       Can someone explain what the different xboxes are or should I take the fact that I can’t understand the difference to mean that I’m too old to game

       @nuttgodd I’m pretty sure I don’t need an X but do I need an S?

       @stunt_bird I believe the X is the 4K one which only matters if you have a 4K television, and as far as I know the S would be a better choice because it won't be a colossal piece of shit like the plain one is

       @stunt_bird @nuttgodd the X is the one that is for gaming on 4K televisions, the S is the regular one, the no-suffix Xbox One is discontinued now but is basically equivalent to the S

       @stunt_bird ah I just checked it, the X does "real" 4K while the S is able to upscale 1080p to look like it's 4K

       @jimpjorps @nuttgodd ok cool so I should buy the S, if any. Now, better question, and I’ve been working on this for like 20 years with no solid answer: are video games actually fun?

       @stunt_bird @jimpjorps don't listen to them. buy a Switch, it has a billion more fun games than either the xbone or the ps4, and most of the fun games from xbone and ps4 are available on a midrange pc

       @nuttgodd @jimpjorps I was considering just getting a PC instead because I need something better for music production anyway but I’ll regret this when Skate 4 comes out

       @stunt_bird @jimpjorps @nuttgodd the classic dilemma: buy an xbox and one game, or pull the lever to buy a ps4 with a bunch of fun games

       @nuttgodd @jimpjorps also I have kids so most of my gaming is at like 8 PM when I am fully exhausted so I think it needs to be couch-based

       @stunt_bird @jimpjorps the switch is a reaaaally good idea if that's what you're looking for but it of course depends on the games you want to play

       @nuttgodd @realtoddhoward @stunt_bird @jimpjorps Uncharted 4 is good though. But I readily admit I can't think of too many PS4 exclusives I lose my shit over. Get a Switch.

       @stunt_bird @firescotch @jimpjorps @nuttgodd if your a noob? decide between a ps4 and an xbox. the S and X and shit are all irrelevant ways to charge for a minimal hardware upgrade and no exclusive games to justify them

       @stunt_bird  basically, the Switch has some of Nintendo's finest games in years. Its portability is fucking amazing, even if you aren't out very much. I carry it around my house all the time, and connect it to my TV when I have friends over or want a huge screen. It's really solid
