hold out for KFC console

There’s now literally little value in buying an Xbox IF you have a very good gaming PC. Most if not all Xbox (and non exclusive PS) titles will go to PC per Microsoft’s Phil Spencer. Even PlayStation is slowly starting to go that route; the value of that PS5 hardware is now questionable with its PS NOW going to PC with 90% Sony exclusives being there already and most will appear some day.

Long story short, if you have a PC, you’ll still be in business without any console whatsoever. Xbox is almost redundant in that case, but PlayStation may still hold value as your single console for couch gaming.

Just my opinion.

Only PS5. It’s definitely better buy. Backwards compatible means you can play all PS4 games. //@anonymous: I will wait PS5.

I've used Xbox since 2007. But I may check out PS5 once I get tired of my Xbox One (I think I have a good year or more before that happens). I want to play through the God of War series pretty badly. I may make the switch. :) //@Anonymous: Only PS5. It’s definitely better buy. Backwards compatible means you can play all PS4 games. //@anonymous: I will wait PS5.

Go for PS5. Xbox designers made it impossible for owner to make any DIY upgrades. Xobox also have a very complicated and shitty user interface. Sony designed their systems more user friendl both hardware and software.

All these paid PS bots digging on XBOX. Both consoles are nice, this time XBOX has a better system and they have consistently shown. Excited for this and other consoles.

What upgrades you can make on playstation but not on Xbox? Can you name any? I know ps has better exclusive titles and gamer friendly UI, but just do not fool people from the aspect that is not supposed to be. //@anonymous: Go for PS5.

Never heard anyone call the PS4 interface clean or user friendly. No complaints about the hardware but the home screen is awful //@Anonymous: Go for PS5.

If you think Xbox UI is complicated, I don't really know what to say. It's quite customizable and most of the important functions are in the guide button by just holding it down. PS4's UI is so primitive and lacks functionalities. //@Anonymous: Go for PS5. Xbox designers made it impossible for owner to make any DIY upgrades.

Agreed, I have an Xbox one, and I have no substantial issues with the ux, I do find it annoying when I try to prioritize the order of my downloads, but its a minor and occasional annoyance. I have t used a PS in 15+ years, but the Xbox ui is fine. //@anonymous: If you think Xbox UI is complicated, I don't really know what to say.

Maybe want to try last of us 1 and 2 also. I only play single player games so playstation is a must for me, just for the exclusives. Oh and Bloodborne, even though it's older it's still my favorite game on the platform //@anonymous: I've used Xbox since 2007.

Replacing a PS3 or PS4 hard drive is so easy that you only need to take out 1 or 2 screws. Replacing a Xbox hard drive or doing any upgrade is so difficult. I just don't like the way they design it and made it so freakin hard to made any future hardware changes. And please, I am not a spam robot.

Here is what you will need to do to replace a Xbox hard drive with something bigger and fast.
"In order to reach the hard drive, you’ll have to rip apart the case, remove the console speaker and WiFi board, then unscrew and remove the chassis. From there, you’ll have access to the Blu-ray drive and the hard drive"

When I replacing my PS3 and PS4 hard drive, it was so freakin easy. 2 screws on PS3, 1 screw on PS4, then just pull it out directly from bay

Reminder that the Playstation Vita was $250 USD during release in 2011 (equivalent to $348 USD in 2023), a system which alongside having the ability to stream games from both the PS3 and PS4, allowed you to play native games and use it for other purposes like web browsing, mp3 player, emulation, etc.

As a father of two tiny people, this is a godsend so I can play without hogging the TV. But make sure you look into it before buying, it's very limited. Only works only home wifi, NO BLUETOOTH FOR HEADPHONES, only wired headphones will work unless you pay $150 or $200 for their two new headphone options. The old Pulse 3D headset I already have won't even work. Some disappointing lack of features for sure, but again I am still very excited to get one for my personal situation

With all due respect, are you absolutely sure? This is counter to every description I've read. You have to be on your home Wi-Fi, according to Sony. I figured there may be a tricky hacker-man way to play remotely, but it doesn't appear to be intended. //@anonymous: Negative. you can play anywhere as long you have a Wifi connection and your PS5 is in Sleep.

Can PlayStation Portal™ Remote Player only be played on my home Wi-Fi network?
While your home Wi-Fi network represents a great option to use PlayStation Portal™ Remote Player because you have control over the quality of your own home Wi-Fi, it is not required. PlayStation Portal™ Remote Player can also be played wherever you have access to broadband internet Wi-Fi with at least 5Mbps for use*. For a better play experience, a high-speed connection of at least 15Mbps is recommended. If you are using public Wi-Fi, be aware that the quality of the internet connection may be out of your control, and could impact the quality of your play experience.https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/buy-accessories/playstation-portal-remote-player //@Anonymous: With all due respect, are you absolutely sure?

This is not even the REAL portable device. Its merely extension of your PS5 console. It wont work without your main PS5 console. Thats why the price is $199. Tbh, its ridiculous stupid. the device have to stay within the perimeter of your wifi & your PS5 console. It looks cool etc, its not the real portable device. Thats my 2 cents. //@anonymous: Reminder that the Playstation Vita was $250 USD during release in 2011 (equivalent to $348 USD in 2023), a system which alongside having the ability to stream games from both the PS3 and PS4, allowed you to play native games and use it for other purposes like web browsing, mp3 player, emulation, etc.

i think the point they are making is that the vita is a $250 full-fledged portable console while this is a $200 screen and controller that cannot operate away from your $400 console... it does kinda seem like a step backwards in technology. //@anonymous: So what? //@Anonymous: Reminder that the Playstation Vita was $250 USD during release in 2011 (equivalent to $348 USD in 2023), a system which alongside having the ability to stream games from both the PS3 and PS4, allowed you to play native games and use it for other purposes like web browsing, mp3 player, emulation, etc.

I think they’d never make that again since no one is developing games for a mobile platform outside of phones. PSP/vita and ds games were mobile only games whereas even the switch lite plays full switch games. I think this if fine as an accessory esp since it’s the same price as their elite controller and people were pumped about that. For my purposes I picked up a refurb steam deck from GameStop for about 30 bucks more, installed chiaki so I can stream from ps5 and heroic launcher so I can play my free epic games, and can still play most steam titles and emulation

I have one, can't live without it. That being said, lag is an issue. It's almost certainly not even bandwidth dependent. It can be frustrating, but most people can find a solution. I get brief lag for about 1-2 seconds, which can happen either every minute or two, or maybe once in 30 minutes. Reading up on it, this is extremely common. Jsyk

Just get a steam deck or legion or something similar. Absolutely don't make sense to pay money just to play online with friends. Games also much cheaper too.

no they're not. a PS5 is $400 and this is $200 so that's $600 meanwhile a Asus Rog Ally is only $400, Steam Deck even less. //@Anonymous: those are 3 time more expensive! //@Anonymous: there is no reason for this to exist when the steam deck, asus rog ally, and lenovo legion go do the same things but better and dont need a home console anchoring you down

With my original ps5, a dumb step that worked to stop the lag was leaving the TV on WHILE I played on the portal. Since I bought a ps5 pro, I no longer have any lag issues. //@anonymous: I don't think it's dependent on internet connectivity. Wi-Fi, I believe, is more important.
