Ever since its release, the PS5 has become one of the favorite consoles on the market. This new generation of consoles has created a competition game that resembles a sporting event, with waves of stock hitting the shelves every now and then, just to sell out a few minutes later.
The global pandemic seems to have contributed to the highway, as many of us are still in our homes. The lack of the system, coupled with PS5 scalpers ripping stuff, means many token gamers are looking for PS5 reloads, looking for any suggestions they get.
While I admit that I was initially tempted to buy the PS5, I don’t think I need one – at least not this year. Quite simply, other than being able to say that you are a proud owner of a PS5, there is little reason to get one right now.
There is clearly a lack of PS5 exclusives
The fact that almost all upcoming PS5 releases will be available for the PS4 is reason enough to wait. With minor exceptions such as Deathloop, most of the expected PS5 games were such Residential city, Batman: Knights of Gotham and The Legacy of Hogwarts also slated to come out on Sony’s pre-gen console.
Demon’s Souls is one of the few specials currently worth buying for the PS5. Anns ar review of the game, our game editor named it a “standout title among the PS5 launch schedule,” noting that the remake is the “best reason to have a PS5” thanks to to his fascinating story and elegant illustrations.
When one of the games I was expecting, Little Nightmares 2, coming out on February 10, I was surprised to see that the game was only available for PC, PS4, Xbox One, Stadia and the Nintendo Switch. The PS5 and Xbox Series X / S versions of the game won’t come out until later this year. Apparently not even a game studio is in a hurry to release games for the latest consoles, especially when there are so few players.
Compare the PS5 to the Nintendo Switch, for example. Despite releasing back in 2017, the portable console became a the highest selling console right now, hitting both the PS5 and the Xbox Series X / S. The Switch is significantly cheaper than next-generation consoles. But more importantly, if you want to play particularly popular Nintendo titles like Pokémon, Across animals no The Legend of Zelda, you have little choice.
My PS4 is still doing its job tremendously
Compared to the PS4, the PS5 features much better hardware. With technical specifications like an AMD Ryzen 8-core CPU, 16 GB RAM, 825GB SSD storage and ray detection capabilities, the PS5 has PS4 Pro blow. The PS5’s new DualSense controller also features a clear update over the DualShock 4, with interesting features such as haptic feedback and variable triggers.
When I started actively playing in 2017, I bought my trusted PS4 Pro for around £ 350 ($ 480). From that moment on, the console became a major staple in my situation, even after I Razer Blade 15 Quartz as my first gaming laptop. Even now, I still turn to the PS4 when I want to go down and play more “casual” single-player games on my bed.
The background of games for the PS4 plays a part in my decision as well. With popular games like God of War, Bloodborne, Ghost of Tsushima and Horizon Zero Dawn still topping the top of my “to do” list, it may take a while before I’m ready to box my PS4.
Baseline
Interestingly, he would be an early PS5 adopter. But, as it is, due to the lack of exclusive games and a constant shortage of global stocks, you may want to think twice before investing both your time and hard earned money into a new console. , just to have one. It looks like I’ll change my tune once games come out, and make it easier to buy the PS5. But now is not the time, at least for me.
