Not anymore useless than the PS5 is now that the PlayStation exclusives are on Microsofts platform. Makes sense to buy the console with the best hardware, games, services, cost hence getting the Series X for the living room 👍

PC doesn't get exclusives for 1 to 3 years after release, if ever. PC already has Xbox games since they have zero exclusives. PS5 with PS Premium and a gaming PC with Game Pass both connected to an LG Oled in the living room is the setup.

No point in getting a ps5 anymore if you already have a Microsoft PC. All the desirable PlayStation exclusives come to the Microsoft PC now. Best is PC to play the few Sony exclusives and a series X in the living room for everything else 👍👍

That doesn't seem fair on PS5 tbh. It's not like Xbox has bad controllers, just the opposite in fact, they have fantastic controllers.

I'd say its a choice of exclusives, go with whichever has the best ones for your own personal preference.

What kind of games do you play and what are you looking to get out of your system?

If you love single player games, the PS5 will have plenty of good exclusives for you. It also has some nice recording functionality, a fancy controller with haptic feedback, however in my opinion the user interface is lacking compared to xbox. PlayStation has typically had bigger, more popular titles in their exclusive line-up. I moved from Xbox one to PS5, I don't think I personally make the most of the exclusives on PlayStation, as I prefer multilayer experiences.

Xbox will offer game pass, giving you access to alot of games for you to try and if you enjoy playing enough of them (subjective) you could find yourself saving a fair ammount of money. Xbox also tends to have more indie games / early access titles and allows players to access public test branches, in other words, niche pc games that have been somewhat popular (eg, Dayz, Space engineers, Ark survival evolved, Arma etc etc) all came to Xbox first. Games you buy on xbox may also be playable on PC via windows store and there is a lot of backwards compatibility. Xbox also has better a better communication platform (forum's, lfgs).

xbox because… I have an xbox since i’m a kid, forget about it. honestly the only real difference between both consoles is the game pass and te exclusivities. Basically the same speech all over again: one has a lot of amazing games, the other has amazing games and an awesome game pass. So yeah, I feel like this comment section is about to become a war zone between playstation and xbox. I think both consoles are worth it, but I never played on playstation. My experience with xbox is great.
