Can't afford it

@sbchamps17_NSW Sad. Maybe the Switch 2 will have a much better MLBTS version. But the PS5 is where it's at.

@Jacky-Chan1_XBL What doesn't make sense is pretending to be a baseball and The Show fan by complaining that it's not coming to Game Pass, if you really love baseball and want to support the game and your preferred console, you would buy the game like most of us do every year (I have never skipped a year).
So you can whine and scream from the top of your lungs demanding The Show to return to GP until you are blue on the face, meanwhile the rest of us will be playing from day one because we support the studio that develops it by purchasing the game we love (plus stubs).
Buy your games, or else is the reason why studios close and consoles fail. A tried and true business model.

Wow you're reaching. Making assumptions.

The game should be free to play on all platforms. They make all their money on microtransactions anyway.

@OfcJDFarva_XBL I'm 54 years old and work in software development. I'll take a console any day over a PC for gaming. Your $3,000 PC is a waste of $2,500 if you ask me. Imagine all the game you could have bought for that extra $2,500 - hell, that's enough for a really good used motorcycle!
-
The one thing some people need to understand. Most people can't afford to pay 70 for mediocre or even good triple a games. Especially if gta 6 is 80 to 100.
GamePass allowed people on budgets to play great games. It was a tremendous value.
Support your favorite devs and buy the games at full price? Are you crazy? Gaming is way too expensive now.

@Jacky-Chan1_XBL Clarify.

Specify?

Poor people should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps in order to pay full price for games. The nanny state is over.

ps5 and xbox are the same exact game. I've had both for the last 3 years.

@Jacky-Chan1_XBL You started it, LOL!
-
@LuvMyXBOX_XBL On Series X, yes, but on the Series Potato (S), nope.
-
@Jacky-Chan1_XBL I misread what you wrote. I'm actually largely in agreement with you.
-
@Tikire_PSN Just got an "S" and it's fine. Not sure why all the boo-jee comments about top of the line stuff. This is how computer geeks talk as well.

@BuddyHightower_XBL As a former PC gamer since the dawn of the 3D hardware accelerated GPUs in the 90's, I 100% agree with this. After the 2080RTX I abandoned my PC as my main gaming device (with consoles as a secondary option for exclusives), to a full time all console gaming experience (all three) leaving the PC for work only. No regrets, no looking back.
The inefficiency price/performance ratio gap between PC and consoles have skunk drastically over the years and the value of consoles have made PCs an overpriced expense for the diminishing returns.
Yes, PCs still hold "the master race" title of power-performance, but less noticeably so and not that impactful as it once was a decade to two ago. Plus games these days are mostly optimized for consoles leaving PCs severely unoptimized in the process, a fact that took me long and hard to accept.
Consoles produce less cost, less hassle, while enjoying the core experience of most major titles (I don't need 120fps, ultra widescreen, native 4K, etc. to enjoy a game). The recent trend of GPUs faking frames with AI at outrageous prices have only validated and reinforced my decision to make consoles my priority to play and PC as an afterthought for those rare titles only available on Steam.

I used to be a PC or die guy and now at 60 Ihave both a PS5 and a Series X for less than I normally spend on a new gaming PC. I never have to worry about dialing in the proper settings of having issues with incompatibility. It is just a more hassle free experience.
That said PC still has it's advantages, doubly so if you have a high end PC. I wish I could afford a High end PC right now to run MS Flight Sim 2024 in VR in all it's glory. PC allows mods and has a higher number of indie games (although they can usually run on lesser PCs as well) so their are use cases for a gaming PC as well.
