The U.S. as well

I think skipping cutscenes solves the problem of not liking cutscenes, yes.

I do like Kojima’s cutscenes so I don’t skip them. They’re a part of the experience.

If you don’t like the long cinematics just skip them. Problem solved.

All of them contain the entire game. The only functional difference over the early days is that the game data isn’t read from disc while you play.

Skill issue

It sure is. I think your problem is you don’t know much a gaming PC costs, or much at all about hardware, so your only frame of reference is the Steam Machine, which is a small form factor pre-built machine with notoriously poor value for the money.

Care to show me this ps5 pro beating pc for $1000?

Here you go.

This dynamically changes with price, so for posterity this listing is $1,062

Literally the only thing the PS5 Pro beats out in this build is that it has DDR5 instead of DDR4 RAM, but even that in no way makes up for its shortcomings in other areas. The PS5 Pro’s GPU is close but doesn’t quite match the performance of the 9060 xt, and the PS5 Pro’s CPU is absolutely gimped next to the 5600x due its remarkably small cache and power limitations.

That a super low spec PC is twice the price of a PS5.

A PC that will outperform the PS5 Pro by a decent margin could be had for about $1000 today. An entry level gaming PC could be had for $700 or so.

The premium you pay for a PC over a PS5 is only 10-15% and that’s only because Sony sells them at a loss to recoup later in PSN subscriptions and online store purchases (This is why they’re killing physical media).

You’re saving 10-15% up front at the cost of being trapped on their platform forever and you’ll pay more over the life of it in PSN subscriptions unless you play single player only games.

That’s not true at all, but yes consoles will be a bit more expensive than comparable Consoles.

You think they’d destroy their own companies as a threat?
