A co-worker asked me to recommend him some games. I asked which platform he plays on and he said "Now you're gonna laugh because I'm old school, but 360." We have the same job so I know he could have bought a xbone or ps4 on primeday. It seems like he is actually content with his 360

Are there advantages to holding out on new consoles? are people that play games one generation behind "old school" or just poorfags?

I got my first PS2 in 2006, I really enjoyed having all of those good games available for free the day I got it.

it was just one gen back. and a good gen to hold out on since it can't be emulated yet. whole huge giant fucking library between it and everything you can play on a pc, or emulate on your phone or something

not really caring about newer stuff and not making video games a priority for recreation, or impulse buying stuff you really need, is probably alright

Kill me.

Why would you upgrade? What games do these new systems offer?

no they are smart. 7th gen games go for literal pennies now. hell, when 6th gen was relevant saturn games were cheap as fuck. its even more smart to be a gen behind now because more games are doing the "goty edition" thing where they include all the dlc and shit for free.

Tell him to get a better job than cooking in that kitchen first of all.
Then recommend him anything that plays in first person since that's all he'll ever care about.

This
I mostly been buying and playing 6th and 7th games this summer.
>>
>>384503067
That really only works for single player games. If you care about online multiplayer you're missing out unless the publisher hasn't shut down its servers yet and the game was popular enough to maintain an active online community.

Good taste

I've never had a 360, but there's JSFR and that Naruto game Rise of a Ninja iirc that was pretty good tho. Also this>>384501942
>>
>>384499417
the 360 is 12 years old so...yeah it's "old school". i mean if SNES was considered old school during ps2 era then why not?
>>
>>384499417
it's best possible time to get into 7th gen gaming. >Consoles are dirt cheap
>All of the best games have already been made
>games are dirt cheap
>Literally thousands of hours of entertainment for a fraction of the cost of a Ps4/Xbox one/PC/Switch and a couple of full price AAA games.
>>
>>384503863
yeah, this is also true. you seriously missed out if you werent around during the first 5 years of the 360
>>
>>384499417
I hope you recomended every Cave shmup.
Btw, I only play on my ps2 or emulate older consoles. Feels good.
>>
>>384499417
If you really like a game, and i mean REALLY like it, and its not backwards compatible on teh new platform, I can see merits. Maybe your coworker just REALLY likes himself some Halo 3
>>
>>384503818
Same. I've waiting for all this years PS4 releases to go down in price so I'm working through my backlog of 6th and 7th gen games. I've bought so fucking many. They're so cheap.

>only wanted to play P5 and MGSV and future tone on PS4
>P5 gets PS3 release
>MGSV gets PS3 release

Now I have no reason at all to get a PS4 unless future tone DX comes stateside.
Maybe I'll pick one up next gen.
I also wanna build a controller for project diva.
