Gamers may have begun to shy away from the now more expensive PS5. U.S. April data highlights a 30% decline in PlayStation console sales compared to the previous year. Before the impending Switch 2 price increase, Nintendo’s handheld extended its lead over the competition.
Buy a PC? Ok, let me just go to the PC store and say, “One PC, please.” It’s that simple, right? I don’t have to do hours of research to understand what the components are and then even more research to understand which ones are best?
Be serious.
There are websites that have recommended setups for you to configure and you can ten order the parts to the shop and people will build the PC for you.
But then again, you don’t seem to be interested in any sort of solution for that matter though as far as I can tell
First of all, pointing vaguely at the internet and saying there are websites is supremely unhelpful.
Second, why would I need a solution when I can just buy a console and not have that problem in the first place?
Ah shit, I should’ve known you’re banned from using search engines and can’t just lookup a single phrase like ‘recommended pc builds 2026’
I don’t get it, you’re obviously extremely uninterested in having this conversation - and yet you’re so invested in it.
Isearched that phrase just for fun, and it turns out a budget PC is $800?
I’m not interested in discussing all the reasons PCs aren’t a good fit for me. I just don’t like when PC snobs act like it’s the right fit for everyone. You’re obviously the “invested” one here.
Alright my dude, in that cause you’re just a dick I guess
I was only saying that getting a PC really does not have to be as effort consuming as you may imagine it to be, hoping to potentially give you some new options.
I’ve bought a PC before, so I know that you’re not being honest. Whether or not that’s on purpose, I’m not sure.
whatever
Mate, a new PS5 Pro is $900, Slim around $700. Thats what the whole post has been about.
You’re just trolling now.
Getting piled, but you’re right
Even if you get that all sorted there is still the form factor as well. Consoles usually offer a small form factor for their performance which van be attractive for people who game on their living room tv. Pc gaming is still mostly associated with desktop gaming which is not for everyone.
It is. You can absolutely buy completely configured and built PCs if you want.
If you go to a computer store and tell them you want a gaming PC to replace your console with X budget you will walk out with one.
