So for the past three years, I've pretty much been a PC gamer exclusively. I've always sold my systems to buy newer ones, so constantly losing access to my game libraries was something I was tired of. To me, PC gaming was the most sustainable and consumer friendly option since I'd always own a Windows device of some kind, right? Well, the reality of investing into PC gaming long-term dawned on me. Steam recently barred Windows 7 and 8 users from using the service and playing their games. I understand that this is for security reasons, but the idea that I have to basically commit to Windows in ..read more

I’m not necessarily trying to make this a “Are Consoles Going to Die?” discussion. I am more so asking the question that if and when cloud gaming becomes reliable and mainstream, how do you guys think Sony and Nintendo will respond? I exclude Microsoft from the equation because they obviously already have this future in mind. Sony and Nintendo get a cut of the revenue for every third party game sold for their respective platform. Despite the stigma that no one buys third party games on Nintendo hardware, the reality is that third party games often see success with expanding their audience to ..read more

Hi guys, I am deciding of buying a console, which would be of family use. It doesn't need to be to futureproof as long as it has online since I will probably end up building myself a PC and then the console will be left over for guests. The main purpose of the console is for it to stay here as an entertainment for guests, meaning it doesn't need to be a high end console - in fact, I am budget balling with quite low-mid budget (not as low as Xbox 360) and I may occasionally play things like Witcher 3 or Forza. Right now I am considering to buy Xbox One S (I know that isn't too crazy). The best ..read more

For context this is my custom spray painted PS4 Slim from 2017, it has a brand new 2TB Seagate drive installed. Honest feedback would be appreciated. No clear coat because I’m tired of working on it, might post later. submitted by /u/i-smash-cupcakes [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi guys, I played on this console last time 20 years ago when I was a kid. Now I wanted to find some informations about it and I'm stuck. All I know is that this Game Station is just another name for the Rumble Station and only published in USA. But it's strange that this one is running on batterys. It looks like it's a very rare console to me. Maybe some one of you now more about it ore maybe what it's worth today :) submitted by /u/Legitimate-Ad1788 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello guys, i'm wondering if i should buy a Wii and a 3DS XL or just a Switch. I want to play some games with my sister, but i also want to play handheld/singleplayer. I was going to buy the wii and 3ds modded and i would probably mod the switch myself if i buy one. I think switch might be better, but it would cost me around 300€ for a modded V1/V2/OLED (really depends on what i can find on the used market) and for both an already modded wii and 3ds xl it would cost around 200-250€. What do you guys think? submitted by /u/vanchio9 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My situation : I work at a juvenile rehabilitation facility. We currently have Xbox’s available for the youth. However, it is a huge burden to keep these consuls updated. It is very time consuming. We buy CDs for games and it takes forever to download the game. The facility does not have Wi-Fi. Once a week, I can plug an Xbox into an ethernet cable to do an update, but I can’t keep up with all the updates for every Xbox for every game. In a perfect world, I would love an Xbox with no Internet capability with pre-downloaded games, never requires an update. Does anything like this exist? I like ..read more
