    A PS5 pro blows this out of the water for a lower price

    Why everyone us this stupid argument? The PS5 pro cost less because sony will get back the money with the games they sell on the playstation store and the monthly subscription you are forced to pay if you wanna play online

    The playstation plus essential is €70 for a year, let’s say you will pay for 5 years, it will be €4350 sum it to the €898 of the console and you get €1248 spent

    The steam machine with 2TB is €1359 (or 1428 if you really want the controller) and you can use it forever, run old ass games with emulators, mod games, play pirated games, use it how you want, even for productivity and without any subscription

    Do you see why Valve can’t sell hardware for less like Sony does?

    This is NOT a console! It’s a PC that offer a plug-n-play expirience for who don’t want to build a PC and then config it!

    You just sit on the couch, turn on the gabecube with the controller and it give the same plug and play expirience of a console but with the freedom of a computer, you won’t spend 5/10 minutes to find the TV remote, turn on the TV, walk to the computer to turn it on, select the HDMI source on the TV, take a keyboard and a mouse to open steam, and THEN play.

    You aren’t the target audience if you don’t care about all this
