I fucking hate that there's a PS4-Pro

Breaking the sacred trust that at the very least, you should only have to buy an updated console every half-decade

    well, to be fair it's mostly the product of Sony kowtowing to fan demand after Microsoft announced that they were updating the Xbox One with Project Scorpio

    they aren't marketing it as a necessity, if you still have the original model you aren't missing out on anything except for more chunky visuals (which, let's face it, isn't a big f'n deal -- we're starting to hit a bit of a realism ceiling where you'd only be able to really tell if it were a Pro if you had a 4K television and eyes like magnifying glasses)

    if you don't have a 4K television I guarantee you won't be able to tell the difference between the two systems

    (and even if you do have a 4K TV all the games and applications will work for the foreseeable future, it's fine)

    it's like how Apple has multiple iPad models

    just because there's an iPad Pro doesn't mean the iPad Air is obsolete-- it might not be as powerful, but there's only a few things the more expensive one can do that the base model can't

    You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

    Then you won't mind donating all your consoles to the Crown.

    So all I have to do to get your consoles is make your sister royalty?

    That last one makes no sense.

    I mean, Knuckles has green socks.

    Green frigging socks.

    Undertale and Steven Universe are such forces of positivity and good that I'm honestly at a loss for how anyone could dislike them
