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.

    I’ve genuinely seen 0 improvement in video games from the PS3 to the PS5. Just a waste of 2 generations of systems because you dumb ass gamers eat this shit up.

    All they did was made you pay for online services to play digital downloads and the gamers licked the bathroom floor with glee.

    They aren’t even making sequels, it’s just the game I played on PS3 with better graphics.

      doubt

      This is not me standing up for the peepeepoopoo 5, just saying that’s a wide enough time span where there’s been a pretty noticeable amount of turnover in design tends, etc. Plenty of games from the seventh gen absolutely feel dated

        The biggest game companies are just re releasing their 7th gen games over and over again

      Yes blame the consumer because we’re the ones with the power here not the vampire ceos who took control of all the game companies and turned them into soulless profit machines
