This trash site also wrote something similar about the Steam Deck and told people to get the Ally instead just because it has Windows 11 and comes with a GamePass subscription. What a joke!!! These guys are literally in Microsoft's pocket

it's literally in the name of the site lol, they probably are funded through some shell companies that MS owns

No they’re not explicitly affiliated with Microsoft but of course they’re getting rewarded by them in some way. Regardless, you can hype up and shill your crappy Microsoft stuff without trashing competitors. That’s distasteful, disingenuous, and horrible journalism. No other enthusiast website does this.

Don't forget to factor in the pc tax of selling your grandmother to pay for that system to run them.

The vast majority of people are better off getting a PlayStation system, it's far cheaper and you don't have to wait for the next ice age to start to play them.

Is Demon souls on Pc yet?
Nope. But as I said, not every game will be getting ported over.

Many Sony great console games continue like The Last Guardian or Bloodborne as console exclusives, and some of them will continue there forever.
Yea, that's true. Bloodborne isn't even on PS5 yet. If it ever did get a remake, I'm sure they'll make the PC version too.

As of now only some games have been ported to PC and released around 2 or more years after their original release.
Yup. Most PC players don't mind that.

So PC players will continue having to wait for years to see if they get a PC port or not of the games they want. And some will never be on PC.
All acceptable. It's better than the contrary of having 0 games from Sony like before.

I don't feel that PC players are super eager to play Sony exclusives. If they were, they'd buy a PS as many have mentioned here.

At this rate they should start a PlayStation boycott on the ground that it doesn't have Starfield and Starfield was originally going to be published on PS.

HA HA HA.

Real funny. You love trying to reveal on these forums that I'm VFX as if it's going to somehow make a difference on these pages as to how people reply to posts from me. If you truly want to announce to these forums (since bringing it up over and over again doesn't warrant the response you want) -- create a thread about it. I'm sure some of the mods here get sick of you bringing it up over and over as a personal attack but go ahead and ignore them and entertain yourself once again.

Oh and continue selecting the left button with your assault on MSFT by shitting on their games since it's allowed.. it's quite entertaining to see.

I can say the same thing about HFW. I also have a PS5.
i am so confused, i thought you were in the camp saying that the article was true and that there was no reason to buy a Ps5

But you also quoted earlier

While true, that's not enough of a reason to buy the console. The PC will get the best of the exclusives as has been the case.

So which is it, sounds similar to some strange version of cognitive dissonance.

Also hi VFX,

The article is true, but I disagree with idea of not buying a PC.

I think the article makes a strong argument about buying a PC and waiting for all the exclusives (ones that make financial sense) to play on the PC.

I disagree with not buying the PC because you don't get ALL of the exclusive games. Some games just don't make financial sense to port over. I believe all the more popular games that Sony brings will be ported with 99% certainty and all one would have to do is wait to play it. Just because the PC version comes out 2yrs after initial relelase doesn't mean that the game becomes "worthless" after that time. It's still the same game and it's going to play and look better on the PC.

Just imagine how much money you would save by playing only with the same deck of cards for all your life? no PC, no console, no smartphone, no nothing!
