Good soup! posted:

they called the fifth PlayStation PlayStation five

it seems better than calling it "Playstation Again" or "Playstation No Don't". Personally I think naming something Five when it's the fifth of something is ok.

Like if you said
"I'm gonna go play my Playstation Again"

or
"I'm gonna go play my Playstation, No Don't."

People would look at you like it was no big deal or that you were arguing with yourself like a homeless person but instead you're just telling the world which version of the playstation that you're off to go play video games on. Which would be the fifth one.

An Xbox Next?

who knows

I got a piss4 because more people I knew at the time had them and still didn't play poo poo with them but it also seemed like the "better" console this last time around, whenever that was?

I just read some article last week that now the new xbox looks like it's VERY marginally maybe better but they're both pretty much the same, so...gently caress if I know about that aspect. I'm just getting the ps5 because now I have the ps online account and crap. As for 'getting on release', sure. Go for it. I think consoles usually get better hardware on them later, but it's usually a couple years into production runs after they figure out the ram starts on fire after 3 months of use in .005% of them and poo poo like that. They don't, like, suddenly get new chipsets and stuff.


e: oh that was a honeypot to trick me into saying I read an ars technica article about playstations two weeks ago or wherever it was that I saw the thing? drat I'm undone.

Is there really a point to the PS5? Has the PS4's potential been reached?

That would insinuate future consoles cannot increase the brightness and sharpness further on Spidermans crotch and I refuse to believe that.

There was a browser game that I can't seem to find for you right now, unfortunately, that was basically just giving input according to the game's instructions (like "move your cursor here, now wiggle it, now faster, that's it!") and after playing that for a while I can't help but see computer games as essentially just variations of that idea.

Not if you buy it with bitcoin profits :smuggo:

Christmas came early this year.

Did you quote my post that was jokingly saying "The playstation is good" so that you could specifically come in here to say "I'm a bitcoin farmer and used bitcoin to buy one, look at me"?

Because it sure seems like you did do that.

The whole Kinect thing was loving dumb.

Not long into this gen, I went out shopping specifically to buy a new console, and my choice was Xbox One. I couldn't quite afford new, so I had to get preowned.

I went into GAME and asked if they had any preowned Xbox One consoles. Yes, they had one - but it didn't have the Kinect sensor. I asked if I could buy it separately - no, they don't come separately, so if you lose it or it breaks then you have to buy a whole new console. And it seemed essential to have it for a number of games.

At that point I thought gently caress it and just bought a ps4 and then bought a camera separately a few years later

why the hell did you buy a camera or want the kinect functionality at all

Big Beef City

Ah fair enough; I never thought (or knew to be frank) about the camera for VR.

Was the VR on play station worth it? It seems too late in the life cycle for me to consider it now and didn't seem "good enough" at the time for me to want it at release, did I miss out?

gonna shove a next gen console up my rear end. i probably won't survive, but for a noble goal sacrifices must be made.

I'm watching this in 3d VR and it's like I'm right there, experiencing having the latest consumer electronics shoved into my OWN rear end, in real time. Incredible.

I feel like flight sim (or a racing sim or a space dog fight sim or a space racing sim where you're a dog that shoots lasers at other dogs etc) would be what gets me on board too rather than, say a sword fighting game.
However, any of those types of games I also feel like would necessitate either a racing wheel or flight controller and pedals, etc. and jesus...

Big Beef City

I can.

I can believe that the prior generation's video game consoles shipped to the consumer containing platter hard drive disk units.
I also believe that the vast majority of those consumers were not affected by them in a negative way.

Thank you.

Big Beef City
Aug 15, 2013

Oh, actually, they just released a fix for that.
To resolve it you put the controller down when watching movies rather than sell the entire console because you can't figure that out.

Sony having the undisputed lead in the console wars from the PS2 only to poo poo all over themselves with the PS3 was really funny

almost as funny as when Microsoft returned the favor with the 360/one

they both tried so hard n got so far
but in the end
it
never really mattered

hell fuckin yea he does

I slam on my pissVR helmet and he "shares" with me and hot drat he really goes "whole hog" on the whole console. He's like a gay gamer tsunami on every port and vent hole that thing has and wishes it has. One time he brought a Gayme cube in for some twink action and the things he did with those proprietary controller ports was like watching Beethoven conduct a symphony assuming Beethoven was a fat gay moron with a hardon loving a gamecube on a webcam. Too beautiful for words.
