The PS4 Will Not Die
Ойындар
Today we are taking a look at the PS4 and the longevity that this console has had. It really seems like the ps4 will not die as it continues to get new releases and will most likely continue to for the near future.

Ngl, it's my 2nd fav console of all time if we count everything: exclusives, multi plats, remakes, remasters, ps1/ps2 classics, etc. None will be able to steal that 1st place from the PS2 though but I am pleasantly surprised with the PS4. Initially when I bought it, I thought maybe I would have 10 games for it and call it a day, now I have slightly over 200. Still no reason to upgrade at all and there probably won't be.

The playstation 2, mind you, lasted a good 15 years, so PS4 might be the same as the Playstation 4 if you ask me. And around the time PS4 came out is when the PS2 was discontinued by Sony themselves.

Games you couldn't play on Nintendo*** there are probably only a couple dozen PlayStation exclusive games that haven't been ported to another platform (PC or Xbox.) Most are usually multiplatform, but they don't get ported to switch bc of it's low power
You’re probably more in touch with the player base than any of the current gaming executives.

I've been dying for a proper successor to the PS VITA, the thing that killed the Vita was proprietary memory cards being a requirement. So while I'm hoping the rumor is true, I'm hoping they learn from the Switch and use microSD cards for storage (or allow us to slot in a small SSD).

Portable PS4 makes sense. Sony moved their HQ to California and made a clean break from Japan after the PS3. It's why PS4 wasn't backwards compatible like PS3 was. The PS4 hardware is also basically a PC compared to the custom architecture Sony used on PS1/2/3, making multiplatform easy. Plus we've seen downgrade ports to XB1 and Switch. For better or worse, gaming has become very consolidated.

Lmao, this is nothing but pure copium. The PS5 offers unlocked framerate and a move away from mechanical drive on the PS4 to SSD. You also get a far greater experience of gameplay on PS5 playing through the PS4 backlog. It’s not just about “graphics” as plaything through the backlog of PS4 games are far superior on ps5. Literally no reason to own a PS4 in this day and age when you consider how 95% of the PS4 library is playable on PS5. But, hey. If you want to slog through 30fps instead of 60fps on PS5 while playing your PS4 games, then you do you. 😂

@cbgg1585 that's kind of the point, 95% of the ps4 catalog is available on ps5. I remember going from ps2 to ps3 and the changes were so ecstatic, the consoles are so different.it upgraded in every way and most teams focused solely on the ps3 to the point it forced you to buy a PS3, But there's almost no reason to go from 4 to 5 because games are still being produced for both and still run smoothly and look visually impressive. I have a 4 and 5 and maybe only have 8 physical games over the course of 3 years
I think the PS4 is gonna go down as arguably the greatest gaming console of all time. That era of video games was kinda perfect tbh. Great selection of games, amazing exclusives, and in regard to performance, it was able to run some very graphically demanding games, even by today’s standards. Video games at that time struck a great balance of introducing next-gen game mechanics and great visuals. It’d have been nice if Bloodborne ran at a higher fps lmao but yeah. Lots of great memories with the PS4

It’s only worth it if you got the spare money to buy $70 PS5 games that are mostly just reskins of older and much cheaper PS4 games anyways? Four years into the PS5 cycle and it’s barely got ANY new titles and the price point of Sony PlayStation is getting ridiculously high. Factor in the new levels of premium support for their PSN live online service and it’s becoming way too greedy. They forget how hard people had to save up for the older cheaper consoles and went way beyond the magic consumer price point of $300 which has always been the bar for the average console gamer. Beyond that price point and it starts to look like a household investment that you need to think about and will lose to a decent pc that can do many more things than just game.

People like you are so blinded that you don’t seem to understand that the PS5 offers unlocked framerate, HENCE getting better experience playing though your PS4 backlog on PS5. A killer library isn’t an excuse NOT to upgrade. The vastly superior experience playing through PS4 games on PS5 should be enough to make the upgrade. Why would people would persist with 30fps for games like Shadow of the Colossus over 60fps on PS5 beggars belief. Sure, there is “60fps performance mode” on the PS4 pro, but it doesn’t always reach it. Fluctuates far too much. The PS5 unlocks the framerate and fixes this issue and runs the game at a locked 60. Gamers are seriously naive if they can’t see the vastly superior experience of playing backwards compatible titles on PS5. No reason not to upgrade as 95% of PS4 titles are backwards compatible with the PS5.

I think you should probably stick with the regular if you already have it If you didn’t know by the way, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:9-13 KJV “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” Mark 1:15 KJV If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on KZread and a KZread channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)

New to your channel. Really liked your conversation and will subscribe to stay up to date. Your analysis was so spot on, especially about tough economic times and the gain for the average gamer. It also didn't help that Sony didnt do enough to stop scalpers when PS5 first came out which turned a lot of people off. Just like you, I have both PS5 and PS4 and still prefer my PS4 because it's good enough, and I can operate the controls and navigate in total darkness when I game at night because it's so familiar. As you said, cross gen is still supported, and the legacy game selection is so broad and affordable. Also I can get so many kids titles of retro games so that is another PS4 advantage. I think PS4 and PS5 will retire at the same time . If Sony adds PS3 backwards compatibility like they've talked about for PS5 that might finally motivate people to get the newer console.
You deserve a Million subscribers 🥺
The PS4 is my modern Resident Evil machine, but you are very correct, extremely valid system to use even in 2024, my next pickups will be RE3 and 4 remake, and hopefully Spider-Man. It’s almost overwhelming how many game are on offer at this point and for those with just a regular hd tv the graphics are incredible. Best f2p game of all time imo, Warframe, insane experience and incredible community.

PS5 slim is smaller.
I started collecting Vita’s around 2020 and totally neglected my PS4. Just completed both Horizon Games and bought Ghost Director Cut and will start soon. Amazing Console.
No one is addressing it... but it's also because their "exclusive" games are being given away for PC since 2019. What's the point of buying a PS5?
You know how many games people have on their hands and not enough time to finish them at all? Just a phone alone can let you play all the games in history up to Switch era. Couple that together the vast library of games on ps4 who have time for ps5 at all.
My PS4 still alive and kicking and as long as it still gets huge releases I'm totally fine with my PS4, plus I still play my PS3 from time to time, cuz I have a huge PS3 and PS4 library
I think you nailed it. I’m a patient gamer with kids and expenses and cost of living sucks all the while ps5 price is still high for such few games that I couldn’t get for ps4. I still have a ton of ps4 games that I’m working my way through and adding more to my backlog because the value is just great picking up great games dirt cheap for under $20 and sometimes under $10. I just don’t see the need to upgrade and pay $500 for a system and $70 for games that only marginally look better (the generational difference gets smaller every generation) when I can wait it out a bit playing good games for dirt cheap and not wait until ps5 gets a price cut, more games, the price of those ps5 games comes down etc. I could probably easily make it another 2-3 years on just ps4

i am going to keep my ps4 for as long as i can. my brothers have had them since they came out i finally got my own in august and i have already made so many irreplaceble memorys with my brothers and my friends. no other console could ever replace it.
Honestly looking at my ps5 collection, the only ps5 only games I have are Spiderman 2, FF7 Rebirth, Jedi Fallen Order and the Dead Space Remake, which I’m sure could’ve had a playable ps4 port. Hogwarts, elden ring, God Of War Ragnorak, resident evil 4 and Horizon Forbidden West are huge games and they got a ps4 port.

I think this is spot on but one thing to note is that, though cheap, a lot of PS4's need servicing. I picked up a slim at a garage sale for $45 and when I tried loading a couple discs it failed to because of a weak laser eye. That lead to a full service. The unit was totally caked with dust inside. And though I have the ability to do this the slim has a lot of screws and parts. It's a pretty complex unit.
Hi! Have just watched your video and really enjoyed it. Personally, I'm not rushing out to get a PS5 anytime soon. I have only had my PS4 for a little over a year now - 1 of 2, I might add - but have only used it a Blu-ray player! Despite a fair collection of games. Also, I'm more into the retro stuff, anyway!
I have 0 reason to upgrade besides 1 game that’s coming out next month but that game is also coming out on ps4 too but my situation was dumb lol. I preordered the limited edition of it expecting myself to have a ps5 by now from when all that scalping was still going on and I never ended up getting one because of it. Now that time has passed I see that there was nothing worth getting a ps5 for anyway. I don’t play online much either so I’m not interested in all those lame copy paste shooters and stuff either

PS4 install base is 100+ Million. PS5 Install base is 59 Million. Literally always hating on the PS4 for no reason. (PS5 is still getting their Next-Gen Updates/Features on games either way, so they need to stop complaining.) Maybe we 100 Million+ PS4 gamers should switch to Xbox or PC, sense PS5 owners are still on this (PS5 Only Movement) crap. Let's see how sony would like only 59 million gamers who are not buying games. PSPlus PS5 players don't buy games. We PS4/Pro players buy shitloads of Physical Games. xD

The clarity and boost in frame rates on current gen is great. That's all it really is though, just a nice thing to have but not essential. The most important thing is if the games are still good, which they still are on older systems. I have a PS5 and mid-range PC but I also still love the Switch which is even less capable than PS4. The games are just that good on that system.

the ps4 fixed the only issue with the ps3, the low amount of ram and a badly aged gpu. Ps5 should have increased cpu power more because graphical improvements are diminishing, but what is easily noticable is npc count in open world games and physics etc. Ps5 should have had a good gpu but mainly a good cpu so games could innovate because as of now ps5 looks same as ps4 if you are on 1080p display

This has been the most disappointing console generation. Too many cross gen games, remakes and remasters. Not to mention the overpriced PlayStation subscription services and DEI infested games and censorship.

Another reason is because the ps5 still hasn’t decreased its price yet after 4 years
There are only handful of PS4 games which are being enhanced for ps5...most of them are first Party titles apart from that, PS4 pro runs almost every PS4 game just like PS5...there are still not enough exclusive titles on PS5 which justifies it's 499 usd price tag...
