I thought this discussion was about Sony continuing to invest in the console ecosystem, not specifically for people who already had a gaming PC.

I do agree support is getting better quickly but it still has a ways to go, at least to match the compatibility of consoles.

No it was just a comment to getting a gaming PC and a console. I've had a PS3 and PS4 for just the exclusives and encountered the drawbacks as a PC gamer used to PC performance being forced to use a console for the exclusives. So console is not an area I'm unfamiliar with, and personally over two console generations I found my PC to be the better living room experience, since PS3 and PS4 fell short of performance expectations.

So this gen being able to not bother with one and just opt for only a hdmi cable was a dream come true as opposed to PC gaming and console combo. And looking at the console games that ended up trapped to being only playable on the console it was released while PC games I bought during the same time frame being playable and upscaling with the hardware to run better has made me more satisfied with my PC game purchases.

Oh my bad, yes we were (I brought it up lol) comparing consoles and PCs. You are correct.
