:ROFLMAO: They've hit new levels of desperation to stop Playstation's dominance.


The ignorance and stupidity in this article is astounding.



Acting like most PC gamers have PCs powerful enough to game or even play Sony's games at comparable settings to a $500 PS5. Also assuming people are prepared to wait years for these PS5 games to arrive on PC if they ever do is moronic. This is even before you take into account the console gamers who have ZERO interest in building or gaming on a gaming PC.


I'm a very invested PC gamer as well as a PS5 gamer and this article is beyond stupid. Even with my top end PC that is way more powerful than my PS5, I can't even imagine waiting years for Playstation games like God of War Ragnarok and Spiderman 2 to get ported to PC.

It's amazing how much it bothers people like this that the PS5 is a sales juggernaut. First party games that may or may not eventually come to PC is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for yet another anti-PS article, though. I wonder if MS directly pays for these kinds of takes or if it's just expected given the venue.

The OEMs pay to have windows installed on devices, so if you've got a home PC MS has already been paid, true.
Not just OEM.

Organizations, companies want to use Windows and other services have to pay. That is where their massive revenues at.


They also did some few things to shitcanned their competitors, lobbying and astroturfing. A true monopoly.

Yep I'm aware, but that's not relevant to you or I using a PC for leisure.

I've seen quite a few people talking about how there's no need to have a XBox console due PC releases being day one. This has been a common response when talking about the latest console sales numbers. Makes me wonder if this is another version of 'Sonytoo'.

This is even before you take into account the console gamers who have ZERO interest in building or gaming on a gaming PC.

This is a good point. There seems to be an attitude among some that console gamers are just people who don't know they're PC gamers yet. I appreciate the strengths of PC, but prefer to game on console and have done so for decades now.

Pathetic article. Nobody wants to fuck someone who specifies "Windows PC", and also doesn't mention both consoles require a subscription to play online. Raise your game, Samuel Tolbert. You're better than this. I believe in you even if they don't.

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
