No no no......I don't need higher hardware to run AI slop. Because I won't play AI slop.

I guess my journey into console video games started with the NES my parents bought me in 1986, and ends with the PS5.

Because I'm not going to PAY for AI. I'm certainly not going to pay for an extravagant pricey console which promotes AI, while offering nothing of value in return for having paid those prices.

"Here, I'll sell you this dog turd in a baggie, but it'll cost you a LOT of money!

Thats about how I feel about the PS6 AI gen.

Oh. Hello steam. I see you have a catalog dating back to the mid 2000s. Whats this? You currently have a sale with 8000 titles on sale for up to 95% off?

........welp. Guess I'm a PC gamer now.
