    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Unless it's 'not a good value'. Battlefield: Bad Company is coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility today, might be part of the EA Access vault but haven't seen that announced.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Tipping point for me was when I had to pay it on multiple consoles. So I stopped paying for the one I wasn't playing as much, it became a dust collector and so I got rid of it. Will give Sony another shot w/ the PS5 if it's BC.

    We never got to our 3rd game of this. Hope we take to Gloomhaven better.

    Comic Books

    So I am a bad person and never read this book in the 90s, but apparently really big news is that with the creator's permission the final page of Batman Metal introduces People are losing their shit. Maybe now I'll try and finally start reading it, from #1.

    I got that bundle too, and am really liking Offworld Trading Company. I suck at it, but had fun with all the scripted tutorials, lol.

    Board Games

    We have TI and one expansion, don't really play it enough to justify ordering the new edition. Wish they had the rights and could do that with Battlestar Galactica though...

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    I don't think so, but the stations share some of those functions in the middle consoles.

    Board Games

    I think I'm passing on anymore components. I liked playing the game but I've only managed to get my friends to make the time twice since getting it, and I already have like $100 in extras still coming. At least they'll be neat miniatures.

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    It's less emotes and more just hand motions. With the Vive you pressed the button on the side and it pointed your finger. I think PSVR was nipple clamps, the Rift one just had some finger movement. We talked about it on my first (and only) game here (skip to the 6 minute mark). Not sure why...

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    My first game was w/ one person on every platform, voice coms worked great. Only difference between each of us were the emotes (point fingers, nipple clamps and I forget the last one)

    w/ NFL2Go I seem to have to click a stream or reload a couple times, but once it works it's great.

    Yeah, and I'm OK with that. And the more it's legitimate streaming the better ;) Man, got NFL2Go setup... this is damn nice quality (watching NFL Network stream) Now to decide whether or not to tinker w/ GearsTV. If we've got any games we want at 2 locations we should be good. Probably fine...

    MMA-TV is $10, probably won't renew it but will give it a month or maybe two, DirecTV Now I was already paying, locked in at the introductory $35/mo (their $60? package, includes HBO for a year) and then NFL2Go is a one-time $25? But yeah, have Netflix and Amazon Prime on top of that. The...

    I had to sign up for a potential slot and was then invited. I too was also intimidated by the bitcoin bit after googling around for how to buy one and not sure which site to throw bank information at. Will give Coinbase a shot if my invite is still available. Between MMA-TV, DirecTV Now...

    It's really nice, just not doing a lot of console gaming at the moment. Really like how you can just pin entire games as a section. Will have to tinker with it some more.

    Ballers (HBO show with The Rock)

    I'm guessing they're going to go the 'Raiders are going rogue and move' angle. Will be really strange if he's not successful. The season was written before the owners voted in March (the Monster Jam stuff from ep before last was shot the weekend before the owners meetings)

    Salvation

    Perfect description. Halfway through the double header (watching on Amazon, free w/ Prime) and it kinda feel like I'm slowly starting to hate-watch this like The Event just to see how it ends. How is this called Salvation if it doesn't become about what it's named after? Surprise us and throw...

    It wasn't even on MMA-TV best I could tell. :( I ended up getting an acestream from reddit, which after an hour or two always kills my cable modem for some reason and it has to be restarted. WIll have to give GearsTV a shot.

    When I listen to Tunein and video streams I get pretty annoyed at either the filler repeating music (OMG, ESPN especially) and the repeating commercials (Hey, Larry Wilmore is the 21st Million person to have a podcast but...). In most cases I'd rather have the source commercials, lol.

    I'd downloaded the zip from mma-tv, I guess that created a local repo? Either way I had to do that a couple times for it to work properly but once it did it worked well. Will do the same on our Fire sticks and tinker with it some.

    I fumbled through it last night, you have to login at www.mma-tv-pro.net, download smoothstream and install from zip from the Kodi menu then that's a repo and install the app from there.

    I'm the other way around, lol. Think I had to watch the NFL Red Zone one day a couple season ago and it drove me nuts. Just used to Andrew Siciliano. Sounds like I need to re-up MMA-TV, though for some reason I thought I'd only paid $10 for a year previously, my account shows 3 pervious years...
