Lame cop-out to handwave inexpensive but still performant builds to avoid having them dismantle your point.

It's not a copout at all, yes there are people who will build systems with low end videocards just like there are people who are happy with 30fps on a console(if they actually had anything to play on the things). No one was building gaming PCs for $1000 with anything but low end hardware. Hell, $1000 puts you out of the budget for a mid tier card at this point before even considering storage and RAM. Even before pricing got stupid, 16GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD was still going to run you over $300, which at this point easily brings it up to $1500+ for again a mid tier PC build.
And that's still cheaping out on the cooler and case. Dropping that to an old rtx 3050 for $250 and you're still at almost $1300 with a 2 generation old low end card. You haven't dismantled shit.

Speaking of Apple, I think the devastating failure of the Vision Pro (their VR headset) is a perfect example of what I expect to happen with the PS6.
By all accounts the AVP is a fantastic high-end VR device, but even the lunatic Apple fanboys willing to pay full price for their phones and earbuds aren't willing to pony up the cash because VR is a novelty device with little to no practical benefits over the items everybody already owns that do the same thing.
I'm sure the PS6 will be the most powerful machine Mark Cerny's autism is capable of creating, but why do I need to spend $1,000 on a new box to watch Netflix on and play my PS4 ga-- oh wait I can't do that because it won't have a disc drive unlike my PS5.
How the niggercattle move on the PS6 will be really interesting to see, because they're slaves to 'newer is better' but also usually require at least one shiny bauble they can wave in people's faces to show why their new box is superior to all the others.
It's tough to say, because Apple also seemingly occasionally goes out of their way to make a product just to have it fail to kill market interest in it or purely to say they did with no real intent to ever do much with it. The apple pippin was a $600 game console released in 1996(I think? might have been 95) discontinued after a year and a half of nothing, worse than the fucking $800 philips CD-I from 1991. Then there was apple's bullshit priced newton PDA from the 90s priced at $2000+ and the handwriting shit didn't even work but for some reason they thought that was worth bringing to market as a product.
And yeah, it all boils down to the niggercattle and how many of them are willing to buy a ps6 or whatever the helix thing is from Microsoft. It would be nice if the entire generation of consoles failed due to stupid pricing and lack of games, but I don't have my hopes up for that.
Remember back when consoles are sold at cost or even a slight loss but had a huge variety of games to play that made up for the margins in sales volume? Sure would be nice if we could get back to that.

I think he was referring to the used market, though that in itself has more to do with having to hunt for competent deals and often times consists of old-old parts (like RX 580s or Post-Core Pentiums for the most part.

mostly brand loyalty but sony obviously overestimates how many snoys they have and how many people just own a playstation.
shiny baubles is kind of interesting because gabe is closing on in, the new gabetroller is prett good:
if you don't count shit like the patents for ads and equally retarded shit, of course.
Sure, but then he needs to specify the used market. But when we're talking about $800 consoles and the PS5 likely being $1000+, the conversation obviously wasn't about used hardware in the first place. Especially when it's about niggercattle consoomers.

I think ya’ll are missing the point. The die hard Sony ponies aren’t going to throw out their decade plus digital library to go buy a PC and rebuild their collection. They will either stick with the PS5 until it dies and buy another second hand, or buy a PS6 because newest sports ball and COD.
I mean, how long has Madden and COD released games on the PS4 after PS5 was released?

You know, at least magazine subscriptions back in the day came with an actual magazine, something physical, and they didn't magically poof away when you decided to renege on your monthly fee. Now these jews (and rice jews) are making you pay to physically own nothing, and when you're fed up with all the renting and the mediocre games and movies you paid for, they just get snapped out of existence until you're ready to get on your knees and start renting again.
Nigger I can't think of any other dictionary term to describe that other than scam. I think the "punch" of it is often lost in all these online conversations day to day... but that shit is FUUUUUUUUCKED.

The reality for the PisS6 is that buying groceries is not a simple "easy" thing to do anymore. I and many other people see the buttfucked receipts at the store, it is noticeably getting fucky out there.
