How old are the old games you want to play? The PS5 can play more than 99% of the PS4's library. That's basically every game released on PlayStation in the last 9 years.

The Xbox can play about a third of the 360's library and a handful of OG Xbox games - which is a bit of a shitty selling point for a 500 buck console in 2022.

If ps5 is more expensive and you don't care much for exclusives than go with xbox. Take into account though what you want to play, what your friends play on, price, etc.

End of the day both consoles are great!

Last of us is on pc, right? I think I'm just gonna end up going with the series x and when I have the money I'm just buying an epic gamer pc with ps controller to play the exclusives (and all the other games I want, but with keyboard and mouse)

The original xbox games that are backwards compatible are really good choices though, plus they are 1440p 30fps minimum on next gen.

Right but if you want to play older games like PS3 and PS2, you have to get the premium tier. Also Xbox will optimize old games like New Vegas while ps doesn't.

I've a Series X and a PS5. While the pimped out older games on Series X is nice, it's a pretty fucking lame selling point for a new console in 2022.

If I want to play PS3 and PS2 games, I have a PS3 and PS2 (turns out, I've already played most of them to death, so I don't actually want to play them).

Okay good for you, most people don't have a PS3 and a PS2. To me, nothing but exclusives kinda sucks. That's a pretty lame selling point especially when a majority of exclusives end up going to other platforms anyway.

But it's not "nothing but exclusives", it's still got all the other games. You might also want to review your use of the word "majority" here, because the majority of PS exclusives are still exclusives to PlayStation.

And if you're salty about that, let's look at Xbox using the same criteria - it effectively doesn't have exclusives.

Hey listen. I get you're a console fanboy so you're unable to think past ps good Xbox bad but like I said, I like both. I just don't care about exclusives and that's their biggest selling point. Also idk why you're stupid enough to assume I didn't know there's other games like? Nothing but exclusives refers to their selling points since I have to make this easier for you to understand.

"It effectively doesn't have exclusives" Well no shit I said I don't care about them. And sure, if it'll make you stop crying, my bad for using the word majority.

Like do you get off arguing about consoles? Idk get why both console fans hate each other so much. You're acting like a child and your comprehension is also on the level of a child.

Lemme just state it again because I know you're just going to bitch about Xbox and say I'm hating on ps. BOTH ARE GOOD.
