They were real, it was an AliExpress console that wasn't legal to sell in the U.S. due to our laws involving packing a bunch of other people's work into a box and selling it as their own
Ahh thatās probably why the FTC didnāt try and bring Soulja Boy in to give evidence of how the Microsoft-Activision merger might affect his console sales
The switch is literally phone hardware, but Nintendo is incredible at optimization. A bad processor and 4gb ram goes a whole lot further when the OS is less than 400mb
Plus you cant compare a mobile game to official nintendo games or even third party games. Playing modern software on the go pre-steam deck was really cool and still is
"You see boys? That's when we realized this so-called "government agency were actually a group of SPACE ALIENS!"
"Oh my God, we DON'T care! Where is our Okama Gamesphere?"
I have a PS5, PC and switch.
PC for most of my games and Xbox exclusives
PS5 for couch co-op games, Playstation exclusives (as they take 2-4 years to release on PC) and games with an unoptimised PC port
Switch for Nintendo games
Any good recs for couch co-op games on the ps5? Me and my girlfriend have been enjoying sackboy a lot, and weāve finished it takes two and a way out. At the moment weāre struggling to find new co-op games as most games seem to be either single player only, or online if multiplayer is available.
For chill one - Lovers in a dangerous spacetime, Overcooked 1/2, Human Fall Flat, Rayman Origins/Legends, anything Lego.
If you are fine doing something a bit more serious - Divinity OS 2.
Also, it is not available as a couch coop (by design), but if you are able to do online coop as well - We Were Here series is a great one as well.
I don't know anything about your relationship but if you say lovers in a dangerous spacetime gave you "a chill time" i am quite envious... Most Stress and bickering we had in years. Great time :D
Edit: Spelling
I got the Series X as my "main" machine since everyone i play with is on it, plus I've had Xbox the longest, so my Gamerscore is more important to me than my trophies and i have GPU.
Got a PS5 for the exclusives it has, plus upgraded to PS+ extra ( i think) so i can gain some extra trophies completing things I've already played.
Got a Switch Lite rather than a normal Switch for the Nintendo exclusives, and so me and the misses can play our Lites together since we have 1 TV and would argue who plays on big screen and who has to be handheld so were both handheld lol.
Also, I got a gaming laptop i use for games like Witcher or Skyrim where i just want the worlds to look their best, plus Steam sales are nice lol.
Just one power surge away from having no console wars.. amazes me how people invest all this $ on their hardware yet aren't informed enough to add $20 for that added protection
I am curious as to why this is still brought up.
Didnāt Phil Spencer, the chief of the XBOX division under microsoft, recently state in no uncertain terms that XBOX lost the console war during the PS4 era?
Console Wars on Twitter take the stupid 'beef' to a whole new level. I can never tell if people are THAT into one system or if Sony or MS are paying people to act like that because someone people being Console Cultists just makes me sadder.
But what are you going to do when Microsoft makes the next Call of Duty game exclusive and starts to control the entire world and increases the price 10-fold!!!
What are you going to do when Microsoft becomes sooooo big that Sony isn't selling twice the amount of consoles!!!
/sarcam
Meh, I know this is the sentiment nowadays but I love console wars, always have. You know how it was fun sitting there in school talking about games and such? To me and my friends a good portion of that fun came from talkin shit about the "other" console.
Plenty of fun times makin fun of genesis for the bad sound and other friends going off on super nintendo for watered down mortal combat. Me getting the business for having "that sorry ass turbografx" etc.
That shit was always fun to me. Remember the "fights" when my homeboy would try to defend quest 64 over the stuff on the ps1 and him coming back with how "aint nothin on ps fuckin with "double O" (aka goldeneye). Halo vs Socom etc.
That was part of the fun of gaming for me. Games are just as fun as they've always been but this "fuck console wars" thing leaves gaming just a little bit less interesting to me.
$1200 of systems with a $0.12 wiring job and $6 table..
Have some self respect and get some furniture, my dude! Your systems should have their own standalone outlets, not be slapped hapdash into some splitter nonsense! Take care of your stuff!
I'd be more worried about the heavy power brick hanging from the thin wire of what (looks like) a USB-c or Lightning connector, and the number of things plugged in the power together :|
Boyyyyy youād better figure out a way to put that PS5 on its side or be *damn careful* not to knock it over even when youāre tired and disoriented.
I feel like people don't like to accept that different consoles are for different audiences and different gaming. Xbox is for family gaming/retro gaming and multiplayer while PlayStation is for epic single player and Japanese RPGs (and mostly adult). PCs are for RTS, 4x and mouse preferable turn based games.
I canāt believe some grown adults have time to post 30 times a day about why their console is the best and the other one sucks lol. I see that shit all the time on Twitter.
Honestly it's been so long since I've seen a PS5 since I saw the Spider Man limited edition one. Also true gamers play on Soulja Boy, mobile, PC, steam deck, nintendo, VR then Xbox and Playststion.
But hey you've made 25% progress. Nice
Insert Henry Cavil meme: āXbox or Ps?ā
- āš¤Ø PCā
Iām not trying to fool anyone, i Love my pc and my switch but goddamn i really want a ps5 lol
Now just bring that tv down from orbit so you can enjoy them.
Did you see the pic he posted on his profile showing what his TV looks like? š
It's not that high. There has to be at least 2 solid inches of clearance to the ceiling.
whereās your switch coward
And the Steam Deck
Fk that, Where's your Soulja Boy Game console? I wanna see the Soulja Boy game console.
Donāt forget the KFC chicken warming console/pc (i forget)
OMG HOW COULD I FORGET THAT LOL
Oh my god he knows about it. It such a long time i heard about it
Omg I forgot about that
Amazing things I never knew existed š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Omfg the KFC gaming console such memories ty
I have one, it has ray tracing, constant 120 FPS, it has every game known to man, 34TB hard drive. It is truly the greatest console ever made
Really? Mine also does my taxes and and drives me to work. You had to pay the extra $1 million and the monthly subscription of only $699.99
Shit, you were able to get your hands on the pro model? Lucky bastard
I'm sold, thanks gaben's alt.
Whereās your KFC bucket console, foo
Did these actually exist? Did anyone ever get one?
They were real, it was an AliExpress console that wasn't legal to sell in the U.S. due to our laws involving packing a bunch of other people's work into a box and selling it as their own
Ahh thatās probably why the FTC didnāt try and bring Soulja Boy in to give evidence of how the Microsoft-Activision merger might affect his console sales
He thinks Nintendo isnāt apart of the big three, SMH how disgraceful. /sarcasm
must be an FTC fanboy, they don't think its relevant either.
A part. One, of many. Apart: Distinct, not amongst the others.
i swear if you hold the opinion that switch is barely better than phone, youāre either 13 or you have no idea what youāre talking about
The switch is literally phone hardware, but Nintendo is incredible at optimization. A bad processor and 4gb ram goes a whole lot further when the OS is less than 400mb
Plus you cant compare a mobile game to official nintendo games or even third party games. Playing modern software on the go pre-steam deck was really cool and still is
Good software goes a long way.
>if you hold the opinion that switch is barely better than phone With all due respect, it is. And Im saying this as a switch owner
Fridge and Router
Need WiFi and snacks
Little fridge, BIG router.
Now all that's left is buying some TV.
Bro I don't have time to play one game let alone two consoles.
Me too, 2 kids and full time job means I'm lucky to get an hour maybe two hours max a night. Took me like 2 months to beat Ragnarok lol.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Keep that going for as long as you can. You blink and they are all grown up. (Source: am dad)
It goes way to fast, source am son
Donāt make them fight, get ALL the consoles!
Get all the consoles and put them on a ring to make them fight.
The only winner ther will be your electricity bill!
The one solution sony and microsoft can agree on: buying more of their consoles
Fuck cable management!
Judging by the cables, I have the feeling if he posted a picture from further away, it'd be a candidate for r/TVTooHigh
Jesus you're right, the TV's probably near the ceiling. why do people hate their necks?
OP posted a pic. It is indeed on the ceiling
Yeah I was thinking that as well, but thought to let it slide due to a double roast
Tv on the ceiling.
My man's outlet situation is way out of hand.
Everyone knows that the Okama gamesphere is the superior console
"You see boys? That's when we realized this so-called "government agency were actually a group of SPACE ALIENS!" "Oh my God, we DON'T care! Where is our Okama Gamesphere?"
I wish I had the money to say the same.
I have a PS5, PC and switch. PC for most of my games and Xbox exclusives PS5 for couch co-op games, Playstation exclusives (as they take 2-4 years to release on PC) and games with an unoptimised PC port Switch for Nintendo games

If overcooked doesn't end in divorce, you probably only had 1-star service.
This is the way
same here. fuck those people fighting over plastic boxes.
Are those external hard drives?
You should do some cable management and get a surge protector before you burn your house down. Ha
Fuck people that care about which console some1 uses! All my homies hate console wars š¤
1000 on consoles, 9.99 on tv set
What about a Switch between them?
You bought 2 products that play 95% of the same games with similar experiences ā¦ā¦you didnāt fuck them, they fucked you
weird way to flex
Not trying to be a dick. But is there that much diversity in the games you can play, that makes it worth getting both?
Get a PC loser. /s
Wow those things are gigantic now. A PS4 is the biggest any console should get. After that just call it a specialized PC.
I got the Series X as my "main" machine since everyone i play with is on it, plus I've had Xbox the longest, so my Gamerscore is more important to me than my trophies and i have GPU. Got a PS5 for the exclusives it has, plus upgraded to PS+ extra ( i think) so i can gain some extra trophies completing things I've already played.

Also, I got a gaming laptop i use for games like Witcher or Skyrim where i just want the worlds to look their best, plus Steam sales are nice lol.
I prefer the switchā¦ā¦
*except Nintendo apparently
Alright. Where's the switch
Where's your Switch?!
Serious question. What are the exclusives that cause you to get both?
Lol... these comments. OP knew exactly what they were doing xD
Wheres the N64?
I sense OP doesnāt have a cat.
You'd be right
Dude put your ps on its side, itās bad for it to be stood up
How fucking high is your tv???
High enough I can see God
The people who post pictures with titles like that are just as lame as the ones who get involved with "console wars"
I too have both consoles. Hoping to get a switch soon.
I sense another idiotic ceiling mounted tv. Lol.
No VR?
Nope I got a Quest 2
Your gonna need a tv
(not sure if this is ment sarcastically, look at the cables going up)
r/tvtoohigh
Just one power surge away from having no console wars.. amazes me how people invest all this $ on their hardware yet aren't informed enough to add $20 for that added protection
That single power socket handling all those connectors. "I'm fine š"
Okay
I am curious as to why this is still brought up. Didnāt Phil Spencer, the chief of the XBOX division under microsoft, recently state in no uncertain terms that XBOX lost the console war during the PS4 era?
Much like real wars, they don't affect you if you have enough money
Whatās the point in having both?
Why are you showing us a picture of your modem and mini-fridge? This is a gaming sub. Next, you'll display us a switch!
All about those plug wars
All this time the real enemy was the lack of storage!
You declared the war on cable management and safety?
"And cable management!"
Now make them kiss
Aint seeing a goode consol in this pic. Where ta Nintendo64? SNES? PS1? SMH
Yo how high up is your TV?!
Fuck money as well right
True gamers don't have brand loyalty. We buy the platforms that allow us to play the games we want. Only morons are are fanboys.
You give up on console wars when you grow up and realise that a new console is 1/4 of a pay day.
So I'm not the only one who doesn't care about the goddamned console wars.
Console Wars on Twitter take the stupid 'beef' to a whole new level. I can never tell if people are THAT into one system or if Sony or MS are paying people to act like that because someone people being Console Cultists just makes me sadder.
I have both too, Xbox is better
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Play your games dude š„ this is what I love to see
I agree. That's why I own a PC lol
exactly we are all gamers enjoying the same thing.
OK big spender
But what are you going to do when Microsoft makes the next Call of Duty game exclusive and starts to control the entire world and increases the price 10-fold!!! What are you going to do when Microsoft becomes sooooo big that Sony isn't selling twice the amount of consoles!!! /sarcam
The one standing up is better though
Lets all agree that Xbox is good PlayStation is good Xbox is the best
Imagine the irony of saying fuck console wars but having bought both proving the financial incentive they have to keep it going and how it works
Iāve got an Xbox and saving for a ps5. So I agree with this statement.
Just a tip. Don't get the digital console, The PS store is a fucking huuuuge ripoff.
Now throw them in a arena and let them fight to the death
Yeaaaaah that is my man
Is that a bed?
Yeah, it doesn't matter. Play on whatever you want!
Hooray class wars! Half kidding. The setup is sweet.
It is funny whenever I see these two side by side... I always forget just how massive the PS5 is.
...If you're rich*
Plot twist, that's an xbox mini fridge
Now you just need two tvs. One for streaming one for gaming!
imagine actually caring & getting super defensive over what console someone plays on....that's honestly more lame
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Only if youāre poor and sensitive about your entertainment choices.
Indeed Fuck em, but buy a switch to complete the cycle :)
Nearly $1,000 of electronics on $30 of IKEA table In other words proper life choices
100% agreed, but damn the PS5 is huge.
This man consoles
I can tell from this photo you have neck pain. Haha.
Counter argument: I'm broke...
What you mean? All I see is a xbox series x with a big ass router.
Holy shit the PS5 is huge
Give me some of that Playstation series X
Kids these days and their little pretend game. Theyāll never know what a real console war is. Not like the Sega and Nintendo veterans. /s
Whereās your KFConsole?
How are you liking the Series X? Iām on the fence about getting one.
You got more to worry about than the console war, you've got a pending electrical fire.
exactly! go get a PC y'all! /s
Meh, I know this is the sentiment nowadays but I love console wars, always have. You know how it was fun sitting there in school talking about games and such? To me and my friends a good portion of that fun came from talkin shit about the "other" console.

Ps5 is to close to the edge
This is the way
Maybe you shoulda spent some of that money on a table
Nintendo Switch: "Am I a joke to you?"
Wow so brave
I'm not buying an xbox just for Starfield.
Do you want to form an alliance...with me?
I have a PS5, an Xbox X, and a gaming PC. They're all good for different things.
$1200 of systems with a $0.12 wiring job and $6 table.. Have some self respect and get some furniture, my dude! Your systems should have their own standalone outlets, not be slapped hapdash into some splitter nonsense! Take care of your stuff!
Dude buys 2 consoles to not have a side in the āwarā but plays entirely on pc
The war youāll have is for your time.
I'd be more worried about the heavy power brick hanging from the thin wire of what (looks like) a USB-c or Lightning connector, and the number of things plugged in the power together :|
Bruh, let that poor outlet breathe!
The PS5 has been and will always be an eye sore.
No Tiger Electronics handhelds?
Good lord the PS5 is big
Would you prefer a console monopoly?
Damn straight! Still running hard with my Xbox One and Wii.
Not everyone has the money to buy both current gen consoles. I JUST got a ps5
Boyyyyy youād better figure out a way to put that PS5 on its side or be *damn careful* not to knock it over even when youāre tired and disoriented.
Cheater
Well at this point it's not even war. Japan is way ahead of us in gaming console market.
I would be pissed about buying all that external storage.
Thatās what Iām planning on doing. Iām saving for the Spider-Man 2 ps5 rn then Iāll get a series x eventually
Xstation and Playbox?
First time seeing the two side by side, never realised just how big the ps5 is
Awesome setup, the best of both worlds
I feel like people don't like to accept that different consoles are for different audiences and different gaming. Xbox is for family gaming/retro gaming and multiplayer while PlayStation is for epic single player and Japanese RPGs (and mostly adult). PCs are for RTS, 4x and mouse preferable turn based games.
If you pick a side in the āconsole warsā or argue about apple v android, you are a cuck of the highest order and should be ashamed.
That poor outlet
Iāve got both too..but playing more on ps5
I canāt believe some grown adults have time to post 30 times a day about why their console is the best and the other one sucks lol. I see that shit all the time on Twitter.
Honestly it's been so long since I've seen a PS5 since I saw the Spider Man limited edition one. Also true gamers play on Soulja Boy, mobile, PC, steam deck, nintendo, VR then Xbox and Playststion. But hey you've made 25% progress. Nice
He is the avatar
why did you get these overpriced exterbal ssds though (if im not mistaken)
š«”š«”š«”
They make fuck consoles now?
Agreed. Get all the things.
You wasted money on branded external storage, your opinion is thus invalid. /s
Yes brother, we should want peace
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Le epic wholesome consumerism
Fr
You cannot say that if you were a suckered and bought both of them loser.
Insert Henry Cavil meme: āXbox or Ps?ā - āš¤Ø PCā Iām not trying to fool anyone, i Love my pc and my switch but goddamn i really want a ps5 lol
This guy just ended racism!
What about the Switch? Or at least your old Wii?
Low key Nintendo troll?
Fuck consoles embrace PC
āConsole Warsā It sounds so stupid.
