Is it worth it? I am kinda tired of gaming behind a desk(not that i will stop) and i want to lounge on the sofa playing vidya. Is a PS5 worth it? I'm also DYING to play Death Stranding 2 and want to save up for GTA VI. Looking for advice or personal experience with the console. Note that i already have a gaming pc that covers my needs(rtx 3060 ryzen 5 5600G)

I just prefer couch gaming and yeah I love the PS5. Plays all PS4 games too. Dualsense is great and Death Stranding 2 utilizes all the controller features. I have a PC that I use if I need to for a game that doesn't have a console version but it's low end.

I wouldn't get a base PS5 unless you sit really far from the TV and don't mind (or don't notice) low image quality.

I have a steam deck and a ps5. I'd say if you really want to play console exclusive games then go for it. personally, I don't want to fork over half a thousand just to play something that's going to be on PC later down the road.

I got it recently, kinda had to decide between it and a Nintendo Switch 2 but it kinda won me over because of the games i never got to try (Also cause of Marvel Tokon)

only buy it if you really liked death stranding.
the only other worthwhile game is the DeS remake

If you can pirate games on it yes, otherwise no that would be extremely dumb.

with the money you have for a ps5 you could get a 9060xt. With the money you get from selling your 5600g and 3060 you can get a 5700x3d. Get a mini keyboard (Rii makes some good ones) and a long hdmi cable if you dont wanna move your PC

Fuck no.
Any sort of CONSOLE is a waste of money and a scam in 2010+15. Period.

Just connect your fucking PC to your TV and use a big picture mode. But prepare to have shitty back and eyes when you turn 40.

PC is better for couch gaming because you got much more exclusives and retrocompatibility with older consoles

Yeah, base modle is cheap, games look and play great and you can always jump into older ps4 stuff or get ps+ gor some eksluzives on the go

Its definitely worth it. /v/ is filled with sony hating PC gamers so you won't get many honest answers here though, do some research on your own

It's not.
But couch-slouching with a gamepad definitely is a mark of a mouth breather.

>HDR
Is a stupid meme.

Found the Snoy pajeet.
Enjoy wasting 800 bucks on the nogames SJW console + 80 bucks (+ tip) for the "games".

I dunno, are you okay with playing at 720p, 25 fps average, with heavy TAA? And paying 79.95 for each game?

Show pecs, fag.

HDR is literally as big of a meme as RTX.
If you got even a remotely fine monitor / TV, and play games not made by UE5 toddlers, you absolutely do not benefit from that shit.
