See? That's the point! We gamers are the same! To the hell with the gender! The gender doesn't make a difference as long as you love video games.

Reminds me of 11 year old murtaza12 making threads in the CCC.

OP seems like a troll, IMO, there is no such thing as a Pakistani girl gamer, never has been, probably never will be.
I know 2 girls who are avid gamer .. but woh mujh se baat ae nai krtin :'(

Oh wow, this is so offensive. You need a proof mate?
nah, I'm good. You've been offended by one post. That's all the proof needed.

You don't even know the struggles of being a girl and walking into those weird Pakistani shops to buy video games. I have to get my dad to accompany me whenever I go and buy video games because I get all the judgemental looks from the creeps who sell video games.
Firstly, online shopping? Ever heard of it?

Second, there's this girl in my school, she games on PS4 as well, and also buys her games locally, she gets even more 'judgemental' looks because she's Korean.
She joined our PSN party once and said she got used to them and started ignoring it.

There are numerous of girl gamers and you are just one of those creepy stereotypes who don't think twice of what they're saying.
Okay, what?
Never been called that before so idk what you're on about. But while you get to the task of selling your PS4, get yourself an English lesson as well.

GROW THE DAMN UP! IT'S THE 21st CENTURY! GIRLS FIGHT IN THE ARMY, THEY RIDE MOTORBIKES AND THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES!
When did I even bring up rights?

Okay, I probably overreacted because damn it, I'm sleepy. I have been deprived of a proper sleep since two days. By the way, my English is perfectly fine. I mean, I lived in Edinburgh for three years of my life. But yeah, when I lose my crap, my grammar becomes all 'destructive' too [emoji23]
Oh well, I apologise.

I also happen to have Xbox and PS-4. But the last time i played either was 6 months ago. Somehow I have never been a console gamer. PC gaming all the way for me at least.
I would recommend to sell your PS-4 to a shop. If it is new, many shopkeepers will buy it for 3-5 thousand less and repack and sell them as new. Totally normal in Pakistan.

No need to apologise, just constructive (read: slightly rude) criticism on my part.
Hence me having to be the one apologising.

Enjoy gaming and try out online shopping to avoid judgemental looks and creepy shopkeepers 😂

*going through all the comments since i last left them*


o_O

What the hell happened here...

Listen folks - it doesn't matter if OP is a girl or a guy. they're here to ask for our advice. Give it to them as you would give to all other members. Rest, leave the gender portion to OP.

... on a second thought... this is pretty much how all PG threads end up LOL!

*shakes head*


Anyway @Miss Kenway - there are a lot of folks here who will gladly help you out from the goodness of their heart. No need to feel left out. But also, you need to stop going to shop keepers. They are horrible people who don't know what they're selling. Buy your games from the PG Market Place. I may sound like I'm marketing for Pakgamers but believe me, I don't get paid for it (@Jshak - wouldn't mind if I do :D).

Where as PC is concerned, as Pakgamer's favorite Chicken said ( @GloriousChicken), put your money on the PC and forget the Xbox one.

From a person who owns the PC and both consoles, I can tell you it will sit idle just like your PS4 does. See the response from other members as well. We all feel the same about this gen consoles.

But... if you invest your money on the PC instead, it will open up a HUGE list of games for you. Plus you can play Xbox 'play anywhere' titles with your friends, even if they are gaming on the XB1. I do this with Forza Horizon 3 all the time.

If you want, you can provide the specs of your current PC [not laptop] here and good folks at Pakgamers can recommend some parts to upgrade within your budget. And don't worry about the virus, that will be taken care of as well.



But then again, if your heart is truly set on the Xbox 1, then by all means pick it up. It'd suck if you start another thread here in a couple of months saying that people at Pakgamers forced you to buy the PC and now it's sitting idle :p


EDIT: P.S. no need to lose your grades to show you're a gamer. That's not a smart or a wise decision. The only person who will lose in this is you. Focus on your studies - video games aren't going anywhere...

Donno i m lost!!
Thanks for all the advices guys! But selling a console isn't that easy. Everyone seems to be bargaining and my parents kinda have trust issues, but I'll see. I can talk to them and sell it. (I even have 3 new PS4 video games...)
i wouldn't mind trading my XB1 (and some games) with ur PS4+games at no additional cost

Oi lads and bruhs.

Its not right to derail the discussion into what gender has more right or what gender plays or doesnt play sort of topic.

Would prefer if ya'll just get rid of this mindset and learn to overlook these things.

i was wondering when this thread would erupt and looks like i missed it.....damnit.

I dont see the reason why this thread should continue, waste of time IMO. I hope a mod closes it ASAP.

P.S.

welcome to PG @Miss Kenway
