I ain’t so convinced to be honest, but I’m always keeping an eye on their next move.

Playstation 6 will really reveal a lot about their plans.

We might have a fully retrocompatible console with a (optional) disc drive.

We might also have a digital only console with subscriptions.

Ii it’s the later, I’ll be jumping to Linux gaming.

It will definitely be something in between that incrementally moves the mark in their favor to an extent that people dont mind.

Linux truly is the only open frontier of gaming and software independence. The only reason to not be there already is mild inconvenience.

Yeah I guess so.

That’s why I’ll soon be getting a Steam Deck to sit alongside my Playstation.

It’s my first move towards Linux gaming.

I have one as well that sits docked next to my playstation, its the ideal way to game, if you dont mind dealing with a bit of challenge to get some classics running.
