It looks like this PEGI - a self called experts - finaly got slapped in face. But what a worst thing is, it looks they even didn't play game before, because normal, reasonable thinking person, couldn't give Balatro 18 and claim it is about gambling (contrary to FIFA and its "booster packs"). So it looks PEGI is another useless institution that even doesn't do it's job right.
When Phil Spencer first showed it to me, where he had an Xbox controller and this model basically took the input and generated the output based on the input and it was consistent with the game [that was] a massive moment of ‘wow’. It’s kind of like the first time we saw ChatGPT complete sentences or Dolly draw or Sora, this is kind of one such moment." is translated as "Wow! Money printing machine! You have money printing machine! Now we will release milions of so called games for free and those idiots (customers) will buy as crazy!" "Exactly..."
Pro is rather enthusiast thing. Contrary to PS4 era, this PS5 brings especialy higher price rather than higher experience. But it all doesn't matter while this or next year we get PS6.
@Oram77 Yes, but question has been already placed in article: "But some fans feel that Sony is diluting PlayStation’s appeal by releasing on PC – after all, why would you bother owning a PS5 if you can play all the games on Steam?"
I'm still angry to myself I've exchanged my PS5 copy of Demon Souls for Diablo 4 crap (I'm lifetime fan of Diablo series... except Diablo 4) but at least I have my day one PS3 copy.
@LogicStrikesAgain Open PS store, open Deals tab, filter Full Games and Bundles, change sorting Cheapest first and voila... you have looooong list of slopware
FragFX (half controler, half mouse) was my best friend for FPS on PS3 and PS4. It is absolutely perfect solution for exPC players, especialy when right stick is heavily limited with it's 1cm movement radius. I would lovely use mouse again in point click adventures, FPSs, iso RPGs, strategies, browser (if PS5 has updated). So many games could be way faster to play. I don't care multiplayer, so I don't care if it is banned for online.
I'm not fan of big RPGs anymore. I always turn every stone just to check everything, finish everything, collect everything and than finally complete main story. When credits roll I take game as closed and uninstall. Unfortunately most new RPGs lost any sense. Side quests are locked until main story is finished, collecting something has ceased, secrets are gone too and crafting has no meaning... so I just finish story and things I can do on the road.
I think I cannot remember RPG, where I was able to go where I want, do what I want, when I want. Last one was Sacred 2 ???
I bought only a very few digital games, and only because they were not released on disc. Pre-owned or "on sale" disc games are way cheaper than digital versions, still faster way "from buy to play" and (with few exceptions) your own working copy that can be run anytime anywhere.
98% of my digital library contains PS Plus monthly picks.
...also Sony's statistic betrayal, because they SELL you these games with 100% discount...
I can only say that when PushSquare release article "There is massive PS Store deal containing 2500 games" you can bet your house 2480 of them is this slopware.
I'm not against porting games to PC, but Sony should learn that trick PC gamers basically focus on performance! They paid way more money on heavy machine so they expect it will work way better than plastic box under TV.
The second thing is Sony probably never seen Steam action sales and offers where you can grab AAA titles for a price of coffee.
@__jamiie PS5 is another level of this... there are almost no games only for PS5. It is Sony's thing they still focused games on PS4 and thrown PS5 into despair of live service madness for 4 long years. But they didn't made PS5 Lite, weaker than PS4 and force developers to release games for this on day one.

It is choice that don't affect result, only the way how things happen, than why not? AC has lost it's track long ago, so why bother?

Why buy $600 console if you can build $2000 PC to run these games?

Re: Poll: Would You Buy a PS5 Mouse Accessory?
@Northern_munkey I've put aside my FragFX after reconstruction of my flat. I've find out how to play FPSs on controler (it took me only 18 years).
