Is anyone out there still playing #Splitgate? #gaming

Over the years these are the dedicated video #gaming systems that impressed me the most.

- #NES: The transition from the #Atari #2600 to the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) was a significant step forward in the evolution of video games. One of the most notable improvements was the addition of more buttons on the NES controller, which allowed for more complex gameplay mechanics. This increased control also meant that games could have a greater degree of depth and variety. Moreover, the NES also boasted improved graphics, which allowed characters to be more detailed and expressive, thus enabling them to have distinct personalities. This advancement allowed for a greater degree of immersion in the games, making the transition from the simple, blocky visuals of the 2600 to the more detailed and nuanced world of the NES feel like a giant leap forward in gaming technology.

- #Wii: The Nintendo Wii was a groundbreaking console that revolutionized the gaming industry with its motion controls. The Wii introduced me to a whole new level of gaming experience where I could physically interact with games through hand and body movements. The intuitive and easy-to-use motion controls allowed players to immerse themselves fully in the game, making it more engaging and interactive. One of the biggest successes of the Wii was that it brought gaming to non-gamers, as the simple and accessible nature of the console made it easy for anyone to pick up and play.

- #Stadia: Stadia showed me that #cloudgaming is not only possible, but it's also the future of the gaming industry. With Stadia, I was able to play high-quality games on any device with a reliable internet connection, without having to worry about hardware limitations. The service was incredibly fast and responsive, and the graphics were stunning. This experience showed me that cloud gaming has the potential to change the way we play and access games, as it eliminates the need for expensive hardware upgrades and allows for gaming on any device, anywhere, anytime. Stadia may have failed as a service, but as a concept, it has set the standard for cloud gaming and has paved the way for the future of gaming.

- #Dreamcast: For me, the Dreamcast was a console that brought the #arcade experience into my home and changed the way I thought about gaming. As a kid, I was always mesmerized by the arcade games I played during family outings, but I never thought I could bring that experience home with me. That all changed when I got my hands on the Dreamcast.

What are some of your favourite systems / #consoles?

Can you spot the difference? One written by #SpaceKaren and another written by his legal team? #ElonMusk

@BadGamerDad my main issue so far has been borked screens. Other than that (keep in mind my screen doesn’t do 120FPS anyway!) it hasn’t been too bad an experience. The new maps and gun are pretty good, and the cinematic intro is great.

This is neat in #HaloInfinite Season 3. The player recap screens show you if you Outperformed or Underperformed in certain areas #gaming

@scrumble_eggs but what a life they had. Right?

This is not what I expected… but it is good I think. And for now buggy as hell! I hope it gets fixed soon.

@jq there’s zero hope of that. We need to get used to AI outperforming us on not just chess, but the written word too
