@PixelDragon Welcome! It’s a great community here, for the most part, and if you love gaming then it’s an awesome place to spend time. Not to mention lots of discussion about other types of hobbies and interests too.
Everything is filtered through a PlayStation-first lens, but a lot of the community is heavily into the other platforms too. Some are even console agnostic or even primary Xbox or Nintendo players but still prefer to engage here because the users tend to be really affable and insightful. Still, if you want the alternative viewpoints and deeper dives into the other ecosystems the sister sites for the other two gaming systems are fairly active, especially Nintendo Life, and your same log in account can be used on those sites as well.
But like you mentioned, there’s plenty of discussion about Xbox and Switch on their respective threads on here too, as well as scattered throughout other topics too.
If you’ve not noticed already, the comment sections of the main site’s articles can still be a bit of a minefield at times with some of the typical console war fodder, so don’t let that deter you. There’s some clowns over there that get carried away from time to time, but here in the forums is quite a different and more reasonable vibe. Both areas are heavily moderated through so there’s probably more order kept than in a lot the wild areas of the internet.
I hope you find Push Square enhances your enjoyment of gaming and other life pursuits; I know it has for me!

@PixelDragon Welcome and it has gone very click baity on that other site, it won't end well for them I think. Very sad.
Anyhoo Your username &a avatar reminded me of the old Dragon 32, for some strange reason. If you don't know what the hell im talking about then never mind.
And I agree that the comment section is a pain to navigate. Luckily most of the comments on news articles aren't worth your time anyway, so maybe it's a good thing!
As @Th3solution said, the general bias is obviously Playstation-centric, but some of us game primarily on other platforms and still have lovely discussions on here. It's one of the few gaming-centric communities left on the internet where I feel like the dominant tone isn't one of tribalism and overwhelming negativity.
@PixelDragon Welcome friend, glad to have you around. I lurk on eurogamer but never felt compelled to join for some reason. This is a lovely warm corner of the internet 👍
@PixelDragon Welcome! Hope you have a good time here!
I think you’ll find that the forum users are a bit more platform agnostic here.

Hi there,
I've been a long time PS fanboi and a very long lurker. Had some downtime & decided to make an account today Hope to contribute and become a part of the community. Mostly play console games but occasionally hop on the PC.

The Nintendo consoles are a bit of a blind spot for me as the only ones I ever owned have been the Gameboy/Colour and Wii. And I probably used the latter for the virtual console more than anything else.
