Got the FireTV cube today, replacing the Fire Stick and the v1 Echo in the living room. It's really nice and 2nd only to maybe Kinect when it comes to navigating around an ecosystem, probably a little faster as well. I can tell it to play Xbox and it'll switch to that input, ask it to go home...

This will probably launch another cycle of Sony shaming over their cross-play policy.

It was Smedley: “btw when I was at Sony, the stated reason internally for this was money. They didn't like someone buying something on an Xbox and it being used on a Playstation. simple as that. dumb reason, but there it is.”

That's not Homecoming 2 or anything, that's had that title as long as I've been aware of it, which is around when this trailer was released in December. Apparently I never got around to watching the full trailer, heh.

With a $10-11m budget they have no choice.

Another day, another card waiting for me, the first Total War Warhammer. Steam announced publisher/developer home pages, which could be nice. Steam Blog :: Announcing: Developer & Publisher Homepages Beta on Steam Would be nice if we could create those for groups / events (like a LAN party)

I wonder if they recently adjusted/fixed the confidence metric or something then and that's why we're getting cards for prior playtime. Edit: quoted 5th hand from a random Steam comment, this makes some sense - Games that previously didn't have cards but have since added them or games that...

Anyone get some random trading cards lately? I miss a promo or something? Games I haven't played in a long time either, like This War of Mine. At one point I got a card from like 4 different games one morning when I logged in. It's not like someone's playing on my account, the latest games...

The first game is in the Origin Access vault on PC btw. Installed it and started tinkering, but we'll see if I ever touch it again. Thx gaming add.

Is the Twitch client not an efficient way to manage these, I see it's missing most of the list above?

I'm 15. Been pretty fun but it's hard not to get into the 'am i making my build right' stuff and not just play the game. I tried to pick up a bow and start leveling that and felt useless for a whole dungeon, now that I can swap weapons I feel like I'd never try and do that again. What's the...

Anyone have 2 Switches in one household? Seems the best way to manage that is to have a different game purchasing account on each, can't have a single account buy all the games because you have to deactivate one Switch to play them on the other (oof), do I have that right? Suggestions? I...

MS going to try and address mobile w/ Scarlett to some degree ("console-quality gaming on any device"), but that's an uphill battle to sell people on streaming. We'll see what they do to try and innovate there and convince people it's something they want to do.

Steam finally modernizing it's chat. Pretty nice so far. New friends list, voice, and chat features

Didn't they show Mario Party? That'll get some play at our house. Saw something on Twitter about it being able to use multiple Switches... but we really need some help w/ a family digital library if that's going to happen - and that's a pipe dream of course. Looking forward to online play...

XBO/PS4/Steam actually - Control | Discover the unknown world

Fallout 76 w/ Brotherhood of Steel Helmet, $199.

I'm loving all the subscription stuff. For the price of a couple games a year I've got everything MS and EA releases for the most part and don't play much else. Need more copycats and more cross-buy/cross-play.

They're dropping stuff on the crowd during the season transitions, or at least for autumn, they dropped leaves, lol.

It's a little behind the Youtube stream, but the quality on Mixer is really impressive. Mixer | Interactive Livestreaming

Played Now Boarding last night, was a lot of fun. Now Boarding Would definitely recommend anyone playing 3-5 player co-op games check it out if you get a chance.

Just Cause 4 screenshots leaked.

Yeah, for Command Conquer I was really hoping that was a signal they were putting resources back into the franchise, backstopped by a teaser of a new PC RTS. I'd even settle for console/PC a la Halo Wars or something. Ideally it would be at a scale similar to Supreme Commander though. It...

Good press conference for me w/ an EA version of Game Pass and Madden for PC. Now they need to confirm cross-play (with Live at least) and add cross-buy. For everything else (mostly Anthem) I don't really care until it's actually released.

Need for Speed Payback (the latest one) now in the EA Access Vault.

Avalanche is 3 studios, the screenshot is mine, would be surprised if somehow they posted a fake ad. Was just premature is all.

I'd take an MMO Diablo. I'm still rooting for a nice big Diablo game, but rifts opening into other franchises. Run through a massive battlefield of Demons invading a Zerg encampment as Jaina, Arthas, Tyrael and Kerrigan.

Revealed via Steam ad on accident apparently.

organics are the new 'found water'

Maybe they'll touch on some of this... Ubisoft CEO: 'There will be one more console generation ... after that, we will be streaming'

Yup. Building Blocks of Life Found on Mars Building Blocks of Life Found on Mars

NASA press conference tomorrow to discuss the latest discoveries via the Curiosity rover. It's not aliens. ... ......

Juno was scheduled to be sent to it's demise in Jupiter's cloud tops in July. It's mission has reportedly been extended until July 2021. NASA's $1 billion Jupiter mission was slated to meet a fiery end this summer — but the Juno probe is getting a critical life extension

This was today's large patch I guess. Patch 1.2 Highlighted Changes The 1.2 patch features significant improvements related to: Increased stability Improved networking interactions for clients Improved networked vehicle interactions Elimination of Out Of Memory crashes Patch 1.2 Highlights...

I'm boring and just look forward to Madden every year. Beyond that, I want to see some infrastructure / value-added stuff: - Sony joins the BC party (aside from PS Now), even if they can't go full BC w/ PS3, they suggest that current games will be available for foreseeable generations (since...

That was exhausting to watch.

Battlefield 1943 was added to the EA Access Vault June's new Game Pass titles:
