Has online chess rekindled your love for video games?
Sort:
I have found this to be true! I wonder if others feel the same way?
curious; i got into chess to ween myself off video games little mac
I thought I was getting too old for my PS4 and all the other stuff I buy, but I have noticed that I am building my interest again!
no
exactly the opposite; the more interested in chess that I am - the more video games Don't appeal to me
there's no time for the schizophrenic skilless button pushing of the average video game.
Well, it prompted me to brush the dust off of my XBOX One and purchase Chess Ultra. So now I play chess on XBOX One. I don't recommend Chess Ultra though. The interface menu system is beautiful. The venues you can play along with the board/piece customizations are also beautiful. The opportunity for cross-platform play are great. The downsides are that there's no 2D view and it's hard to see the pieces. And the time doesn't show up on the screen.
The puzzle section though is the hardest I've experienced. I am struggling through the Mate in 2 and Mate in 3 puzzles.
