I’ve had them all (no pros) and probably won’t be getting another, judging by the way the industry is going.
It’s sad. I haven’t played my ps5 very much… And I’m enjoying older games or indies on PC more than any new games that come out. The quality of AAA seems to have fallen so far.
While simultaneously increasing in price. Pay more, get less. No thanks!
Started all the way left and have had every one but the 5 pro.
Damn the first two were some halcyon days. The PS2 was my introduction to staying up and hitting the refresh button on some site called amazon to buy one at launch. I still remember the feeling of the buy going through.
Sigh.
I only bought the 4 and 5 new, but I collect retro games and have all 5 base models. I used to pick them up on eBay or at garage sales back in the day. I remember that feeling of winning a bid (I didn’t have a lot of money for it, so it took a while).
Playstations weren’t my consoles growing up - I went from Nintendo systems to Xbox, but I still played them a lot at friends’ houses.
not for long
The only one I ever owned was 2. I could never afford the others when they launched and didn’t care enough once the price dropped because I had too much going on in life.
I wanted the PS5 but I think it’s seen price hikes like many other electronics, right?
Costco sometimes has sales.
Yes. Every console since the Switch has only gone up in price.
You can get a PS5 for around 300 or less on the used market locally
Beautiful memories on old systems.
Put a few drone shaped holes in those and you got yourself 2026 Dubai cityscape
Or Seattle, this one is a little on the nose:

Dubai architect: They’re on to us!
Quick, add in the worst car-centric road patterns imaginable.
None of the above, I started on the PSone.

Sega master system II

This angle really highlights that PS4 was the best design by far
From a strictly superficial, aesthetic context and judging solely by modern standards, I agree.
However, if we’re talking aesthetics and viewing it from a contemporary standard for the time of the system’s release, the PS1 is the clear winner, in my opinion.
It’s the most bland one.
there’s a slim ps2 knocking on your door right now
I was a PC gamer, but the PS3 was my first PS experience. I didn’t like the controller.

Dubai in the early 80s.
This was my first console! We had the massive text to speech thing that went on top and mispronounced all the curse words we typed in.
Also my first console, though I don’t remember a TTS module. The only thing we used the keyboard for was word scramble I think. I was very young at the time lol.
Still have no clue how my parents got one, or why. My guess is off the back of a truck.
Definitely did not have one of those. Thanks for the info!
Rich kids had ps2, but I only owned ps4.
