How I Think Garry's Mod Should Work on PS4
The game is really good i love it, but why won't it be on the ps4?

(1) Controls: The controls would be just like from the ps3 of the orange box, but the touch pad will be the menu where you spawn your thing, and double tap it will bring out the player model menu/deleting props and to close them by pressing circle.

(2) Using the mods to transport to the consle: the way how it should do it is by connecting to your steam account and it'll try to connect your mods from the pc and it'll transport them on the consle.

(3) Playing multiplayer: It would be easy as simple by joining to random people's servers, but If we do the setup thing where we can go to quick match or join friends, and all that stuff.

(4) The Frame-rate: Now i know a lot of people will think that it'll be a lot of frame-rate, and etc. But you really have to think about it. Plus if you say it laggs a lot it's because it's your PC that makes it lagg not the game. I've experienced it with my pc and it works just fine.

(5) Crashes: Now crashes are not that comman. You can say that "it is" or something like that, but it really isn't. Depends on the pc you have and the processor that is in the pc itself.

If you guys got anything to say please leave a comment, and if there is any mean comments on here then don't say anything at all!

If any threatening, swearing, or any other negative stuff said in the comments then it'll be reported.

P.s: This is just my opinion so please don't jerky things about my opinion.

3. GMod takes up a lot of CPU, so much so that there have been reports of high-end PCs not being able to handle GMod. You think a PS4 could?

Basically, GMod would have to be dumbed down a whole lot to be considered for the PS4, almost to the point where you would just play it on your PC anyway.

Then address my points.

If you want Gmod on a ps4 just install Linux on your Ps4. Also why would the Gmod devs waste their time porting an old ass game to a next gen console?

The graphics doesn't matter. but it is possible for the ps4 to handle the game.

P.s Swearing dude.

You know that you can just connect your PS4 controller on Steam and play any sorts of games on PC with a PS4 controller.

Garry's Mod isn't for console or crossplay, like how do you suppose to mount Valve Source games that required for PS4 where they don't have it on the Playstation market?

Swearing isn't against the TOS. You aren't very bright, are you?

Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep fallin'
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me, it won't be long
'Till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me
It won't be long 'till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
Because I'm free, 'cause nothing's worrying me

Source has much different architecture on the console, having cross-platform addons would be impossible.
