    Instead now maybe we'll see a series of Ultimate Alliance style games. I liked this game and spent a decent amount of money on it by I was pushed away by poor performance and the shared inventory overflowing with f2p tokens and mechanics. Sad to see it go, but I'm not.

    Cool, didn't get Forza at One X launch because it was full price digitally. In fact, I haven't even played AC yet (got it for wife), maybe I'll just refund it and rebuy it when it's on sale.

    How different were your Season 1 playthroughs? We stalled in ~June, our usual board game group doesn't get together unless there's at least 4, and one of the regulars wants to play it with some other friends he's started it with and doesn't want to be spoiled. I'll probably end up setting...

    Yeah, our overage last month was the same as paying for unlimited... $50. So we've added unlimited, and with recent rate increase we might as well tack on another $20 to get the gig service... oh wait but then I have to buy a new modem. We've gone from cutting the cord and saying goodbye to...

    The scattered light from the stellar blast travels different distances to arrive at Earth. Some light comes to Earth directly from the supernova blast. Other light is delayed because it travels indirectly. In this case, the light is bouncing off a huge dust cloud that extends 300 to 1,600...

    ...and of course our current cable modem isn't compatible, so that's another ~ $150? to consider moving up.

    35% of Assassin's Creed Origin sales have been digital, up from 15% of Syndicate. 19% of their sales have been on the Switch (the power of releasing a game with Mario in it?) - about the same amount they sell on the Xbox One. Still wondering when people will copy EA Access. Recurring fee...

    Yeah... our Cox bill just went from $83 to $93 and last month had $50 in overages (coincidentally the same price as adding unlimited) ... now gig service is available for $120.

    Kodi and addons

    Anyone using any particular build? When I went to put Kodi on my new 4k Fire Stick I ended up putting Durex on it w/ the Ares Wizard and it runs like shit. Either need to blow it out and go w/ a simpler build or more likely just refresh it to vanilla and just install the couple of mods I'd use.

    If Madden was on PC I'd probably be done with consoles, otherwise I'm OK trading up every 4-5 years to the next console in an ecosystem.

    Yeah it does. I don't remember any shift like that noticeable enough in any phone I've used to even make me remember it, but it 100% doesn't bother me. The undersaturation is probably my biggest issue with the screen.

    With more data from other sources they have an 11 day arc of it's orbit, origin is still interstellar. No longer classified as a comet but instead an asteroid.

    Yeah, more data is needed for sure, with what has been observed it sure does stick out though. It's already on it's way back out, so observation opportunities are limited I guess. Came across this guy looking at Twitter for PANSTARRS mentions, does a lot of neat orbital stuff. Tony Dunn...

    Fine so far. The blue shift on tilt doesn't bother me, hopefully I don't have any burn-in issues. Screen is always on, alarm icon probably the best candidate.

    Liking the new Pixel XL 2 so far. Screen looks like it's floating off of the bezel, maybe because of the rounded corners. Probably have to turn off the squeeze assistant (jokes go here) or make it harder to do, it sometimes triggers in my pocket.
