    I grew up with Xbox, so I'd have to say that I think @Crazylapras15! What's your choice?

    I've played PlayStation all my life so it has to be that for me :)

    That's interesting, how did you find your experience of the master system?

    I started with PS1 & PS2...then moved to Xbox 360 for online play with school mates in 2007.  Crossplay wasn't around back then.  Have since had an Xbox One and currently have an Xbox Series X.

    You've switched sides @OverlyAnxious :D Do you tend to use crossplay these days?

    Much like @Ross_Scope I've been gaming on Playstation from the start, although I did dabble with PC gaming in the beginning, I found using a controller more comfortable than a keyboard and mouse :)

    What’s crossplay? I’m guessing from the sound of it it means the ability to play with someone on a different platform.

    I have never owned one because it isn’t really my thing but my good friend plays PS5 and he said he wouldn’t ever go to Xbox!

    I did indeed, peer pressure haha!!  I lost touch with those mates within a year or so after high school unfortunately (over a decade ago now) so don't play with them any more. 

    I still play mutliplayer games, but don't use comms & can't hear anyone else so it's like playing a single player game.  I can see that generally there are people in each game using alternative platforms though.  :)

    I also briefly tried PC gaming but preferred the feel of a controller.

    Afternoon Gamers,

    I have been a Playstation fan since the beginning and I have recently acquired a PS4 :-).

    I could have stitched and bought a PS5 but I am aware that they are hard to come by at the moment.

    Hey @csno01, great to see you posting :) 

    Awesome to hear you've got a PS4, as you say PS5s are quite difficult to get hold of, not to mention pricey, so a PS4 is a good alternative. 

    How are you finding it so far? What games have you played lately?

    Hi @Ross_Scope,

    so far I have played uncharted four and God of war. Both of which are very good.
    I am pleased with it although for various reasons,  I think the build of the PS3 is better. 
    Do you have a console?

    Hi @csno01

    Great choices there, the Uncharted series are amongst my favourite games. have you played the other Uncharted games before?

    For what reasons do you think the PS3's build is better? I'm curious :) 

    Yes, I have a PS3 still, and a PS5 which I'm very lucky to have.

    Thank You Ross. 

    I have yes although only the first one: drakes fortune. I understand this series has been made into a film.
    Design, Build and the connections are more secure.
    The snes was a great console @emancherry33I have never played the xbox. Glad you enjoy.

    Hi @csno01 glad to hear you've been enjoying some gaming, I'd say I've been playing on Playstation from a young age too, and I'm definitely looking forward to continuing the God of War story with Ragnarok in November!

    Did you manage to battle any of the Valkyries in God of War? :)
