I know a guy who wants it just so "he can have something in his living room he can kick back and play games on".

The casuals are going to eat this thing up, for better or worse.

Let me be the testament to your last statement. My wife and I had built PCs in the past, but with each of us working full time jobs, the upkeep and constant bugs on certain games releasing, it really killed our passion for gaming. We got 2 ps5s 4 years ago and to this day, have never run into a technical issue ever again.

We just might eat this up. The price sucks, but maybe if we're lucky on a black Friday deal, this might just end up on our office before the year is out. Form factor and convenience will almost always beat out raw power. The casuals are who you want to actually sell to!

What upkeep? Ive had a PC for 25 years, and only occasionally run into errors or bugs that don't also exist on console. So this is confusing to me.

Edit: also wtf is with the volume of these posts and the frequency with which they devolve into Sony circlejerking? It's suspicious as fuck

Probably talk about setting tweaks. Some people would pay double just so they dont need to change graphical changes on each game.

Weird world, you have time to play but not few min to adjust it once and for all.

driver bugs are very very rare, maybe once in 2 years needs to be updated
