The PS4 is going all PC on us and we are wondering what keeps you coming back to consoles anyway? What's unique to the console world?

That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.
what a dumb take.
Ace Combat 7 is one of the best games of the past generation. It doesn't need VR gimmicks to "redeem" it.
I have enjoyed nearly every single Ace Combat to death (except that helicopter shooting one) and have never needed VR once to enjoy it greatly
^^^ I'm guessing you've never actually tried it in VR then? VR elevates games like this way beyond just a gimmick, just ask any GT fan who owns a PSVR 2. You may not need VR to have a good time but it's an absolute game changer and something that shouldn't be dismissed as a gimmick.
@Abriael
Spoken like someone who never played it. But who are we kidding. We know why VR hate. No one is fooled here.
@PapaBop: I tried it in VR before any of you ever did, since the game wasn't even out yet. It's a gimmick, disjointed from the AC7's main gameplay and far removed from its best parts.
It's nothing more than a limiting factor, as Ace Combat's most complex missions require hardware power to be focused on other things. That's why the VR missions are very basic.
If you think Ace Combat's strengths are even close to the platform it's on, VR or non-VR, you obviously aren't an Ace Combat fan.
In any case, I suggest you folks prepare yourself for disappointment. There's a reason why the VR gimmick was never expanded, and it's that, besides a few fanatics who care for evangelizing their VR fad more than they care for the franchise, no one gave a flying F.
The developers are going to use the resources to make the whole game better for everyone instead.
Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.
I just want them to remaster AC4 and AC5, a new AC with better more realistic looking world and planes would be great too
Getting a victory in Fortnite Battle Royale is more more challenging after the recent change.
Its simple. U wont be able to play sony 1st party games on pc. Heres a couple games, Uncharted series, God of War series, Warhawk, Heavy Rain, The Last of Us, Beyond Two Souls, and the list goes on.

Cuz all my friends are on PS that's why.And we never have to worry if our machine can play an upcoming release like on PC.Now let's stop this fan boy crap and just enjoy our games OK? *Goes back to KZ 2*
My question is more like
Why not just make the PS4 a PC also?
For the same reason that consoles have always been the primary form of videogaming: accessibility. Even if all consoles could play were multiplats, they'd still be more popular than PCs.
It's just easier and less expensive. Plus some people prefer to game comfortably on their couch/bed and not be tied to their desktop. You can work around that on a PC, sure, but it isn't as simple as just plugging your console into your tv.
PC gaming performance graphically degrades over time, too, which is a major issue to me. What may be a stunning Ultra-Resolution-Setting gaming rig today may only be able to handle games on medium/low quality a few years down the line. Console games on the other hand just keep getting BETTER with age. The older the console the more familiar the developers become with its hardware and the more capable they become at milking it for all its worth.
Graphically PC's will always be better than consoles but for a lot of us it isn't worth the time, money and headache to really keep up with the ever-changing market of graphic cards and processors.
Plus it's really nice to be able to buy a game and just KNOW it's going to be able to play. With PC games you need to make sure it's compatible with your system or else you may end up getting sluggish performance, or not even be able to play at all. Consoles on the other hand will always play the game.
