Either Mario for restarting the video game industry after the crash.

no they dont. i have amazon prime and only a handful of shows are 4k and its mainly amazon original content.

this is also false but feel free to prove me wrong, its not every day i get egg on my face

i know you console fanboys just jumped on the 4k bandwagon but ive been gaming in 4k since 2015 thats the beauty of pc gaming

Netflix and Disney plus both have tons of 4k content. I'd like to see what movies made within the last five years are not available in 4k. There are probably a few, but every single big movie comes out in 4k now.

I also game on a 1080ti primarily. I've got a PS4 Pro, but most of my gaming is done on a PC. I'm certainly not a console fanboy.

It's always funny when Nintendo fans claim they don't care about graphics. You guys don't care about graphics now because your machine is weaker.

You should have seen yourself talk so much shit about how the GC is the superior console vs the PS2 and XBoX back then because of graphics.

I literally have a PC with a 1080ti in it. I love my Switch. I've played the Witcher 3 on both. The fact that I can play the Witcher 3 on business trips on a little handheld is amazing.

The point is no game in 2020 should run at 540p. That's like a joke or something. As I said I haven't seen a single game in the last 10 years to run in 540p

The Witcher 3 literally runs in 540p on the Switch. As are a bunch of others. It's simply not strong enough to handle massively large games like this at higher resolutions while also maintaining good framerates unless they really sacrifice the visuals.

And the developers for the Switch version of the Witcher 3 really tried their best to optimize it for the handheld. They've sporadically released updates to try and improve visuals and performance.

It runs just like XC2 which I honestly think looked and ran fine for a handheld console. Keep in mind we are talking about a handheld and not an actual gaming console. Look at the Witcher 3 on the Switch. It doesn't run any better.

Thank God. From's brand of show don't tell storytelling is the best in gaming. Shame they mostly ditched it in Sekiro.

It just makes the game feel like you are the only sane character in the entire world because no one you interact with speaks to you. Every NPC is an enemy and it just made it feel like one big dungeon. Not sure why thats a good thing.

With how bad HDR support is on Windows 10, some games look better on a PS4 pro than they do on PC by virtue of real support for HDR.

I play games mostly on my PS4 these days. The gap is much smaller than it used to be earlier in this generation or last gen.

That and exclusives, tons of games I would have missed out on if I only had a PC.

I use a 1080ti and a 5930k for reference.

Not really. $1000-1500 is how much most midrange watches cost.

I hate the aluminum finish because it just looks like you strapped a mini version of your phone to your wrist. The stainless steel watch looks like jewelery.

I'm a System Designer for Best Buy. Just about everyone in store got furloughed but they're still paying me my average wages (I'm comission so it averages out to about $30/hour) to do remote work until at least May 31st. Haven't been inside a store or client's home since March 13th and won't till at least May 31st so the company is definitely taking care of us. Very surprised that they're paying out what I averaged over last quarter rather than chopping it to minimum wage or something.
