OT Previous Generation vs Next Generation consoles

[Carlos]

Alright, so this is a thread that belongs in OT, because it kinda doesn't relate to Resident Evil.

Anyway, so there is a high percentage of PlayStation 4 players not leaving it behind. PlayStation 5 is selling pretty well, but the game attach rate is lower than previous generation. Many people aren't seeing the reason for moving up, upgrading or buying a new console like PS5...

Well, ever since the PS5 came out, I have only bought like one or two games in the last few years. I was broke a while back and resorted to selling my old PS2 horror games. But these days, a lot of people purchase games through Steam or they use emulators.

I kind of regret doing that. They cost a lot on eBay to get again, and that's also applied for used copies. But there was a lot of games I hardly attempted, as they were so difficult in my view, or just outright on the boring side. 🫨

Generally, I do favour the old generation because games were just more fun, and the storylines were good. In fact, the original RE2 was the game that made me fall in love with the survival horror genre. Then RE4 changed that, even if RE4 is still a great game, even now.
