There's multiple devices that allow you to play your PS5 like a Switch, and they all do more.

I'm not angry, you can have opinions about things you're not angry about. I'm disappointed that Sony charged as much as possible for the bare minimum again, just a lack of ambition and abundance of cost.

Did you think I was going to?

I'd say the printer/scanner/fax combo is more convenient the second you either need to scan something or find yourself in the 1980s and need to send a fax.

It's kinda absurd to think Sony can't put more than one feature into this £200 device without over complicating it. There's no reason it couldn't stream from PS Now, all the hardware it needs is already there. It's just the bare minimum and much of the potential was squandered.

No I'm disappointed they didn't make a worthwhile device. I would've loved this if it had some worthwhile additions, but it's an overpriced screen with a controller attached, useless without your PS5 connected to it wirelessly.

Even just streaming from PS+/Now would've done it for me, but "here's a way to play games you already own that are installed on the console you already own, but it costs £200 and you could do the same thing with many of the devices you already own, some of which may have an ethernet connection, so they're better at it" just feels like a waste.

Hopefully it'll get hacked and they'll get gamepass streaming on it or something.

Yeah, and convenience used to be putting multiple different functions in one device. Now apparently it's more convenient to pay £200 for a device that can literally only do one thing instead of using the many other devices you already own to conveniently do the same thing.

Get some glue and make a holder or something. Bigger screen? Use a tablet, laptop, or PC that you've probably already got. £200 for a device that can't do anything on its own? Stop bending over for them.

Better than being near you.

You can plug your dual sense into both a phone and a steam deck without it costing you any more money.

It's an oddity because there's already multiple devices in most homes that can remote play, paying for a device that can ONLY remote play is about the stupidest waste of money I can think of when I have two phones, a PC, a laptop and a tablet that can all do the same thing. Hell if you plug in an ethernet cable the PC and laptop well do it better.

It could have been a cool device if you could use it to stream from PS+/Now, but you can't. It could be cool if it had like a vita in it or something so you could play vita games, but it didn't. It's an idea with potential, but they shoved all that potential in a bin and instead released something that's completely useless unless it's connected to your PS5. What a waste.

Because the people offering stagnation are benefiting from the fascism. They're two sides of one coin and every time you flip the coin the sharp edges slice the throat of a poor person.

Besides, it's not stagnation, that implies not moving. We are actually moving backwards and the reason why republicans are able to ban abortion, engage in blatant corruption, and run for president whilst on trial is because the "stagnation" side refuses to mount a proper offence because, again, they're all benefitting from the situation.

"Wait, what was I supposed to be doing?" - sperm, apparently.

You mean the part where he kills you? I loved that bit.

It is rare that a rat gets onto a ship whilst it's already sinking only to abandon it shortly later though.

Albeit?

Hmm, tell me more about this...ass banking....

Yes that's what I thought you said. I asked wtf you were talking about because what you were saying is so incorrect that it is like you intentionally chose the opposite of the truth, sorry if that wasn't clear.

I listen to an audiobook every day, watch TV and movies regularly.

Yep, it was great. I picked it back up after not finishing it so did the DLCs to stretch it out as I was near the end. Finished The Foundation yesterday, not as good as the main game or AWE. I've downloaded Alan Wake Remastered now, so that's next.

This is the weirdest comments section I've ever seen. Stories are why I play every single one of my favourite games. I just finished Control and it's absolutely phenomenal. Yes it plays and looks great, but the story and lore is why it's so good.
