64gb of ram is 1,000 dollars by itself, and both would need that.

Why on earth would a gaming console need 64gb of RAM?

Theyre just going to be buying mid range gaming pcs instead of consoles.

Most parents won't. They'll pay whatever Sony asks, because that's what their kids' friends have.

Because modern game devs can't/won't optimize their games for shite

What percentage of games released currently need 32gb of RAM? What percentage need 64gb?

What percentage of users close every app, every messenger, Discord, and browser tab prior to launching a game?

We’re talking about consoles, mate

PC gamers don’t need 64gb either, but console gamers especially don’t. Not only would I be willing to bet that the next gen of consoles don’t offer 64gb of RAM, but I would be willing to be that the gen after doesn’t, either.

The dude is almost 100% negative.
About AAA, yes.

But they are in a crash. Only shills are sunshine pumping on the Titanic.

However, he just did a video about how Capcom is killing it right now.

He generally WANTS to find positive in the AAA gaming industry. There just isn't much right now

If you sort his videos by most viewed his top 10 viewed vids is a literal split 5-5 of videos being heavily critical about something and praising something or positively reviewing a game.
Exactly

Like I said, he did this video and also did a video absolutely glazing Capcom

What does his top videos have to do with it? Sure Jan, if his top videos are 5-5 split then I guess his last 40 don't count?

Go look at the titles / headlines of his last 40 videos. They are either all negative or US vs Them. All of them. Trying to say the guy isn't almost always negative simply isn't true based on the titles / headlines.

You can love him all you want but the dude is 100% the equivalent of Nerdrotic. Rage sells. He is just playing the game and I don't blame him but I don't have to like it and I have recently started to skip his videos.

I do think we don’t really need a next gen console anytime soon. The graphics on the PS5 pro and the Xbox series X are incredible. How about just riding these about for another 5 years or so and focus on GOOD games?

Playstation rested on their laurels to the point they are almost as bad as XBox. I don't tend to buy a lot of console games but usually there will be several I wish were on PC. This generation, I have wanted to play a handful of PS5 games and I don't care about any of them moving to PC. I think Death Stranding 2 was the only one I waited for PC. The only thing I wish they would move to PC isn't a new release. I just wish they would remake the Uncharted 1-3. Other than that, the PS console is almost as dead to me as the XBOX and with insane prices thanks to AI spending, there is no way in hell I even think about buying a new console when this generation was so boring.

Gaming is in a rough place currently.

Legendary is usually 50-50.

Recently with all the Sony news and layoffs, he's probably 60-40.

Most all non-culture war game YT are pretty much the same.

I don't need some shill sunshine pumping a bad game.

You can keep posting this but it isn't remotely true. Once again, just look at his last 40 videos.

I've found plenty of good games to play in the last year. He doesn't need to sunshine pump bad games when there are actually good games he could be reviewing and talking about but that doesn't pay the bills. And seems like you are sunshine pumping Mr Negativity. His headlines for the last 6 months.

They're winning
This will destroy them
This won't end well
We are winning
They're gone
We're so cooked
It's over
They lost it all
They're losing it
They're going broke
They tried to stop it
They ruined it
Not ready for this
It's finally over
They want more
Nothing is left
they are lying
they're scared
it's not for you
This is bad
They killed it
They bet on us
they're done
Not this time
They don't have the balls
They wan it gone
Tell the truth
They won't stop
They hate this
They can't fix this
It's already over
They won't stop
It's too much
Nothing left
Holy shite
Not this time
What the frick is this
It happened again
They gave up
This will end badly
This will destroy them
It's your fault

Enjoy it. I don't. He is Debbie Downer.

Only if you are misreading the video titles

Let's take these because they are the ones I remember, and I added 2 that you left off

They're winning (glazing Capcom)
This will destroy them
*This won't end well
We are winning(Glazing Xbox games ownership thing)
They're gone
*We're so cooked
It's over
Not This Time(Defending Palworld)
They can't Hide (glazing Steam and Gabe)
They lost it all
*They're losing it
They're going broke
They tried to stop it(Glazing Palworld)
They ruined it
Not ready for this(Glazing Indies)
It's finally over (Glazing the industry's move away from Live Service)

I bolded the positive vids, underlined the negative, and asterisked the neutral ones

That is the last 16 that were on the 1st 4 rows of my screen, ordered by latest

7 positive
6 negative
3 neutral

yeah

Are you just reading video titles and assuming content? Because I agree his titles SOUND negative.

People who post on this board are major gamers and would pay the price point if they actually even made a justification for it which imo they still have yet to do and I don’t believe they have even made a dent in fully harnessing the PS5 let alone making a new console. You know who isn’t going to pay it? The normie when gets insane sticker shock. And they need the normies


Exactly. I come on this board occasionally to check out threads on Nintendo and things like that. 75% of what me and my kids play is fifa and the other 25% are Nintendo exclusives. The series x will be the last non Nintendo console I ever buy. There are millions like me who think the current gen is easily good enough to play anything and everything we’d be interested in. I don’t give a shite about some minor frame rate upgrades.

Nobody is really going to 8k, and 60Hz is still the standard for non-walmart 4k TVs

I don't really understand what the selling point could be at this point.

They dont try for 60 on most games in the current system. . .and it isn't a system limitation. I played through Miles Morales at 60 in 2021

Just want to add his latest video is glazing Wardogs

So to accommodate this:

Last 17 videos

8 positive
6 negative
3 neutral

Looks like I was wrong about 60=40 negative bent these days. I apologize for my error.

It is actually closer to 60-40 positive.
