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.

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

Bethesda: 2002>2012: Morrowind to Skyrim, huge changes in gaming

Ubisoft: 2003>2013: Prince of Persia to AC: Black Flag, huge changes

Rockstar: 2004>2014: GTA: SA to GTA5 , huge changes

Naughty Dog: 2004>2014: Jak 3 to Last of Us, huge changes

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

Consumers of luxury goods can be made fun of.

I didnt say they can't be made fun of. I said placing the blame on them is misguided.
