The Xbox Series X, S and Playstation 5 are the new 9th generation gaming consoles that have more gaming power, more technical abilities and more potential than every other gaming console ever. But for some reason, they don’t have any magic, any video games worth talking about, and they seemed to have lost the entire reason people buy video game consoles. So in this video we breakdown what exactly has happened with the 9th generation video game consoles. Can the PS5 and Xbox Series X make a come back or are the video game consoles we once loved gone forever?

DEI
Micro transactions
Streaming
Three huge factors in the decline in quality.
it’s not even the games, it’s even the movies now. Where are the good movies at? I also remember more than 10 years ago I used to go regularly to the cinema because there would be good movies up. Nowadays there is nearly nothing, except some exceptions like for e.g. JOKER.
It’s also crazy seeing the clips at the end juat after our local version of Gamestop announcing bankrupcy and cloaing of all stores that aren’t affiliate stores
I switched from ps4 to series x . But there is No one playing online Games 👻 i pay for playing online Games alond dafuq
I think we all got older and now became a bunch of squidwards
We need Elon Musk to make a console.
Live service, battle passes, macro transactions – every game nickle and diming you, combined with woke racism in gaming has meant that companies that would have made Great games worth buying the system for, now make live service slop.
Live service and everything that goes along with it targets addiction and is not sustainable. When someone gets off a LS game, they dont want to pick up another. They are more likely to quit gaming than start another.
When Sony are all in on live service there are no tentpole games that make the system worth it. The few new games are ruined by DEI.
Gaming is in a sad place. It needs a collapse to make companies cut budgets and focus on great games again, rather than greed and DEI hires.
0:20 what is sunohara (va) from Clannad doing here..😂
Nintendo has won with fun games that you can play together on the couch with the whole family, most of the consumers just want value for their money😅
who cares? gaming already peaked in the 90s
Nintendo Switch is bucking the trend
didnt work for "battleroyal", worked for pubg till "battleroyal" delivered their brain rot version of pubg 7:50
As much as I’m sure everyone would love to have a pc they’re not very affordable for the average casual gamer. A console costs roughly $450-500. The average (Decent) pc that can run the same games as a console on the same level as a console is going to cost you about $1,000 on the low end. It’s just not always a great investment for most people.
Having started playing on a 2nd gen Atari 2600 then seeing the graphics of an NES which were amazing by comparison, then Sega Genesis, PS1 and N64, PS2, Xbox, etc; the new improvements and advancements in recent gens seem so small compared to the jumps i saw just a few gens has made it feel to me like ‘are we really in a new generation or is this just a + on the old, like what they do w/ jet generations’.
You’re correct in pointing out the flaws of the recent generations of consoles, but your overarching argument ultimately falls down in that you ignore the different use-cases of PC/Console. Consoles are for playing whilst crashing out on the couch – you just plug it in, turn it on, and play (yes, big updates hinder that, but these also apply to PC); PC is a more involved affair – I have to sit upright at my desk, load up whichever of the dozen different stores the game I want to play is on, fiddle with the settings to get it to work optimally with my setup etc. Valve recognised this and tried to remedy it with the Steam Link and controller, which didn’t catch on because (a) it still wasn’t as simple as loading up a console game and playing and (b) it relied on streaming the game, which is always going to be worse than playing natively.
So you want to take my xbox one i just got so i can be forced to buy a pc? Screw the ps5 and the new xbox they are more expensive, and the ps5 have garbage scam controllers. The hardware isnt up to snuff i can when you can buy a better pc for the same price. New Consoles need to become better. The upgrade is not worth it when i play games better games for the xbox 1
I first started playing Mario on a Nintendo and a huge crt tv.
Then on Amiga 500.
Actually had a go on a virtual PC system in London in the 1990s. Prior to that was ping pong in rich guys lounge rooms and in malls a driving game… mid 1970s….that looked like driving at night while tripping.
Space Invaders appeared.
Then had 166mhz IBM PC.
Playing Doom online with dial up. Mind blowing.
Then a PS1 playing Lara Croft.
Anyway I bought a PS3 and played GTA3 on a 1080p tv but abandoned the plot and just loaded weapon cheats and drove down crowded pavements. I still have hibernating in a cupboard.
So eventually I recently bought a P$5.
To play on a huge 4k tv.
Well now I am experiencing all the issues, all the updates, all the reruns and all the difficulty just playing the complicated games with the new hand piece.
The new console is gathering dust and I still need to pay it off from the Telecom company.
Greed is what happened to the 9th generation.
These are great points I didn’t realize, something else that’s noteworthy is covid and its impact on sales numbers of consoles.
All the problems of the “current” state of gaining was caused by “gamers” themselves. The SECOND always on was announce or backwards compatibility was eliminated the console should have TANKED. Instead they just kept buying and buying! Now consoles are getting away with selling people hyper-expensive spec sheets. All these modern consoles do is render “shiner and shiner” graphics. Modern gaming isn’t something you really even play, it’s just something you pay a subscription (ever increasing) to watch! That’s coming from a life long console gamer who opted out of ALL of this when the PS4 was released. Because I saw the writing on the wall when I saw the success of the CANCER that is the games Destiny/Fortnite/PUBG.
10:45 , gets worse when you’re in the country side and an update takes a week to a month to install typically… thus im an offline game player lmao
Problem is that games are taking wayyyyy too long to be made. There should still be these massive budget games, but only a few, most devs and publishers should focus on smaller games, or new ip.
Fuck me. Seeing the old halo 3 lobbies and voice chat makes me feel a desperate and hopeless nostalgia. Those were the very best times. I wish I could go back and tell myself that was the peak.
It was so heart warming to see people opening video game gifts at the end. Great!
I remember when i once went to the toilet with my Halo 2 Box. (Yes I know too much info, but I needed something to read!) And I unpacked that little booklet that was in there. I learned so much about the world of Halo. That the Elites are called "Sangheili" in their language and whatnot. Nowadays, you don’t even get stuff like that.
9:43 “ digital games that I already own” 😂 you don’t
I recently bought a PS3 just so I can replay Metal Gear Solid 2, 3 & 4. Retro gaming is the future. 🎮
the ps5 is the best console to play ps4 games
Hope y’all enjoyed the video!

Huge thanks to each and everyone one of you for your continued support <3 I could not be more grateful!
It’s when you said ‘PC gaming is a ‘couple of hundred bucks "OR MORE’!. Got kids that I’d have to buy 2 X PC hardware INCLUDING ‘like’ 2 X 4060 GPU’s or something, and then there’s poor fecking me as well. Jeez. Everyone knows PC gaming is better, waaaay better. But GPU prices (on top of all other hardware)? A console or a VR can be bought 2nd hand (with a risk), but it’s easier buying 2 consoles (EVEN NEW, ”’sometimes”’; depending), than Gaming PC’s for the household’. I hate it when my kid wants the new FIFA (not called that now), but you’re just paying for the ‘new’ transfers; that’s ‘basicly’ it!……Same game for more and more money every year; just with a shitty volta or different gimmick. It’s shite mate, utter shite. And yes, EVERYTHING wants to be fortnite. I like it ‘sometimes’, but fortnite is fortnite; and anything else….well it just isn’t!…..Basic console game 60, next level £80, but you can buy the ‘ULTIMATE’ version for in excess of £100. It is fricking AWFUL!!!! Shit, we pay enough every month for our gaming subscriptions just too be sold ‘sub par’ shit dude! And it gott waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay GREEDIER…..Yu can have a £300 VR headset, (But only with ‘minimal’ Storage!. If you want maximum storage; that’s another £100!!!!! For what! A fricking soldered Emmc drive or flash SSD to the sodding board in the headset. It’s insane. There should be laws against this. THERE SHOULD BE LAWS AGAINST THIS!!!!! It has become ‘beyond’ greed. it is an insult to gamers and OMG…….OMG…..OMG………………I loved the PS2, the Wii, and the 360……………I remember when the PSOne ‘Blew Me Away’!!!!!!!!!!! I totaly get you dude. Great video, and thank you 🙂 ……………… (Smiley face for the vid, not the greeds)…………..They know parents have to buy it for their kids. WEARE BEING OWNED! EVERYTHING DIGITAL…………………WE WILL END UP @COMPLETE SLAVES@ TOO THESE PPL>………………..warning! Rant Over…………. Sorry!
The answer is 3 Letters……….. D.E.I!!! Just look at games made 9-10 yrs ago, look better than the AAA video games made today in the West. The video game industry is now full of people HATE video games they just work there to be an Woke activist!
Not being able to play the games directly is hardware/cd limitiation. The games are compressed on the cd. And it’s gets uncompressed on the hdd/sdd.
Hello from the hammer… I’ve been playing video games, my entire childhood and all of my adult life so far… It was my main source of entertainment for many years.. but as you already know, games suck ass now and there has hardly been anything released in 10 years That’s worth the programming that’s done on it… Here’s a homework assignment for some of you… Go play the game! Prototype and prototype 2… Then when you’re done with that go play infamous and infamous. 2…. These are the kinds of games that really need to come back where you are powerful and the game is fun… Not a nightmare on your credit card. Trying to buy loot boxes for skins that don’t give you stat upgrades!!! Really don’t see the point in that…. I like to find loot and rare items and this item that makes you powerful and this item that makes you fly to the Moon or whatever it may be.. I want that feeling I got the day my son was born. I came home and my entire Guild mates were all waiting for me and then we destroyed molten core for the very first time.. I will never forget those things ..that was 18;years ago!….. Don’t even get me started about the division franchise… The love hate relationship we all have…. I will be 50 next year. My very first console was a Gemini system that played Atari and ColecoVision games.. I’ve had an adam computer which was a coleco vision computer learned in school on a Commodore 64. Got Nintendo for Christmas in 1986 with Rob the robot… Dragon Warrior final Fantasy metal Gear super Mario Brothers…. Gaming has been in my life for as long as I can remember… And it never sucked so bad as it has now… Bring back the power.. bring back the fun!….
WoKe is what happened 😂
that was a good review, gamers for life.
Console replaced arcade, just like what PC is now doing to the console. Arcade and Console, they are products of their own time, a compromise between performance and cost. When today’s PC can deliver both, while having access to majority of the cross-platform titles on top of the already massive PC-only games, is becoming increasingly hard to justify the purchase of a console.
The 7th generation and before were the best time for console, games weren’t broken mess at launch, the titles were unique, single-player focused, play right out of the box, respected the players’ time, and often came with little if any political non-sense. Devs weren’t influenced by the ‘mobs’ since social media had little to no power over anyone at the point, everything was the way it should be, and we will likely never see anything like this ever again.
Mid generation ‘refreshes’ like the PS5 Pro makes me question the very existence of the console, good graphics doesn’t make good games, it doesn’t matter how many FPS the machine can push, without good games and a gamer-friendly environment they have little reason to exist.
Crazy how it took sony 4 years to add a feature that was on the PS4 DAY ONE!! (The What’s New Tab)
Are you angry that I pre-ordered the Pro? Like on a general level, are you mad people are going to purchase this? Does consumerism make you mad when it doesn’t comport to your personal wants?
Mostly agree, but the consoles aren’t the problem, its just the games that are available are, and no, consoles arent holding back the power that games can achieve because they can be bought for around 600 dollars while a good pc now can be bought for almost 2000 dollars. If games just focused on pc and decided that pc is the lowest requirement, that means every gamer now needs to pay atleast 1000 dollars just to play a game, thats just not happening. The current consoles can run good games with good, stable and standard performance anything more is nothing but a bonus, but the question is, are there even games worth playing?
This generation of consoles pushed me to pc gaming. Was a huge playstation gamer since the original, but the ps5 made me decide I’m done with consoles.
Transfer speeds from a disk are too slow for 4k gameplay. That simple. The game needs to be installed on the SSD…
The current generation of consoles hasn’t even shown everything they’re capable of we are very far away from needing a new generation of consoles. We probably get it sooner rather than later because you know the businesses wanna make money.
We need to give Zekai American dollars. Maybe Zeni.
Nintendo and PC saving the industry.
I miss the good ol days man 😢
Playstation murdered their own ecosystem when they shut down communities for no reason
Maybe build a gen that can actually be considered a new gen. The consule should be able to open new possibilities for games so that we can have a wide variety of games that spark your imagination. Look at what going from the ps2 to PS3 was able to accomplish. The difference in games that resulted was incredible.
Today we get the ps5 and we get the same games we’ve already had but reskinned or tweaked slighty and are told, "Buy this brand new game!"
Just picked up a 3DS XL. So easy to get that going. Should I play a PC game? Sure, Diablo 2 Resurrected it is. Friends coming over? Let’s get that N64 out.
it’s simple… posers like you invaded the video game industry back in 2014 and destroyed it just like you did with movies, TV, music, wrestling and more. if you want something to improve or get better. you need to stop following it because you posers are the problem. these industries cater to you which is why everything regarding entertainment overall is crap now
got my ps5 this year. 3 years after release and still a lack of games. at least they gave us Wu Kong. waiting for MGS Snake Eater remake to save the day
