Gaming Wish I was still a consolefag

I grew up with the Wii as a kid, and later got a PS4 which is where I learned all the slurs and english. Got a pc in 2017 then this year got a homebrewed ps3. But man I really miss my ps4. I miss playing on a tv, I miss there being people on mics and non-discord voice chats, I miss not having to set up shitty ports, and I miss not browsing for like an hour after 30 minutes of playing one game.

Kinda faggoted but I had the undertale theme for ps4 and it makes me miss it the most

consoles are undeniably kino but i still prefer a good pc setup that i may have to change just every 7-8 years if i keep real good care of it instead of it instead of having to buy the new ps88 release every 3 years, plus obviously the more freedom you get to mod it to the brim how you please (but even that is being restricted now)
on second topic call me whatever but the ost and bullet hell mechanic is probably the reason i bothered to finish underagetale on all of its routes

Might be my autism kicking in, but I really miss the UIs. XMB (and I hope you guys know what that is lol) is the most beautiful thing created by man and nothing will surpass it. Meanwhile, steam has 0 skins, 0 keyboard shortcuts (you have to doubleclick the fucking games), full of glitches thanks to jeets, and no sound effects or start up. Big picture is sluggish and bloated.

There was nothing better than the PS3 XMB. Everything was neatly categorized and easy to find. Which amazes me now because Sony managed to fuck up the PS5 version to the point it might even be worse than Steam’s layout.
 
I miss the free speech we used to have. Trash talking your opponent was half the fun. Now everything is monitored and you get banned for calling someone gay.
I got banned from the game Due Process for saying amouranth is a tranny in chat.
Game died, was a great game, but low iq pro censorship devs destroyed their own game..
Literally a fuckin game about cops and robbers shooting eachother with blood, guns, and bombs, but amouranth being a tranny is ban level evil.

People also got banned from the game for drawing dicks on the map and other degen shit. Was patheticly gay...
Game itself was super cool too, dead asf now.
 
I still play on consoles, although most of mine are modded to death, and the ones which aren't modded, will get modded whenever the mods are made available. If you pirate everything then it is rather cheap, same for if you and your frens have a ton of games already. If one fren buys a game, I can dump the game onto my consoles and just play for free without doing the account BS normally required whenever game-share is permitted at all, so that is nice.
How is the homebrew scene? How do the prices really compare to steam, if I'm on full copium?
It depends.

Pre-Switch homebrew scenes are amazing for Nintendo consoles. They're hacked to death, have their own online server replacements, etc. Wii Us are extremely easy to mod, and good for such too. I modded my Wii U of 10 years a long while back, it is very nice.

For Xbox consoles, it isn't as strong. Original Xbox is pretty easy to do, but Xbox 360 mods are significantly more risky to do. If you mod an Xbox 360, I would recommend using a different gamertag or not connecting online at all. There might be a way to use your main gamertag online without getting screwed, but it isn't worth it odds are. Regardless, there's quite a lot for Xbox 360 you can use. Skipping ahead to the Xbox Series X, you just pay $20 for dev-mode and then while you're running things in dev-mode, you can load emulators and other things of that sort. Weirdly, you can play Xbox 360 games via special emulators, not all of them but it is strange seeing titles that are not supported officially work through these unofficial emulators.

I am less sure about Playstation. I don't own a PS3, and I haven't ever modded a PS2. PS5 doesn't seemingly have many, if any mods, nor a dev-mode system like Xbox Series X. PS4 is moddable for versions 11.00 and below. Although, I am unsure how good of an idea it is to mod a PS4 for most, thus you'd probably be better off with an alternative. I have a 7.02 or 7.52 version PS4 sitting around, so I can use that for mods if I want to, but I haven't decided to do so as of now. If I do so, I will probably post the results.

There's also the option of just getting a Steam Deck and modding it to death, pirating everything as per usual.

I almost did this before I bought my PC. I learned you don’t need a Series X if you’re planning to emulate games. An S will work just fine and is significantly cheaper.

Isn't the Series X more powerful and has models with the disc drive? Ik for sure that the disc-drive is possible to find in an X, but I recall it having more power too. Although if it doesn't have much more power, then that wouldn't matter 90% of the time. If you like to use disc when possible like I do then it is very useful anyways, but ofc that depends on what you need.

I was thinking if you just want an emulation machine or want to play last gen games then it’s more than enough. Otherwise, yeah, the X is more powerful.
 

Been playing on ps3 lately. Mostly cause I installed sonic cd on it. Already have it on pc but most sonic games have been janny'd off steam, so I got all of them there. Been a great time! Very grateful to have a console like that.
The way SEGA's been scrubbing their old games off Steam is ridiculous. They keep pulling this "Disney Vault" crap with their library, trying to make people rebuy the same games on new platforms or through their own ecosystems.

This is why OMORI, Undertale, and other troonslop keyed games are better... they're always there for you. On a side note, can't you just emulate those games for free?
