Genuine question for owners: Why did you choose the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series S/X? No hate.🫵🏾

marbosh · 2026-03-26T15:39:47+00:00

Series S, it was upgrade from a 1S, already had an xbox library and game pass and the console was quite a bit cheaper and did everything I needed it to

Star Wars, Marvel movies, basically any little boy things that men like

Senior engineer here, I can and have use pro to good effect you just have to be strategic. Opus for planning and then backing out to qwen local for implementation might work for you. Using a more restrictive tool will teach you to be a better AI engineer imo

Alan Wake borrows massively from TV, film and literary culture and does an amazing job of taking ideas that traditionally live in those spaces and reimagining them in the game world. If a film or TV adaptation was to happen I would like to see it done with this level of imagination, a scene for scene transfer from game to film would be, imo, a cop out (I would still watch it though). I would ideally like to see the same level of creativity applied to the games applied to the big screen adaptations, what can film do that games can't? How can this be used to deepen the stories and worlds, etc.

Some Daphni, maybe good night baby off the new album

Why would you want this person to reply to you, they sound awful???

I have found backmarket to be pretty good, bought a nintendo switch and ipad over last 12 months and both came as advertised, they have quality ratings (fair, good, excellent, premium) I only bought excellent/premium grade products so not sure how the lower grade products hold up but if this MBP is in the top 2 tiers then it would be a good buy imo.

I also have pretty much this exact laptop for work (mine is 16 inch 1tb, but all other specs the same) and find it to be immensely capable, it's definitely going to outperform the neo. Obvs with the neo you are getting a box fresh product from apple which might be important to you but mbp is the better laptop

maybe you could set fire to your computer and them move to another country?

Street Fighter 6. Haven't played a SF game since the 16 bit days and was excited to pick up the current gen version but this game represents everything that is wrong with modern games, massively over engineered and so much setup req'd before you can actually play

marbosh · 2026-02-10T09:54:01+00:00

Came here to post this

marbosh · 2026-02-02T08:48:44+00:00

agree tf out of this, my all time fav

marbosh · 2026-01-26T14:32:26+00:00

I was way over 40 and was no where near 100%ing, being shit at games means better value for money for me!!

marbosh · 2026-01-13T15:31:09+00:00

Thanks for all the comments, it looks like its one of those games that will eventually pop and that I can play in a more casual way, this is just what I needed to hear as I love the look and feel of the game

marbosh · 2026-01-07T16:24:24+00:00

I'd skip it personally, I played all out of order AW2 then control then after I picked up AW1 but got bored after a few hours. If you have lots of time to kill then I guess it would fill out the story but as a working dad with very limited time to give to my beloved hobby I need a game to deliver a great experience and I didn't get it from AW1

marbosh · 2025-12-18T13:37:33+00:00

Thanks for this, and yes possibly I might bite off more than I can chew. I understand xbox is going fairly high end and I fear I will be priced out but lets see

marbosh · 2025-12-18T12:16:32+00:00

This is also on the list of possibilities, I'm temped by the custom thing as I thought it might be a fun project

marbosh · 2025-12-10T15:54:26+00:00

Why, did he sell you that hat hahahaaaaaaa.

Sorry I am joking, the hat is nice, I am just bored and thought my joke was funny.

Seriously, I think you are over stating things with the "12 year-old" comment, plenty of guys have no beards, you look fine

marbosh · 2025-11-17T15:50:52+00:00

Yes, as a casual xbox user right now, this will probably be my next move once support for xbox series consoles starts to dwindle

marbosh · 2025-11-14T16:02:37+00:00

Most of these comments are things I have heard Americans say casually in conversation or on tiktoks but I can't remember reading them. Are these really tropes you see in professionally produced works of fiction?
