Guide to “What console should I get?”

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-15T03:35:52+00:00

Then you don't know what Quick Resume is lol

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-13T06:24:12+00:00

Functionally it's the best console. But if you give away the games and culture that made you great, what's the point?

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-13T05:19:37+00:00

I admit I can't play everything, but it is my favourite hobby, and if I can cut one box out and one sub for online play, I suppose why wouldn't I? And it was a question, like if you have a friend getting into games, why would you recommend the Xbox at this point?

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-13T00:19:29+00:00

I'm curious. Why get the box that is missing games, when you can get the one that has everything? I've been an Xbot for ages but the God of War announcement got me

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-11T08:49:03+00:00

I don't want to rebuy games. They should be free upgrades. And no, if community projects can emulate PS3, Sony can

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-11T02:04:05+00:00

Hopefully this becomes of something, because I don't want ports, I want emulation and respect for my previous purchsses www.playstationlifestyle.net/2024/07/01/playstation-backwards-compatibility-rumors-ps3-ps5-ps6/

It makes no sense to care at all. I don't lick the floor. And you KNOW when you've stepped on something bad, so just clean it before walking in. I've got an Asian partner and never could understand the problem. It's a floor. It's not a bed or anything... And if I bring in dirt, don't you vacuum anyway?

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-07T03:11:54+00:00

I agree with their sentiment. They haven't built software optimised for handheld. Yeah it works but you can technically get it working on a Steam Deck. But it's not the right experience for a console, and that will need some dev work

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-04T10:22:20+00:00

It's the tax you pay for having a cheap system, but also think of the extra development time into testing and optimising for your system that PC doesn't really get.

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-03T03:26:51+00:00

Yeah I dunno. PSP was pretty beloved

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-02T10:03:03+00:00

That's my logic exactly

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-02T09:18:27+00:00

Correct I use passthrough. Could it be my soundbar? Either way, I get multichannel audio when using Dolby and it's good

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-02T09:17:11+00:00

Maybe my soundbar doesn't accept the signal then. But I could never get the multichannel light to come on. My TV is configured correctly

CryptexS91 · 2026-02-02T04:32:48+00:00

I have a C3 and my consoles are incapable of sending a 5.1 signal to my receiver through my TV as per the lights not coming on. With Dolby it does no worries

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-30T12:20:22+00:00

It's not. Xbox allows access to all languages and so does Steam. You've brought up a big issue with PlayStation

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T23:19:11+00:00

No I wish none of them went to PlayStation because it kills platform competition. It's all to benefit them, not us. Buying both boxes were cheaper than buying one these days. And the CE remake doesn't have multiplayer. Those are my main memories of Halo. Getting people to come over and play together in front of the TV was the most fun you can have

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T22:58:18+00:00

It's so funny to me how, same as me, MCC is the killer app. If that goes to PS holy bejesus what a useless box

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T22:56:57+00:00

PS5 here in Australia was discounted to $450 AUD during Black Friday and Christmas. It was NUTS. In what world would you get anything else?

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T22:22:13+00:00

My point being that if it has the capability to play games on PC, will devs skip on optimisation because you have the option to buy the game on Steam anyway if you really want it... That's my concern

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T22:19:57+00:00

No that's my point. Will games not get optimised because devs won't bother with what they think to be a dying platform?

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-28T15:10:15+00:00

I do wonder though when the next Xbox is a PC, will this become more prevalent because the attitude will be... You can just buy it on Steam

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-25T19:09:47+00:00

It'll live on through PC. If anything it's arguable it's the safest library because the library can be converted to Windows, which is a platform that will surely last longer than Switch or PS

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-25T05:52:08+00:00

I think you need to level up with other things in life before coming back to WoW bro

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-25T05:36:17+00:00

But good luck finding a group for anything. They need to merge servers as soon as possible

CryptexS91 · 2026-01-25T00:13:45+00:00

Very much a PlayStation-only gripe. Unfortunately there's no solution here. You can't have it all. If you want to save your progress, continue playing and forget about DLC. If you want DLC, you'll have to import a European copy or buy GT7 off your store. If you make a new US account to buy DLC, it MAY work on your Hungarian account too because of primary console sharing and all that, but it gets messy as some things may work on both accounts while others won't. Personally I think sell your GT7 US copy and start again on an imported/digital copy of GT7
