Well I don’t know if it’s such a ripoff.
Just the other day, I was watching a video about how much it would cost to build a pc with similar power to the ps5 and it was at least 750$.
Also you have to factor the fact that you have to make researches to create a thinner ps5.
I’d say what’s not okay is that you have to buy a new stand and some of the ps store/ps plus prices.
Consoles don’t look like ripoffs yet for me.
You can build something much more powerful than the ps5 for that cost
@Pasta4u try said the same thing almost 4yrs ago. Like to see a $500 4yr old PC run FF16 at 4k in quality mode.
Ps5 came out in Nov of 2020 sp you couldn't even buy a ps5 four years ago.
It also doesn't matter because this new slim system just came out. So you are already informed throwing another $400-500 at just a smaller version of the console or you are buying new in which case you can build a pc that is much more powerful
Also ff16 does not run in 4k native.
