Hello anons. I must confess I'm about to switch from PC to PS4 because it's too fucking expensive to afford a decent rig in my third world country.

Talk me out of it.

Can you afford 60 dollars every time you want a new game?
>>
But anon, what if PS5 comes out?
>>
>>323043229
pc games are free
you dont pay for online

Overall, it's better to upgrade your PC. You'll get better performance and it'll be cheaper, as the games on PC are usually cheaper and it's easier and more efficient to pirate them on PC. But if you really can't afford it, then there's nothing wrong with that. You'll get worse performance, but that's not the of the world. There's Bloodborne and other cool exclusives coming to PS4.

I thought consoles were more expensive than PC parts in shitholes in the third world

You pay $60 for new AAA games on PC too

And Id rather pay $60 for a physical disk than $60 for a license

>inb4 G2A or other people privately selling off their codes

>>323044715
Wat
PC games are cheaper. By a mile. And I live in a third world country
>>
Most people dont differentiate beetween wanting and needing something.
Most people dont need more than a 380 but they want a 980ti.
What I'm going at is that you dont really top of the line PC.

Why would I talk you out of a great decision?

go for it

>>323043229
If money is an issue, front load it all into a PC, and pirate all your games. If you're a moralfag then buy said games after you pirate them when they're on sale.
>>
>>323045321
>3 games on that list that i want to play
well, back to /vr/, modern gaming is still shit.
>>
>>323045406
Sounds like your taste is shit if anything. Please do go back to /vr/, it's more of a pit of whiny manchildren than /qa/ is.

Yeah sure. But this is /v/ where people unorinically think that tr4sh is better than melee.

One fun/sad thing is that neither Xbox 360 nor PS3 was able to feature *rain* in Mass Effect.

Are you retarded? Various services sell new games for $40 in South America, such as Nuveem & Origin
>Inb4 Origin
They have many games that aren't EA games for $40

>>323045321
Do you have a list excluding all that weeb shit? I'm not really into that.

Just looking at steam:
>JC3: $60
>Naruto: $50
>XCOM2: $60
>The Division: $60
>GTAV still $60
>F4 still $60
>R6:S still $60

AAA games like sitting there, regardless of platform or format.

PC gaming sounds even worse now.

Sorry should have known this was Bait. People don't go on switching from PC to PS4 unless they had all of their friends on PS4, and that is unlikely as well.

Literally.
L.I.T.E.R.A.L.L.Y.
says "playstation and PC" not "PS4"

>>323045963
sure. It's the exact same list, feel free to remove all good games and remain with the shit
>>
>>323046276
>implying pc games are the only ones with sales.

christ, I picked up bloodborne for 10 bucks on black friday.

also used games are a thing when physical is still widely used on your platform.
>>
>>323046528
Never really said PC games were the only ones on sale, but even you gotta admit were far better than those on consoles.

I own an XBone, and that thing only got the most recent games on sale for like 25% off or 50% off max, and older games still were full price like H:MCC.
(Don't know about PS4, but I know for a fact sales on PS3/Vita was complete shit, and PSP games were still full price)
>>
>>323046979
Its true, console sales don't typically beat PC sales.

But being able to sell your physical copies after you're done can certainly make up the difference.

I'm an idort, and I will always, always go physical if its an option.
>>
>>323044602
its is
>>
playing games on PS4 is better desu
>>
>>323044187
it's basically shitposting from all walks of gaming.
i own a ps4 and shitpost about console gaming all the time. it's just fun to strike nerves on neo /v/ with reddit memes and modern warfare 2 "nostalgia" and classic RE tank controls. these are the best topics to shitpost about and gets everyone real mad, throw in some bloodborne and BAM you got a cocktail of asshurt.

i'm from a third world country too and consoles are fucking expensive, you are retarded or just false flagging
>>
>>323051106

Why? Why would a ps4 cost more than a 390+ i7?
>>
>>323051106
GEE I DON'T KNOW, A PS4 COSTS THE SAME AS A FUCKING 4790K IN HERE
>>
>>323044715
Green man gaming you pleb

yep false flagging

>>323051312
It seems your PS4 has free games?
>>
>>323051438
This, in Mexico games cost at least $60 us dollars, and semi-new games around $40-50
>>
>>323045756
Haha can't handle opinions? It's because you're a bitch. Fuck off if you don't like it. You're on the mighty 4chan-/v/. We're the asshole of the internet and proud of it

>>323043229
Will you be happy?

>>323043229

>I'm poor and can't afford decent PC so I decided to switch to system where buying 5-6 games will cost me same amount of money that said decent PC!

If you are THAT retarded, you deserve your punishment. Go and buy PS4.
>>
>>323043229
>Switching from PC to PS4
There's no such thing like this, you can't live without a PC
>inb4 underage gaymer

If you did things right, the money you'd be shelling out for a current Gen console, plus games, accessories, PSN etc would be better spent on a PC upgrade
>>
>>323043229
Only go PS4 if you like 10 of the system's exclusives
>>323046979
>Never really said PC games were the only ones on sale, but even you gotta admit were far better than those on consoles.
A few years ago, sure.
Now publishers are doing everything they can to make PC as unappealing as consoles.

>>323044715
no games here in Brazil are $60 when they come out.

Example: Rise of the Tomb Raider is R$130 right now, or $32. $60 would be R$240.

Console games are always $60 or more (usually more)

Detroit isn't coming out on PC... is it?
