Advice on consoles

Every month, more cool games are launched, and every year brand new more powerful consoles come out. If you like to play the latest games with the best graphics, you also want to play on the newest console. Choose an PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. Do you want to play together and/or on the road? Then the Nintendo Switch is the best option for you.

Gamers from team PlayStation know exactly why they choose a PS5 over other consoles. The PS5 has exclusive games, like Spider-Man and Godfall. The PS5 is also the only console that has games in virtual reality available. The console also has haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. This way, you can feel what happens in-game. The PS5 also has 3D audio, so you can hear the direction of the sound.

Xbox has recently released the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. These consoles break all sorts of records compared to previous Microsoft consoles. The Xbox Series X is the most powerful console that can reach an 8K resolution an 120 fps refresh rate. The Series S is less powerful, but it's the smallest Xbox until now. Ideal for the gamer that plays Halo, but who doesn't have a lot of space in their gaming room.

Nowadays, you still game a lot together, but it often happens via the internet. The Nintendo Switch opts for a different approach, in which up to 4 players play with 1 Switch console. You do this at home on your big TV, but also on the train, during the break or just from your bed. With multiplayer successes like Super Smash Bros., and legendary games like Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the Switch is the console for the mobile, social gamer.

You can choose a console based on the games you want to play on it. But which console has the best games? Many popular franchises are available on multiple platforms. Are you a fan of FIFA, Battlefield, or Call of Duty? Every platform is suitable. It can never hurt to choose the same console as your friends. This way, you can play online together or against each other.

When you buy a new console, you also build up a new collection of games. The old game console will probably disappear under a layer of dust. This doesn't mean that this also happens with all your old games. There are consoles that are backwards compatible, making them able to play games from older game platforms without problems. You can play PlayStation 4 games on the PlayStation 5, and Xbox One games on the Xbox Series X, for example.
