Look man, you are conflating arguments. Nobody said a 30 fps game can't be fun. What is being said is higher fps offer tighter controls. Both things can be true. 30 fps can be fun and higher fps improves controls. It isn't that hard to follow. Edit And where I agree with Handy, given option A versus option B, if option B has better/tighter controls... it makes no logic sense to go with option A, unless someone travels a lot or simply is that tied to brand. The irony of course being, Nintendo fans are pushing against fps being important, while Nintendo themselves largely target 60 fps when possible. There is a reason Nintendo pushes 60 fps when possible and is updating games and offering a S2 boost mode for S1 games. It isn't because fps don't matter. |
I see where you and JackHandy are coming from. I think in the end it's simply about what you value more. Personally, if there is a portable/hybrid version of the PS6 (as rumors suggest) I will jump back into Playstation, after having skipped the PS5 so far (I do own a PS4 and a PS3). For me, the convenience of playing on a hybrid definitely outweighs the advantages of better graphics, even though I do like 60fps games a lot. I simply don't want to go back to pure home consoles anymore. With one exception: I also own an Xbox Series S and I quite like that console because it was a good deal when I bought it and there was a handful of games I wanted to play on it. But if I had the choice of buying a, say, 400€ stationary Xbox or a 400€ hybrid Xbox console, I would definitely go for the hybrid - even though that would be a lot less powerful, of course.
My favorite Sony system was the PSP, by the way. Totally adored that handheld.
