Just got an Xbox 360 (not a PS3, but same generation) and a pile of games and it is totally worth it IMO. I mean the graphics are a bit rough obviously, but there are still great games to play. I also have an Xbox (Series S), and the 360 (and PS3 would be similar) because you get to play games before everything became about MTX and Battlepasses etc (though there was some of that especially towards the end). You can also play them offline generally speaking.
Wow didn't expect to be excited for a Mario game!
It's a way to communicate what you expect from a game not some conspiracy to brand all Japanese RPGs lol. Like saying a game is a soulslike or roguelike. I mean Elden Ring is sort of an RPG and never heard anyone call it a JRPG. For JRPG I expect, anime art style, party system, turn based combat, probably a lot of drama lol.
Well the older I get the more i slowly devolve into the same old games, Minecraft, Vintage Story, and Slay the Spire. Maybe some other games every so often, like last year was lots of Elden Ring. Hopefully this year will be Starfield but we'll see how that goes.
I also find i have less and less patience to start a new "AAA" game where you like have to do like 1-2 hours (or so it seems) tutorial and cut scenes before really playing.
PC and I have an Xbox Series S mostly for family playing. I had considered a PS5 but not much compelling on there, and I just know that actually i'm just going to end up playing my PC favorites anyways.
Interestingly though I recent got a 360 again - I think that era was peak console gaming, enough tech for decent graphics and gameplay, but before mtx and season passes kind of ruined everything AAA. (PS2 era was pretty good also, but doing some emulation play of older games...it's really mostly nostalgia carrying them and gameplay, not just graphics, were being held back by technology)
Got YT Premium for my family the past few years, it's been great NGL. It probably gets more use than any other streaming service, and would probably be the last paid service i gave up for video.
Nice, especially with the trim!
Call it what you want, just fix it.
It's a bit like email as I understand it - just different format and more people involved. You can get email thru an app, a website, and multiple different servers run email servers.
Doesn't really matter TBH. Got me to discover lemmy & kbin and stop using Reddit. So they can black out or not, I'm no longer there (same with Facebook, Twitter etc). Just happy to have a new good replacement.
Really enjoying it so far. Complete old school FEAR vibe.
