The Series S is honestly a nice little console and I hope Sony or Microsoft makes another budget console come 2028 when next Gen comes out. (hexbear.net)

I had the series s for a couple years until I could afford a PS5 and it let a working class chick like myself enjoy current games on a budget. I still have it, and while I don't use it as much I'll still admit a series s and game pass is a god send for those of us who love to game but have other financial obligations and can't afford the beefier consoles ATM. (Or a capable gaming pc)

I realize Microsoft is a shit company, but I do think the series s is good for what it is.

Sucks that a vocal minority of idiot gamersTM complain about it "holding consoles back"

These are the people who only have video games in their lives and nothing else

Rant over. Much love ❤️

triple A games are IMO so washed now that power hungry hardware is completely unnecessary. I’m not paying 60 bucks to buy into a slot machine or dopamine treadmill. The budget consoles are all you need for all the best games anyway

Catch me playing Caves of Qud for 2000 hours and never going back.

The PS5 is nice for playing the last decade of PS4 games at 60fps, it’s been 4 years and PS5 games still pretty much don’t exist.

There was Demon’s Souls… And that’s literally all I can think of.
