Im not much of a gamer (ironically I make games for a living) but I made a bet with my kids that if the Detroit Lions make the playoffs this year I’ll buy them a system, and its looking like almost a lock to happen, so I want to get in on some Holiday deals.
This is their first non-Nintendo system so I’m a little lost on which way to go at this point in the generation cycle. For reference they’re 7 and 9 year old boys and are gonna be new to gaming that isnt based around crafting or Italian brothers. (i made them use my old NES, then SNES first, then got them a Switch a couple years back)
The day 1 releases are what most people want though. The classic games from PS1, PS2, PS3 are nice, but it’s a joke that they make them exclusive to the highest tier of the service when anybody can just emulate those games on a low end pc nowadays. Almost all the ps4/ps5 games included in PS+ are old news by now, and the monthly games have been complete garbage for months now. They absolutely need games like Spider-Man 2 and GoW Ragnorok to be included for it to be worth the cost.
