IM BACK and it is 2018!!
In todays world of gaming there is such a high demand for performance and graphics. Im 42 and played since the Atari 2600. owned all of the major consoles through their generations. When I think of games I played in the past, brings back great memories; Kaboom, Mario, splinter cell, Techmo Bowl, RES Evils 1-3. to barley scratch the surface of old titles.
I remember when HALO hit. What an exciting time. Then Gears of War hit. Remember the first time we experienced those two franchises? STAY with me, there is a point....
To keep this reply short, we dont need to list ALL of the games, but the two mentioned above is to remind you of the feeling WE gamers felt at that moment. Now, here is where I got perturbed with your video and opinion. You bash xbox with their lack of titles, backwards compat, performance, state that (and I quote) anyone who says graphics dont matter is a liar. With that comment you just showed your age. I would take an average looking game with great mechanics, mapping, movement ect. over amazing crisp graphics with poor mechanics (they do exist today) any day of the week.
To conclude this reply, I agree that xbox over the years has had issues through their growth. Playstation has had less issues (even with the HACK) over the years in comparison. The PS4 Pro feels and looks great. My Xbox One X feels great. I prefer Xbox dashboard, store, and Party chat over PS4. Streaming from console? I prefer PS4 over xbox option. Xbox you have a few steps. Playstation you hit one button and ready to go.
We could go back and forth with other examples stated above, but the point is that it's ALL preference - NOT performance. And that is where we are at as of today in the gaming industry. The question is no longer what performs better. It's what someone prefers.
My opinion about owning both consoles? I say own them both with 4k monitor if you can afford it. Why? well, why NOT!? We are gamers. It is an expensive hobby, but probably the most enjoyable.
Let's not turn Sony vs. Microsoft into Democrate vs. Republican. Lets remember why we game and how it makes us feel. And for the over 40 club, always remember the good old days and not get wrapped up in the politics.
Fyi just so you know: im not some fat 40 yr old virgin in my moms basement. Im a fulltime firefighter 21 yrs, married, 3 kids, and everything else. I tell you this to show you where and what type of person this opinion comes from.
Let's hope that 2018 is full of great games and not delays.
Happy gaming my dudes!
