Good deal, Basil. With MSoft launching its games on both console and PC on day one, will you really use it or it's more of a collectionist thing?

I'll play the games on Xbox first and will then play them in the future on Steam

(Also the achievements you unlock on Xbox will automatically unlock on Steam).

But the main reason why I got a Xbox is for the b/c titles which I have more than enough to last me a while.

The rest of the games I got on Xbox One are just the first party titles that were sold for less than $20 (Cheaper than Steam prices) and third party multiplat titles like Final Fantasy which I got for like $10 or less.

Like the last game I bought was Halo Infinite for $15.

Ok.

My current gaming computer isnt up to date - and I'm playing through 1080p (sometimes 1440p).

I'll upgrade my gaming desktop end of 2024 or sometime in 2025.

In the mean time, there's a long list of other PC games I want to play on my gaming computer.

Got the new setup mostly dialed in after some holiday shopping. Biggest purchase was a Huion Kamvas Pro 24 4k graphics tablet (and another chair upgrade, lol). Feels great to draw on. This is my first time adding a second monitor to my home setup. I never wanted to have to turn my head to focus on one display over another so this seemed like a good compromise. Now I can create and watch YouTube or whatever else at the same time! Makes the process much more pleasant. Next year's big purchase will probably be a decent video camera with all the attachments that will double as a quality webchat/streaming camera most of the time. Should have just enough room on my right there, lol.

Nice setup and grats. Like the blacked up theme going on, looks great. Was thinking of getting another monitor underneath though not for drawing but that graphics tablet is huge! Gone a long way since the old Wacom stuff.

And that 4090... the big mass of GPU always surprises me when it comes to seeing it in proper builds. Almost the length of your mid tower lol.

Some of you took advantage of the Black Friday deals, or so it seems. Nice setup, TallSilhouette, although having the TV right there might be a bit distracting. By the way, may I ask... what's in the box? (sorry, I couldn't resist).


And it's good to see you back in the thread, hinch.

The PC is also hooked up to the TV so I can play/stream on the couch if I like. I'm single atm so nobody's around to use the TV while I'm trying to use the computer. The boxes contain some old documents like tax paperwork and such, my old collection of physical games/movies, and my PSVR2. My condo isn't very large so I have to be thrifty with space until I'm ready to upsize.

poor battery life, worse performance even compared to their predecessors... Core Ultra is shaping up so far to be ultra bad.

I will never stop being amazed at how small that door looks compared to the rest of your room (especially the chairs).
