I thought the big thing with these ninth gen consoles was that they were powerful enough upon release that's there's no need for a mid gen refresh this time.

sigh literally just got my PS5 like 8 months ago.

Why do gamerstm get excited about being exploited like this instead of getting mad about being ripped off?

Lol some slightly better frame rates and visuals at best.

Oh, really? I didn't know either of those things. Thanks!

Still not buying it though.

Yeah don’t blame you. It’s a good console, but not a lot to play on it that you can’t play elsewhere.

Gaming is an expensive hobby. My PC was around $1,500. I prefer the console because it’s silent and smaller, and it runs slightly better than my PC. But any option other than a Switch or a Steam deck is gonna run you a few hundred at least.
