    For a long time, I wanted to get a PS5 or “the new xbox”, whatever the heck it was named. I was in a big box store and saw what I thought was one of the new ones when they were still hard to find. But, I had no cell signal in the store, so I couldn’t look up info on it. I couldn’t verify if it was the new one, or the old one, since their stupid naming scheme was so arbitrary and hard to remember if you weren’t already in their ecosystem. I didn’t buy it, and later found the one I saw was the newest one. I ended up eventually finding and buying a PS5. I doubt I am the only one, but even if so, they did not make a sale to one person because of their stupid naming scheme. With Playstation system naming, there is no confusion.

      I didn’t even know they released a new console for about a year because I thought everyone was talking about the same thing.

    I find it surprising that the PS5 is beating the PS4 in popularity, it honestly feels like a flop in comparison from how I remember the PS4 being at this point of time.

    Is there a way to use the Xbox controller with the PS5? Asking for a person who is fed up with Xbox’s idiocy but loves their controller.
