>Smartphones ruin gaming again
Do they not realise the only reason people buy new phones every 2 years is because they cost X amount a month and come with data/calls etc?
Why would I want to spend £350-400 every 2 years on a fucking console when it would cost less than that to keep my PC going. I'm done buying consoles and I wont be touching the 4.5

PC users do it for their pc. Every six months they buy a new fucking card. He's probably not wrong unfortunately.

Except phones are heavily subsidized by rebates and deals from contracts. Plus you can usually pay off the phones in monthly payments. None of that shit is happening with consoles

This, plus phone choice is a fashion statement so people like to refresh them frequently.

And with games costing £50+ now how the fuck do they expect people to afford this?

I can literally get a console right now from Amazon or ShopTo under a pay monthly deal.
