  The Xbox Series X the ultimate “Game Pass Machine” just makes more sense right now. -Runs whisper quiet. No jet engine whine while you’re trying to game or chill. -Stays cool under pressure with far fewer overheating issues. -Disc drive included. -Stronger firstparty momentum and a rapidly improving lineup. -Game Pass is the undisputed king of subscriptions: day one releases, massive library, PC + console, and better overall value for most players. -Committed to physical games long term unlike PlayStation, which is ending production of new physical discs in January 2028 and pushing everything to digital codes. -quick resume -dynamic backgrounds/themes -point/rewards system -looking for group -backwards compatibility -cloud gaming -Microsoft isn’t actively trying to kill the used/physical market like Sony’s direction suggests(PlayStation x Crunchyroll) At this point the main reasons left to grab a PlayStation is to play Spider Man or ride the remaining hype wave. But that wave has been slowing for a while. especially with Xbox gaining serious sales momentum in key markets and delivering better ongoing value. Next gen will be an entirely different ball game. Where tradition and anti consumerism fall too pro consumerism and innovation.

  @Crunchyroll treating your customers the way you do is a joke and deserving of a lawsuit there’s no chance WE pay your **** *** company our hard earned money just for a product that does not work, is not worked on, and receives no updates when **** does go wrong. It’s pathetic.

I might even work on fixing all my cords in the ManCave. My PS2 is calling my name... I also plan on being active on X today. I'll be replying to all the Phils, Lils, and Bills. More importantly, the Sony Shills. ------------- Before I forget, here is a special message for our readers: Daily Reminder on How to Fight Sony PlayStation with your wallet and voice: KEEP HARASSING PLAYSTATION ON X- Keep the community notes coming! People need to be warned if the dangers of an all digital future! Continue to remind SONY that we want PHYSICAL GAMES!!!! CANCEL PlayStation Plus CANCEL CRUNCHYROLL - owned by Sony and they are trying to limit the physical release of anime! DON'T BUY GTA6- why waste $100 on an empty box? NO MORE DIGITAL or NEW PLAYSTATION GAMES - support your local used game store and buy used physical & retro!!! UNTIL Sony reverses course, our PlayStation 5s are closed for business.

  @ChibiReviews I always wonder why Crunchyroll has deliberately bad subtitles. What is the purpose? Who does it help? These aren’t even woke they’re just bad

  Physical. I have a right as a consumer to own what I purchase. If Corporations like Sony eliminate my ability to own my media be it games or anime (crunchyroll) then that should be grounds for a lawsuit. I remember when you could go to the store, got the Blu-Ray, DVD, AND Digital code all for $60 in a BUNDLE. Now look where we are. All sold seperately, or not at all. Subscription only. Digital ownership is NOT ownership. It is simple a corporation giving you permission to watch it on their servers. WAKE UP! Support physicial media while we still can!

  @Crunchyroll, I will never pay for your service again. This isn't a demonstration; this isn't a threat; and this isn't an abrupt decision. This is the result of your corporate structure and decisionmaking constantly pushing against your supporting base— your consumers. At every turn, you have undermined the very audience you were supposed to be catering to. Once a pirating site, you now remind people of the days when you used to be useful for the same reasons. My decision to never support you again, despite being a frequent user of your service, is a reflection of how you've failed your core audience. It is a result of countlessly flawed decisions on your part. You have been selling user data, destroying translation veracity, settling for inauthentic fan subs, delisting major series, making users pay an entrance fee to use your half-baked web store, and are now even destroying hopes of collecting the anime films, series, and OVAs that mean so much to us. If you were interested in maintaining a supportive, encouraged consumer base and benefitting your own corporate structure, you would see that me leaving your site demonstrates a total, one-sided failure on your part and your part alone. I would love to have a go-to anime service with a full library and a convenient place to access the media in preferred formats, but your service has outgrown its usefulness now. Why should I pay for a service that won't even properly maintain the sole product it markets? I am never paying for your service again because your service has failed to provide what it should have provided and has promised to provide. This is a business failure that couldn't be any more clearly straightforward. Your company has failed to meet the sole requirement of any business: to properly provide for a consumer's need. If you ever want business in the future, put your consumers first by treating them with respect and caring for the beloved stories you're handling. If this reads as anything else than a collected wake-up-call expressly pointing you to the sole way of fixing your issues, than your corporate model will never succeed. If you can't figure out why people like me are dumping you aside, you'll fade into obscurity.

  The video quality is better than Crunchyroll (expected). I just need to check if I can find a subtitles file. VLC player supports the audio format for me.

  @_ToastedBrioche Understanding doesn't mean you like it. PS Plus is 100% temporary. But people have 100% complained when Netflix loses a show. That's why they've invested in buying so much content outright and making original anime, shows and movies. Gamepass same thing as PS Plus outside of 1st party games you know you have a few months at best. Crunchyroll gave no warning and their entire platform is anime. Now the problem is what people do when this does happen. The industry wants you to pay for anime. But this and missing seasons is why so many prefer underground anime sites. That or you start compiling anime on your own personal server or buying Blu-rays. Anime has a huge fragmentation issue.

  @LucasGnagy @mantis_bunny You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about. The Switch 1 did have a browser, just no dedicated browser app. Apps like YouTube, Crunchyroll, etc. just opened an embedded browser to their websites. Please go do some actual research as to how these systems work

  @ChibiReviews I never watched that anime. Regardless crunchyroll doesn't look like to be changing course anytime soon, imo. It shouldn't be supported. It is a terrible platform. Terrible service to consume anime. Not good.

  @onepirateking1 The thing that gets me is that Crunchyroll was the worst anime piracy site, because they charged a subscription just to watch in 360p. Meanwhile you could get better quality 74 mb RMVBs and even 1080p downloads from Da-Anime for free.

  @autopilotgod And I do think it's a rarity when you got a platform that doesn't promote crap that butchers everything it touches Plus Crunchyroll has the worst track record known to mankind. It's funny how you treat my words like gospel but truthfully I'm a nobody. 😐

  Honestly, i think I'll fix my tv situation by just buying a monitor. Saw a nice-looking one at Walmart today while paying for Cosmic Shake -I only really use Youtube and Crunchyroll, and i can just use my PS5 or a roku stick for that -Cheaper than a tv -Easier to move around

  Good Morning, X! Another day of wine and roses... What are your plots? Your plans? Your plunderings for today? Happy Monday, Gang! It's that time again, work and trolling PlayStation! Work is going very well, and sonia the trolling, hahaha. Hopefully, I have some time today to play more N64 games (on an actual N64) and Final Fantasy X in my Switch 2. I'm addicted to both! Been playing a lot of Smash Bros classic and Rogue Squadron. Rogue Squadron still looks and plays great! The ship details are still fantastic. Oh, before I forget: ---------NoDiscNoBuyALERT----------- How to fight SONY: SUPPORT #PSBlackout ! - No SONY purchases, log ins, or play sessions on any of their platforms starting Aug 23rd - 30th. You can start closing your wallet now! LFG! KEEP HARASSING PLAYSTATION ON X- Keep the community notes coming! People need to be warned of the dangers of an all digital future! Continue to remind SONY that we want PHYSICAL GAMES!!!! CANCEL PlayStation Plus CANCEL CRUNCHYROLL - owned by Sony and they are trying to limit the physical release of anime! DON'T BUY GTA6- why waste $100 on an empty box? DON'T see SONY films in theaters - Sorry Spider-Man and Resident Evil, I'm not seeing you in theaters or buying you new/digitally. Used physical or not at all for me. NO MORE DIGITAL or NEW PLAYSTATION GAMES - support your local used game store and buy used physical & retro!!! UNTIL Sony reverses course, our PlayStation 5s are closed for business. NO DISC 💿 NO BUY, MAKE SONY CRY ***This is not a purity test, only a guide on how to fight back. I can only control my wallet, and it's closed to SONY. At the end of the day, you do you and do what makes you and your family happy*** I'll be your voice in this battle, it will be an honor.

  @peacecommander2 There’s the fact you clearly didn’t understand what I just explained, and then there’s the fact you cannot prove these supposed bots even exist. “A bot costs $10” is not evidence that Re0 fans actually bought any but is just an accusation you invented because the numbers clearly upset you, also crunchyroll likes are one isolated metric on a platform that has repeatedly mishandled Re:Zero through subtitle problems, translation errors, licensing issues and the AI subtitle controversy. A lot of Re:Zero fans simply watch it elsewhere (and even reaction channels that usually only watch Anime on CR watch Re:zero on fan translated episode or Muse Asia for that vert reason) so there is no reason to expect Crunchyroll engagement to perfectly represent the whole fanbase. Re0 tho is ahead across virtually every broader popularity metric people actuall use (even in Japan using Abema, Re:zero blows MT off the surface) and it has won five Crunchyroll Anime Awards while Mushoku Tensei has won none. Those awards are also decided through fan engagement so apparently Crunchyroll users are legitimate when they like an episode but suddenly unreliable when they vote for Re0. You have no evidence of bots, you ignored the platform specific explanation and you dismissed every metric that favors Re0 but are clinging to the one that favors Mushoku Tensei. You’re just coping gang, let it go.
