What is the benefit of using a console?

I could imagine it is helpful when someone is unhappy with their lives, so it helps pass the time without having to use the help of drugs, but other than that?

If you are asking that question, you may as well ask “ what is the point of watching TV?”

Drugs and consoles aren't an either / or.

Dunno about the games being crap. With Unreal Engine 5 they might at least look good. Stunning graphics on the PS5

Worth having the new consoles if you want 4K games though. I bought a curved 4K monitor recently.

So you have a choice of buying a console that looks like a WiFi router, or one that looks like a mini fridge. Take your pick

You might not be the target market, so don't worry about it.

Utter tulipe game demos so far

I might hold out till PS5 Pro since Sony dropped the ball and Xbox Series X more powerful

Going to take 2-3 years before new game engines designed to only work on new consoles will appear, until then it’s commercial suicide to only target new hardware

First time that I won't be buying a Playstation within 2 months of release. Just cannot be bothered with gaming as much as I used to. Still got a PS4 and a couple of games still in their shrinkwrap on that.
