Actually, the dumbest purchase is the PS4, as it has no games.

Yes, all the no software that exists. I guess you can write your own. Seems like a bad move on Sony's part, dunno why they repeated the PS3s mistake here.

Why do you buy so much poo poo you don't even know you want? Didn't this same thing happen with PSVR?

I sold my psvr because it was underwhelming garbage like all VR. I bought it because I was impressed by a London Heist mall demo and didn't realize that 5 minute demo would be the typical length of VR shovelware.

I buy things that I'm interested in because I can and want to. Goons continue to be baffled by the concept of full time employment I see.

Despite that I'm waffling on the X for reasons already posted. And I probably shouldn't buy it, you're all right. That's why I'm talking about maybe not buying it on the thread dedicated to discussing it.

One of the things holding me back is that there's no RDR2 on PC, which is one if my fav franchisees, and that living room PC gaming is more cumbersome and bug filled than I was hoping at this stage.

I could play RDR on PS4, but I'm kinda spoiled by 4k gaming at this point, and would prefer to do it on the X if it actually does get the performance boosts it should.

And of course as I mentioned before I've always had a soft spot for Xbox. I want them to succeed, and I want to try the X. If it sucks I can always sell it.

VideoGames posted:

I think it is because when the Xbone was revealed it was an utter joke of a console and people had so much to clown on that those people who didn't care got angry at all the teasing and demanded a second thread. This then further exacerbated issues and came across as the xbone fans not being able to handle criticism and caused people to try and clown even more.

Then it turned out that very few people bought one and as such the conversation kind of dries up because no one really has anything to talk about.

There's no rule about not making fun of consoles. You are absolutely free to do it in the ps4 and switch threads. It's just back in 2013 there was so much to rib about the original xbone. Four years down the line it's pretty much an afterthought like the ouya.

The Bonx might change that and be good and then there will be more posters again but sadly the Bone did it to itself.

Cool. Now justify accusing me of being Ben Kuchera several times. That hurt, man. That really hurt.

Also, you have Smart Punctuation turned on on your iPhone. That's why your quotes look like that. It does something with curved and straight quotation marks that isn't quite kosher with markup language.

The Bonx needs a first half of first party software that qualifies all the pixel (all of them) and framerates to make people think they are staring at their ugly copy on both PS4 and on PS4Pro, and a second half that is "oh, yes, that's why I bought an Xbox, because there are good games like this Platinum shooter right here".

That's a difficult thing to pull off, Microsoft is no Nintendo, and they butchered their own studios after trying to transform them into Supercell.

Animals should be allowed to fight but not forced.

Make it like golf where the animals just roam in a reasonably large area and if a fight happens a crowd of gamblers run over and start wagering.
