I think I am going to go Xbox next time around for console games. The PS5 has been a let down in terms of game selection and overall improvements. I actually get mad when I go to look at games in the store and the ads and clips are blurry and low res because Sony dont invest in their backend to stream at a decent resolution.
I bought a meh pc yesterday because Im going to use that moving forward, pay for myinternet once and use it when I want.
If you think the ps5 game selection is bad wait till you see what xbox doesn't have. And everything exclusive to xbox is on PC. Sony has been absolutely mopping the floor with xbox this gen, which is probably why they think people will spend $700 in the pro.
And how's your internet? Because I've never thought the videos on the store were bad enough to complain about. Might not be 4k but its never been blurry for me.
I have had the same issue with 10gb and 1gb internet. Their store has terrible optimisation even though they baked it into the ps5.
Sony puts their games on PC too, I just dont want to support them anymore. I will probably go pc fulltime. I stopped with Nintendo too because of how badly they sucked.
I really love the Switch form factor and detachable controls. I bought a Steam Deck instead, though.
It's okay. You did the same as me but skipping the steps where you spend the money on a switch, and then leave it in a drawer when you get tired of games that play at 27 FPS, which you're lucky if you manage to get with a 20% discount after tracking them on dekudeals for months.
