@Fiendish-Beaver i agree, if the combined cost of PS6 and NeXt box break £1000 they are just begging for people to start playing on PC.
Once you factor in the genuinely free games, no subscriptions and some ludicrous sales (albeit not as good as they once were) then consoles will really start to lose their shine as a place to play.
I was so positive for Xbox coming into it and giving Sony a run for their money but their decision making is totally erratic and now Sony are pushing the hobby more and more into the premium price bracket.
If Nintendo mess up their next console I think I'm basically done.

Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite Xbox Game Of The Year So Far?
It hadn't occurred to me until I read that poll, but I don't think i've bought anything on Xbox this year!
There just seems no point in keeping investing in a platform that seems to have such an uncertain future...
Maybe things will change when my gamepass expires but that's a long way off.
Re: EA Reveals Performance Targets For Star Wars Jedi: Survivor On Xbox One
I am super intrigued by the idea of the og X1 running this game - especially at launch, it might be a bit rough....
Re: The Xbox Game Pass Conversion Ratios Have Gotten Worse This Week
Yay! More rubbish news for gamers... this generation is going to be the one that when we look back was a breaking point for the industry.
Something has to change.
Re: Poll: How Much Would You Pay For An Xbox Series X Pro?
I wouldn't pay for it and not because I'm particularly sold by my Series X either.
This gen made quite a few promises and really only delivered on load times.
MS did some good work on the software back end for backwards compatibility but otherwise we have been largely let down.
There is no reason to put more money into hardware at this stage, you just aren't getting enough of a benefit.
I would much rather see a push towards more flexible use devices like Switch and Steam deck than another 'power' console.

This generation monumentally sucks.
