As a developer people seemed surprised I don't have some massive gaming rig at home but there's something about it that feels like work. I don't want to sit up and be fully alert - I did that all day at work I want 30 mins to veg out on a console jumping between Netflix and some quick multiplayer game with less hackers glitchin out on the game. It seems impressive what PS4 attempts to accomplish while you're playing a game and yet try and download a 40gig game and some how tip toe in the background not screwing up the gaming experience. I couldn't imaging trying to deal with cranking up the speed here and there while keeping the game experience playable in a online game. Chrome is slow? Close you're 50 tabs, want faster PS4 downloads, close your games/apps. Got it.

- cdevs 9y agoI know my comment came off as putting the article down but I always have praise for anyone on the hunt for issues of why Firefox does this or why PS4 does this. I shoot for 30 mins of game time but we all know how that turns into 2-3 hours when I ment to start some programming side project. Games are the devil.
