Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss (www.videogameschronicle.com)

All I did was point out that no, the Steam Deck isn't the best deal for everyone

By saying something objectively silly, which was my point

Chill

Can't get any more chill than right now BBY

if you're trying to sell me the Steam Deck as a Playstation 5 Pro replacement I'd expect visual parity with at least the regular PS5, at comparable framerates

Pretty silly thing to expect given they're entirely different devices

It isn't a replacement for a stationary console or PC

Just wrong: it plays the same games and literally is a replacement for a PC if you want to go that route. Its not a top-of-the line monster powerhouse, but that's never what it claimed to be

And I wasn't going to go there but ease of use is also a major point in favour of the Playstation because you won't have to deal with "getting around" things, ever.

Lol Sonys User experience on PS5 is painful compared to using the Steam Deck for 95% of what you do, the other 5% breaks them even at best, if not leaving Sony in the dust of their pathetic design and walled-gardening

Different people have different use cases which are best served by different devices.

No shit? Doesn't change the fact that you're objectively wrong about the steam deck though

So is it literally a replacement, or an entirely different device?
