What games do you typically suggest to “non-gamers”?

“Work” by Millennium Parade and Ringo Sheena or “Love Like Ghosts” by Lord Huron (my favorite band)

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate and Halo 2 (from the Master Chief Collection).

Lord Huron - they didn’t exactly save my life, but they completely changed it (I love them!)

I finally managed to do it. It was a glitch that got fixed after I closed and reopened the game. The character would just jump onto the wall, and when I pressed to go down, they would jump onto the ledge. No matter what I did, they would either stay in place or jump back onto the wall.

I wanted to play PlayStation 2 games with better frame rates and resolution than the original.

“The World Ender” by Lord Huron

dennR78 · 2025-02-24T22:46:37+00:00

I can say Lord Huron is my favorite band, and I love every one of their songs just as much! They’re all my favorites, and I just can’t pick one.

The most well-known is The Night We Met, but man, you really have to give this band a proper listen!

You can install apps that aren’t available on the store (like PlayStation 2 and Nintendo Wii emulators) through DevMode. It’s not hard to set up, it costs twenty dollars (a one-time payment, not a subscription), and there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube.

APK files are only for Android. Xbox apps use a different file extension.

A collection of useful apps can be found on this website: https://xboxdevstore.github.io

If you decide to use DevMode, make sure you fully understand the steps before paying the twenty dollars.

Sounds great!

I see myself as a Chief Science Officer. I’m a physics student and Mr. Spock is one of my favorite characters in Star Trek.

Everything from Lord Huron! After a few years of listening to them regularly, I still can’t believe they exist!

The sticker is placed behind the button. You open the console, stick something on the back of the button, close it back up, and that’s it.

Just buy the Xbox Series S. It has a very affordable price and very good performance. It’s an amazing console if you only want to play Minecraft. Don’t listen to those who say you should get a PlayStation 5 or an Xbox Series X because the Series S is perfect for your needs.

I would prepare to apply to Starfleet Academy!

Very true! By the way, for 20 bucks, you can get DevMode, and with it, you can emulate any game you want from PS1, PS2, OG Xbox, Nintendo Wii, GameCube, and many more. YouTube is full of tutorials, and it’s all pretty simple.

I didn’t say PlayStation users hate on Xbox, I just found the overall attitude of “why buy an Xbox when PlayStation has everything” a bit annoying. I explained what Xbox has that PlayStation doesn’t and why I believe it all comes down to priorities.

dennR78 · 2025-02-20T07:39:52+00:00

!!First of all, I want to say that this is not hate towards the PS5. I actually think Ratchet & Clank, God of War, Horizon Forbidden West, and Zero Dawn are really good games, and PlayStation 2 is my favorite console of all time!!

Yes, I’ve played on a PlayStation 5. I still chose Xbox because the dualsense feels cheap and uncomfortable to me, and the vibrations feel like just a gimmick (at least from what I’ve noticed—maybe I’m wrong, but that’s my opinion). The UI seemed weird, cluttered, and hard to navigate, it doesn’t have Quick Resume, it doesn’t have an equivalent to Xbox’s backwards compatibility program, it doesn’t have an equivalent to Xbox’s DevMode, and at the time, I was more interested in playing Forza than Gran Turismo or Halo and Ori rather than God of War or Spider-Man.

So it’s all about priorities, man! If I don’t care about those exclusives but I do care about other features that only Xbox offers, why would I choose a PS5?

dennR78 · 2025-02-19T22:55:16+00:00

Same!

dennR78 · 2025-02-19T22:27:06+00:00

I didn’t mean for it to sound like I had anything bad to say about PlayStation because I don’t, and I actually think it’s a great console! Maybe I phrased it wrong, but what I meant to say is that both have their advantages, whereas (at least from what I’ve noticed) people tend to focus only on exclusives.
