    Well, everyone say hello to the $1000+ PlayStation 6.

    What’re you going to do, buy an Xbox? Build a PC with a GPU alone that costs almost the same?

    No Xbox means Sony gains a monopoly on the console market. Unless Nintendo decides to actually compete with regular hardware again, which they won’t.

      Nah, I’ll just keep gaming on a cheap Linux PC and fuck ever buying a console again. Honestly at this point a 5 year old GPU gives you access to 99% of all games ever made, why spend so much to play 4 shitty ‘AAAA’ games a year?
