I still don't know if you're supposed to get the Xbox S or the X or the Series X or the Xbox Sweaty Sex or the fucking whatever. Death to the games industry.

the series s is cheap and portable, I knew someone who had one for that reason

As if it wasn't already the worst current gen console lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Gamepass is pretty legit ngl. Although I’m still on an original Xbox one

Worst console of the worst generation 💀

Colecovision/Atari 2600 was worse.

Vectrex was kinda neat tho

This and switch 2 announcement excellent was to increase steam deck popularity

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Don't forget that SteamOS is now coming to other handheld gaming PCs, too.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oooooh I hadnt heard that.

Also thought top tier steam deck was closer to $1000 not $650.

Am wondering how long games will take to go on 50% or more off once they are starting at $80 :(

Cheapest option is to get a refurb deck and put in a bigger SSD yourself

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago

What's that, Microsoft? I can't hear you over my jambox 360

monke-return come join us gamers that only play retro and indie.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

cool, i don't play xbox

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm guessing the software price increase will effect PC games, too. Granted, MS and all it's owned studios are on BDS - it'll probably just mean all big releases launch at $80-90

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Just pirate at this point. I only buy games from studios I actually like such as Larian or Owlcat.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I only buy indies now - shit, I can barely run the new AAAs
