I'm personally pretty bummed by this news. This isn't $450(+tax) worth of console, IMO. They went backwards in some areas (no OLED screen??) and simply refused to make much-needed improvements in others (no Hall effect sticks??).
I was really hoping the Switch 2 would go the way of the 3DS, with a disappointing launch that caused Nintendo to bring the price back down to Earth.
I simply don't understand why people want to spend $500+ to play Mario Kart. At this point, I've just gotta accept the fact that it's not a consult console - or a brand - for me.
EDIT: "consult" to "console"; keeping it as strikethrough to preserve the joke/accurate point in the reply.
They keep getting elected, primarily because the voting populace believes any member of the other team is worse (and refuses to seriously consider any third party).
What the fuck is Sony doing lately? They are clueless when it comes to live service gaming. Like, Marathon may not be perfect, but isn't that the whole point of doing a limited alpha or whatever?
+1. Been using Boost since Jeroba went through rough times. I've really enjoyed it, especially the handy feature that lets me filter all posts containing specific words.
I have a Corsair K100 and it does all the normal keyboard stuff without any software even installed on my machine. Also, the RGB lighting can run from on-device memory, which is super nice.
But will it also lead to overall cost savings? Because that's what really matters in the Late Stage Capitalism Machine.
My sense is that no, it will NOT lead to cost savings due to lawsuits and whatnot, which is probably part of the reason workplace safety exists as a government function. But the Cheeto in Chief doesn't understand or care, so here we are again.
Microsoft doesn't expect anyone to pay $80. They expect people to sub to Game Pass instead.
