Staying one console generation behind and buying used is the

Basically this. I had to roll like that in high school, but the issue now is some games have to be played with an online community, so you cant count on playing the online components. Otherwise it's fine, though you probably wont get to enjoy stronger modern specs for years

All the best PS4 and Xbone games are literally $20 at walmart. I can't imagine how cheap they must be in the used section at gamestop.

>the only correct way to do console gaming.
you mean the poorfag way

Well i brought a ps3 couple months back and i brought all the exclusive games for it, having good time playing wipeout hd fury and theres chumps on this board RIGHT NOW that are paying full price for the omega collection

>Fuck that
Unless you take online gaming seriously wait for emulation or dirt cheap hardware

This but for PC games too.

This is me. The disadvantage is that you feel kinda alienated when you guy to a place like 4chan when you are behind the times.

I had a black friend who had a similar problem.

only if you're a fellow SP only fag like myself or don't mind missing out on some online exclusive events/features.

because $5-10 for a single game / 3 games bundle on places like craigslist is a wallet saver.

Most online shit isn't even worth buying after their grace period.
SP and other stuff is literally timeless though so who cares when you play it.

>I will miss out on modern video games and online to save a few bucks
you do you bud

>>388503453
>yfw future games will altogether skip out on SP and will be primarily online/MP centric
>those games you enjoyed becomes unplayable as servers are shut down in the future.

i don't know if the idea is scary, or if i'm looking forward to it so i can stop caring and play through my backlogs without worrying about it growing.

Omega Collection is $30. It has a small online population, but it's there. It has Fury, HD, and 2048. 3 games. If you have a PS4 Pro it runs at native 4k and the HDR really sucks you into the picture. If you like video games why would you skimp? Go big, get the best.

Even PS2/Gamebox/Xbox is not considered retro by the board rules, though Dreamcast is.
