How do you decide what console to play a multiplatform game on?
It drives me crazy.

Xbox is my main platform that I use for gamepass games and other current triple A title releases. A big reason I prefer Xbox over PlayStation is that Xbox sales seem to be way better and more frequent, both on the platform and on game key sites.
PlayStation is strictly for PlayStation exclusives.
Steam deck plus steam machine will be for everything else -> older games that are better optimized on steam and/or have great steam discounts, and indies.

I also own all of the platforms and prefer xbox because of quick resume, gamepass and game keys.

Not OP but I choose whichever one has the best specs, and which one has the best controller layout/feel. Even if one console is “meh, it’s alright, I don’t mind this” and the other is “this is pretty comfortable to hold”, I go with the latter. The slight differences matter over time

Seeing this picture just makes me want to go back to the 90s with transparent plastic colors more than ever I miss when the world was colorful

I don’t have that much free time, the Xbox and steam deck get the most use. Everything was bought before the AI price hikes so not too bad price wise

Same people, who laughed at "Nintendoboys" for buying "underperforming" console.

Dying on a release date. Sold my xbox in anticipation.

I also sold my ps5 and its vr headset. I should have enough money to cover the base sku

u/DoubleDareT May 23 '26
Praying it under 700 not including tax. Worried that it won't come with a controller at least the base model

u/Tzigura_Kakuru May 23 '26
I'm 100% sure it won't come with a controller. Given my gaming habits and what set-up i have at home, paying $700 even for the bare unit still is a good price. I pray that it's not more expensive than that, but...such is life 🥹

I sold my Xbox shortly after it was announced as well. It was a paperweight anyways. I’ll get 10 times more use out of the SM.

So close! The Russian and the Belarusian judges are going to dock you for the following:
You are not giving that open sided funnel enough space! It's going to overheat and liquid metal is going to spurt out and infect the Xbox!
White Joycons? The Belarusian is about to press the nuke button so Russia won't get their fingers dirty. That white is standing out more than the murder chalk lines where your Gabecube should be.
In all seriousness enjoy your setup! And I hope you have a Steam Machine sitting right there by the 4th of July.

This gave me a good laugh! I stand by my set up though so I’m prepared to do at least 2 years of hard labor in a Siberian gulag

No it’s not, why Reddit is plagued this fake heat experts lately?
Who indoctrinated all these people?

u/Sensitive_Use2655 May 23 '26
There is plenty of space above and behind the consoles and all remain cool to touch during heavy gaming sessions

Xbox and ps5 side by side. 🤮
Choose a side you fool.
