Black Desert console release, Sea of Thieves, Anthem, Destiny, Battlefront 2?

Switch crossplay with Steam and Xbox. Awesome. I wish they'd patch the exclusive assets into the other versions, so Steam players see mario hats and the Xbox cars, etc.

I'd buy all of those if they put out a non-portable console for half the price of a Switch.

Yeah, personally I'm probably EA bringing Madden back to PC (maybe cross-buy with Origin?) from being done with consoles and letting that be a thing my kids enjoy. Have to think MS's strategy is going to force Sony to make the PS5 BC if that wasn't already in the cards. Hard to see them going...

Most people buying it will already have a bunch of games for it. Then there's EA Access that gets you a couple dozen games and 10 hour trials of brand new ones (Battlefront 2, Madden, etc), Gamepass gets you over 100 titles. All improved by the One X.

Holy cow.

Yeah, you deal w/ visitors who are sick and they ask for meds, declining them impacts your misery, one of a handful of characteristics (illness, hunger, injury) you can't let hit 4 or the person dies/leaves/kills themselves/etc. A number of hard decisions like that, but lucky for us we didn't...

Wow, what happened to the rest, lol. Not even any Farcry 5.

I pay for Google Music (single account - Desktop/Phone) and Amazon Music (a single Echo). Pandora for radio via the Echos/Dots. Tunein for news streaming (Echo/Dots/Phones) Just haven't had a reason to really change the setup. If we didn'h ave 2 Dots and an Echo I'd consider Google Home but...

The loot: Rare Replay – full game download. Mature game – will not be awarded to accounts for users under 17. Halo Wars 2 Kinsano Leader Pack (with special bonus of 3 Blitz Packs for Xbox One players) Minecraft Redstone Specialists Skin Pack (for Minecraft: Xbox One Edition) Halo Warthog in...

The philosophy going forward is 1st party titles will be Play Anywhere on PC, with some third parties now doing it also (such as Shadows of War). It almost feels like they excluded usual third parties like Madden because they aren't also on Windows. The bulk of what we saw might end up be Play...

Yeah, I had to go look this up too. Will wait and see if it's Play Anywhere before grabbing it on Steam when it becomes available though.

Their end game is forward and backward compatibility, and more frequently iterated consoles. With Scorpio's release the Xbox One becomes the 'minimum requirements' for games just like PC titles. It creates an ecosystem where In 15 years a fun indie like Super Meat Boy could be designed with...

This War of Mine is really ... different? It's strange playing a game just to survive, had us kind of wondering what the point was a few times. Looking forward to playing it some more.

So they have something for their presser, and teasing the reveal for MS's presser tomorrow.

In the comics typically everything is beneath him (kind of like in Civil War). He's the leader of a country afterall, has a little bit different perspective on things when you're royalty and talk to the dead. The movie will have him fighting to keep his country I think and probably...

Most imporant edit for the top: He's OK, broken knee. 'The Grand Tour' host Richard Hammond injured in car crash Richard Hammond 'airlifted to hospital after fiery crash in mountain race' He flipped a $2m supercar.

Looks pretty badass.

Probably just hoping to capture NES Classic success, put out a box w/ a classic finish w/ a ton of games on it.

As much as I really liked this game, hard to disagree with this. The things they could do with this setup would be amazing. But like other great games made for a limited platform (Fantasia on Xbox One comes to mind), it won't get that support. Having something come up and assigning your...

I've only played a couple of games, but it's easily the best VR experience. Cross-platform is pretty awesome also. Need to tinker more, a couple friends picking it up and then we're going to dig into the random mission stuff.

Wow, remember playing the beta for Fortnite almost 2 years ago. Forgot about that game.

Sony says that since the PS4 Pro's release, 1 in 5 Playstations sold have been the Pro model.

Skyrim VR sounds like an awesome idea, but I don't feel like the games where you have to walk around a lot have really been done well on VR (not sure how well they can really be done). That's part of what makes the Star Trek VR so great, it nails so many cool elements and is fun but is 100%...

Craigslist is awesome for telescopes, I got this for $400 with a bunch of lenses and accessories a few years ago. Too bad I suck at collimating. When you are actually looking at a small cloud (Orion nebula) in space it's fucking amazing. Orion SkyQuest XT10i IntelliScope Dobsonian Telescope |...

Easy to forget how big these rockets they're routinely landing are.

I got to board game night early, so a friend got out a game called Roll Player for us to try real quick. It sold me at the concept, it's a game about making a character. So a bunch of dice rolling as you manage the placement, the totals and your rep, all influenced by your race, your class...

If we could get a series of releases as good as Star Trek: Bridge Crew I think a lot more people would be sold on VR. It's really unlike anything I've played and it's unfortunate there's nothing I'm aware of that is executed nearly as well coming anytime soon.

I don't buy a ton of console games, but as someone who's mostly digital, betas, EA Access and the Steam-style refund policy on Xbox let me try most of the stuff I want to play and anything I actually keep I play so much I'm not worried about squeezing out some trade value later (ie Madden).

Yeah, I did like 5 broken shore missions to get credit for the 3. Something was broken.

I uploaded the high res photo from Flickr, it was $20 for a 4x2 print at Officemax/OfficeDepot. I did crop it in Photoshop first to make it better align w/ the dimensions because their upload tool is kinda ass. It scratches easy, so probably try another one with the outdoor vinyl treatment...

Actually got that large Jupiter image printed on vinyl, it's awesome. Makes me want to put a nice title on it, maybe notable moons, etc, and find a way to hang them around the house for my kids (3, 5) to learn about.

A multi-platform, Extinction was just announced, being shown behind closed doors at E3 apparently. From the Divekick / Killer Instinct Guys, Iron Galaxy. Bloody giant ogre battles are at the heart of Extinction

I wonder if that delay could be to line it up w/ the Scorpio launch.

Oh well I was referring to afk fishing ;) I didn't think it was just an outright feature of the game for some reason...

What's it take to get to this point and do stuff like that? Not that I expect I ever will anytime soon. I've got a level ~20 berserker.

Boring to watch IMO but this is a lot of fun to play.
