Now we know why they stopped shipping games to PC. They need to prep their user base for a hardware price that will have users consider just buying a PC instead, taking away the “I can play the PlayStation exclusives on PC anyway” argument.

yeah have players change that to, "I don't need to play PlayStation exclusives"

I’m very much in that camp myself. I ducked out from consoles, having owned pretty much all of them since the Atari 2600, after the PS4. So many more amazing games on PC e.g. Song of Syx which would never work on a traditional console but is amazing on PC and even Steam Deck / Steam Controller.

PS3 killed consoles for me
