What is going to be your next gaming platform?

[xboxdigger 94]

Gaming platforms I own: N64, Gamecube, WII, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox one. and some handhelds. 

For the first time ever I am thinking of switching to either PC or PS5. Xbox is really only big in North America nowadays, and I am thinking in terms of competitive gameplay that switching to the PC or PS4 is a good move with regards to player population and connection host -  and that those things are going to be better for you on those platforms vs xbox if you live anywhere in the world except for North America. 

I am doing some 3d modelling/animation as a hobby and beefing up on a modelling/gaming pc wouldn't be a bad move. 

What about you?

Coincidentally, I have all the aforementioned systems, with the PS3 being the sole exception. Of course, I still have a PS4 (a console I rarely play, and don't really "own", anyway) my brother's old SNES (with a broken power port that I still have to replace; I have a replacement, but I just need to figure out how to solder it) and a Nintendo Switch, so I guess that evens it out.

PC gaming is predominately more competitive than console gaming; you'll be better off switching to the former for some good competition.

All the more reason to station it as your preferred platform. You might benefit more focusing on one system — using it as a multi-purpose conduit.

I'll stick with what I already have. The PS5 doesn't impress me enough to consider buying it. Maybe if more games like Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales catch my eye, I might be more inclined to buy it.

I recently built a new computer.  That's going to be it for me.  I don't really play video games much anymore and Halo Infinite is the only game that somewhat interests me, so I went that route.

I have defected to the PC Master Race.

I have me a 2nd hand but smoking game machine, 12G, 1T, 4Gvid

can simultaneously play MCC, run Unity, Blender, and video editing with no issues

Next console PS, not looking at XB for some time (they got to get their act together). Why would I get an XB when MCC is on Win10 and running better than on XB?
