Friend suffering from gaming addiction, it has ruined his life

[ScramFranklin]

I have an Xbox One and barely played much of anything since I bought it, shortly after it came out.

There's hardly any games for this thing and now the new xbox is out and I barely care.

Sad.

Yea it will take time to turn their rep around… but they have some great first party stuff out now. I think they are successfully turning the quality and content stuff around, but public opinion will take time (if ever)

The xone generation set them back big time

11 hours a day, how tf is that even possible.

probably leaves his ps5 on with the game running

I do this a lot on steam. Have like 1k hours clocked on a game but probs 200hrs of that is idle in the background.

I had a PlayStation before Xbox 360 and at the time 360 seemed like it was going to be great, and it was. I used to play games after work all of the time. When One came out it was kind of terrible with most online games, which I hate, and so I have played SOME games and really fell off gaming.

In addition, I don't like sword games, I like shooters, and nearly all of the campaign games on Xbox are set in ancient times. That or they are zombie games which I also dislike.

I can't justify buying a new one until they have a lot of games that are my style.

As of now, it seems like they don't even have many games for the new one.

We are living in weird times.

Yeah well that's probably because you have awful taste in video games and wouldn't know a good game if it fell on top of your head.

[JayJ350]

This guy better buy an Xbox since ABK is going to go through, Sony PlayStations are for losers, who actually enjoys their trash first party ? Not me.

For real. The OP is pretty much all you need to know about the Sonycels. Complete losers, addicted to crap games and a crap platform they're an e-warrior for. Sad!

Ahh interesting, but your taste is your taste. Here is their first party in order of reviews since new console launch, i think it’s a pretty large variety

Forza horizon 5
Ms flight simulator
Hifi rush
Psychonauts 2
Deathloop
Halo infinite
Penitent
Age of empire 2 definitive edition
Gears Tactics
Grounded
As dusk falls

[Kaliconic]

Tell him to start streaming on Twitch while he plays. He might as well give being a streamer a try if he's going to play 10+ hours a day.

Compare that to the list of PS5 exclusives that I actually care about:

Gran Turismo 7

Thanks Mr. Gates, but no, you are in denial, your games suck and you related on cheaply made storyless online shooters aimed at retards.

Face up to it.

"Muh 2deep4u cinematic adventures!"

Just LMAO @ calling that the be-all-end-all of gaming. Those games can't even hold my interest, paint-by-numbers design where all you do is go with the motions and follow on-screen QTE instructions. Talk about games aimed at retards.

Face up to it.

I wouldn't play any of those games.

They are retreads of games I played 20 years ago.

I played flight simulator around 1988 which is THIRTY FIVE YEARS AGO.

A lot of the other games posted look like cartoons, which I can't stand. Tom Clancy's Vegas characters had leather grain gloves in the graphics and I'm not playing some game that looks like a cartoon or worse CGI than from 1992.

Other games listed on top down games that SUCK compared to things like the Avatar series from the late 80s.

You are young and may not realize that you grew up in an age of cheap and boring games with little story and action.

I cannot deal with another Halo game. They are the SAME GAME FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS.

Oh yeah, because the oldest versions of Flight Simulator are totally comparable to the latest version.

It's hardly even a game, people use it for legit flight training.

You're an utter clown.

Lol what? I feel like I’m reading some sort of copypasta or meme. I’ve been gaming 26 years.

You make really broad brush assumptions and logic leaps. In a lot of your posts. This is a copypasta, right?

[JayJ350]

You make really big assumptions and logic leaps.

I honestly think Sonycels have gone crazy, they have totally lost it dude.

[bongowongo]

I dont know what's funnier here, Adlerian bringing his trolling posts over to this section or him triggering Jay because he said he didnt enjoy xbox 1 lmao .

Not enjoying x1 overall is super reasonable though lol

[Gryphonly]

Nothing you say or do will change him. Like all addicts they need to be the ones that want to change.

Retarded.

You are like a movie fanboi that defends crap because you have nothing better to do.

I'm not playing Halo Version 25 or watching Black Female Iron Man because I have better things to do with my time.

What did I say that's not true?

[PowerPal]

how the **** do you rack up so many hours so fast on games that aren't mmos

Lol, no you don't. We all know that's a blatant lie. You're here hating on Xbox and defending your precious Sony corporation because you literally have nothing better to do.

[TheAdlerian]

Read my post you f@cking moron.

I do not own any sony products and haven't owned any for over twenty years.

It's like you're just posting random sentences.

[blissful88]

This dude plays 4084 hours which is 11.2 hours per day, 7 days a week.

Cot dam how does someone even do that; sounds painful


JFL @ spending that time on a sports game

[JayJ350]

Well then, I guess like you're just an irate, irrational retard around here with garbage taste and opinions.

I can articulate my concerns and you cannot.

You jump to weird conclusions like a woman and then are corrected like one as well.

[FoilHat]

just tell him to become a twitch streamer OP

[TheAdlerian]

Halo 5 and Titanfall 1 alone make the Xbox one worth it, god tier online multiplayer games.

You have to be an absolute pony idiot to not appreciate the Xbox one for it's fantastic online games.

Xbox one came a couple years too early, Microsoft predicted the future too early, and Sony changed their cucked console last minute with the "this is how to trade" video. Look into it.

That's a bizarre comment.

Xbox One has been out for many years and playing two games is worth it?

No, it is not.

I played Titanfall but never played online because online games are a waste of time as you are not doing anything intellectual.

When playing a game you are figuring the game out how to advance and planning tactics. When you play online it's pure mindlessness and a waste of time.

That, in fact, is what this topic is about.

You aren't "Playing a game" if there's not "game" you are just doing nothing for hours on end.

[JayJ350]

You are less articulated than my 5 year old nephew, at least he doesn't say the kind of stupid chit that you do, and way to jump into misogyny as well. So way to be a perfect example of a loser.
