I want to start with a ps5 console, but considering that I can afford a console, I don't necessarily have to afford a game. Now a 3A masterpiece is almost three or five hundred yuan.
Playing a dozen games a year is already very expensive. And the host can only play games, and now although the price is cheap, it is close to 4,000 yuan, which is enough to buy a medium-sized computer.
Some hesitation to make up their minds, so they consulted a few senior player friends, in the end the host value is not worth buying.
One PC player said that there is no need to start a console, and buying games on Steam often encounters discounts that are much cheaper than consoles.
And the configuration of ps5 is equivalent to the graphics card 3070ti. Having that money to buy a 3080 ti graphics card directly upgrades the PC is more fragrant. And now the exclusive game of the host is also less and less, there is no need to buy the host anymore.
The friend of the console player said that the console is specifically for the production of the game, and there is no way to simply use the graphics card model to compare the performance. And the unique gaming experience brought by the PS5 controller is absolutely not experienced on PC.
There is also a very important point is the preservation of the value of the host, Ps4 has been on sale for nearly 10 years now, but the second-hand machine can still sell to half the price of that year. If it were a PC, the PC from 10 years ago would now be sold as scrap.
The game of the host looks expensive, but if you buy a physical disc, you can directly sell it after playing it, and you can calculate a game, sometimes you can play it for twenty or thirty yuan.
This is not possible for the PC, pc games are all to activate the code, can only be used once, there is no way to sell second-hand.
PC gamers say that game manufacturers are increasingly inclined to digital versions of games. Physical games will be cancelled sooner or later, because the second-hand circulation of physical discs has greatly affected the revenue of game manufacturers.
It is said that a physical game disc can circulate to at least 5 players. And the cost of physical discs at the time of sale is also much higher than that of digital versions. Digital game manufacturers can get 70% of the revenue, while physical disc game manufacturers can only get up to 50%, or even only 30% of the income.
Because of this, the Xbox One has taken the lead in announcing the cancellation of physical games. Although Sony has not cancelled it, it now also requires a member to be online, and the cancellation of the game's physical disc is sooner or later.
So now even if you buy a host, don't spend more than 800 yuan to buy a cd drive, maybe in a year or two, game manufacturers will no longer sell disc games.
What netizens say makes sense, and I can't make up my mind about it myself.
According to everyone's analysis, in fact, it is the most cost-effective way to buy a host and then buy a disc. But I'm worried that one day, the physical disc will disappear.
Because almost 90% of players will sell the disc second-hand after playing. According to the game company's own statistics, just because of this, the game company lost nearly 30% of its profits.
It is often said that only children make choices, and adults who do not make choices like them.
The person who said this is estimated to be a very rich person, like me who only has 20 yuan of pocket money per month, and it is not easy to save enough for a host.
Fortunately, there is also an XBox360 for more than 10 years that can still be played, this thing is really quite resistant, and it has not been bad for so many years.
