    I’ll end up getting PlayStation 5. I’ve always had PlayStation, it’s what I’m use to

    I won’t get both because I like gaming but not that much

    Yea i have the same reaction and feelings towards the One and X.

    I’ll keep playing my Switch and buy the PS5 at launch since it’s backwards compatible with PS4 games. At that point I’ll give my PS4 to a family member or friend. Not sure what games will be available at the PS5 launch though. If there’s nothing that peaks my interest, I‘ll wait for the first price drop too. No reason to upgrade if none of the new PS5 games look fun.

    You honestly don’t, you just have to be sensible.

    You can get a Ryzen 3600 & an RTX 3070 you’ll be set for the whole generation whilst the first 4 years at least outperforming consoles. PC games have more sales & are cheaper at full price too, no online subscription, higher frame rates, more customisation in game, mods, no generation upgrades like having to buy new accessories & “upgraded” versions of last generation games for no reason & you can use the computer as a computer outside of gaming, it’s a no brainer to me these days.

    I’ve had my GTX 1080 & i5 4690K combo for around 4 years now, I bought the parts used & half of the games I throw at it still hit 4K 60fps which the most powerful consoles of this generation would dream of being able to do. I’m in the process of upgrading due to the new consoles coming out & I’ll be able to sell the parts for more than a current generation console.

    Continue playing switch/ps4 and will get ps5 at a price drop probs cuz I heard it's gonna be $500 and I can't justify that purchase right off the bat.

    Absolutely nothing about the xbox one was appealing to me and I don't know anything about the Series X but sony has been consistent every generation.

    Got mine in the mail today and find out the upgraded version of madden won’t even be available until December, so now I have a $500 box sitting on my floor collecting dust. I guess I’ll buy the new call of duty tomorrow just for something to play but f--- man!

    d---...yeah one of the biggest reasons I don't f--- with people selling consoles for a higher price is cuz you know there's some desperate parents out there who don't have much money but are trying to do a nice thing for their kid for the holidays.

    Fam, I’m dying out here. Best Buy is some b---- a--- n----s. My delivery said today, now it’s saying tomorrow. n----- this the wackest s--- ever. I don’t wanna play my f---ing ps4, b. I rather beat my meat against the couch than play this s---. I spent 544 dollars or whatever it was. I wanna play some next gen s---.

    b---- a--- Best Buy. f--- you n----s. Dead a--- last time i was at Best Buy physically was to meet SLAUGHTERHOUSE. World star hip hop gave me a slaughterhouse air freshener, and some fake Money to throw during the performance of throw it away... inside of a Best Buy. Got to meet the group tho. Meeting Joe was awesome, Joell was a loser but really excited to meet someone slightly interested in him, Royce is an alcoholic b---- that wears sunglasses inside, and Crooked I just be there.

    random story... f--- Best Buy. Still got that autographed cd somewhere

    Nah I'm just pullin yer chain, that's a gift and I'd never take back a gift regardless of financial situation...though if you can budget a ps5 for me and @BIGFOOT that would be cool.............

    Scalping for tickets, consoles, anything like that above their MSRP is extremely weak to me so I'm glad you won't pay for that to keep their biz going. if you buy a bunch of concert tickets and sell them for more than you paid for them you're definitely going to h--- tbqh

    Step one of purchasing a PS5, get a TV that does it justice. I've had my TV now for about 7 years and even then it was last year's model.

    It's a Full HD 3D TV. It was great when I got it and it's still doing great now but I won't see the visual difference moving from a PS4 to a PS5 without utilising 4k.

    Therefore this is on my hit list. 6 months ago it was £1699. Last week it was £1399. Early Black Friday deals online have brought it down to £1299 today.

    I'm going to wait until Black Friday to see if it's reduced any more. If it goes to £1099 then it's a done deal and I'll pay for out there and then. £1199 and I'll strongly consider it. Anything more than that and I'll wait until the 2021 model is released and this goes down in price because of that.

    Missed this post—I don't think it's very fair to say "without the story this game would be shallow"....well yeah. That's removing a vital portion of the game. Is the gameplay revolutionary? No, but I thought it was extremely fun with an engrossing story.

    I've seen people criticize TLOU gameplay before, but I have no idea how you'd call God of War a walking simulator. I thought it was very well balanced with combat, puzzles, platforming, etc—in addition to having a great story.
