here's a thought for OP
if exclusives matter so much, surely, the N64, which had literally nothing worthwhile to play besides the first party titles, should have been the best selling console of all time right?
oh wait it only did 32 million
gee its almost like it's just 1 part of the equation of why you should get a console, and not the entire fucking pie
nobody wants to spend half a grand just to play a few games

Absolutely not.
Even the fastest SSDs have a latency of ~0.010 miliseconds.
L1 cache on RDNA2 has a latency of 27 nano seconds. L2 cache of 93ns.
Even the memory of the PS5 has a latency of 140ns.
This is several orders of magnitude faster than any SSD. No way an SSD can submit data in time to render pixels.
And then remember that the registers inside shader itself, is even faster than an L1 cache.
No f****** way an SSD can fill a register in time to render a pixel. Especially if that pixel has multiple passes.
Then there is the issue of memory bandwidth. The PS5 SSD has only 5.5 GB/s. Even considering best case scenario with data being fully compressed, maybe 25Gb/s
The vram of The PS5 has 448GB/s. This is 18 times more than the SSD at it's best case scenario.
How could an SSD expect to fill all those CUs with this tiny amount of memory bandwidth....

Time will tell. I think we will have live service multiplats day one and traditional single player timed exclusives as every single one has been so far.

Who gives a shit if it comes to PC? I would rather have a complete physical copy for my consoles than a very minor graphical upgrade and idiotic mods that don't add anything to the experience.
The bigger issue is Sony needs to diversify their lineup instead of having the same tired, shallow gameplay with an over emphasis on narrative.

I just want to play (good) games. I prefer it on PC, and if the trends allow me to forego consoles, then that's great with me. I've got a big enough backlog and I don't have that FOMO that many seem to suffer with, so I'm happy to wait a bit, if that's all it takes to confine my gaming to PC.
And Sony spreading their properties around to more gamers is only good for Sony (and gaming in general) imho. There are those who would never buy a console, and now they get to enjoy some of those previously exclusive games and that builds an affinity to Sony and their brand/games, which I don't think can be a negative from Sony's perspective.
And it surely doesn't hurt any PS console gamers other than their egos about feeling *special* somehow because they've got the PS box, lol. "You're so unique! You bought a device."

Too much money being left on the table, especially with people not being able to get their hands on consoles.
I agree that there will most likely be timed exclusives, however the timing window will be shortened to about a year.

I'm 100% sure he meant "can't". Cause he stated SSD has higher latency and slower throughput then RAM, SEVERAL times in the past.

That's another valid reason why Sony may keep the games timed on PS. 100% digital revenue on PSN versus 70-90% digital revenue from Steam/EGS. And if non-console PC gamers are happy to wait and buy as some here have indicated then nothing is lost with a staggered release strategy.

I much rather use PC players to port PS3 games to PC/PS5/PS4.

Can't wait to see Sony games on Xbox, just to see OP make another thread. Oh wait, does MLB The Show counts? I bet OP loved that it was $70 on PS or $1 for a month on GamePass.

If Spider-Man gets a mod to fix the 'remastered' Peter Parker face, the PC version will become the definitive one.

That already happens and will continue. There are and will be select PS games (MLB, Bungie, etc.) on Xbox and you'll see select Xbox games (Minecraft, Call of Duty, etc.) on PS. I know console warriors are looking for the next "gotcha" but the whole war is looking sillier and sillier, frankly, with all the overlap going on.

the ssd talk... here and there again... i hope this ratched clank game is ported to PC someday and it runs perfectly fine, albeit with a bit slower load times on a 550 mb/s ssd so this discussion cease to exsist

there's a chance that the original face could be somwhere inside the files, i hope. that way we can have the original face natively without external mods. mods have their scopes, they may not be perfect, but if it is going to be possible to get the original face back within the game files, that would be fantastic

I'm starting to think that the fanboys don't actually like their exclusives, they only like them because it's only on their plastic box. In which case, get a life.

I did this with the xsx this gen. No reason to own an Xbox anymore.
Hoping Sony stops mucking about and releases PS5 games Day one on PC. We all know its coming. MS also did this slow rollout to avoid backlash before fully embracing it. It's funny that when I pointed this out back when Herman claimed porting Horizon didnt mean every game was going to get ported, people jumped down my throat and called me chicken little. I remember posting a Phil Spencer tweet when he said exactly that after porting Gears 4 or maybe it was Quantum Break.
This was always the end game.

Nope, he's always claimed the GPU is the bottleneck, and magical ssd won't make the GPU run faster

Good luck with that. A lawyer would spin this as only on their home console, opposite to say Xbox and Switch as PC is an open platform etc. I'm not saying what Sony did isn't bad. I mean they intentionally hid that MM and Horizon aren't exclusive then had a ridiculous upgrade plan for MM then after promising that Horizon upgrade would be free tried to test the waters that it isn't then when the backlash hit they backtracked. BUT it is hard to sue for stuff like this is my point, unless you are a very rich and very bored.

What I'm getting from these replies from gamers that are "OK" with it is that the game won't be available for the PC after a number of years so no need to stress over it. The only logical explanation for that type of comment is that the game will somehow lose it's "luster" so that they no longer care about it. The same people are saying that if it came out day-and-date that they would leave the PS ecosystem thereby placing major emphasis on time being a factor instead of the actual game itself. If time wasn't a factor then they would be pissed regardless of whether the game comes out day-and-date or 3yrs from now.

Those games were only on Playstation.
Now they aren't only on Playstation.
There you go Sony, there is your legal defense.

PC is a good place to spend thousands of dollars to years old Sony games that might still even have issues on the PC.
Personally, I'm happy with my PS5 where I know I'll get the great Sony exclusives day 1 and can just put a disc in and play the game on my huge TV while sitting on my couch.

I'm not sure I understand your question. What does 16G of RAM have to do with the GPU performance? What I'm saying is that the SSD can push data into GPU texture memory faster than the GPU can process the pixels thereby the SSD is actually not a good match for that console.
