I don't follow esports. I rather play games myself then watch other people play it.
@FC-Eddie_NL
Wow, thats great. I did think iβd get top advice like that
.
Ok, i see, thats the general preference about esports.
Curiously asking, what type of games are you into more? I think RGPs/story driven games, right?
Or anything competitive too? -

Or anything competitive too?RPG's are indeed my favorite genre. I also like arcade racing games like Need for Speed. And sometimes open world action games like GTA and Red Dead Redemption or a first- or third-person shooter.
I play pretty much singleplayer only. In the past I played the older Call of Duty games (Modern Warfare and the first few Black Ops titles). It was pretty fun to go online even though I wasn't really good at it, but eventually I got bored with it. I also played Fall Guys for a while. That is a pretty fun game aswell.

@Mastermind-XI Still the OG games you've played on the PC

Just saw the message from Rockstar with another delay on GTA VI ! Launch date moved to november 26. The game allready should've been out a year ago..
Things like this make the expectation higher, but probably it does'nt compensate the waiting.

That was pretty much to be expected. Rockstar has delayed GTA IV, GTA V and both Red Dead Redemption games aswell, so the chance that GTA VI would come out on May 26th was pretty small. That 2025-release they had in the very beginning was nothing more than a placeholder, not a realistic releasedate. So this is the first delay.

@JAY-ZO I don't know much about upcoming games besides Fifa & GTA

AC was the option, but you mentionted it by yourself, did you play al of the AC games? If you got the Playstation Premium package you can download a ton of old games from the PSX/2/3/4 and play them on the PS5.
Metal Gear Solid was a cracker back in the days, Scarface as well. Resident Evil series. They've made a remaster of the Resident Evil one.
I've started gaming when i was 4 with a Nintendo Gameboy (the big old one) and a SNES. But that kind of games are not worth mentioning.

Nice. I started to play games when I was around 8 or 9 years old I think. It started with the MSX. My brother had a SNES and Nintendo 64. I shared the first Game Boy with my sister and later bought the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance. My very first console was the Xbox 360. Later got the Xbox One and bought the blue Playstation Days of Play version of the PS4 Slim.

@BrandZone_NL
nice.
I havenβt played every single assassins creed. Memorable ones are also origins and valhalla, iβm not sure i finished them
.
Oh yeah, the legend of zelda, thats one i forgot. What a game. The thing is, these games have pretty much the same stuff, with going somewhere to reveal more of the map, fighting, completing quests etc.
Only thing with the legend of zelda is that breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom, and links awakening and echoes of wisdom, they have very different animation style, which i think doesnβt suit the series. It should all be like the first 2 in my opinion.
Have you guys played elden ring or ghost of tushima? Or spider man 2 even? Apparently they are very very good.One thing we havenβt talked about is esports. I think you guys might not watch that much, i watch quite often. Any esports you watch or youβre looking forward to?
@JAY-ZO I don't get the E-Sports concept.
Back in the days when you've been with 3 friends and there have been only 2 controllers or playing a single player with your friends with you the E-Sport was to watch the game and hope they did'nt play for to long so it was your turn. Never liked it

@FC-Eddie_NL Yes the Gameboy color was the next in the line, playing the first Pokemons with it.
But good to see that you've switched from the XBOX to Playstation.
In my case it was:
Gameboy-->Gameboy Color--> PSP-->Nothing
SNES-->Nintendo 64-->PSX (and hacked it so you could play ilegal downloaded games)-->PS2 (hacked it as well)-->PS3-->PS4-->PS5.Played X-BOX at some friends as well but always stayed faithfull to PS. But i think that the real gamers prefered XBOX.

@BrandZone_NL
i see.
I think the real gamers prefer ps now.
Some of my older family members tell me about hacking as well.

I haven't switched to Playstation. Xbox is my main console and I prefer the Xbox Series X over PS5. I like the Xbox controller a lot more, Xbox has a much better ecosystem and Xbox Game Pass is still an interesting idea, despite it's 50% price increase. I basicly only bought the PS5 for the Trails saga (not on Xbox) and for reviewing purposes. We don't always get a review code for the Xbox.
However, as @JAY-ZO mentioned, most real gamers have switched to Playstation back in 2013/2014, because Microsoft messed up the launch of the Xbox One. Playstation outsells Xbox and that gap is only increasing, but gets outselled by Nintendo. During the Xbox 360/Playstation 3 era, Xbox was king.

I have donβt know anything about xbox game pass, is it better than the PlayStation one? How many tiers are there, do they offer more than whatβs in the tiers of ps plus?

This is basicaly the new Game Pass:

It's pretty similar to ps plus, but Ultimate has the extra thing of day one releases. This includes all first-party titles (Xbox Games Studios), the indielabel ID@Xbox and some third-pary support.
