First I played: GameCube

First I was gifted: New Nintendo 2DS XL

First I bought: Xbox Series X

I had two, the GameCube and the PS3, but this was like 2013 so they were REALLY old by that point, but I was 5 so I didn’t care

Oh yes, I forgot the series s can upscale to 4K, but series x can play true 4k

Agreed, different gamers like different things, and being civil about our opinions is the best way to communicate them, I like how your response wasn’t just you’re wrong, I find that too often on r/consoles

I was looking for a PC elitist somewhere in here, funny, there are usually a lot more

For me, game pass is a really great way to try out new games, PS plus is far behind game pass in games. In short I use my PlayStation for exclusives, and my Xbox for branching out, and finding games i absolutely loved, like High on Life.

Much better graphics, and twice the storage, series s outputs at max 1440p but if you are playing on a TV, which I expect most of you are, there are no 1440p TVs, so you will be likely playing at 1080p, the max fps you can run is the same on both consoles, 120fps. Also the series x has a disk drive, they are both great consoles, and they are for different kinds of gamers, if you have game pass, and are exclusively using game pass, then the series s out ways the series s, but if you enjoy 4K and use the disc drive a lot, I would say you’re best bet would be the series x

Same, I’ve had my Xbox series x since 2 weeks after launch, and I haven’t noticed any changes since I got it. My Xbox One S hasn’t slowed since I got it 6 years ago, and that was using it heavily and forgetting to dust the vents.

Both are pretty easy

Both systems are pretty easy to use, I have an Xbox series x and a ps4 so I’m not a fanboy of either, I personally prefer the Xbox OS but that’s just me.

Can’t argue with that

Their talking about you

That’s possible too, but harder on the steam deck than on pc, cause it’s not a mini pc, I do not believe you get access to the files

I do like the OS of the switch better, but with how much money you have put into steam games, I’d say go for the one that allows you to play such games on the go, and with Sony exclusives slowly trickling into steam, the steam deck can kinda be like a ps vita into a way, but also allowing for other games, ultimately your gonna get enjoyment out of both, it’s just your gonna have to spend like an extra 350 euros creating an expansive library

I’m in Canada, I and I have absolutely no idea how much the euro is worth, I know it’s worth more that USD and Cad, but not much else

If you already have 200+ games on steam I would get the steam deck, cause games nowadays cost $80 Canadian, or $70 USD

You don’t need to be rude, and I never said for triple A games, those usually run at true 4K 60fps. Stop commenting on a device you don’t even own.

I stand corrected, sorry for the misunderstanding

Digital Foundry have been involved in a lot of controversy, and not whenever I check anywhere about digital foundry, it’s telling me they are biased, I used to believe in digital foundry, but I don’t anymore, if you have a different source other than digital foundry that shows the same results I’ll believe you, but I don’t trust something so deep in controversy

You go into settings, and you set a resolution, Xbox generally sacrifices frame rate before resolution, and even on quality mode, Xbox likes to keep resolution the same, and if it does change, like in the middle of an intense battle, I check the settings every couple of minutes, staying at 4K

Cool, well I was playing true 4K 60fps, making sure nothing dipped, and it didn’t.

Edit: I did not mod my xbox or change it in any way

Do you have a series x?

I was in the radahn festival while recording the frame rate, that is probably the most things on screen at once, and I was actively fighting, I played through my first playthrough entirely on 4K 60fps with no issues

Never mind, it’s sometimes hard to tell the difference between 120 fps and 60 fps, I was wrong that it can run 120 fps, and my settings in my console said I was running 120, but I guess I wasn’t, but Elden Ring can still run 4K 60 fps, pretty smoothly, though I must have turned on quality mode at some point

What are you playing on, because it can vary between devices
