I have a high end-ish PC that can perform 4k 60hz very well and a PS5 for some exclusives. I play with a 9th gen Xbox controller on PC and I also love it. But after experiencing DualSense I slowly started to switch to PS5 just because of the controller. I even bought RE Village, Cyberpunk 2077 and Deathloop again on PS5 even though I own them at PC.

I also played Series X at my friends since it's trending and everyone here is buying Xbox'es. It's my two cents but even with slightly powerful hardware, performance and fidelity of SX seems same with PS5 to me.

Long story short I think it's worth to get ps5 just because of the controller because it's an important part of your experience and everything else seems par. But I suggest that you find a PS5 and play on it to experience yourself first, don't just take my word.

The thing is, overall I prefer the Xbox controller layout Vs the joystick layout on the PS5, so I'd go for Xbox but Ik the PS5 controller has all these new features so I'm kinda stuck

a lot of people prefer Xbox layout, but PlayStation layout is easy enough to get used to. plus you've got some unbeatable exclusives on ps5. maybe this is just my overall Sony bias but I think a ps5 is a better investment

Lol, I just feel like the ps isn't for me, I've heard some people say the actual console is built cheaper/worse than the Xbox, and I don't wanna pay £70 for every exclusive. I must say, the controller is very cool though. Also the PS5 looks like a WiFi router from the 2000s for me idk why. Don't even get my started on the ps butthurt fanbase. Either way I think both are great and it was a very close call, happy gaming!

just letting you know, Microsoft will be upping their exclusive price to 70 as well in 2023

Yeah Ik but they're mostly on gamepass anyways. Also lots of ppl were saying to get a PS5 just for exclusives but i don't wanna spend another 300 just on games lol

Have you looked at PS Plus? I see people talking about Gamepass all the time but in truth PS Plus in my opinion has an equally good library.

Obviously it does depend on which one has games that you are personally interested inn.

All these things you said are preference, and if you already made up your mind from the previous posts you made, then why bother asking if you've already decided. Both sides have butthurt fan bases, one looks like a fridge while the other router, etc. Play the games you want instead of nitpicking on things.

I've decided but haven't bought it yet so still asking for opinions. Also tbh I don't have anything against either but ps do have a very toxic 12 year old fanbase, the older ppl are normally chill, but the young fanbase is something I don't wanna touch

No! If your getting an Xbox controller, then changing batteries takes a long time. Because can just stick Type-C charger in the controller. Simple as that.

NecessaryQueasy6894 OP t1_j0dy1j9 wrote

What? I have no clue what you're saying, also changing batteries takes 2 seconds

Hockputer09 t1_j0dya5f wrote

What? No, you gotta show me proof. That it takes two seconds.

Batteries take 2 seconds, now you're asking for proof. Lmao

Really switching batteries takes you two seconds?

NecessaryQueasy6894 OP t1_j0dyv4y wrote

Yes, it doesn't take fucking hours, does it

Hockputer09 t1_j0dz3t5 wrote

Well, sticking a charger to a controller will take you maybe a millisecond.

NecessaryQueasy6894 OP t1_j0dz7gq wrote

I can use a usb on my Xbox controller lmao, works the exact same

Hockputer09 t1_j0e01kv wrote

And putting switching batteries is faster than putting a charger?

Hockputer09 t1_j0e05bm wrote

Also, is there two different methods for putting charging your controller, it doesn't make sense.
