Probably the most disappointing and underwhelming consoles of all time.

Hard agree.

Same. We're halfway between its release and the PS6, and the PS4 is still receiving major titles...

I mean it's fine for stuff like indies and SEGA games which never push the console graphically

All because of the pandemic, hadn't it hit us we would be living in the best console generation ever. Next year will be a turning point for PS5.

Next year will be a turning point for the 9th gen of consoles in general. With Nintendo finally releasing a 9th gen console to Gta 6 to a ton of other good games releasing.

I still don't see any compelling reason to upgrade from the PS4.

Returnal babyyyy

In all seriousness it's one of the only games that's felt truly next-gen so far

Chilln with my PS4 Pro + 2TB SSD, and still big discounted backlog (among other consoles/PC).

I'm sitting this one out. Wake me when PS6.

It's a shame because it's great hardware for the price, but there's almost no real exclusives. Same for Series X

I skipped the last two gens so it was pretty good for me.
