    Honestly? When PS3 happened I said enough regarding consoles and didn’t buy a single one since. I still have a GameCube and PS2 packed in a box somewhere. PC. The device never changes, I can just upgrade it myself.

    I’m not sad for scalpers. Reselling has trashed the used market for everyone.

    I don't get why anyone would want a console when you can play games on a PC with mods and much better graphics. If I can't mod a game, I will lose interest in it pretty quickly. The last console I bought was a PS3 and I really only got it to watch blurays on.

      Because you can just sit and play. No doubts about if it will work nor performance, no adjustments, no stress of any kind, just play. I like PC gaming, but consoles have their appeal.

        Unreal 5 has not been kind to this argument

          Fair, but that's not a console problem, they shipped the game in a bad state. (Or, at least, that's my experience)

    sounds like if you can't scalp it inside the return period, you probably shouldn't have bought it in the first place.
