Now imagine Microsoft releasing a video titled “How to install an SSD Drive to your Xbox” and it’s like “Step one: insert the SSD Drive” 😂

Microsoft should focus on releasing games to try and match Sony's.

With Psychonauts 2 and Deathloop receiving high score I wouldn’t be surprised if Microsoft ended up winning this generation, it is a bit difficult but not impossible especially with all of Sony’s recent missteps.

Spiderman 2, God Of War Ragnarok and Wolverine will shit on fucking Pschonauts.

I guess that’s true, but see, two of these games are made by Insomniac, let’s be honest, Insomniac is doing most of the heavy lifting for Sony right now.

Yeah and they make great games like the first Spiderman the side game for Miles and the new ratchet and clank game looks great and the upcoming games will be just as good. So it's not really bad thing that Insomniac are carrying playstation. Too be honest other than if Insomniac made all PlayStation games with exception to God Of War's games they are in good hands but other then GOW no one would complain.

That video is very much like a "How Its Made" episode; assuming the viewer has no prior knowledge of the subject matter.

Also, Why don't they have the user turn the console around after removing the plastic cover so they're not reaching over the entire thing to do the installation.  Less likely to drop a screw in the fan if you're not reaching over the fan to do the work.

To try and fuck up the user and force him to buy another one of those boxes..

I keep hearing people saying that it’s not difficult but it looks quite difficult to me, I’m pretty good when it comes to software but when it comes to hardware I struggle to unscrew a bolt, I feel this kind of tutorial should be for repairing the laser or replacing the fan not to add an SSD drive, why’s it so complicated?

Say what you will, I think PS5 design is BS.

Well basically you know how PS5 consoles only have like 800 gigabytes of internal storage which even if you only get games physically they’d still fill up very fast with all the updates and patches not to mention dlc, and keep in mind some PS5 consoles are digital only...

Well now you CAN upgrade the SSD drive inside to increase storage but it requires not only specific models that are compatible as well as installing a separate heatsink in the SSD slot, but in order to install one you are required to take off the shell of the PS5 and unscrew the bottom to get there in the first place, sounds complicated? Well it is, but Sony fanboys keep defending it like “dude, how dumb are you if you can’t do a simple task like this?” If I wanted to unscrew stuff and look for compatible hardware I may as well get a gaming PC at this point...

Anyway, on Xbox it’s as simple as plugging in a USB drive, just stick it in there, the downside though is you can’t just get any third party SSD (although some compatible third party models start to pop up) but yeah on Xbox it’s like those Micro SD you got for a Playstation Vita which in the long run they CAN get rare and expensive, but they’re at least user friendly.
