2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding.

Generally games where people had fun making them feel better to play.

Doesn't surprise to hear this. If Nvidia was really holding back, then AMD would have past them. I feel like they are starting to experience what the cpu side started seeing when they hit 4ghz and had to start chipping away at more clocks. It took longer as they are doing easily parallel operations, but it was bound to happen. I really wonder how both AMD and Nvidia will compare to their prior architectures next iteration. Will my 4080 still be faster than a 6070(ti)?

Did you know that Jensen Huang and Lisa Su are cousins? AMD only makes graphics cards to protect NVIDIA from antitrust lawsuits.

Okay but hasn't AMD been making GPUs long before she was with the company

If game performance is what makes games better then consoles will never reach the heights of PCs.

It says there that graphics performance doesn't matter that much.

If it's not graphics what is the PS5 doing that makes the games better on a PS5 if not performance?

Emulation won't exist for current-gen console until at least next-gen

I'm a patient gamer :)

Also, name 10 PS5 exclusives that aren't remakes of prior generation games (since those can be upscaled and played via emulation)

Even games released by Sony (e.g. Stellar Blade) are released on Windows. The age of Sony exclusives is no more (except Astro Bot, maybe)

Btw, Xbox releases on PS (like Sea of Thieves).

I'm going to guess that since only 14 games sold over 1 million on PS5, PlayStation is mostly used as a few-games machine
