The Ps5 plays Ps4 games better with fast ssd load times and no frame rate drops. 155 ps4 games got the 4k/60 fps patch so far for the Ps5. The Ps5 plays all the newest AAA games. For $500 the Ps5 is worth it .
It’s just a change in perspective. Using the x86 platform means we’re just copying what is happening on PC. You can get the games running but you can have a much better experience. It all depends on what you are looking for. They did sell over 60m systems in less than 4 years, it’s amazing.
We’re at a point where graphically we won’t see as big of leap, gameplay wise, we can still push boundaries but overall I think most of us grew up during the golden era of gaming (ps1 to ps3 personally) so I feel no matter regardless of what latest console releases, we will always fall back on nostalgia on what games in the past really made a huge impact on our lives. Those early 2000’s games really etched a special place in a lot of our hearts.
As far as graphics go, PS4 level visuals are good enough, but not with the performance you are getting. This gens games are noticeably more impressive and have higher performance, and those that are only 30fps, minus a few unoptimised titles look better still.
I agree with that statement. Someone it also takes them so long to develop a game anymore and so much money that I don't think they can profit off of it. You can't take risks. If you cost your company money, you know what I'm saying
The PS5 has three main problems: 1. Supply issues during the first two years of its life resulted in most people sticking with PS4 rather than shell out extortionist scalper prices for the PS5. Because of this, Sony decided to make the vast majority of Playstation games that have released since the PS5 came out also available on PS4. Naturally most people just decided to stick with the PS4 since it was way cheaper and easier to get, and they could still play most new releases anyway. 2. Game devs' insistence on targeting the Switch has seriously gimped the 9th generation of gaming. Few games have been able to truly take advantage of the full power of the PS5 (and also XSX) due to games being held back to be made playable on the Switch as well. The handful that do get to take full advantage of the PS5 are typically outstanding next-gen titles, but those games are few in number unfortunately. This is also why the announcement that Sony was developing a PS5 "Pro" was mostly met with disinterest.. there's no reason at all to buy into an upgraded (and undoubtedly more expensive) PS5 when hardly any games take advantage of the base console as-is. 3. The price. We're nearing 4 years into the consoles' lifecycle and the supply issues from the covid years have been resolved. The PS5 is readily available everywhere, and yet the console STILL costs around $450-$500. You can easily get a PS4/PS4 Pro for half that price. And since the PS5 is lacking in exclusives as this point in its life coupled with Sony's decision to put most of their new games also on PS4, it makes the PS5 a very difficult sell. Overall I like the PS5. Performance-wise it blows the PS4 out of the water, and since it can play the vast majority of PS4 games I think the PS5 is the better buy for people who don't own either console. You get access to all the great games on the PS4, AND the PS5 library, AND it's future-proofed for performance as new games come out over the next several years. I think Sony is finally ready to move on from the PS4 era, and is expecting GTA6 to be the "passing of the torch" in that regard. Hopefully with Nintendo also announcing the existence of the "Switch 2", we'll start seeing devs making more games that can take better advantage of the current-gen hardware.
I like your write up. For price, remember that Sony dared to INCREASE the price for its 4 year old hardware in the UK, Australia, Mexico and Canada. Not only did Sony waste 2 years of the console's life cycle by refusing to mitigate scalpers, but now it expects us to pay MORE money for fewer years of usability.
I was thinking of buying a PC but then I saw a listing online for a used PS4 Pro that costs $180 (There's no way I'm gonna find a used PC for that price). Tho it didn't come with a controller or any games, just the console and cables. But that's not a problem cuz I bought a DS4 a couple of months back to use for gaming on emulators on my laptop. So then I just bought a second hand copy of vanilla P5 for $10 cuz royal is triple the price for some reason and now I'm having a lot of fun gaming. I still use a 1080p monitor so the resolution isn't a problem and the Pro can run games like MGS V at 60 fps and I can use super sampling to make the picture even crisper. I'm just waiting for a jailbreak to be available for my firmware to then unlock the full potential of this PS4.
I think another thing worth noting is that a lot of people still have 2k tvs, and can't even take full advantage of the ps5 without spending an additional few hundreds bucks on a new tv, too.
right now im collecting more ps3 games and ps4 games. ps3 games are slowly going up in value just like the 360 games so nows the time to get the ps3 games you want.

Truly next-gen games like Spider-Man 2 and Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart are truly amazing. Other games that have been upgraded for PS5 are good but this generation is severely lacking games built just for the 9th gen consoles.
PS4 games run just fine on PS4 yes PS4 games on PS5 yes there's lower load times, graphical upgrade, and better FPS but if you don't care for that they run just fine on PS4. Hell id Rather have the PS4 be like the PS5 and be backwards compatible with ps3

@@Classified2499 don't you get annoyed with the commercials? I noticed that on desktop version they tend to be easier to skip than on the ps5 youtube app
@@Classified2499 Yes, precisely. Somehow you can access the normal "desktop" version and it works quite smooth, but like you said, it is devoid of some funcionalities that are normally present on a computer/laptop. Those incluse the full screen mode (yes, it is a drag), and, for example, playing the video on repeat. I like the app version, it's just that the ads are crazy. Strange times when you can have any musical album one click away, but at the same time you can't listen to it in peace. Because the commercial starts literally after every song.
If you're new to PS4 I highly recommend God of war the remake and horizon zero dawn (the puzzles in the game can be garbage but if you get pass them it's 👌)
May I ask why get a ps4 to play Days Gone when ps5 plays Days Gone at 60fps and is future proof for other upcoming games? Was it the price or something?
@@fall-neckthetallneck2977 the game runs fine on PS4. It's not in an unplayable state. That doesn't justify the price of upgrading when current situation as it stands with many of us
I started playing Days Gone and was very nervous to face the hordes of freekers but the game progressed so beautifully and gradually that by the time I faced the first horde I was not afraid at all and moreover, how the game provides multiple ways to take down the hordes is just amazing. Level Design, Story, Gameplay, Graphics and everything in between is just awesome.
I still have my PS4 pro but these consoles should not came out in 2020 in the pandemic plus gaming industry needs a reset. I still do not finish the games I brought like Nioh 1 and 2 Hitman 3 The Witcher 3 etc. I am glad that gamers like you being honest plus this conversation is heating up for the last few day. Good video💯😉✌🏽
You know it’s weird. The PS5 has sold almost the same as the PS4 in the same timeframe and had the shortage issues the PS4 didn’t. Not sure why everyone thinks it’s doing much worse than the PS4 did when it’s almost 1:1. In terms of PSN - PS3 didn’t have PS Plus and PS4 upgraded lots of the network features so there was more reasons to upgrade from PS3 to PS4.
@@tacos4419 when it launched in 2010 it was not needed for online play. It was more of an additional tier system with free games, discounts etc. cloud saves were added later. I don’t think it became mandatory for online play until the ps4 launched - ps4 needed ps plus where as ps3 did not. The service was fundamentally different on ps3.
Doesn’t matter how people think, PS5 is a failure, because it can’t make enough money, sony admitted that. Ya PS5 sold as much as PS4 in the same timeframe, but now more people play games than before, so the number is very bad, not to mention making triple A PS5 games is very expensive. Nintendo switch makes a lot of money that’s for sure, that’s why they kept delaying Nintendo Switch 2, because switch still making lots of profit.
@@Indiana-r9bthis gotta be the dumbest comment lol the ps5 has already made more money this gen the entirety of the ps4 generation what are you talking about ? 🤣🤦🏾♂️
I have both. I’ve played the same games on each. Yes load times and stuff are hands down PS5, but you need someone to point out the graphical differences. So their are more trees and others minor things. It’s just not a large enough difference for the money. In my opinion
EXACTLY THATS WHAT IM SAYING!!! Ps5 is just not worth it and it looks boring and bad designed system outside and inside …..ps4 will always top the ps5 with the looks and designed and more games too it…..ps4 is still entertaining me after 7 years I got my self a Nintendo switch because I thought it was cool and very and I started to realize that Nintendo switch feels very worthless to me…..the most and the only 1 console That will always makes me happy and having fun.
@@Hak-gion6There's nothing a PS4 does better than a 5. Even if you never play PS5 games (which why wouldn't you, games like Demon's Souls are masterpieces), a PS5 runs games leagues above a PS4 pro even. The frame rate, the graphics, the speed, the fluidity of the UI and loading. It's not even close. As someone who has both, I have never used my PS4 since December 2020 when I got my PS5.
P45 is literally PS4 Pro max lol… Don’t get me wrong, playing PS4 games without jet engine fan noise is so good but I was expecting more. And another thing. Where are home screen themes? Where are folders to manage your games at home screen? What happened? Are we going backwards or what?
As an above 25 year old, yeah I'm just a single player guy now 😊. But I'm getting through all the single player games I missed during my childhood while I was wasting time with live service titles 😅.
I would guess that everyone is still on the ps4 because: 1. Ps4 games still look great 2. Most people play ps4 games on their ps5s anyway 3. Massive supply shortage that lasted so long people probably just figured they wait for the ps5 pro.
Same conversation about the ps4 and x one at this same time last generation. More people are still playing ps3 and 360! This gen has no games! Same exact headlines and social media will be saying this about next gen and praising this one.
Could be if you already have PS4, especially Pro. As for me, I'll be getting PS5 soon as I just bought a 4K TV today and sold my PS4 like 10 years ago in favour of getting a gaming PC.
100% facts. I’m considering selling my PS5 and honestly go with a Nintendo Switch instead. I never got to experience the huge catalog and handheld/portable experience so I’m looking forward to that
PS5 looks like a pretty nice machine but my PS4 Pro will definitely keep me entertained for many years into the future. Yesterday I took a quick glance at my backlog and counted 42 completely untouched physical releases (some PS3/X360 but the majority for PS4) plus another 25 or so that I quit playing after a few hours but plan to give a second chance later on. And then there's the shelf with PS2 and OG Xbox titles I still haven't played... An open world game usually takes me several months to finish (or grow tired of - whichever comes first), so even if I ONLY focus on the ten or so unplayed sandbox games it'll take me years to get through them. I can't really see myself getting a PS5 anytime soon. Possibly a PS6 Pro... or a PS7. 😄
Friend, I finally boxed my xbox 360 a couple months ago (200 games). Got a ps4 pro for a couple years, but now thats my main gaming hardware. It feel next gen to me 😂😂
I feel you on the single player part when you get older like me (30) you just can't keep your game up to play online, especially FPS games. And now more and more games go into online only even though when people vote, online is not the first priority. Only after actual gameplay, story etc. We've already seen a few deaths of online only games that has had their servers taken down, rendering them worthless, a game you bought for probably 60-70 euros depending where you live. You earned a sub!
I wish the PS5 had the PS4's ui and overall physical looks. But Sorry 60FPS is just a necessity where applicable. Infinitely makes games more enjoyable.
60 fps wasn't a necessity when the world chose a 20 - 30 fps, 224P PS2 over the 60 fps 480P GameCube, Dreamcast and Xbox. It doesn't matter that much now either. 60 and above is nice, but only necessary in FPS games, in other genres, it's a welcome addition but by no means a necessity.
@@BestGirlsBiggestFan Nowadays I think it is there's no excuse. But I did say necessity where applicable. I remember 25FPS Crash Bandicoot and Gran Turismo but they feel fine since the entire architecture of those games were built on was just different
If I am being honest I really like my ps5 and it released during a period when people didn’t have the ability to buy one right away. It been a great console for me and I can’t wait to see what next
The Ps4 is a great console indeed. I noticed Simpsons Hit & Run in the background. Fantastic game and for many years now i have wondered to myself, when are they gonna port that game over or remaster it. Hopefully soon.
I bought a ps5 in Christmas season 2023 and have no regrets. I have a ps4 as well as a ps3 so i have many games to play. I don't have any subscription gaming service as i only play single player games. I take advantage of Playstation online store sales, but I prefer to buy my games physically. I have an extensive backlog of games from the ps3, ps4 and the ps5. I also love retro style games on psn and the ability to buy a lot of ps1 ps2 classics on psn. I look forward to playing more ps5 games in the future. Happy gaming folks and God bless.
I bought a PS2 slim at the end of its life cycle, I bought a PS3 superslim one year before the PS4 came out, and I finally bought a PS4 slim two months ago. Now I can buy so many great games for little money that it will probably keep me busy well beyond the end of the PS5's life cycle.
yea I think I'm only going to get a ps5 or xbox for gta 6 and hopefully red dead 3. I have a steam deck and with that and emulation I've been more than fine. Great videos Canada man
Back in my day I already knew what I liked and didn’t like, so I didn’t need demos too determine if I liked a game or not. Although demos like for FF7 Remake and RE4 Remake are useful for showcasing to friends and family
Thanks for the video Absolutely agree about Watch Dogs. I was interested upon release and then everyone started to talk shit about the game. So I bought it only in 2024 and I enjoyed it SO MUCH!!!
Sony was always greedy. It just got worse. Remember having legit linux on ps3 and sony removing it? Yeah, that sure didnt backfire on them. Or removing native ps2 emulation in later revisions (slim, super slim). I could go on..
I bought a used PS4 Pro in 2020 for like $290 (because the PS5 was basically a myth back then) and I still dont feel like upgrading. There are like 3 games that intrest me on the PS5 and I'm not willing to spend $500 for 3 games.
You are all tooting. I was lucky enough to get one on launch day, and I haven't taken that for granted once. PS4 games play better, and the current gen games + console exclusives have been decent enough. Now, if you don't have much disposable income, considering that it is still quite pricey, then I get it. I'm glad that you can still enjoy select titles that are still being released cross-platform. But don't kid yourselves if you can afford it, or can save up enough. The current gen games are noticeably better, and last gen games play better. Why miss out?
They will cope until gta 6 comes out if they even get their hands on one cause they waited until around launch to buy it 😂 at least that’s what I’m reading from these cheapskates
I recently bought my first Xbox one from about 10 years old. I think exactly the same way about that, than what you said about the ps5. I am 34 now and i dont even see the graphic improvements anymore😆😆
No PS2 was the last truly incredible console. Sony revealed it's greed with the PS3's insane launch price. PS2 was a pure, fun and fair console from start to finish
Honestly I have both, a PS3 and a PS4...The jump from a ps3 to a 4 is drastic tbh, I remember playing uncharted 4 the first time was in awe as it legit looks like a movie al together, and the jump from ps4 to ps5 is pretty big but not worth it
@Ydzw I had recently replaced the thermal paste, switched from the 19-blade fan to a 15-blade fan(which moves a lot more air with less power) and also replaced my power supply with an APS-226 model to work more efficient and produce less heat. My ps3 is running daily like a champ 👍
@@cssplayer91 I recently "Frankensteined" mine, a PS2 compatible model with a better RSX, it's super rad. But calling PS4 garbage is wrong. It does almost everything the PS5 can do; so despite how "meh" the PS5 is, the PS4 was great. It lacks the personality the PS3 has, same for the Xbox One compared to the 360, but you're selling it short calling it garbage.
I feel like alot of the disinterest in gaming, is that its competing with social media, and you can scratch your gaming itch on RUclips and Twitch...which I find myself doing more often than I'm comfortable with. It kills any type of wonder and curiosity when you can watch your favorite streamer beat the game....or just binge a bunch of review videos to quench your wonder and curiosity. Technology is giving us more efficient ways to quell our gaming desires. Atleast for me.
As for multiplayer ahooters. Try titanfall 2 on any platform or battlefield bad company 2 on custom pc servers. You won't be disappointed. People praise these games for a reason. Graphics are ok, but gameplay is GOAT
Assassin's Creed IV, GTA V, Uncharted, Last of Us, MGS 5 plus several others were ported from the PS3. The PS4 really took off 4 years after its launch. People seem to forget that. The PS5 isn't doing well but neither did the PS4 in the beginning. Only difference is Nintendo stumbled out the gate on 8th gen also
I'm 27 years old and still, I have the PS4 on a 42 inch 4k TV, the PS5 on a 165hz monitor and a PC on a 360hz monitor- using a Dualsense 5 edge controller. And I know that if I played on the PS4-and on top of that without paddles in the back- I would be TRASH at competitive games like XDefiant and even Fortnite. But on the PS5 playing on 120fps I am literally twice as good and fast which makes you improve easier, have more input control and just see and react better. And then on the PC on controller(not keyboard player) on 240fps on any game that reaches that, I literally still get better and better at every game without even playing every day. If I did I could literally become a pro player just by being able to dedicate that much time. However, I have a life, a job with which I saved enough money to buy all the setup and a girlfriend/wife living with me. That means I only get to play 1-3 times a week if lucky! Lol life can be kind of a joke sometimes. You have everything you can wish for yet little time to enjoy it. You're used to sacrifice many things and now everything comes with a price to sacrifice. I cannot work less cause I am a man with responsibilities, and a girlfriend in Love who consumes most of my time and still demands more and more 😅 I videogames at their best I cannot enjoy enough because I have a life to maintain. Sometimes I wished I was free to do whatever I wish.

That is ridiculous. My PS5 does everything way better than the PS4. I have a HDMI 4.1 display so I play some games at 120Hz, the load times, the performance increase, the lack of jet engine noise, the controller. Everything is better about the PS5. I legitimately do not understand people who say PS4 is better than 5. There's nothing the PS5 does worse. My PS4 hasn't been used since I got my PS5.
2 reasons, 1 they are still releasing all the games on ps4, and 2 (which is where I fall) we got burned by getting a ps4 only for them to release a pro version. Now we all collectively said screw you Sony, we aren't buying a 5 until the pro comes out.

PS4 Pro was the best looking PlayStation console. 4 years later I’m still not sold on the ps5 design. It’s too big, takes up too much space and I had the shape of it
I think whats great if you’re getting PS4 games, you don’t have to worry about upgrading currently. You are not missing out on anything. Then your building a PS4 collection, and when you want to upgrade to a PS5 its backwards compatible. I feel when the PS5 can play PS3 games, it’ll be a huge reason for myself to upgrade. I would find it quite annoying to have 3 consoles. One for PS5 games only, which there still arent any besides SH2 thats not even out yet. Then still have to use a PS3 for ps3 games. Making you use 2 consoles still. I love the PS4! I just wish instead of cross platforming for the PS4, they did PS4 Pro & 5 titles. Putting an SSD in a PS4 Pro is a beast already.
I’d argue that PS4 really didn’t hit its stride until about 4-5 years into its life. It’s possible, that PS5 could be on that same trajectory. Also, PS5 sales will spike with GTA VI.
There was no ps5 in stores from the beginning. I couldnt buy one. Then, there was to much updated ps4 games on ps5. Today, I still want a ps5 but im okey with ps4..
4:18 why would you spend money on a game without knowing whether or not it’s good or bad ? You should ALWAYS watch gameplay of games on RUclips BEFORE you purchase any games. Watching gameplay on RUclips will show you whether or not a game is worth playing or not.
I sold my PS5 a few months back as I found myself barely playing it, when I did play it I was mainly playing my PS4 games on it. So recently I’ve been thinking about getting back into gaming and I’m planning on getting a PS4 Pro as 1 I’ve never owned a PS4 Pro and 2 it runs games at 4k.
Dude, ps1 is better than ps5. Games from a time where it wasn't about shareholders and money. Creativity was at its finest that gen, just look at how varied the 1400 ish titles were compared to now.
PS1 has its gems sure the graphics can be horrible but the thing most atrocious is loading.... Play the original resident evil every door you open. Then go to PS2 and the load times seem light years faster in comparison
Alternate take, PS5 consoles were difficult to obtain for a while, on top of the fact that the vast majority of games were released on both consoles and a lack of PS5 games has led to people sticking to the PS4. For me, never had a PS4. Recently picked up a PS5 and I can just get the games from PS4 and play them on the PS5. My current breakdown is about 50/50 and I go for the PS5 version first if both are available.
Storage is a problem, 8tb 2.5" ssd is half the price of the 8tb m.2, I do have 2tb extra in the ps5 thats already filled with mainly psvr2 games. if it wasnt for the headset i wouldnt have bought the later console.
Driving games and story based games are my thing. PS4 plays it well, in fact there are still games coming out for it. But at $500 for ps5- not budget friendly at all, and the ps4 games are a steal at garage sales and game stop.
I own a PS5, and gave my old PS4 to my sister, and she said she's getting a lot out of it. I got this thing last year, but only now do I feel like I'm even beginning to get value out of it. To be honest, I dunno if it will be much better; I've never been a GTA guy, but a LOT of people love that series and expect GTA VI to be the big one, but I also see some saying it's possible for the game to be the series' first true failure in terms of mainline entries. Only time will tell for sure, but while I plan to keep my PS5, even I have to admit it's a tough sell if you still have your PS4.
For the first three years of PS5 I could not get one, then realized I did not need one.

@@Crashed131963 My point still stands
It’s just a change in perspective. Using the x86 platform means we’re just copying what is happening on PC.
You can get the games running but you can have a much better experience. It all depends on what you are looking for.
They did sell over 60m systems in less than 4 years, it’s amazing.
gamers get neither
@Crashed131963 imagine caring only about performance and graphics 🤓
We’re at a point where graphically we won’t see as big of leap, gameplay wise, we can still push boundaries but overall I think most of us grew up during the golden era of gaming (ps1 to ps3 personally) so I feel no matter regardless of what latest console releases, we will always fall back on nostalgia on what games in the past really made a huge impact on our lives. Those early 2000’s games really etched a special place in a lot of our hearts.
As far as graphics go, PS4 level visuals are good enough, but not with the performance you are getting. This gens games are noticeably more impressive and have higher performance, and those that are only 30fps, minus a few unoptimised titles look better still.
I agree with that statement. Someone it also takes them so long to develop a game anymore and so much money that I don't think they can profit off of it. You can't take risks. If you cost your company money, you know what I'm saying
The PS5 has three main problems:
1. Supply issues during the first two years of its life resulted in most people sticking with PS4 rather than shell out extortionist scalper prices for the PS5. Because of this, Sony decided to make the vast majority of Playstation games that have released since the PS5 came out also available on PS4. Naturally most people just decided to stick with the PS4 since it was way cheaper and easier to get, and they could still play most new releases anyway.
2. Game devs' insistence on targeting the Switch has seriously gimped the 9th generation of gaming. Few games have been able to truly take advantage of the full power of the PS5 (and also XSX) due to games being held back to be made playable on the Switch as well. The handful that do get to take full advantage of the PS5 are typically outstanding next-gen titles, but those games are few in number unfortunately. This is also why the announcement that Sony was developing a PS5 "Pro" was mostly met with disinterest.. there's no reason at all to buy into an upgraded (and undoubtedly more expensive) PS5 when hardly any games take advantage of the base console as-is.
3. The price. We're nearing 4 years into the consoles' lifecycle and the supply issues from the covid years have been resolved. The PS5 is readily available everywhere, and yet the console STILL costs around $450-$500. You can easily get a PS4/PS4 Pro for half that price. And since the PS5 is lacking in exclusives as this point in its life coupled with Sony's decision to put most of their new games also on PS4, it makes the PS5 a very difficult sell.
Overall I like the PS5. Performance-wise it blows the PS4 out of the water, and since it can play the vast majority of PS4 games I think the PS5 is the better buy for people who don't own either console. You get access to all the great games on the PS4, AND the PS5 library, AND it's future-proofed for performance as new games come out over the next several years. I think Sony is finally ready to move on from the PS4 era, and is expecting GTA6 to be the "passing of the torch" in that regard. Hopefully with Nintendo also announcing the existence of the "Switch 2", we'll start seeing devs making more games that can take better advantage of the current-gen hardware.
I like your write up. For price, remember that Sony dared to INCREASE the price for its 4 year old hardware in the UK, Australia, Mexico and Canada.
Not only did Sony waste 2 years of the console's life cycle by refusing to mitigate scalpers, but now it expects us to pay MORE money for fewer years of usability.
I was thinking of buying a PC but then I saw a listing online for a used PS4 Pro that costs $180 (There's no way I'm gonna find a used PC for that price). Tho it didn't come with a controller or any games, just the console and cables. But that's not a problem cuz I bought a DS4 a couple of months back to use for gaming on emulators on my laptop. So then I just bought a second hand copy of vanilla P5 for $10 cuz royal is triple the price for some reason and now I'm having a lot of fun gaming. I still use a 1080p monitor so the resolution isn't a problem and the Pro can run games like MGS V at 60 fps and I can use super sampling to make the picture even crisper. I'm just waiting for a jailbreak to be available for my firmware to then unlock the full potential of this PS4.
Nice article bro ❤
I think another thing worth noting is that a lot of people still have 2k tvs, and can't even take full advantage of the ps5 without spending an additional few hundreds bucks on a new tv, too.
@@Enzed_I just sold my ps4 pro with two controllers for $100.00. lol

PS4 Pro with a SSD feels like a modern enough console for me, just no reason to upgrade to the PS5 with the cost
Truly next-gen games like Spider-Man 2 and Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart are truly amazing. Other games that have been upgraded for PS5 are good but this generation is severely lacking games built just for the 9th gen consoles.

You know it’s weird. The PS5 has sold almost the same as the PS4 in the same timeframe and had the shortage issues the PS4 didn’t. Not sure why everyone thinks it’s doing much worse than the PS4 did when it’s almost 1:1.
In terms of PSN - PS3 didn’t have PS Plus and PS4 upgraded lots of the network features so there was more reasons to upgrade from PS3 to PS4.
Wrong. Ps3 had ps plus. It came out in 2010.
@@tacos4419 when it launched in 2010 it was not needed for online play. It was more of an additional tier system with free games, discounts etc. cloud saves were added later. I don’t think it became mandatory for online play until the ps4 launched - ps4 needed ps plus where as ps3 did not. The service was fundamentally different on ps3.
Doesn’t matter how people think, PS5 is a failure, because it can’t make enough money, sony admitted that. Ya PS5 sold as much as PS4 in the same timeframe, but now more people play games than before, so the number is very bad, not to mention making triple A PS5 games is very expensive.
Nintendo switch makes a lot of money that’s for sure, that’s why they kept delaying Nintendo Switch 2, because switch still making lots of profit.

I would guess that everyone is still on the ps4 because:
1. Ps4 games still look great
2. Most people play ps4 games on their ps5s anyway
3. Massive supply shortage that lasted so long people probably just figured they wait for the ps5 pro.
Same conversation about the ps4 and x one at this same time last generation. More people are still playing ps3 and 360! This gen has no games! Same exact headlines and social media will be saying this about next gen and praising this one.

PS5 looks like a pretty nice machine but my PS4 Pro will definitely keep me entertained for many years into the future. Yesterday I took a quick glance at my backlog and counted 42 completely untouched physical releases (some PS3/X360 but the majority for PS4) plus another 25 or so that I quit playing after a few hours but plan to give a second chance later on. And then there's the shelf with PS2 and OG Xbox titles I still haven't played... An open world game usually takes me several months to finish (or grow tired of - whichever comes first), so even if I ONLY focus on the ten or so unplayed sandbox games it'll take me years to get through them. I can't really see myself getting a PS5 anytime soon. Possibly a PS6 Pro... or a PS7. 😄
Friend, I finally boxed my xbox 360 a couple months ago (200 games). Got a ps4 pro for a couple years, but now thats my main gaming hardware. It feel next gen to me 😂😂
That is if Sony doesn't stop screwing themselves, and their gaming community.
I feel you on the single player part when you get older like me (30) you just can't keep your game up to play online, especially FPS games. And now more and more games go into online only even though when people vote, online is not the first priority. Only after actual gameplay, story etc. We've already seen a few deaths of online only games that has had their servers taken down, rendering them worthless, a game you bought for probably 60-70 euros depending where you live.
You earned a sub!
I wish the PS5 had the PS4's ui and overall physical looks. But Sorry 60FPS is just a necessity where applicable. Infinitely makes games more enjoyable.
60 fps wasn't a necessity when the world chose a 20 - 30 fps, 224P PS2 over the 60 fps 480P GameCube, Dreamcast and Xbox.
It doesn't matter that much now either.
60 and above is nice, but only necessary in FPS games, in other genres, it's a welcome addition but by no means a necessity.

You are all tooting. I was lucky enough to get one on launch day, and I haven't taken that for granted once. PS4 games play better, and the current gen games + console exclusives have been decent enough.
Now, if you don't have much disposable income, considering that it is still quite pricey, then I get it. I'm glad that you can still enjoy select titles that are still being released cross-platform. But don't kid yourselves if you can afford it, or can save up enough. The current gen games are noticeably better, and last gen games play better. Why miss out?

Funny thing about Killzone Shadowfall, on PS5 with the FPS unlocked (the game has this option), it runs at 1080p @60 fps rock solid
No way in hell would I tell someone to buy an outdated system when you can get the new system with better performance and better features especially when the new system plays old AND new games
Exactly 💯
I really don't care about outdated ps4 goated
@@user-wt4ql4kr1w Do you.. but nobody with a brain is gonna choose to buy an old outdated system when you can get the new system that plays old AND new games.
@Jay_Walker92 okay you get a ps6 they leaking it , it'll be exactly the same minor differences I'll get a ps5 only for spiderman n gta 6 but not now tho
@@user-wt4ql4kr1w I don't care..If there is something better I want the better, if you are fine with old stuff fine do you I want the best especially if the new can also play the old.
Nothing more satisfying than wiping out an entire hoard. Great storyline. Shout out Days Gone
As a pc gamer, I see no reason to get a ps5, not because we've been getting all the exclusives, I just don't care about them. Now as for the ps4, it's pretty much only a Bloodborne machine, which I hope we get some day soon (I'd play the ps4 gravity Rush games too, tho). And as for ps3, I just can play those on PC
If consoles are so bad, why do you keep commenting on them? Just ignore and keep to pc stuff.
@@SilverTesterhe is justly keeping to PC stuff as so called "consoles" became PCs since last gen.
I ended up going the other way lol, i went from PS4 to PC for a few years, now I came back to PS3, modded it to play isos and man its awesome.
I bought a PS5 3 months ago... and Demon's Souls, Stellar Blade, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and coming soon Shin Megami Tensei V Vengance is good enough for me
3 of those games are remakes/remasters. Also, SMT V is coming out on PS4.
@@Enzed_ Thats true... still my jaw dropped first time i played demon souls (i still played a little on ps3... since theres an active private server), imo best looking souls game. And ff7 rebirth is a pretty big leap from ff7.
@@Enzed_ believe it or not but there’s people who really like remakes
@@Enzed_ people want to see games like gta 4, gow, uncharted all time great games remade to look like todays games

If you're trying multiplayer games i must recommend one that is really good. A free to play PvP game on ps4 called Vigor. I don't play any multiplayer games whatsoever but i do play Vigor because it's just so much fun. I am even complete trash at it but i still enjoy playing. Thanks for the video. Btw ps5 may not be miles ahead of ps4 but it definitely brings enough to the table to be worth upgrading to.imo
I agree. Not even remotely interested in upgrading.
I feel Awesome to be alive in this generation at age 23 with my issues and i got to watch video like this which help me cure my depression by the way still rockingmy ps4fat just havesonyairline issue but i manage that with no problem 😎
Demos should be mandatory
I haven't upgraded to PS5 yet because for me there is no reason to. PS4 games look great and are cheaper as well. Good video man
Play days gone on ps5 60fps makes Alot of difference
Might as well play it on PC 120fps then.
Still game on my ps4, excited for elden ring dlc dropping soon
PS4 Pro was the best looking PlayStation console. 4 years later I’m still not sold on the ps5 design. It’s too big, takes up too much space and I had the shape of it
I think whats great if you’re getting PS4 games, you don’t have to worry about upgrading currently. You are not missing out on anything.
Then your building a PS4 collection, and when you want to upgrade to a PS5 its backwards compatible.
I feel when the PS5 can play PS3 games, it’ll be a huge reason for myself to upgrade.
I would find it quite annoying to have 3 consoles.
One for PS5 games only, which there still arent any besides SH2 thats not even out yet.
Then still have to use a PS3 for ps3 games.
Making you use 2 consoles still.
I love the PS4! I just wish instead of cross platforming for the PS4, they did PS4 Pro & 5 titles.
Putting an SSD in a PS4 Pro is a beast already.
I’d argue that PS4 really didn’t hit its stride until about 4-5 years into its life. It’s possible, that PS5 could be on that same trajectory. Also, PS5 sales will spike with GTA VI.
‘IF’ Gta 6 is good.

4:18 why would you spend money on a game without knowing whether or not it’s good or bad ?
You should ALWAYS watch gameplay of games on RUclips BEFORE you purchase any games. Watching gameplay on RUclips will show you whether or not a game is worth playing or not.
Not going back to the slow ass loading and noisy ps4
Upgrade the hard drive with an SSD change thermal paste. Problem solved 🎉

I sold my PS5 a few months back as I found myself barely playing it, when I did play it I was mainly playing my PS4 games on it. So recently I’ve been thinking about getting back into gaming and I’m planning on getting a PS4 Pro as 1 I’ve never owned a PS4 Pro and 2 it runs games at 4k.
Dude, ps1 is better than ps5. Games from a time where it wasn't about shareholders and money. Creativity was at its finest that gen, just look at how varied the 1400 ish titles were compared to now.
PS1 has its gems sure the graphics can be horrible but the thing most atrocious is loading.... Play the original resident evil every door you open. Then go to PS2 and the load times seem light years faster in comparison
Alternate take, PS5 consoles were difficult to obtain for a while, on top of the fact that the vast majority of games were released on both consoles and a lack of PS5 games has led to people sticking to the PS4.
For me, never had a PS4. Recently picked up a PS5 and I can just get the games from PS4 and play them on the PS5. My current breakdown is about 50/50 and I go for the PS5 version first if both are available.
I agree with you but what goes wrong with the ps5
everything
Nothing, just hipsters.
It has basically no exclusive games so pointless console really
@@Vivi_9 it has excellent exclusives like returnal, Spiderman 2 or Rachet and Clank
@@ivritcourses wow what an impressive list......
Storage is a problem, 8tb 2.5" ssd is half the price of the 8tb m.2, I do have 2tb extra in the ps5 thats already filled with mainly psvr2 games. if it wasnt for the headset i wouldnt have bought the later console.
It's simple, really. PS5 is still ridiculously expensive. Even if I wanted 1, I couldn't afford it.
Brokie.
I've finally bought used ps5 slim for 290 usd, dont be ashamed brother buy a used one
Driving games and story based games are my thing. PS4 plays it well, in fact there are still games coming out for it.
But at $500 for ps5- not budget friendly at all, and the ps4 games are a steal at garage sales and game stop.
PS5 is a glorified PS4 Pro with limited raytracing.
I own a PS5, and gave my old PS4 to my sister, and she said she's getting a lot out of it. I got this thing last year, but only now do I feel like I'm even beginning to get value out of it. To be honest, I dunno if it will be much better; I've never been a GTA guy, but a LOT of people love that series and expect GTA VI to be the big one, but I also see some saying it's possible for the game to be the series' first true failure in terms of mainline entries. Only time will tell for sure, but while I plan to keep my PS5, even I have to admit it's a tough sell if you still have your PS4.
