A Comparison of Prices Across All Major Gaming Consoles.

The problem for the Switch 2 for me isn’t the price of the console, it’s how it is monetized. They are charging $99 for another pair of joy con which are likely to drift in a couple of years. They charge $90 for a pro controller. They charge to use a built in game chat feature (only took them 20 yea

Tips for Strive ON Switch 2

Now to answer your questions: How does Strive feel to play on Switch? Cut content and ambiguous future aside, it's shockingly snappy for a resource-intensive fighter like Guilty Gear post-Xrd; even with rollback netcode (side note: the lack of it explains why Smash Ultimate's online feels the way it

What should I do? This just came off in my bag and it doesn’t go back on and the controller won’t work.

Controller Upgrade!!!

Legendary....huh? Is this revisionist history? You do know or remember that Nintendo is the only company to face a class action lawsuit because of their Joy-con stick drift issues, right? The materials they use are fragile and more prone to stick drift than the Dualsense and Xbox. They wouldnt even

Sony and Xbox don't do this to the same extend and valve does quite the opposite with the deck. I hope you reali
