What are the consoles even doing that's interesting anymore? For what they were worth, the only one doing anything was Nintendo and they quit with the Switch 2 being "new" in the same way that the Google Pixel 10 is "new" compared to the Google Pixel 8 (or even 9). Consoles are legitimately just boring.

PCs have only been expensive since 2017 because GPU prices. to be specific only GPUs are expensive since 2017, the rest of a PC is still as cheap as ever.
before that PCs were last expensive in the early 2000s and it was mainly in terms of value over time. the rapid evolution made your PC obsolete so fast that if you calculated in "how many years of gaming can I get out of this price" it was bad.

from the early 2000s until 2017 PC gaming was a cheap hobby and unambiguously cheaper than consoles. do you guys even realize that console games were already 60 bucks in the 2000s while PC games were always under 50? do you realize that both consoles have been charging a subscription just to access multiplayer since 2013 (Xbox since always) and on PC you just play for free?

the crypto bubble of 2017 (still on-going) and the AI bubble of recent years extended the business model of consoles by over a decade. but MS is giving up as the margins aren't there (Xbox now just means gamepass, yet another subscription scam) and Playstation is losing billions on failed game productions and forced to give its exclusives up to PC to make some of its losses back. both are likely selling hardware at a loss because it's not like AMD is a charity or lacks other customers.

Nintendo are their own thing and aren't really susceptible to anything going on the rest of the market so I'm excluding them from this analysis. they will be around longer than any of us. and I will still never buy a Nintendo system.
>>
>>720398548
You play for free on PC but have to deal with hackers and stuff.
>>
>>720398783
there are hackers on consoles nowadays, too. and on console you're limited to only controller with auto-aim at a stuttery 55 fps so you basically can't enjoy shooters. at least I couldn't. I played Halo 3 (28 fps, horribly buggy netcode) as a teenager so I understand that people can ignore the jank of console multiplayer under some circumstances but that was 18 years ago. 18 years of discovering higher framerates and getting good at mouse aim etc. we can't all be new and ignorant to gaming forever. I see console gaming as an entry to gaming and when you become an adult sooner or later you either quit gaming or you graduate to PC. over time the average gamer age increases and thus naturally PC gaming should win in the long run. and that's exactly what we saw as a steady trend for like a decade until bitcoin destroyed the GPU market.
>>
>>720399359
Ps5 supports 120fps in multiplayer like COD.

>>720399434

Knowing Valve, they're going to have one with an LCD screen and one with an OLED screen out of the gate in order to have a lower price, not having dedicated NPUs and AI Accelerators will also help a lot in lowering the price.
>>
>>720403181
oleds aren't expensive
phone makers can sell you a phone with an oled screen for sub $200
valve can not only subsidise it but also with the increased production and shilling of the eck 2 they'll have the economy of scale on their side
>>
>>720403795
Cool, hope by either 2027 or 2028, Nintendo has a Switch 2 OLED ready to go, I want both. You can tell the Switch 2 was supposed to launch out the gate with an OLED screen, but Nintendo cheapened out.

Remember when back in the 90's, even in shitholes like shitzil and such, you could afford a new house and a car and still have enough money to buy a PC with a multimedia kit like a packard bell or such because even with the shittiest wage you could afford without a problem?
They probably are kvetching hard over crossing a point of no return with their jewery.

>>720398548
GPU prices skyrocketed mostly due to miners and scalpers, and with Nvidia helping with that because ATI/AMD shot themselves in the feet hard for nearly a decade.
even PC monitor prices went to hell due to 4k memes.
And zoomers + zoomlenials who cant even get a job courtesy of the barney boys generation of millenials(aka 86-89) cant afford that anymore, because all of them still lives with their parents because housing is expensive now.

huh? early millennials are keeping zoomers out of employment? early millennials themselves are unlikely to ever own a house. I'm only a few years younger than that age range and nobody my age has shit in terms of assets. my peers are barely starting to have some kids now, and it's only the ones who lived the perfect normie life with no gaps in their resumes.

What exactly is the rationale behind getting a console at this time? PC will let me get virtually every game that's worth playing with forums dedicated to providing fixes, patches, mods and so forth whilst quite often providing those games for free. I cannot fathom the idea of buying more than three 30 USD games a year and yet console piggies simply must if they are to try something. Absolute loonacy
>>
>>720402550
They want to make the Switch look bad, it's the same with the Steam Deck on the PC handheld side. Gonna be glad when PlayStation and Xbox finally die.
>>
>>720409573
Maybe a lot of people just want something they can plug in and play without having to mess with everything inside of it? And its a small fraction of the cost.

>>720409695
But then steam has enabled the exact same experience. You find your game, buy it, download and play. It even organises it into a library for you. I can assure you that any game that's being played on a modern console is going to run out the box on PC as well. This means that by default a PC is offering you an on par console experience, especially since it has become a rarer event for a game to be true plug and play experience on console. Cost will accumulate greatly with time. 80/year for using your own damn internet + extortionist pricing for obtain video games when the PC is offering you every generation free of charge is just too good
>>
>>720410492
Console doesnt deal with hackers though and PC is way more just to match a console. And PC also cant play GTA 6 on release, which is going to be huge.
>>
>>720409573
Nothing, consoles are Nintendo, PCs are Steam, and GTA 6 won't save PlayStation or Xbox, if it costs $100 it's going to kill Rockstar and AAA gaming as a whole. This is why Snoys and Xbots are afraid, they know their time is coming.

Consoles absolutely suck now. My One X died in 7 years, which, yes, is about it's expiration date, but when that dies, I can't fix it. My PS1 worked up until the day I got rid of it and probably would have lasted years ahead of now. My PS2 works. I even have working 360's, albeit, they are deteriorated. Why would I play on console if I can play on PC, use the internet I pay for without and additional subscription fee, and on top of that, have freedom with all of my games? >>720396503

>>720419051
They don't need them but they're going to start making them and they'll be exclusive to Steam and PC. No other launcher on PC, no consoles. Nintendo and Valve are about to show Sony and Microsoft why exclusives matter. Can't wait for Sony's and Microsoft's handheld plans fail. When they do, you Snoys better not go larping as Tendies, Deckies, or PC vegans because your PlayStation and Xbox died.
>>
>>720396351
If you've been paying attention for the past 15 years you realize that yes, everyone is slowly trending towards PC over time as they realize consoles are shit value in comparison for all the obvious reasons
M$ can fight this by making their hardware just run Windows/letting users install Steam/giving up on a sacrosanct Xbox ecosystem, and having their boxes competitively priced vs prebuilts
Sony will go as long as they can on brand staying power (fumes) alone
Nintendo is lolz you can emulate their games a year after the hardware launches
Things will become strange and violable in short order from here
>>
>>720419498
Microsoft's strategy is already failing because the Steam Deck exist, because the Steam Deck 3 will exist Sony's fumes are already going out because the only thing different about the PS5 and PS6 is ray tracing and AI upscaling. Gaming belongs to Nintendo and Valve, Valve the company you like to act like doesn't exist. Nintendo owns consoles, Valve owns PCs. You Snoys and Xbots will kneel like the worthless bitches you are. Console and PC handheld gaming belongs to them, not Sony or Microsoft who are on their way out the door. Anything else to try to sing praises about them is pure cope, nothing else.

Not true. Only middle-upper class could afford this shit, computers didn't truly become a commodity until 00's.

This anon is right. I prefer to play on consoles though. Close OS which gatekeeps shitter while PC is rampantly full of them and every multiplayer game is broken. I only play PC for RTS games like total war.

When the PS4 released I had (still have) and athalon II X4 and a GTX 660 which cost me 300 for the GPU as a mid spec at the time, and it was still more powerful than the PS4.

There are very few games on console that even hit 60 consistantly.
120fps is only possible with the equivalent of 'Preformence mode' PFSR.(Sony's FDR equivalent) which makes the game look like dogshit.

You're 100% right and spot on for Microsoft. The next gen Xbox will be the Xbox full-screen experience from the ROG Xbox Ally but without the Windows desktop or Game Launchers. It'll have backwards compatibility though as a replacement while only being able to access the Microsoft Store. I'll only be sold on the Microsoft Store similar to how Valve handles the Steam Deck for $1000. It's also going to be sold only in NA and UK, nowhere else. Microsoft is shifting everything to Windows and OEMs with the console only existing as some Game Pass box. Sony is divesting in PlayStation hardware so maybe the Canis is a little more important than the Orion but it's clear as day with Sony's multiplat push for everything similar to Microsoft's, they're also on their way out. The Canis and Microsoft's OEM Xbox handheld using the next gen box's APU but with desktop, launchers, and no BC, just feels like one final desperate fight against Nintendo and Valve in some fight they've already lost.

It's rumored to be coming in early next year to PC and Switch 2 in the "Grand Prix Edition". There really isn't a reason to own an Xbox.

Good, gaming needs a reboot, or needs to finally die altogether. The shit that's been acceptable for the last 15 years needed to end

I honestly have more faith in Valve and Nintendo than I do in Microsoft or Sony. Woke is on its way out, and Sony and Microsoft are still pushing it, it's sad.

Gaming is dead, this is why you won't see good software anymore. It's all gonna be gatcha, liveservice or spreadsheet simulator games. Video game software innovation and quality is driven by console manufacturers and developers working with them.

>>720396351
it's no coincidence that as consoles die gaming in general dies too. We gonna be playing Roblox and Fortnite for the rest of our lives.

>Push out the elite devs that innovated and grew throughoutf the 2000s and 2010s for third world pajeets and defeated lazy people that drag their feet after pushing out their team leads
>Games looking generic, playing like something stuck nearly 30 years in the past and and random variations of a fortnite map using UE5
>Meanwhile Asia is selling you Pokemon #35 and Souls #24 while clones take up their market because they don't know how to develop anything new
Only took political activists to get promoted up to hate on their own teams and customers to rot their entire business and cripple major sectors of their industry.

Hopefully zoomers are aware that technology has stagnated and console makers are milking hardware sales because 5 year lifetime cycles.

A video game industry crash is long over-due; but, "accessibility" being the catalyst for it -- the literal race to the bottom, in pandering to the lowest and most disloyal and fickle market denominator -- is a rather delicious irony to relish.

>reality check: mystery meat zoomers love or are indifferent to "woke", and are too dumb to be politically discerning, and too lazy to be politically active anyway

Nintendo could have thousands of Wii U eras in a row before they would have to declare bankruptcy. They barely lost money, it was like 2 Concord budgets for all that time.

This is why Nintendo made the Switch and Valve made the Steam Deck. They knew what they were doing.
