Okay I will.
PC isn’t a part of the console war and therefore can’t “win.”
Happy? I told it.

Not sure why people are acting surprised about this. The generations usually have been between 5-7 years. It will already have been five years this upcoming November. So 2027 sounds about right.

PC will never “win” a console war because it lacks the plug and play convenience of consoles.

I was watching that during the event and I immediately brought up Super Mario 64. Guess I wasn’t the only one to think that.
- Comment on Gaming has a polarization problem 3 days ago:
Of course there’s middle ground. You just don’t see it much with AAA games because, as you mentioned, it’s all or nothing with those.
But don’t forget about indies. They comfortably fit in this middle ground because they’re not afraid to take risks.

I’m trying to get back into it for exercise reasons, but I’m keeping away from the gross and greedy take on Dynamax stuff. Feels better to ignore those.

While I personally wasn’t a fan of Dauntless, I respected it and I’m sad to see it go. I’m a huge Monster Hunter fan but understand the importance of competition and how it benefits gamers.

Just a tad miffed that I had to out in my own leg work to figure out this coming out to all major platforms. Not just Steam.

Well, it really hasn’t given me much reason to upgrade from my PS4 Pro. So…Yeah…
PS3 backwards compatibility would’ve sold me though.

I’m hoping that one day Steam will have apps for home consoles so I can play Steam games on my Xbox whatever without hassle. That would be cool.
- Comment on Nintendo discontinuing Gold Points on the Switch eShop, ahead of Switch 2 release 2 weeks ago:
I play my Switch docked 99.9% of the time. One thing holding me back with Steam Deck is I keep hearing about complications with trying to play it docked on TV.

- Comment on Xbox Sales Hit Rock Bottom After Historic 2024 Decline 3 weeks ago:
This whole generation has been messed up from the word go. Scalpers ruined my chances of getting a PS5 (and I went with Xbox for the very first time since they had a payment program) and I’m still very sore about that. Anyone remember “Oh Deer”?
Nintendo doing whatever the fuck they want, making the Switch last the Wii U’s latter-half of a generation and then it’s own generation. The Switch 2 coming in so late to this generation that you have to wonder if we can even call them Nintendo/PlayStation/Xbox generations anymore and instead it’s PlayStation/Xbox with Nintendo it’s own category of generations now.
Xbox making a high-end console with a mid console and forcing the same games to be released for both. Sounds extremely consumer friendly, but made things a headache for developers who probably felt held back by it.
Sony…where do I begin. I guess my main gripe with them is that they’re still giving the middle finger to PS3 backwards compatibility on PS5. (Yes I know about the Cell and blah blah blah. Don’t care. Make it happen, get my money. Capice?) The PS5 Pro might’ve been where I finally hopped on, but eh. My PS4 Pro is still going strong and they don’t have anything that entices me to make the leap after I invested in Xbox Series X.
And so many games being cross-gen this time around. Holly hell. I understand why that is, but I feel like this is the most blah generation ever. There have been some awesome games for sure, but overall it felt not very exciting.
And Microsoft not really seeming to care about all this because they feel they’re on a different plane of existence now and consoles are trivial to them since your toaster can now play Xbox games.
So instead of having a 3-way drumline competition, they’re just parading off in different random directions through town.
- Comment on Two big Final Fantasy remakes are reportedly still in ‘active development’ 3 weeks ago:
I wish the Final Fantasy III 3D remake would be ported to consoles. I loved it on DS and always wanted to play it on a big screen. It came to phones, PSP, PC, and the Ouya of all things. So why the hell can’t I just play it on my Xbox? Sheesh.
(I actually considered getting an Ouya once just so I could play FF3 3D remake. Glad I didn’t.)
- Comment on Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - Announce Trailer 3 weeks ago:
Is the closed network/beta testing only going to be for PlayStation? I want to do it for Xbox if available, but not seeing anything on it.
- Comment on Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - Announce Trailer 3 weeks ago:
Fuck yes! DO WANT.
All-Stars Racing was my favorite and I also really loved Transformed. Couldn’t get into Team Racing though. This feels like a return to the previous two games while also being new.
More references to the Sonic R soundtrack (like they’ve been doing) and I’ll melt with ecstasy.
- Comment on Monster Hunter: World sold over a million copies just in the last 3 months, despite being 7 years old 3 weeks ago:
Worlds and Wilds feel very very different from each other. Playing the years-older game to judge the new one doesn’t make sense.
Instead, I’d recommend trying out the beta. The last session will be from Feb 13 - Feb 16.
- Comment on Monster Hunter: World sold over a million copies just in the last 3 months, despite being 7 years old 3 weeks ago:
I played the game to death on PS4 up until MH Rise came out on Switch. I didn’t get a PS5 but do have an XBox Series X.
Monster Hunter Wilds has palico costume bonuses if you have save files for World and Iceborne. Buuut, I can’t transfer my save files between PS4 and XBox.
I just recently purchased the World/Iceborne for Xbox on sale for like 20 bucks. Now, you might say to me that it’s silly for me to re-buy the game just for some extra cosmetics. And yeah, you’d be right. But you have to play through certain parts of World and Iceborne to be eligible for the bonuses. Which means I started a new save file and am going to play through it.
I’ve fallen in love with MH World all over again.
FOMO may have me by the balls, but at least I’m having fun with it.

- Comment on GTA VI Might Inspire Other AAA Developers to Price Their Games at $100 1 month ago:
I wonder… Will Grand Theft Auto VI be the next “AAAA” game? Or have we ditched that term now since the utter failure of the first game that dared wear that title?
- Comment on GTA VI Might Inspire Other AAA Developers to Price Their Games at $100 1 month ago:
I decided to go all out with Monster Hunter Wilds and got the ultimate digital deluxe or whatever. Does it smart? Yes. But the amount of hours I’ve put into World and Rise would make you blush and yell at me to go touch grass. It’s one of the few things I absolutely will not play Patient Gamer with.
