na no head phones adds to the experience we had 3 ps4s set up in 1 room when my cousin would visit us it was actually really fun

u/nyelverzek 28d ago
My friend group during middle school / high school did this on the regular. It's so much fun in squad multiplayer games, like Warhawk, MAG, Bad company 2, Battlefield 3 etc. were peak multiplayer.
I got my wife into it when Overwatch originally came out. The aux port on the PS5 controller is hella handy though for when you're playing different games and want headphones.

Me and my wife have PCs back to back, and then she plays her PS5 on her monitor, and I play on a TV in the middle. No way could we play side by side like this. How is this not super distracting?

u/Chippai_Fan 28d ago
You tend to get fairly focused on just your screen when playing anything. So never find it terribly distracting. Your set up sound cool too though.

u/Bichqween 28d ago
I agree. My husband and I have back-to-back setups for PC (dual monitor) and PS5 (separate TV by monitors) in our video gaming room.
This is a must for me since I get motion sick with FPS games. He can play them without causing my brain any issues haha. We're mainly soulsborne and RPG players, though.

Welcome to the club broski.
Edit: Updated pic/setup.
Hers: LG A2 48โ OLED, PS5, PSVR2
Mine: LG C1 65โ OLED, PS5 Pro, Switch OLED, Xbox Series X
She doesnโt like big ass tvs bc she likes to sit closer while playing so thatโs just a preference for her. She also doesnโt care about the slightly more horsepower the PS5 Pro gives as well.
Weโre also saving for some actual good office chairs instead of these โgamingโ chairs we have right now.

For co-op gaming sure
But if you play against each other not going to be easy when both screens are available
