I used to follow system wars. I used to love following which home console was performing the best and then hopping online and trolling the people who bought the console with the least support. I was a huge fan of the 360 when I was younger. It had a superior controller, awesome online play, and decent graphics. I was never a fan of Sony's consoles. I didn't like the controller layout, and the exclusives never appealed to me. I typically owned a Nintendo and a Microsoft console when I was a kid. I started with the N64, GameCube, 360, and I had an Xbox One.

I stopped following mainstream gaming not too long ago, to me, I just couldn't care less at this point. The Series X doesn't appeal to me at all as I've gotten older.

It would be interesting if Microsoft went the way of Sega and stopped producing home consoles. I still think they have the superior controller.



PS5 controller wins for me as I can use the base of my thumb / thumbpad to hit d-(up/down/right) without taking my thumb off the stick.


I never liked the analog stick layout. I think they're too close together.
