Shawn Layden has shed some light on this views and thinking when he started releasing games on PC. Says it was never about making money.

    I mean why bother getting a console. how many exclusives does the PS5 have? 25. Plus the damn thing overheats more than the original 360. there’s a youtube tech repair guy I follow and many of his posts are about customers bringing in PS5’s that have overheated. hell today he had a youtube short up about all the overheated ps5’s he’s got in his backroom. why bother?

      One could probably spend the next 4 years just playing a backlog of 50-75% discounted games made over the last 5 years on an “average” PC made in the last 2 years.

      But… New thing shiny.

      How many exclusives does the PS5 have? 25.

      If you only count those exclusive to the PS5 and not simply the “PlayStation ecosystem,” there are only 6.

        That can’t be right. You have;

        Astrobot

        Demon Souls

        Ghost of Yotei

        Sarous

        And, it might be pretty close to 6 actually. I can’t think of anything else.

        Edit - seeing as I was on Wikipedia here is a list of PS5 exclusive games. Total is 25(including announced but unreleased) games.

          Demons Souls is PS exclusive but not a PS5 exclusive.

            Had to double check, but no, the remake is PS5 exclusive.

                It does have content additions and changes you won’t get with the OG PS3 version 🤷‍♂️

                  Tbf I have only played the original, I was just being a pedant for the sake of it. Is it good?

                    I’ve only play the remake, and yeah. Except I have a bug getting past the super easy dragon gimmick boss (he keeps breathing fire at me while I am still back at the checkpoint so I can not get down the hallway to the puzzle part).
