If all the playstation are available on pc, why do you need to buy playstation?

If you pc that can ran with better graphics, why buy playstaiton?

If online on pc is free? Why pay for ps plus?

If you can buy game on Steam summer sales for $5, why buy games on playstation for $70?

If theres a great exclusive games on pc that you cant get on playstation, why buy a playstation?
There is no "need" with video games. They're a luxury. If games are available on multiple platforms, you make your choice based on a variety of factors. Are you telling me you cannot think of any reason as to why someone would choose to buy a Playstation except for 1st party games?

"If your PC is better, why buy a Playstation?" Well my PC is better than my Playstation, but I have a Playstation so I can sit on the couch. So I can play it on a 55" TV. Because, compared to other Platforms, I like the UI and the controller, because I have friends on that Platform. Consumers may make this choice based on value for money, or having a fixed amount they can spend.

You pay for PS+ if there is a network effect and you have friends that you play with. I don't generally pay for it because I don't play online games usually, but same thing with Switch online and MH Rise, just pay when you want to play. If you're poorer and can't afford multiple games, cost of a sub to get new games every month also a reasonable decision to make.

Playstation also has sales. Though Steam has a much better refund policy, so it's definitely better to buy something on Steam than PS and is a fair point of comparison between choosing platforms.

Again with your final point, you ignore everything that a PS is beyond what games it plays. The majority of the market is 3rd party games, for consumers the choice is holistic of everything I've mentioned. I bought an Xbox one to try Sunset Overdrive out on release and the Xbox one SUCKED in so many different ways: batteries for controller, controller had weird edges along where palm gripped, UI was terrible, and so on. These are all differences that persist regardless of game availability.

You keep circling around and continue to dodge to answer

Just answer the fukin question already

Whats the point of owning playstation given the reason above( their games are heading to competing platform)
You cant answer cos you already lost the argument and ran like chicken. Good day
bro this troll did the exact same thing to me in another thread....I asked him a simple question and he couldn't answer it for hours and kept dodging the question.

He's a hardcore Xbox fanboy pretending to be a PC gamer, just ignore him

No, it was a rumor from some Belgian embassy, but it did sell 2.5 million in early access and since the early access was only on Steam, GOG and Stadia, it's fully expected the game sold like 2,4m at least on Steam in early access, this was also when the game had like 60k reviews on Steam, now it

EDIT: nvm, I wasn't reading correctly

the amount of gamers who benchmark isn't that high, benchmarkers are major enthusiasts about tech.

If so why are you so adamantly Playstation? That I don't get. The only reason you like Playstation is because it has games, but you're against those games going elsewhere because....?

1: Your library of games are all there, if you move to PC, they won't be.

2: Your friends may still be on PlayStation, you would have to have both to stay in touch or play with them


two very good reasons why one would keep a PlayStation. I could probably think of more if I really needed to.

Ding, ding, ding!

It's amazing how with enough time they actually negatively reinforce the platform they are so attached to. He actually spelled out a list of negatives to him as a consumer for staying locked into PlayStation, and yet he persists with reinforcing it.

What does that tell you?

Fanaticism in a nutshell...

I'm running into this a lot around here, and frankly it's getting tiresome. Many people have no issue with firmly stating something and then when contested with a strong opposing argument they pull the plug on the conversation.

Color me unsurprised.
You have blatantly lied several times since your very short tenure here and try to play the victim. You're a case study.

You get a ton of great benefits with PC, that is my opinion, some people may not like the hassle of maintenance (opening it up and cleaning it), updating drivers (if ever needed), a bunch of software, all the part prices, upgrading, downgrading, whatever it is. The best part about PC for me is how modular it is, you can do quite literally anything you want to it. Some people don't like that responsibility, so some will always opt for a one time payment of a box you can turn on and sit down, immediately launch a game, and play from there, no real tweaks or anything.

Of course the argument you have to tweak everything to get it working isn't real in the first place, it all works unless you try to play something OLD that hasn't been updated since the early 2000's, then you may have to enable a compatibility mode or patcher to get it working with modern hardware (i'm looking at you, Crysis)

BUT.

As I said, some don't like that, sure you can set your PC in the living room and do as you would a console, but you still have to worry about all the other things I listed, Consoles are simply easy to use, the downside is generations die out, the PC however, doesn't.

No youre actually being stupid

What im doing is the opposite of staying locked on ps ecosystem or persist reinforcing it

Given that if pc has the advantage of having all ps games im ready to abandon it and went all out for pc instead

*citation needed*
Just a few hours ago you were criticising the PSVR2 remote and then basically admitted you haven't used one.

Just yesterday or the day before you accused me (using a meme of all things) of basically saying that outputting at a resolution is the same as image reconstruction. Then you demonstrated being at the peak of mount dunning Kruger.

I can go further back, but I thought these two examples would suffice, and quite frankly you're doing a damn good job at being just another sad poster that cannot have an honest conversation, either due to intellectual dishonesty or lack of intelligence. It's just getting boring.
