Shalom brothers and sisters in spirit.
I've been a console player for years. Exactly xbox. I'm now considering suspend the next generation of the console and get me a pc. To upgrade my existing.
Now I do not want to give up the feeling of the console. By that I mean to play with a controller. On a TV on the couch. And collect successes.
Who has experiences? Does it work well? What do I have to consider when watching TV?
About steam are as far as I know also possible successes collecting it?
Yes, you can easily connect a controller to the PC and of course you can also connect your PC to the TV in the living room, that will not be a problem!
Yes, on Steam there are also successes, but others; So not the same as on the console.
On the PC, there are a number of games that are not on the console, the other way around. I have a PC assembled 2 months ago and since the switch never touched again. My genre is simulators or tycoons and there are many more on Steam or For the PC!
You can connect Xbox Controller as normal. Either with the cable or with a wireless adapter (costs about 10-20 euro).
In Steam, you can unlock achievements as normal as on the Xbox.
You can start Steam in Big Picture mode and then you have a console-friendly overlay. Optionally, you can also install SteamOS instead of Windows.
There are also Steam hardware that you can use for comfortable gambling on the couch. For example the Steam Link, which streams your PC to the TV.
The TV you need to pay attention to anything. HDMI input should he have, but otherwise everything is the same.
That's fine.
You can connect controllers via USB or Bluetooth to the PC.
You can also problehmlos connect a TV as a monitor or in addition to a normal PC monitor.
Some distribution platform for computer games, e.g. Steam, also offer a success system.
For the TV, you only have to make sure that your video card has an appropriate output and your TV has a corresponding input. Here is HDMI offers. The connection works then gensuso as with a DVD / Blu-ray player. HDMI cable into the PC and the other side into the TV. Then switch the TV to the correct HDMI input.
Yes, the greater choice is sometimes a reason.
Many Thanks!
With pleasure.
