PC vs ps5?

[Kevfactor]

Im not sure which i should get the game for. I just have a first gen RTX 2060 laptop that i have hooked up to me TV.

PS5 has much better graphics than my current set up. Then again it is nice to listen to podcasts and stuff while on pc. THe ps5 music player locks up as soon as there is an ad.

The other thing to look at is player count, which will have a better pug scene and stuff like that. any suggestions on which is better?

No shade, I just want to understand but why would one "game" on a laptop... all that performance loss due to non existant cooling... and any "good" gaming laptop is way to expensive for how it performs...

I have it on PS5, I would recommend. All the crash people are describing here are not happening for me.

If your choice is either for a Ps 5 or a laptop, then go for Ps 5

My friend is using a laptop with RTX 3070 and it run like ♥♥♥♥, meanwhile my GTX 1080 is having better performance than him.

expensive for how they actually perform and for how long...
I don't know how to explain it clearly. To me it always feels like there was a grandma that wanted to buy something for her grand children and then got scammed (bc she does not know better) => ppl with "gaming" laptops

If I want a decent experience while gaming I always would build or modify my own system (I know not everyone can or want to do that).

A gaming laptop baffles me, maybe it is the same problem I have with mobile gaming - I simply don't get it. I'll try to understand but I fail to... :/

I just mention that Steam has biggest game library in the universe.

a good laptop is suited with compatible wares, they live longer than an EV car, they are portable - thats the big one.

phone gaming, no thank you.

desktop or laptop - still better than PS5.

I will never understand laptops for the purpose of gaming.

It's decent for less demanding games, especially if the laptop also has a work purpose and supports being on the move, but otherwise a desktop PC is usually the solution.

Trust me, you will not bring a PS5 into the office and pretend you are working.

My buddy complains that he can't bring his rig over to play Helldivers 2 at my place with my massive TV because it's cumbersome and risky to move.

I can just go to his house with a charger, an HDMI cable, and a controller and we're good to go.

That's why laptops.

OH YEAH and to actually answer the topic here, get it on PC. You don't really want to rub elbows with those putrid PS5 troglodytes... do you?

the game is cross-play

[Imnuktam]

a huge amount of people on pc turn cross play off, so if you are on PS you will have less people to play with compared to being on pc where you can choose if you want to play with PS people or not.

Can you not enable/disable crossplay from the PS5 side as well?
