The PS5 was such a disappointing mispurchase. I was so excited to finally get one... It just doesn't feel like any major improvement over a PS4. It is just gathering dust except for the occasional Blu-ray movie.
The promise with new consoles used to be "look at our new console, it has a new controller, a new philosophy of game design, AND better graphics! that will be $250 please!" and now, new consoles are like "we haven't changed our game design philosophy, menu UI, or the controller in 20 years, but now we have a new lighting effect that you won't even be able to make out because we've added so much motion blur to our titles to hide the poor frame rates! that'll be $700 please!"
