They are nuts

That new gen shit is neat

Pretty much a gaming computer lol

But cant upgrade things as the years go on

Its basically a main stream steam machine that works

I kinda widh the steam machines would have taken off

I wont be surprised if consoles just become more like PCs with their own line of proprietary upgrades

Like the One to the One X, but you can upgrade parts

They are too greedy for that lol

I can see where the differences in generations of consoles will get more generstions of PC parts

An older system can play newer games, but theyll only get worse and eventually just unsupported

With how much streaming of games as a service is coming up i feel itd coincide a bit better...maybe

The game streaming looks good

Forreal. Even for me with very limited internet, id pay monthly like Netflix for just renting games.

Console companies purposely make their consoles non-upgradeable

Because the price would likely wash out to how we have it right now.

It would be neat to bring pc gaming to more homes like consoles

Streaming you can basically use any shitty pc

Ehhh, debateable.

For good streaming and gaming, you'll want a good PC

@Sparrow Console companies purposely make their consoles non-upgradeable.

planned obsolescence

It's so you always have to buy the next-gen console in order to play new games. More money that way.

Yup, that tradition is in large part due to the lightbulb corps.

Making lightbulbs that only last a certain amount of hours

N64 had the 256mb upgrade around the time Donkey Kong 64 came out. I remember having to upgrade it.

Maybe 128MB?

The ps2 had an upgraded WiFi chip

That allowed for you to be able to play online

The ps2 thing i had was a stand alone box

Cant remember how it connected tho

I believe it was actually inside the console. I can’t remember shit I was like 7 😂

PC gaming for all. I agree, but then you need internet for all. Guess ole Musky Poo is working on that one though. Government's got the five ghee on lock.

@Hopefully Heroic Starlink is already up

I seen it a few days ago, 60 satelites in a row

Its 30$ a month for 12 meg

I counted 31 satellites in a row laying in my hammock on 03/24/2020

Can confirm it was awesome and terrible

They have several options for speeds up too 100 meg i think

Its going live for beta in the north this year

I use PDANET to hide tether and run phone as modem. I live in sticks.

Well starlink may be a option
