Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you’re submitting before posting to see if it’s already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
Don’t share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don’t want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

This is an outdated sort of meme. I think everyone pretty much agrees PlayStation is the one you want if you want quality games.

You sound like a gen z that doesn’t understand computers.
Basically nothing matters but form factor. Everything is a computer. Switch runs Linux. Steam deck runs Linux. I think ps runs Linux too. Xbox I think is a stripped down windows. Meh. All computers.
It’s all corporate bullshit. They could technically all run the same shit if it wasn’t for greedy corps.
PlayStation runs on FreeBSD, which is similar to Linux, but is not Linux.
Ps if you don’t want a PC. Pc if you don’t want to choose between exclusives, since they’ll come anyway. My gf has a PS5 and I think it’s the best console, but said console could run horizon at capped rates in pretty mode (and really stable!). Whilst my mismatch of pc parts could run it at high fps without making a noise (and occasionally made their faces look like they’re in need of an exorcist). She doesn’t care and just wants to game, I do care and like to tinker till perfection. Two entirely different viewpoints on gaming, but neither is better or worse. Hardware on either side has came to the point it all runs great
