Out of a sense of (non)professional obligation to some idealized version of a culture critic, I make sure I have (almost) all the consoles and play the major games on them

I honestly don't understand this mentality, though I see it an awful lot among games enthusiasts. Isn't it a bit like buying all the "right" books, but only reading the first chapter of each? What exactly is that accomplishing, besides keeping the publishing industry in business? Maybe I just answered my own question. :(

in my case it's a matter of not turning into one of those gamer dad jerks who just push nintendo because "they can play it with their kids." I want to have a broad knowledge of the state of games the same way I used to want to have it for movies, which lead me to see a lot of stuff I wouldn't have otherwise

this round of consoles all the interesting looking shit is also coming on pc though so
