Do you think I wanted the power to go out? What exactly did you want me to do to prevent this, Sony?

Was it really necessary to use that tone of beep with me?

 

[RoadHazard]

Just don't lose power when your PS5 is turned on next time.

 

[Humdinger]

I hate when my console lectures me.

 

[Kacho]

The sticker on your 3DS case offends me

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Arrogant Sony….

[alienator]

How did u get those circled coffee mug stains on top of your tv? do u even respect your electronics at all?




(relax im just messin around!)

 

[Bert Big Balls]

Ok Sooner

 

[envyzeal]

You should try this, it may solve the biggest issue you're having

 

[Plague Doctor]

How fucking dare you not have a back up generator just for your PS5.

Are you even a real fan?

I know atleast 6 Xbox bro's that have a dedicated wind turbine facing in the direction of phil spencer's office making sure that all 5 of their series X's are on 24/7.

OP's reaction:

Phew. I was about to tell you to clean your dirty ass screen. Fuck that guy indeed.

 

[Sooner]

Ok, not my picture guys. Just the first one Google gave me.

Too late. It's GAF lore now. You're a filthy animal with stickers on your game cases.

How can this be happening??

At least you didn't found him at the start:

 

[Punished Miku]

 

[Mephisto40]

Ring your power company and tell them they broke your PS5

 

[Rbk_3]

Only solution is to get one of these if you want Sony to stop lecturing you

 

[Fbh]

Not to mention it angrily beeps at you lol.
At least the whole "rebuilding database" or whatever it does is pretty fast on Ps5 compared to the Ps4.

 

[Alebrije]

Another case of No break orphan syndrone.

 

[Vyse]

Same. I have a wife for that.

I get that all the time....mostly when power hasn't gone out. Xbox never does that.

 

[Shtof]

Arrogant Sony….

...is back!

How do you want them to say it?

“Dear wuss,

If you would be so kind as to next time switch things off in the correct order, we would be eternally grateful. I mean, we wouldn’t want you to lose your precious data, right”

 

[Bieren]

You don't have an industrial generator just for you PS5? Pleb.

 

[hemo memo]

There is a Sony console for people who don't want a strong tone, it's called PS4.

 

[ReBurn]

Until it inevitably stops working in the middle of the night and starts screaming like a banshee for attention.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

That isn't the message I get on my PS5 when my power goes out. Mine doesn't mention the AC cord at all.

I think the OP actually yanked the AC cord out while the power was on. The condescension is justified.

 

[noob smokes]

Stfu & shut off

 

[DryvBy]

The Wii used to go "hey, why don't you go outside?". Shut up, Nintendo. Just shut your mouth. I will go outside when it's night like normal vampires.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

It annoys the piss out of me too.

 

[Zacfoldor]

I also suggest a sinewave UPS.

Switch's battery acts as a UPS built in so it is immune to this.

I put all my gaming equipment on UPS but especially if you are a PC gamer.

Modern consoles have HDD/SSDs and advanced Operating Systems, that read and write do these units.
Not powering down a modern console properly can result in data loss, or damaging the OS, the game installation, save files, or programs.
The console can't know why the power went out. So it will just say some generic stuff warning about doing a proper power down.
If you have issues with the power supply at your house, you can get an UPS. This can protect your console or PC.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Man. If this is personally offensive to you, you are in for a rough ride when life decides it’s your turn to really take it up the ass, offensively.

 

[El Muerto]

If the Xbox can power on after a losing power without losing its shit, the the PS5 should be able to. You would think they would of fixed this by now. PS4 had this issue too.

Your PS5 is begging you to not be a retard.

 

[Kvally]

Your PS5 is begging you to not be a retard.

That escalated quickly.

 

[Loomy]

I don't know why you find something that benign offensive. But your playstation has no idea, nor does it care, why your system was disconnected from the wall before you shut it down. Maybe your power went out, maybe you tripped and unplugged it, maybe your cat chewed it, maybe you unplugged the wrong thing.

 

[DAHGAMING]

I bet your 1 of them that dosnt shut a computer down properly either, just fuck it off at the switch. When AI starts going all Skynet on us your 1 of the first to go mate.

I'd rather buy multiple consoles for that specific reason.

 

[SteadyEvo]

Xbox has no issues with power outages. Just boots back up. Sometimes with game in quick resume. Say what you want about how the brand is managed, the Series X is well built.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

My iPhone telling me my music is too loud is far worse than this. You have it good, OP.

I don't think the XSX is immune to data corruption if power is lost right when a save file is being written or such. That's what this warning is about, 99.9% of the time nothing actually happens.

Get an EPS as a backup power supply. Sorted.

 

[mopspear]

I feel like I'm being yelled at by a teacher when I don't turn it off right but actually either my power went out or it was left on in standby and then I unhook the PS5 to move it to another room.
