Just wondering, due lack of new big Game coming(I know Xbox having HellBlade 2 coming out this month) and Sony isnt bring big Game until next year after April (it been on Game news)

of course there is rumors going round that Sony want PS 5 PRO but pointless releasing them due 2 things that going cost high price (much higher than ps 5 price) and lack of games that suppose built for PS 5 PRO!

Are you Happy with your Xbox Series S or X or PS 5 or do you prefer playing old Game console?
What game do you play?
 
The PC-Engine is my go-to console, closely followed by original Xbox for a stint of Burnout Takedown. Then I have my trusty jail-broken PSP for gaming on the move.

Happy with the above and anything else such as the SNES and Megadrive are emulated.

I have the series X and very happy with it.

I also have a PS2 Slim SCPH-90004 with Modbo5 (Matrix clone), and an XBOX Crystal Original Console with a Xenium ICE fitted, for the titles I love that never made the backward compatibility list.

I rarely use my PS5 these days, I'm trying to finish Last of Us 2 (just upgraded to the remaster) but I find myself drifting away easy. I play a little bit of Gran Turismo 7 and that's it really.

I'm mostly using my PC or Steamdeck these days, almost no point getting an xbox with most games on PC.

And of course I tinker with my retro, recently my handhelds such as my Open Pandora that I bought from here years ago, from NinjaRabbit if I remember correctly!
 
I love PC Engine too as I got two console( white console and grey console) and some amazing games for it such Splatterhouse, Space Harrier, Operation Wolf, Power Drift, Outrun, R Type 1 and 2, Chase HQ, Ordyne (Wicked Shoot em up), Parodius Da, Shinobi, Vilgilante(good beat em up)

Xbox Game pass does really help keep xbox going :)

I have stop playing Last of us 2 because clicker Enemies make me shocked with no Warning (not good for my heart thought lol) as seem lots more scary than Resident Evil !

PC engine is a great console, the arcade ports are near perfect, I've got an original white Japanese PCE and a PCE GT, a few original games such as Super Star Soldier, Street Fighter 2, (have a pair if 6 button pads) and an Everdrive of course!

I am still on the look out for a Japanese PCE but, it's a matter of finding one in nice condition at reasonable cost.
 
Happy enough with my XBOX Series-X. Just a bleeding shame Ubisoft pulled the plug on the The Tom Clancy Vegas 1 & 2 servers 😳😔 At the moment I tend to game on my Amigas.
 
I've very happy with all my consoles. Just wish I could be arsed to play them!
 
Updates drive me mad, every time I switch on my Steamdeck it needs a million updates to the point I switch it off once it's done lol.
 
I liked the PSP but it broke a long time ago. I sometimes play PSP games on my android tablet but most gaming is on my PC. Never really felt the attraction for a console otherwise. In the Amiga days, the Amiga felt far ahead for a while. I used the Amiga for an equal share in productivity (well for hobby anyway, 3D rendering, audio etc) so never felt the CD32 would fit my use cases. That continued throughout my PC days to this day. I bought the PSP because at the time it had some uniquely now types of games you couldn't experience anywhere else in a portable format. I also played lots of MSX games with a jail broken PSP. The save state was handy for some games to cheat my way through without having to completely restart ;) Just to finally be able to finish some games I couldn't back in the day.
 
You should Play Ultimate Ghosts n Goblins Sony PSP(Quite tricky game), Padius (Shoot em up), Gadius collections, Burnout(racing car) :)
 
Yep, played lots of Parodius and Nemesis 1, 2 and 3 (Gradius in other countries) and Salamander, Aleste etc . Never got to like Ghosts n Goblins though, not really my thing, aka I suck at it too much lol!
 
Killzone is Amazing on PSP Vita and so is Ridge Racer(when first came out) :)
Also there is Capcom Collection 1 and 2
 
Being slow and old now my cs days on edladder long gone i like slow paced open world stuff

If it wasn’t for my lad playing on his xbox with his mates i would have cancelled my xbox gamepass ultimate last year. Every time i see a new game from xbox it’s meh even on pc.

Now my ps5 love it. I feel the ui is just so much better. Monthly games and the library just seems better on psplus and the games i play. God of war series. Death stranding ( waiting for 2 ). Days gone ( wish they made a sequel as well as mad max ) horizon zero dawn and forbidden west. Ghosts of tsushima. All brilliant games.
 
I almost never use my PS5. Last good game I played was Spider-Man 2. Very few A+ titles.. ( I use the PS5 controller on MiSter instead :P )
 
I have all 3 current generation consoles. Xbox Series S, PS5, Switch.

The platform with the most compelling games is without a doubt the Switch. I've played 4x more hours on the Switch than the other two combined.

There are very few PS5 titles that captured me to play for more than a few minutes (Astro's Playroom, Horizon Forbidden West, Assassin's Creed Valhalla/Mirage, Hogwarts Legacy). Where are the AAA PS5 games? Where is the Sony 1st party IP? (Resistance etc.)

My Xbox Series S I bought for playing Starfield, which I did for a couple of hours, Forza for another couple. It is now in Dev mode for playing homebrew. That is how much I think of Xbox games at the moment.
