I've got a 32" 1080p LG as my current monitor. Recently upgrade my regular TV, shifted my old TV to my workout room, and shifted my old 40" 1440p Vizio to my computer, but I could never get the picture right. The darks were too dark and increasing the brightness just made everything hazy. Messed around with a bunch of other advanced display settings, but I couldn't get it right, so I went back to the LG. I think at a certain point, monitors are just better for computer displays.

I'm sure they would if they could, but they might be hard-pressed to do so.

I quit buying gaming systems after Xbox 360. About 8 months back an associate of mine offered my wife and i a great deal on an Xbox One and I still said no. He ended up just giving it to us about a month back because he never could sell it.

I'm pissed I even spent $20 on older used games at Game Stop. Most games have seemingly been nerfed to hell in the name of getting people to either pay to play online, or half the in-game content is paid DLC. Co-op FPS campaigns hardly exist. Everything seems to be geared toward emptying customer wallets.

Games just aren't really that fun anymore.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I agree with your 2nd statement, but can't agree with your first one. There are better games with better writing and character development like last of us and God of war for example.

It was the ending which saved the game for me to be honest, otherwise I was very irritated by the slowness of the game.

But then what other comments have made me realize is that everyone has different tastes for games, and what might be best for others, may not be the same for me and vice versa.

Have a great day!

It's really easy as long as you have two inputs on your computer or a docking station with multiple inputs. All you have to do is plug them up and change your desktop display settings. I could describe it, but you'd be better off Googling it so you can see images. I've got my laptop screen and two other monitors at work.

Yeah, games are just too long these days in my opinion. I was having such a good time with Spider-Man, knocking every little thing off the map and then I finally got to some late game thing where it added like 30 more points of interest to my map and I was just like no fucking way, I turned it off and haven't touched it since.

I have heard so much about RDR2 that I gave it a second chance. And after finishing the game, I didn't feel like I played one of the best games, hence the post. With the hope that someone would come along and show me what I missed in the game.

And I'm glad you posted this long message. Just shows that not everybody has the same taste, and it's ok for me to not feel greatly about the game.
