My gaming PC blew up for the second time in five months this past Friday. The first incident was pure operator error as I sleepily attempted to install new memory into the motherboard after six hours of driving. Except for the small fact that I installed the RAM backward and fried the board, I would consider it a rousing success. The second ruination of my hardware happened after installing a new video card and restarting. Next thing I knew the system wouldn?t boot up and I?m driving out with a mask on to my repair shop with only a sheepish ?Uh, hey? again,? as my only response to the shop owner. This is all to say that I?m more than ready for the PlayStation 5 to come in 2020, no matter the delays and complaints.
Why" The simple answer is that my console is perhaps the most reliable piece of hardware I own. Both times my PC has taken a nose dive the PlayStation 4 has been waiting in the wings to fill the gaming void left by my own ineptitude. I found myself streaming Fallout 76 from my OG PlayStation 4 this past weekend and marveled that my launch console is not only still kicking but always ready to go. While I consider myself primarily a PC gamer these days I?ve never been able to rely on a piece of desktop gaming hardware the way I can any of Sony?s gaming devices.
