405826You want a PC but can't afford one so Sony is helping you to cope.
>>538432757That's fuckin sexy.
>>538406115$299 in 1994 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $664.56 today. This reflects an average inflation rate of 2.58% per year and a cumulative price increase of about 126.13% over the period.
>>538427381This. Lots of things are cheaper than.Labour is really expensive. Try paying anyone to do anything.
>>538405826Its an evolution of computing that needs revenue to cover future endeavors. What ? Everyone in the world has been paying more for new tech every generation cycle, its nothing new.
>>538406310yeah, this.
>>538405901FPBPEverything went downhill after Overwatch
>>538405826That design is fucking trash>it needs to look different!!Looks like shit
>>538405826I remember years age normalfags laughing at me when I was playing retro games. Fast forward to today, & those same people now want to play retro games. I was 20 years ahead of the learning curve in the 2010s.
>>538434268>future endeavorsThey made all the games digital so youre only borrowing it now. For full price, you get to borrow it.All this gaming shit needs to die, not only to deny the present generation but to make sure it will never happen again, nobody else can be this disappointed again.
>>538405901This! I haven't bought a game since Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced and never looked back. Now i just collect funko popsā¦
Games got more expensive and somehow worse. FFVII completely mogs FFVII remakes (inb4 muh graphics). The new games are just yet another unreal engine game with the same slop elements and walking simulator movements. No soul at all.

>>538425894Yandex is a good alternative.
>>538405826Nigger culture. Playstation has been trying to be the Mercedes of consoles for awhile and I dont mean that in a good way.
Its not hard bros>becomes mainstream >dark souls easy mode when >muh hardware >muh subscriptions>everything diluted The next phase is coming where anyone can throw together some bullshit Unreal will prob be the youtube of gaming
>>538406296NES games used to cost $20 way back in the 90s. Your average video game was about $20-$50 a pop once the PS1 & PS2 came out & that was way back in the 2000s. Any new game now will cost you $50-$70 a pop now. Modern gaming is too expensive now.
>>538434531Its all about cooling a small tower without noisy fans.
>>538406045It started with the PS2. I never understood why they changed the console to stand like a tower when the PSX & PS1 design had a more user- friendly way of inserting the discs.
>>538405826Judaism

>>538435170y'know... new shape = good ooga booga
>>538435130Big name titles were always the most expensive games. But I still remember getting games at $20 as a kid.
>>538432757Fuckin PEAK!!
>>538434902you're a fuckin retard, sonic games were always $60+, there's a pic above that proves it. so easy to spot zoomer posting
what are these consoles called?
>>538434902Modern games have MMO and MMORPG servers. Someone needs to pay for the servers, infrastructure and power it uses.
>>538435339thats an xbox and a dreamcast. My dad worked at microsoft
>>538409391His skinny little legs crack me up every time.
>>538435339Top is PSX (PS1 2nd generation). Bottom is PS1. The PSX was a smaller compact version of the PS1. Pic-rel. You could buy a small screen attachment if you wanted to play your games on the go.

>>538435826Based, Nintendo stole the idea for switch.
>>538410153This has been something people on /v/ have been doomsaying since horse armor. Giving publishers and game companies money when they implement anti-consumer practices has led here. They KNOW the average retard will still gobble that dick at full price for a new release of Cawadooty: Ape Niggers and FIFA Current Year with their surprise mechanics.
I wanna go back to PS1/2 level graphics and gameplay. I miss when games felt like games. Nowadays they're just films and simulations. Astro Bot was a step in the right direction but came out 20 years too late.
>>538407920Actually they're antichrists it's blasphemy to refer to them as Jews
>>538405826>1.000$I'd buy a PS6 for one dollar. Hell yeah.
>>538405826They had successfully expanded the market up through the PS4,but things went wrong after SIE became an American company in 2016.
>>538434902What planet are you on mate.PS these are US prices not Canadian.
>>538435086My PS2 has always sat flat. It's actually the perfect design because it can sit whichever way fits best in your entertainment center.
>>538438690Earthworm Jim 2 is the only one worth its price.
>>538436838i basically stopped gaming when game designers thought they were talented enough story tellers akin to film or literaturethis shit was creeping in the industry in the early 2000's, and it kept getting worse and worseit reached the pinnacle in this pretentiousness in the ME series...ME3 especiallythe story itself is like the lamest, shittiest scifi story - it would be like Starship Troopers if ST took itself seriously i don't even consider what came after as gaming, rather just corporate shilling reaching it's logical conclusionanytime an industry gets big enough where parasites can see an avenue to siphon money, it's beyond over
>>538435381most stuff isnt' even considered even close to mmorpg. but they have to track your stupid dumb hats, cosmetics, other assorted dumb shit noone cares about. All of it, and that stupid shit costs every body money. And how they bitch about own server hosting
>>538438893Good take.
>>538406092based. fuck Cloudflare too
why bother with a console with a hebrew OS that does't allow to use usb devices unless they have been (((licensed)))>uh yeah sorry timmy that steering wheel, gamepad and joystick you bought and have been using for years on pc unfortunately aren't licensed by sony so they don't work
>>538405826>What went wrong?You fuckers started using games as a way to check out from society en masse, instead of as a pastime. This is obviously unacceptable, so the price hikes will continue until morale improves.
>>538405901>>538405947lower your tone when talking to the Spaniard. I was glad a thread that was not toxic was made.>>538405826what went wrong? it started out bad trying to be a console for "Adult gamers". nightmare fuel like Crash Bandicoot is what went wrong. Nintendo is king like Coca Cola is king, not this RC cola bullshit.I don't know the first thing about modern games, but there was this aberration called "Detroit become human" that might as well be called Libshit the game. it plays out like a movie where you make ethical decisions, so it is not fun to play. 2 things that stood out were the bisexual Robot strip club where the fuckboy robot treats his detective human partner like a father. Hey pops buy me this Ho' ( it was another male and h ogt called a pervert) and the Holocaust level where you're an abused bitch Robot with the little girl Robot you're protecting that gives you the option to fight back against the Gestapo and steal their gunz nigga I just wanted to play another Perfect Dark or even fucking Halo and I get all this army propaganda. not paying for any of that shit.
>>538405826If you don't write it as:>$129.99>$1,000.00You are a retarded monkey.
>>538439285also: the Zelda and Mario games became more dumbed down and insufferable by Japanese pedophiles and "targeted at kids" that we get stupid fucking zoomers now who grew up with that brainrot shit.when they could have been normal for everyone. that's what happened now buying a switch is a cuck meme or some shit people get enough of your money, they pull this shit. a shittier restaurant with less food portions, a movie that blatantly insults you to your faceyou wanna be a heckin' adult with the ladies? stop giving them your money
>>538439316Funny, in this case i would rather meet a Spanish girlfriend at a Cafe that wrote 100$ than have the official Facebook give me Orwell nightmare on Estella from great expectations ghosting me congratulations on winning the poverty ball

>>538427381I never thought I'd say this but goddamn do I miss may of 2005
>>538406092if you download pirated games, there's a 99% chance you have keyloggers, crypto miners and all types of ill shit on your systemthink about it for a sec, why would ANYONE host several terabytes worth of infrastructure, maintain the site, crack the games etc and so on, all that work all that effort, without getting anything out of it in return?remember, it's kinda like social media: if you aren't paying, it means you are the product. with social media, you pay with your data. with cracked games, you pay by getting malware on your systems
>>538405901This is the only correct answer. Supply and demand. The big gaming corporations found out they can sell half-made games with bugs and no content for 100$. They found out that cattle buys it, most of the time based on the franchise or the distribution company. Examples: >Blizzard never makes a bad game.>Final Fantasy VII spin-offs/remakes.>Call of Duty.They just understand that consumers will buy anything, so they sell anything. Investors jumped into the train and corporations started making games that could sell. It's multifactorial, but the reason it keeps going is because people still buys games.The gaming industry must crash as soon as possible. It's over saturated anyways. It's worth losing 90% of gaming companies even if you don't see it now.

>>5384058261 dollar wow
>>538406535look at this little retard thinking prices go down over time. that hasn't been the case since 2019.
>>538406115Wrong. It's equivalent to ~$3200 todays $$$Learn to calculate exponentially
>>538406865You should look up whaat the best CPU you can get for the socket is, sometimes you can find them for only a few dollars and it can be a nice upgrade, I had my 2500k for 10 years and when I found 3770k for $5 on ebay it was a significant perfmormance upgrade
do you people actually buy it because it has shiny lights blasting nonstop?
>>538444345You underestimate just how brown the world is now.
>>538443115For me not being able to jailbreak a gaming station is a deal breaker

>>538410153I dont wanna hear a wod about prices then you fucking faggot.Kys
>the only things keeping people from killing themselves are bread and circuses>consistently make bread and circuses not only less affordable but also lower quality all-aroundthey really don't feel like they need to give a shit as long as they stay afloat a few more years until 2030>>538405901yeah this too. it's really pathetic. games have hardly taken steps after late ps3 era so if you kept looking back and buying used ps1-ps3 or even ps4 games, you would not give them any money and still have hundreds and thousands of hours of games to play. you don't even have to pirate either, they allow borrowing games from library at least around herebuying the games used btw is one of the big reasons they don't want discs even if there are other reasons too. they will make absolutely 0 money from second hand games no matter what the price of the used game is
>>538456689there were some positive signs when apparently cod sales went down too much even if they have almost infinite money so they are not starving but they still need people buying product. and people being overall more cynical about new games and preorders and what else but maybe that didn't actually mean anything and it was just some people on youtube comments saying that. most people will complain and still buy

>>538405826>What went wrong?Trump tariffs raised the prices of everything + Trump deregulating AI companies caused them to triple down on data centers causing memory and gpu prices to skyrocket as they hoard the components. In other words you voted for it.
>>538405826The PS1 was 299 USD and even that was a killer price, for as console with a CD, back in the day. You werent even born, kid!
>>538461673The PS1 came out in 1995 in Europe. 31 years ago. I'll bet 90% of /pol wasnt even born back then. How could they know!?And here I am, with my first PC being a Windows 95 one...
>>538461673The PS1 was cutting-edge technology at the time, not just a PC in a case designed by fags.(Some PS1 tech is still impressive even today, e.g. their streaming video system.)
