The early 90s were full-on but neither company was fighting for survival so it was all in good fun. 5th gen was insane, Nintendo almost Died bc of No Games.

I can't even "notice" how good Demon's Souls PS5's graphics are. Sony fanboys all call me an idiot. it supposedly has the best graphics of all time or something.

I haven't even thought about graphics in a long time. MGS5 looks incredible but a lot of that is Kojima's cinematography and attention to detail. The enemy camps and the Land look like original Xbox shit to me. GTA4 looked current gen practically.

as long as its representational and the art is of high quality, its good. gameplay is so much more important.

real gamers know that a game with dated graphics but top quality art (color, lighting, angles, quality sprites/models) can be preferable to some 2023 western Scum trash.

the obsession with numerical hardware performance is something the Nerds sold to the Preps as a way to impress idiot Scum

give one reason why you don't care as a probable holder of MSFT stock via some ETF or another. whether Xbox wins has an appreciable effect on your portfolio imo.

MSFT is above winning console gens, they want to go all in on cloud gaming.

It's when the console wars stopped being a "game" and started having some real teeth. People got irate over this stuff, affected friendships etc. Chaz Warden had something to do with this IMO

Yeah things got dramatic and in some cases violent bc MSFT brought a bunch of Scum into the fold. PS1 vs Saturn wars were waged through long-form internet posts with references to Chaucer and Goethe. PS1 fans espoused the Engineering of Gran Turismo. Sega fans wrote grad school theses on Guardisn Heroes. Coffee shops were ablaze with the flames of war. These times were far more heated then you give them credit before because you’re a philistine who just mindlessly played Mario Party at age 27 in 2000.
