I mean those are really dumb reasons to choose a console over. The point arises, if you're going to play it at all. Ain't the whole point of the console the games it has? And also fanbase, what a dumb reason. I salute to you mister. I haven't heard such a dumb reason in a while.

But listen. You can always get a ps as well. So it's not the end of the world. I've had ps4 and now ps5 for a while. And I'm kind of done with it to be honest. It's basically the same thing one after the other. I might get an xbox at some point, but I might as well sell what I have and be done with games in general.

For a ps4 owner, I would not recommend ps5, because you will end up playing the same games you played on ps4. Literally the same games, with some fancy improvements. Core experience a carbon copy.

I also disagree with your assessment that the xbox menu looks better. It looks ugly as shit.

High end rare games are on a DOWNWARD trend right now. Literally noone is grading games ATM 'cause you can buy them graded for the same price as raw. Now is the time to BUY ---- not SELL.

My advice? Sign up to Heritage Auctions. They hold Weekly (Tues Night) auctions that usually end pretty cheap. Then they also hold SIGNATURE auctions (every few months) where they high end stuff, and they high end rollers come to play.

Also, check out GetTheGregGames on Youtube. He covers this stuff extensively and also has live reactions to the auctions.

Here's an older print (1981) promotional copy unopened that sold for 9.6k in 2020.

Edit - I just want to iterate that this would NOT sell for that much in 2022. You are looking at a few grand. 2020 was weird...

Controllers I'm assuming will phased out, just like the console - some may stay in circulation, but let's say somehow every ps1 Controller ever made somehow broke tomorrow that would be it, they're all gone - no more of the official playstation ones. However 3rd party Controllers would still probably be made

I see no reason for Xbox if you have a PC. I have xbox game pass on my PC and it sits next to my PS5 connected to an LG CX Oled. It's just a big xbox that plays pc games, mods, pays bills and all of the other stuff PC's do.

If you want to see Playstation exclusives just Google GOTY nominees every year for the past 12 years and you'll find 2 or 3 almost every year.

Ok, so it just can't run everything max settings. I am in opposite situation, I have xbox and looking into getting pc. Regarding your question, check some PS exclusives games gameplay on youtube and if you like them then get PS. Otherwise get xbox. Btw, some sony games are also on pc now and more will come.

As a user of both the Xbox one S and PS5, I can confidently say thus far I’ve used my Xbox more, but I can assure you that I much prefer the PS5 console, as soon as discord voice is on PS5 my time on the Xbox will be reduced drastically
