Could PS5 go through it's whole lifecycle without being available to most people?

[Utilit99 4,099]

Then PS6 comes out and PS5s are all over the place?

[Djgb13 2,338]

Nah. Took what? A decade for the PS5 to come out? Maybe longer? Either way, I refuse to pay more than $50 over the actual price of it. Let those other idiots pay the big money for it 

[SUXBNME 1,359]

It's like it took longer for GnR Axel to release Chinese Democracy

I got mine out of sheer luck via Best Buy back in January.  Miracles do happen!

That's why I say I got lucky.  I didn't see a post regarding restock until it was too late.  I decided to go to BB website anyways and sonofabitch I managed to snag one anyways.  Didn't even have to hit F5, it just happened.

We can’t make sh1t anymore. Fockin miracle the COVID vaccine happened. We’re working better than ever on some levels but 95% of it is flailing 

[titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745]

No. It's life cycle is a decade. If the economy is that focked, video games are the least of your problems.

Probably because we have unions who force higher wages for inadequate results.

I have my PS5.

[edjr 5,721]

Hasn't even been a year. Everyone that wants one, will be able to have one by this Christmas

[Reality 2,711]

Not sure why anybody would deal with that, very easy to switch to the available console.

My son said screw it and bought the new Xbox instead of waiting for the PS5 to be available.

My ps4 sounds like a jet engine all fired up  whenever I put a game in to play. Any game.

I cleaned the hell out of my ps4. Spotless on the inside, including the fan. At least from what I could take apart anyway. Oh well. work has been busy anyway and my girlfriend and I bought a bunch of awesome board games that we play.

Bunch of console queers.  PC Master Race!

[DonS 3,096]

Not to get too off topic, but do any of you subscribe to Playstation Now? 

I never really considered it before, but a couple months ago I was all set to purchase/download a game from the Playstation store.  The game was SOMA - very good, btw - and during checkout it mentioned it was available as part of Playstation Now subscription.  Game was $30, year of subscription was $60.

Ended up going with the subscription and have since gotten way more than my money's worth.  Allowed me to try some games for sh1ts and grins as well as some great titles like Borderlands Handsome Edition and DOOM (2016).  I have many more lined up once I have the time.

Actually, the only reason I can still play video games at 49 y.o. is the PC.  If the wife came home and saw me sitting in front the tv gaming out on a console... not a good look.

Somehow the PC makes it ok. I might be working. I might be playing chess. Or I might be killing losers by the bushel in Battlefield 1. Nobody knows.

I loved PC games more than anything at one point. Half-life was simply amazing when it came out and I engulfed myself in it and was happy.. :Sigh: I'm living off my work laptop these days.

Yeah, I joined it. Make sure you grab your three free games each month. Don't have to download them, but you always can if you claim them.

I've enjoyed some of the free ones here and there.

Are you talking about Playstation Plus (or whatever it's called) that is required for online multiplayer?   If so Playstation Now is different.

Yep - me too!  And, believe it or not, I also picked up a RTX 3080 on the same day ALSO from best buy.

I'll never be able to repeat that type of luck ever again.

I think I have plus, yeah. You get three free games a month you can add to your library.

Pretty sure Plus comes with the membership and 2 free games to download each month. Ps Now cost a extra $10 a month but can play a lot of games right away without downloading.

Wait a sec.  I thought you got one for Xmas (via wife winning raffle - aka sucking off a geek squad member) and then you gave it to your son? 

So now you have 2 PS5s while many BIPOC children have none.  You white privileged bastard!!!!

Not in my case. I bought mine to help me unwind after pounding your mom in the ass.  Helps me to overcome the intense shame and personal loathing I feel, and to get me ready for her next visit.
