Hi everyone! I’m currently stuck on a dilemma and would love to hear what you guys would do in my situation.
I recently moved in with my girlfriend, and we both own an Xbox Series X. The thing is, she barely uses hers, so having two Xboxes feels pretty redundant. I’m considering selling mine and putting the money towards another gaming device.
For some context, my current setup is:
Gaming PC with an RTX 5070 — my main gaming platform by far
Steam Deck OLED
Xbox Series X
Gaming laptop with an RTX 3050 Ti
My girlfriend also has an Xbox Series X, which she barely uses
So I’m basically deciding between three options:
1. 1440p OLED monitor
I currently use a decent 1080p IPS monitor. It does the job, but with an RTX 5070 I feel like I’m leaving a lot on the table. A good 1440p OLED would be a pretty significant upgrade and would improve the experience of the platform I use the most.
2. PS5
I was a huge PlayStation kid growing up. I had a PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4, but switched to Xbox this generation. Eventually I ended up moving almost entirely to PC gaming and nowadays only use the xbox for 2 minor games.
I’ve been tempted to get back into the PlayStation ecosystem, especially with wolverine coming out soon. (Would be buying the limited wolverine ps5 edition) and as a huge Marvel fan, that’s definitely tempting.
3. Switch 2
This is probably the least interesting option for me.I already have a Steam Deck OLED, and never had any interest in nintendo games.
So what would you guys do? Upgrade your existing ecosystem or buy a new one to have more access to a expanded library of games
