!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The whole heckin console is your launcher. So now you need another whole box IRL for the other launchers. Be sure to fiddle with your TV's source selection button that for some reason can never work the way we expect.

Not really how that works, but I get some people have a pathological need to shit on consoles for no reason.

That's exactly how that works, but some people have a pathological need to defend their buyer's remorse.

No it's not, different hardware isn't equivalent to different launchers. Because if it was you could say the same exact thing about PCs.

The point is, on console whether you play a ubisoft game or EA game or Microsoft game, they all are launched from the same native launcher.

And I literally don't even own a modern console and play all my games on PC, so have no buyers remorse. So please stop with this infantile platform war bullshit. I'm assuming you're a grown-ass man, so please act like it.

Some things are objectively better and the people defending that which isn't are making my experience worse. I'm gonna talk about it. Deal with it.
