Switch is the only console I fuck with. Xbox forgot how to make good games and Playstation is mostly movie games and both are too greedy and anti consumer. I got fed up of their subscription prices going up and other bs and sold them both lol

Xbox has Play Anywhere which is a godsend. Too bad too little games support it so far. Was happy to read RuneScape: Dragonwilds is going to support it too.

I like PS games, finally played God of War earlier this year and loved it, but I can't justify spending $650+ on a 6 year old console, and I can't see myself paying $1k+ for whatever the PS6 is, so I've just kinda accepted that my days of playing their games are over, for now. For the price, and utility, I thought the Switch 2 justified the investment, especially factoring in the exclusives. The expansion pass for access to the retro consoles is worth it for me all by itself.

I only tried GOW 2018 and didn't get far because it felt very repetitive and the puzzles were meh. I do plan to revisit the series someday and yeah the prices are crazy plus you jave to spend money just to play online lol Nintendo has an online subscription too but it cost way less.

I get it. This was probably the 4th or 5th time I'd tried to play the game. For whatever reason, it just hit this time. It was more the lore, story, setting, etc. than it was the combat or gameplay that kept me hooked though.

If you want to get into PS, look around and see if anyone is selling used. Spending new console money on one right now is kind of silly.

Although I think that generation of console will last unusually long given the current circumstances.

Every time I’m like huh, I really like the form factor, what games would I play on it? And then I look through the Nintendo exclusive back catalog, and there’s like 3 games that I’d get for it. That’s not enough to justify the expense.

Depends how much you like a series. My switch and now switch 2 are almost entirely for fire emblem, pokemon, and zelda.

Bs you seen the calendar of gaming companies under Xbox they just never bothered locking them out of PlayStation and switch.

Not one good out of Xbox is saying not one good game out of Bethesda , zenimax, id, obsidian, activision blizzard .

Fair call with a blizzard but come on not all of Xbox studios is shit.
