    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    Raiders entire defense pose for a photo after an INT, down 24-0. It's all they've got left this season I guess. First Raider to catch a pass in the end zone in 3 games. edit: lol nevermind, ruled PI after review

    Farm Simulator

    What I didn't realize until I checked Logitech for sales yesterday (c'mon, z906 at an unrealistic ~$150 plz) is that they make this stuff: https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/products/farm.html

    Board Games

    Played some Arkham: Last Hour. It's nice to not hate how boring a game with the name Arkham ends up being (as is the cast with Elder Sign and the regular game). Also have played a couple games of Marvel Champions, and am enjoying that. Trying to rally support for giving Battlestar Galactica a...

    Civilization VI

    I just started playing recently and have had a lot of fun with the expansion. World Congress, flood plains, volcanoes... didn't think I'd like them as much as I did.

    The Mandalorian

    Felt like a forgettable away mission episode of Star Trek. I liked Gina in this, as the bar was pretty low after Deadpool. Also, 'we've made too much noise and have to move on' followed by 'leaving the kid here' seems like contradicting points. Enjoying the series, this was easily the...

    Yeah, Farming Simulator might actually make it on the list of games for our LAN this year, lol. Never played it though. Feel like I've gotten a dozen free copies of Tomb Raider at this point.

    Watchmen

    Could maybe have a second season centered on (new character like this season) and Night Owl (maybe Blake, maybe they have kid(s)?), fallout from however this season ends, or just another standalone from a particular time frame. But yeah, this has been great TV. Hope the final 3 are just as good.

    Grim Dawn

    Yeah, I fired up Wolcen and put a few hours into that this weekend. I liked Grim Dawn, but once I discovered trading and got all the gear I wanted (at the time) that was kinda it for me. I should give it another shot sometime soon.

    Frozen 2 (2019)

    Agreed, Into the Unknown is all I came away remembering having just seen this, literally was walking out of the theater humming 'Reindeer are Better Than people' from the first movie. The movie itself though I thought was solid (as expected), and the kids of course loved it.

    I thought it was Lando until I heard his name mentioned a couple times on a recap (....for episode 3)

    So Samurai Showdown is pretty flawless, with a competent setup it's a good game to include opening day. Responsive and clean at whatever resolution it's running. I play Destiny 2 at 1440p on a 34" Ultrawide, so there was already no way it could compare, and that looked as bad as expected. I've...

    Game Streaming Services - Stadia, Geforce Now, xCloud, PS Now

    The tech can work great, it's everything else that's the problem w/ Stadia. Hardware, features, library, the structure of the service, etc. I was able to manage my franchise and play a game of Madden (xCloud - from library) and Baseball (xCloud - from my console) at a friend's house this...

    Game Streaming Services - Stadia, Geforce Now, xCloud, PS Now

    Yeah, if it wasn't Google I'd be more concerned, but in the end I'm replacing a v1 Chromecast that tends to restart / lose connection more and more lately with an Ultra, and we'll see if any fun can be extracted from the rest. At launch it isn't there. Samurai Showdown is more or less it, as I...

    Game Streaming Services - Stadia, Geforce Now, xCloud, PS Now

    EA just partnered w/ MS on xCloud at XO19 last week, and they've been testing their own streaming solution - so sports games may always mostly be absent from Stadia (Madden is on xCloud in preview) depending on the terms of that partnership. I'm waiting for the news that will save this...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    Origin isn't going anywhere. EA games returning to Steam will still use Origin also it appears and EA isn't getting rid of their own storefront and their subscription services it supports.

    Watchmen

    Another good episode, lots of things moving along. Kinda wish the show was centered around Looking Glass rather than Sister NIght.

    That first lizard miniboss was what really got me better with parry combat rather than button mashing.

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    I do really miss the fun music games. We got a lot out of Fantasia on Xbox. We'd probably still be playing it if it had Rock Band-like support for it. I liked Audio Shield, until it lost Youtube Support. Haven't really gotten into Beat Saber or some of the other VR stuff due to where my rig...

    Getting one, but dont see why I'd keep the sub past the founder's deal yet. It isn't compatible with how I play games if there's no cross-buy or other reason to use the service, not planning on buying any AAA games or anything on it.
