15% off at Gamersgate so figure I'd pick it up ... only to be put on a hold of up to 24 hours (likely because it's my first order there in 3 years). #winning.

tbh was hoping that applied to rep too. I don't mind grinding levels.

Seems like BC requires an effort on Sony's part? https://blog.us.playstation.com/2020/03/18/unveiling-new-details-of-playstation-5-hardware-technical-specs/ Lastly, we’re excited to confirm that the backwards compatibility features are working well. We recently took a look at the top 100 PS4...

More meat on the bone in the digital foundry article - Inside PlayStation 5: the specs and the tech that deliver Sony's next-gen vision

Yeah, the generic slot is pretty fantastic news. It's too bad the industry can't adopt a standard nvme cartridge for multipurpose use (expandable storage, maybe game delivery once economies of scale allow it).

PS5 via Digital Foundry: CPU: 8x Zen 2 Cores at 3.5GHz (variable frequency) GPU: 10.28 TFLOPs, 36 CUs at 2.23GHz RDNA 2 RAM: 16GB GDDR6/256-bit Storage: Custom 825GB SSD Optical Drive: 4K UHD Blu-ray Drive Expandable Storage: NVMe SSD Slot Also, this is really strange w/ the fake crowd bit.

That was a lot of kinda fun world building. I fully expect it to devolve into contrived plot in no time, but in may ways this would have been nice even as a first episode of the series, rather than season 3, with a handful of exceptions. Hopefully this season goes better than last.

I've been playing LBG but spent some time putting together a Shara sticky hbg build together last night. It's all fun and games learning a new weapon in a 4-monster arena mission until you disconnect and get to fight the final 2 monsters solo. On the last I finally figured out how to block...

Yeah, I didn't make it through episode 4, but watched the final 2 and they were good.

The types of games 2k describes in their release have existed this whole time... on mobile. Some with 10+ million installs. Little to be excited about with this announcement unfortunately, expecting an Ultimate Team or mobile-style game built to drive VC sales like what's happened with NBA2k...

I kinda wonder sometimes if Boeing might just cancel this.

https://mspoweruser.com/epic-games-geforce-now/ [Tim Sweeney] also said that he believes that GeForce NOW is the “most developer-friendly and publisher-friendly of the major streaming services, with zero tax on game revenue. Game companies who want to move the game industry towards a healthier...

Final launch of Dragon 1 a success. https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2020/03/spacex-final-dragon-1-mission-iss/

You're not wrong, just not a good example. Madden for example the primary franchise mode is on EA's servers, as are good chunks of modes for many games. If subscriptions get me the most value, I'm in. Steam's a bit too big to fail so I don't expect it to go anywhere, and as a result it'll take...

I joined a pug last night, i dont know how 4 noobs would have gotten out of where we were. We only made time with some expertly placed grapple lines and stuff, lol.

I've got like 1500 games on Steam, i'd abandon that for all future purchases if a group of stores were able to pull off a 'games everywhere' a la movies anywhere. Until then, Steam it is. I expect at some point my individually purchased library will mean much less to me relative to a handful...

Whenever I notice you playing something different I wonder when the thread is going to be created / updated. Not saying that's a bad thing, haha. Been meaning to give this a shot for a while, think the $29 initially kept me away.

Yeah, looking forward to giving this a shot tonight.

Best available is probably the a Vive Cosmos w/ external tracking or the Valve Index. Plenty of satisfactory options though, a lot of 1st gen Vives for as low as $300 on Facebook's marketplace, some with extra accessories. We nearly bought an entire second Vive kit just because it came w/ the...

Yeah, this feels like it should have been a 2 hour docu-drama, the first couple episodes were great. Some of these interviews would have made good extra content, rather than pulled apart and turned into entire episodes.

Would have been able to re-sell digital games several years ago, but then everyone lost their minds and we ended up with always online consoles anyways minus the point of sale infrastructure and an ecosystem that would have permitted it.

They've been like this for like a year and a half here in Vegas, at least.

It likely was never going to fly, they're already building the next one (or two). This one was going to maybe static fire at most.

Boom. A recap of stuff that's going on (published a earlier today before the boom above)

'like D:OS2 but better after everything we've learned' is the last I read about this.

Playing it right now:

More on the educational side, but I really enjoyed the first version of this.

We get back to this when the bandwidth cap situation improves and the kid brings his streaming game library over to a friend's house.

Bad week for Gamestop, w/ Xbox Smart Delivery / CDPR shoveling dirt on the grave of their used game business model. Sony surely with something similar in the works. This model is going to reduce trade-ins (especially mass trade-ins coinciding w/ new console cycle) and drive collecting/loyalty...

Kingdom Hearts 3 available today. A hit about when Yakuza will be available:

February update rolling out, featuring revised home UI: More details here: February 2020 Xbox One Update Introduces New Home Interface and More - Xbox Wire Also, games with gold for the month:

I'd even split the difference and take a fee of some kind for games I own to be made available on other platforms. The capability is what I want, it'll make sense economically in time.

Seen at least one report that if the 5G stuff doesn't go well that they may shut down DC comics. That seems... improbable.

Looking forward to this, not so sure I'm in yet at $40 for EA.
