      PlayStation 5 had the resume feature too and tbh I never bothered with it because the games would crash whenever I resumed, so if Sony removed that feature; I can understand why. Also I never bothered with the haptics, triggers or general vibration on the DualSense as when I first tried it with Astrobot, it felt awful. Xbox Series are great machines but for me it's all to do about video game quality and that's where PlayStation excels at more than anything. People tend to go where the games are at their highest quality not just in resolution or fidelity but in other areas such as story telling and gameplay. If it were hardware specific then of course I would pick PC over console anyday.

They're literally the kings. They were coined the shooter box for a reason and they have oodles of studio who make great rpgs. Getting two bangers from Obsidian in the same year with Avowed and Outer Worlds 2, Fable .... my guy that is gonna be some crazy stuff, South of midnight lookin cool, and then DOOM.

    The whole point of this was video was brought about by the ability to be able to play what you want, where you want, how you want and with who you want. Gamepass destroys the entry barrier and allows you to experience games you normally wouldn't be inclined to experience, be it due to price, genre, gameplay, story, friends etc.
    You now have the ability to try new things or even older things. Further strengthened by FPS Boost, AUTO HDR and quick resume. Cloud saves go with you and work automatically in the background. You can pick up where you left off on another device.
    The ecosystem on Xbox is miles better and encompasses different devices. You're not stuck to one device. Ultimately, it provides insane value and is very consumer friendly.

    Exactly!! I've been telling people for years, Quick Resume is an amazing feature that those Sony fans, truly do not understand. They scoff at it like it's not a big thing. Until one has experienced it, there's no turning back. I have been a multi-platform gamer for years. Quick Resume is like my top favorite thing about Xbox, along with the gamepad controller. Oh man. Dual Sense may be cool in its way, but I'll tell you one thing, that Dual Sense controller does hurt my hands after a hour or two of using it. Xbox controller feels so naturally good, and can use AA battery, rechargeable battery, or even the plug in play kit, and those last forever. Dual Sense controller doesn't last as long, and that's why many PS owners have to buy two PS controllers to swap around each gaming session.

    Download Skyrim and check out the texture overhauls, werewolf and vampire overhauls and massive amount of free mods that use external assets that Sony wouldn’t allow on PS4 and 5. They’re both great systems with plenty to keep someone happy and content. Both companies made great hardware this gen. I went with Xbox because of the backwards compatibility that allowed me to build my library from all of the Xbox consoles.

    I've always owned both and I've always gravitated towards my Xbox... I use my PlayStation just like I use my Nintendo switch,... Games I can't play nowhere else so I don't feel left out.
    But everything else just makes sense to play on my Xbox. The controller is better in my opinion, the service is light years better.

    Another benifit is free cloud saves and cross save so if you have a handheld pc you can play on console then continue on handheld pc.

    As someone who just likes gaming and tech alike having several retro consoles, a PS5, N Switch, series X and a gaming PC, I bid you welcome to the world of fun. I never understood any fanboyism (as a kid in the 80's, teen in the 90's, SEGA vs Nintendo, Atari vs C64, Amiga vs PC). Your wife is awesome to think about you in that way. I also started playing DA:O Ultimate on the series X during the pandemic, continued with DA2. Really loved that game. I'd suggest also playing the Awakening expansion and the DLC (in order) after that. Morrigan is my queen.
