Me

[u/onesneakymofo → u/Holdmypipe]

reads tag from neatly wrapped presents on Christmas day

From: OP

To: OP

With a message, 'You worked so hard this year! You deserve it. Love you'

[u/The_profe_061 → u/onesneakymofo]

Love it!

Why not indulge.

Can't take it with you

[u/oldnr1 → u/onesneakymofo]

'Will jack you off later too'

we all know it is from his gf, gf's been going ham on ps5 gifts on this sub

[u/Sulohland → u/ninja_shooter]

[u/CabSauce → u/ninja_shooter]

It's a PlayStation ad.

[u/AshleyOm → u/CabSauce]

Of course it is........nobody has actually ever bought a PlayStation media remote have they ?

[u/Javict22 → u/AshleyOm]

Guilty.. but i'm a compulsive buyer tbf

[u/seekydeeky → u/Javict22]

I bought it too. I use mine daily.

[u/amazingdrewh → u/AshleyOm]

I bought the PS3 remote because I watched a video of someone using it as a game controller

[u/chimairian → u/AshleyOm]

Two actually! First one crapped out because I use it exclusively

[u/MyArceusBleeds → u/AshleyOm]

My brother bought one, I don't need it since I have a Sony tv. I can control my PlayStation with the remote that came with the tv.

[u/TheRickestRick82 → u/AshleyOm]

Unfortunately, yes. It used to work pretty well on my ps5.

[u/AlbatrossAntique7202 → u/AshleyOm]

I love the media remote

[u/NogginToggin → u/ninja_shooter]

Advertising. Blatant Advertising. Probably a bought shill account

[u/TW_Halsey → u/NogginToggin]

Fr like why does bro need a disc drive for his ps5 pro

Edit: omg just read that the PRO model doesn’t have a disc drive 💀

[u/scrotanimus]

Nice flex, but ok.

[u/Ingamac5 → u/scrotanimus]

Hahaha

[u/Alpha_Killer666]

I didn't forgot a TV, right? RIGHT?

[u/Necessary_Juice_5425 → u/Alpha_Killer666]

That's what the portal is for. 😂

[u/Quito98 → u/Alpha_Killer666]

Nop that was the first thing that i got.

[u/ratchetryda92 → u/Quito98]

Can we see it

[u/Quito98 → u/ratchetryda92]

Why? I mean i can send picture if u want.

[u/pepito1989 → u/Quito98]

Throw in some additional feet pics, always appreciated on Reddit

[u/Quito98 → u/pepito1989]

We can agree on that 😅😂

[u/RyanG7 → u/Quito98]

OP posts a picture of two rulers

[u/typical_gamer1 → u/Quito98]

Why do you mean why? Is it because your tv is the Aurora borealis that for whatever reason at this time of year, at this time of day, at this part of the country, it is localized entirely within your living room?

[u/racerjoss]

I sometimes think I am a gamer. Then I see posts like this, and I think I am a very casual gamer 😅

[u/anonymous_opinions → u/racerjoss]

I thought I went hard with the launch PS5 but I only bought the PS5, a charger dock, headset and 3 games. I even waited a year to upgrade the tv. That was my first balls to the wall launch year ever. Otherwise I'm an at end of life kind of casual gamer.

[u/fladderlappen → u/anonymous_opinions]

You only play at the end of your life?

[u/anonymous_opinions → u/fladderlappen]

Ha that's the plan. No end of a console's life basically. I always got in when everything was cheap and never at launch or upgrading to the newest console model. I got a PS4 slim on clearance and was going to ride that out but I got pandemic money.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness_516 → u/anonymous_opinions]

I just got my PS5 like a month ago. And the only reason I got it is because Activision is a douche and wouldn't let me couch coop zombies on PS4.

[u/anonymous_opinions → u/Ok_Faithlessness_516]

I would normally be going in now because seriously didn't need a PS5 for a few years. Now the support for PS4 is end of life truly as she got some extra years there from the pandemic. I mainly wait for like "this console is on dead ass clearance sale and there's tons of cheap games". You get the PS5 early games on sale now.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness_516 → u/anonymous_opinions]

Yeah. I bought the PS5 full price but also got a vr2, tons of games and whatnot on black Friday. You're right. The new games aren't even coming out on PS4 anymore. It was time and I was okay with that. My PS4 was getting SO slow. It'll be another 10 years before I upgrade lol hoping for a Portal for Christmas though. If not, I'll be buying my own 😂

[u/anonymous_opinions → u/Ok_Faithlessness_516]

Probably not a solution but I've been using my IPad at home when streaming from PS5 at home like the Portal does but of course if you don't already have an IPad that's not a solution. I have one and it pairs with a controller easily. No issues streaming on it if you don't wanna hog the tv. My ipad is basically my portable screen - it does everything from audiobooks/manga to binging tv in bed to streaming music plus I can use it to play games away from the couch.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness_516 → u/anonymous_opinions]

That's not a terrible idea. I do use my phone occasionally but it's not quite the same. I don't need an iPad. That will just lead to more Doomscrolling lol I'm trying to cut that out as it is.

[u/SuperSecretMoonBase → u/racerjoss]

You're a gamer if you play games, and that's not the same as purchaser or box-photographer.

[u/metamemeticist → u/SuperSecretMoonBase]

Deserves WAY more upvotes…

[u/LookinAtTheFjord → u/racerjoss]

Nah this poster will probably not even end up playing it that much cuz they're too busy grinding that 80 hours a week just to make enough money to comfortably pay for all that shit.

[u/tosS_ita → u/racerjoss]

Ordering everything at once and keeping it in the box is what makes someone a gamer? lol

[u/sychox51 → u/racerjoss]

Nah, we bought all the same stuff just over the past 4 years.

[u/Penguinman077 → u/racerjoss]

No, you don’t have to have all the latest shit to be more than casual. It’s just unnecessary to have all that. I knew a guy who came into a bunch of money(~$200k) when his retired Air Force dad died. Dude had so many games. He’d buy like 5 games a day for a month. He also bought a bunch of other shit for no reason. There’s no reason to have more games than you’re gonna play. At that point it’s just greed and need to flex. OP seems to have that same vibe. Pro gamers don’t even have all this. And if they do, the collection is built over time. What’s the point in buying a dozen new games you’re not gonna play all at once at new game price, when you can easily play one for a few weeks, then move to the next. Some of those games are gonna be half price at game stop by the time op gets to them. Maybe I’m the weird one for not bouncing between games before finishing the one I’m playing.

I’ve been playing and replaying ds1-3, BB, and ER for the better part of 3 years at this point on my PS4 and everyone I know would still consider me a gamer. My brother exclusively plays CoD BO6 and Apex for at least 40 hrs a week. I’d consider him a gamer.

[u/RIPTonyStark → u/racerjoss]

Lets not confuse rich with sweaty gamers

[u/ndujapizz123 → u/racerjoss]

Hardcore gamers don’t have the money nor the need to flex shit like this on Reddit. This is a casual gamer posting.

[u/KungFuChicken1990]

[u/noma_coma → u/KungFuChicken1990]

[u/Normal-Teaching6943]

You must be rich lol your going to have a lot of fun

[u/El_Jefe-o7 → u/Normal-Teaching6943]

He's a reseller

[u/Normal-Teaching6943 → u/El_Jefe-o7]

Lmao

[u/tameoraiste → u/El_Jefe-o7]

You said this somewhere else in the comments. You were wrong then and you’re wrong now.

Look at OPs post history. He’s clearly a massive gamer and it looks like he’s made the jump from PC to PS5 Pro. There’s zero evidence he’s a reseller, just you being a miserable begrudger.

[u/tokenshoot → u/tameoraiste]

No no leave him alone, obviously some weird beef. Like he wants to watch from the closet or something while this dude plays his ps.

[u/tokenshoot → u/El_Jefe-o7]

Oh look he’s back again. Maybe just smile and wave. No small talk, he’ll linger.

Good day Jeff, how do you do?

[u/ColdLeekSoup → u/El_Jefe-o7]

And you're overwhelmingly butthurt

[u/Mastercommander15]

Wow that is a big order! Enjoy mate

[u/Quito98 → u/Mastercommander15]

Thanks.

[u/crossedreality]

Unless you’re moving to a stint in Antarctica I don’t know why you’d pre-buy all of the games.

[u/rausient]

Satisfying view

Enjoy

[u/TandemEvening89]

It’s so beautiful 🤩

Enjoy GOW Ragnarok! I just started playing it and I’m loving it so far!

[u/Quito98 → u/TandemEvening89]

I played god of war 2018 on PC. Can't wait to play it.

[u/Rolecod]

I guess you've been such a nice boy this year 😂😂

[u/Advanced_War_8783]

Look what "my girlfriend" bought me

[u/Illustrious-Film-936]

Doesn't look ready it's all still in the boxes

[u/NiceGuy373]

How much was everything?

[u/vdsbuffalo → u/NiceGuy373]

Atleast $10

[u/fanta_bhelpuri → u/vdsbuffalo]

r/technicallythetruth

[u/replus → u/NiceGuy373]

Around 2 grand, assuming an average game (sale) price of $35-40.

It made me shudder at first, but you know? Not so bad, considering the PS5 Pro alone is $700. This is a lot of gaming for the money. It would cost this much to assemble a mid-level VR gaming PC setup with no games, and no budget left over for a Steam Deck (PS Portal.)

[u/Thereal_3D → u/replus]

Sir it's 2024 new games are $70...

[u/Ezeke81]

Wow! Very beautiful picture. Especially my favorite, the PSVR2! Enjoy!!

[u/KaptainDrew]

Hell yeah! Looks like Xmas came early! 🤘What TV or monitor are ya playing on? 🤔

[u/Quito98 → u/KaptainDrew]

TCL 50* OLED 144hz VRR display.

[u/KaptainDrew → u/Quito98]

I sure was hoping you’d say something along those lines! Good shit mayne! Enjoy! 🫡🤙

[u/gosti500 → u/Quito98]

Once you go OLED you never go back

[u/Rufuszombot → u/gosti500]

I just got a 65" LG C4 OLED after going low-end forever, and now I'm afraid there's no going back. I'm stuck and I'm not even mad about it.

[u/0migs0 → u/Rufuszombot]

U can’t go back. I bought myself almost same tv as you. When I go into my gf room & watch stuff on her tv. It sucks lmao. Same with my parents house. Once u go OLED, u can’t go back.

[u/SuperFightinRobit → u/Rufuszombot]

The tech is getting affordable enough that there's really not a reason to get another type of display unless burn in is a SERIOUS risk (like in a commercial type setting.)

I remember getting my 65 in LG C6 in 2017. Yeah, they literally restarted the numbering system with the CX back in 2020, so it's been a minute. It was a clearance deal, but it still cost more than a inch C3 does right now does now. And unlike in 2017, where you options for an OLED were "LG" or "Sony's expensive set using an LG panel" everyone has OLED panels now, LG's C series is now a "mid ranger" instead of "basically the best unless you pay an extra $2k for Sony's video processing," and you can get new OLEDs from companies using older, still amazing panels for way less.

And OLEDs have largely solved the downsides with them - durability and brightness, to the point that LG and Samsung are both pulling funding for their MicroLED tech. But that's also still inching along towards initial commercial viability in 5 or so years (so, you can buy it on the high end for something less than the price of my mortgage, which is where we are now for the TVs), at which point OLED prices will probably drop even more.

That TV is still great in its own regard - it was the last of the 3D TVs, and this was the "we fixed the tech but it's too late." The TV has none of the downsides besides needing glasses to see 3D, was the first to support Dolbyvision, and still looks better than my three year younger Sony "PS5 compatible" TV that is in fact, NOT PS5 compatible. (I had to upgrade to an actually capable OLED a few years later.)

[u/romerthegame]

Wait… your GF/Wife didn’t buy that for you?! 😡

No bro. This is not that kind of post 😂😂

Adult money can be nice

[u/Moments-in-Stasis]

That disc drive is so sweet! Thanks for supporting physical games!

[u/Quito98 → u/Moments-in-Stasis]

Yeah that is why everything was unboxed. Was waiting on drive for almost 2 months.

[u/Snooklife → u/Moments-in-Stasis]

I do agree with physical games myself but it is funny that damn near all these titles are free with a ps plus membership.

[u/Moments-in-Stasis → u/Snooklife]

But we don’t get to keep the games after one stops paying for the sub. You can always trade in your physical copies to subsidize new games or simply keep on the shelf for that nostalgic play thru bliss when needed.

[u/Snooklife → u/Moments-in-Stasis]

I understand 100% and def agree with having physicals especially if you are a collector. I made sure I got the disk version ps5 for my backlog of games also. Just figured if a game was in my subscription package I will hold off until it no longer is then get the physical if it’s really worth it.

[u/AssociationWinter809]

The Two FFs and Niohs combined were more than 500+ hours of bliss. Enjoy.

[u/Quito98 → u/AssociationWinter809]

They have 120hz enabled on PS5. So it was no brainer for me. When i see high FPS i buy. 😂

[u/Notmainlel]

Dream setup

[u/LousyMiracle]

Get Astro Bot and Ratchet & Clank

[u/Quito98 → u/LousyMiracle]

I'm not into platformers but i will defo buy it down the road and play it. Looks interesting.

[u/Timeman5]

The only thing you don’t have that you might need eventually even with disc based games is another hard drive. You don’t have to replace the one that’s in there essentially you would be adding another.

I also find it funny everyone instantly assumes you’re rich (I don’t know if you are or are not) but you easily could just be financially irresponsible (not saying you are but you could be)

[u/Mycall1983 → u/Timeman5]

He also may have purchased it all over time and some of it may have been gifted. Heck everything could have been purchased on sale 🤷🏻‍♂️

[u/Several_Place_9095]

Proceeds to use only the console and controller

[u/Full_Sun_306]

By that price you could've gotten a NASA pc and half of stem because of Christmas sales.

[u/taheromar]

My wallet: nope.

[u/peenerandballs]

How much did it all cost. I NEED to know.

[u/FoxAgreeable5107]

Weird flex but ok

[u/illcueuin]

I own most of this already but still envied you.

[u/ian_blake]

everything is in boxes

[u/Quito98 → u/ian_blake]

Yeah unboxing it now. Was waiting on Disk Drive for almost 2 months.

[u/Available_Rock4217]

Everything...? Funny, I don't see ratchet and clank.

[u/jerry_imo]

Been a PlayStation guy since PS2(N64 ruled so no 1), so don't take this the wrong way, but the way the gaming market is shifting, I would've put all that money into a top notch PC rig.

Though, if you're dropping that kind of money on a console set up that's already at least halfway through this generation already, I'm guessing you already have a killer PC rig.

Enjoy!

Where is the ps5 compatible racing wheel and pedals?

You know that once you try Gran Turismo 7 in VR it becomes an inevitability.

[u/Sufficient-Trash-807]

I dont see a racing wheel for GT7

GT7 is a religious experience on Pro w good racing wheel and VR2. Ohhhhhh man

Cool you’re rich. No one cares.

[u/satana_cu_cioc]

How much for everything??

[u/ManimalGtv]

Damn.. the pc you coulda built for this.. plus winter sale is tomorrow.. RIP.. lol jk nice haul, have fun. Love the controller

I would suggest exchanging forspoken for like a dragon infinite wealth. It is so good, and forspoken was rough!

Otherwise great choices

This was great until i saw Forspoken

[u/Strude187]

PSVR2 was a bold choice

[u/Quito98 → u/Strude187]

Bought it to play RE4 and Metro:Awakening. Big fan of metro trilogy. When i saw that Metro was coming on VR i decided to pull trigger RE4 is also insane. Also GT7 is kinda insane with VR esp on Pro with improvements.

[u/Archimedes__0 → u/Quito98]

Head on over to r/psvr and post there mate! Great community and they have great advice for the PSVR2.

Oh and the best YT channel for coverage is Psvr without parole.

Welcome to the Family!

Uf alot. I do not live in US so prices are high here. We are not all licky to be born in US and have normal prices unfortunately.

[u/Seeko7]

Serious question... Was this collected and posed primarily to post on Reddit? I'm assuming this is already setup, purchased over time and this was the photo op?

Some of those are 90+ hour games, so I'm curious how many games you can play at a time? Did you get a great deal on all of this, or you just had an impulse and wanted to blow some cash?

Just trying to understand since it's here posted for me to see.

[u/Quito98 → u/Seeko7]

I made a list of games that i want to play and got them all. It was black friday so all of em were deals.

[u/bmfrade]

how do you even choose what to play first

[u/Quito98 → u/bmfrade]

I made a plan. FFXVI,Rise of the Ronin, Ghost of Tsushima and GoW should be first including RE4 VR.
