Ok I have Both consols and I like each but here are some of my likes and dislikes.

1.Ps5 is ugly as hell -
2.The controller is excellent verry comfortable I prefer it to the X-box controller +
3.No web browser -
4.Runs and performs great +
5.Dashboard is not my favorite but it's not bad I think im just use to X-box to be fair =
6.I like being able to play Ps4 games off external hard-drive +
7.You can add storage to hard drive +
8.The controller battery life is awful -
9.games are great but not many killer aps for either system =


1.X-box Series x is a very confusing name it was a bad choice -
2.Controller is fine but you can also upgrade to a pro controller it's excellent and has a way longer life between charges than the Ps5 +
3.Has a web browser this alone is a must have imo. +
4.Won't play games from external hard drive must move them to internal first -
5.You can add storage to hard drive +
6.Runs and performs great +
7.Looks pleasing to the eyes +
8.Game pass is cool +
9.Games are great but not many killer aps yet for either system =
10.I prefer the dashboard on X-box imo +

So either way both systems are good imo. I really like the ps5 over the Ps4 I play it more than I ever played the ps4.And I also love my series X but get the pro controller with it.It's the way to go especially if you play alot of shooters.

I did own one ps5 game for almost a year before I got my ps5 but usually I don't collect for a system I don't have.

Definitely mediocre games are better imo. Because you can at least finish a mediocre game even if it's just because you devoted you time and now you just want to beat it. I feel a bad game could be played for hours just to find out it's broken and can't be finished.

I highly recommend Alen Wake it has a great atmosphere and a compelling story it plays like chapters from a book being narrated as you play full of mystery and suspense. Not full of cheap jump scares imo. A excellent choice for Halloween.

Classic Video Games / Re: How Many Of You Forum Attenders and Viewers Still Play Retro Video Games

I play a lot of retro games mostly nes,snes,genesis,ps1. currently Im playing lunar but I don’t play on original platforms I have a Xbox S that has thousands of games downloaded to it. It’s so much easier than   dealing with hooking up a reto console every time I want to play something different.

General / Re: Which games have you become "priced out" of ever owning at this point?

« on: September 17, 2022, 08:43:04 pm »

So many games are way over my comfort level, but it varies from game to game. The most I like to pay for average retro games is 40 to 60 dollars then more desirable games I've been spending 100 to 200 dollars. I have gone higher for games I feel are rare and hard to find but I try to space my high dollar purchases out a little. The most I ever spent on a single game was 800 I think but I have bought whole collections or lots, off friends for as much as 3000 I always get better deals that way. But games like Keio Flying Squadron, Magical Chace, Stadium Events, Aero fighters and many more are realistically out of my price range.
