Reply to comment by Anubra_Khan in Gaming PC & Xbox Series X with Game Pass Ultimate or Gaming PC & PS5? by h3w1tt84

That statement is just wrong, you get differing games on PC and Xbox. Yes a lot are on both but there are games that are on one or the other.

Gamepass Ultimate will give the possibility of playing the games on either the PC or Xbox, a lot share their saved game so you can play on either machine and have the same progress/save game. The xbox and PC will compliment each other.

​

I have PC and Series X with ps5 UNOPENED and shoved in the loft.

They wont complement each other if you can only play the same games

How dumb are you dude, thats exactly why they will complement each other. OP says he wants a console for the bedroom. IE his PC is not in the bedroom.

Let me explain it in simple terms for you.

​

OP plays game on PC, saves progress. Later on, goes to bedroom, fancies playing said game again, switches on Xbox, plays game with SAME SAVED GAME PROGRESS as PC , carries on from where he left off.

How is that not complimenting each other.

​

Also as I previously said, there are differing games on both PC and Xbox gamepass. There are also games that are on both and work as I described above. Both services are NOT exactly the same.

​

Anyway, isn't time you went back of to r/ps5 and joined the rest of the fanboys.....

Still, if you already have a pc and can only play the same games, its worth more to buy a PS5 for the seperate library. Pc for xbox and pc exclusives, ps5 for PlayStation exclusives

Oh you mean those PS exclusives that Sony are slowly bringing across to PC to try and combat MS and Gamepass?

OP if you can afford it then buy both consoles. But if your an avid PC gamer then the xbox will complement that.

This is exactly what I'm thinking. My desk is downstairs and I have a 4k qled 32" monitor (thinking of getting ultrawide soon) Upstairs in bedroom I have the Samsung oled s95b. So would like to play one game on pc and the same again in bed later once kids asleep. I think il go with Xbox. I have played all PS4 exclusives and will sure miss out on a few especially the new god of war. But Starfield interests me more and the cross save will come in handy! Saves taking my pc upstairs!

PC has everything available to xbox and more. It's just a fact. Seems like a waste of money to have both but I'm glad it works for you.

Did you read the original post at all?

Quite clearly the OP wants a CONSOLE for his bedroom so clearly has the funds to buy one. They also already see the benefit of having gamepass on console and PC.

Obviously I did. He asked if he should buy a PS5.

I'm not sure that the 80 - 100 old games that xbox game pass has over pc game pass (most of which can still be bought and played on PC) is worth a $500 console and an additional $60 a year.

For that same price, you can get the PS5 and PS Plus collection. For another $40 a year, you get another 400+ games, including many PS exclusives. Perfect for anyone who wants to get caught up if they are new to the system. This is cheaper than Game Pass Ultimate, has about the same amount of games and way more games that are not available on PC.

It also gives him access to exclusives that may or may not be released in 1 - 3 years after release on PC.

So yeah, I read his post and provided my recommendation along with the logic behind it. Have fun raging about it for no reason and providing very little logic to support your stance.

Ok you make a good case there but my point still also stands. Being able to share game progress between PC and console is big plus for GPU.

Sony are lagging behind in this battle this time around. PS Plus is a reactionary response to Gamepass. Sony have repeatedly stated NO AAA games on day one.

On a side note...... One thing I really don't understand, every time there is a discussion around Xbox/PS5/Gamepass etc, the Sony fans always point out exclusives as the MAJOR selling point of the PS5 (Just as you have done above). While at the same time contradicting themselves by screaming blue murder that MS might make some Activision games "Exclusive". I don't play COD but I kinda hope they do make it exclusive as an "up yours" to all the "Sony is allowed to have exclusives but MS is not" crew.

I have no stake in the console wars btw as I have both current gen machines plus a gaming PC. May even open up and unbox my PS5 soon as it seems the jailbreaking scene is hotting up there and it wont be long before all those exclusives will be up for grabs on the net for free anyway!

There is no console war. For somebody who has no stake in it, you sure are bringing up a lot of Xbox vs PS topics that no one asked for.

I'm just giving OP an honest recommendation based on the info he give us. If he didn't have a PC and couldn't afford one, I could just as easily recommend a series X over PS5.

And I gave an honest opinion that differed from yours.

Also just looked through your post history and it seems you have a history of being arrogant/belittling on various posts. Now I understand this whole thread.
