[fiery python]

I've not made much progress in the first game yet.

[warped pendant]

haven't even started it on ps

[inner arrow]

I don’t even know how it looks like

[fiery python]

I've played more of it on Steam Deck than I have on PS. but even that wasn't much. I need to get back to it at some point.

[short mantle]

I’m around an hour into HFW.

[warped pendant]

I'm finishing up the last couple of classes in spellbreak before the 10th then I'm gonna finish the last few things in death stranding now that servers are back up on PC

as well as refresh my mind for art stuff before dead space drops

Year of the Rabbit starts on the 22nd so I've gotta do a couple of pieces.

[short mantle]

I need to beat Callisto before Dead Space. I’m on the second to last chapter.

[fiery python]

I'm working on finishing Need for Speed Unbound. In the single player I just need to do the last 25 drift zones, then it's all online stuff.

The one achievement that's going to be a pain is the one for doing an event in an 8 player group.

[fiery python]

You complain about dead chat and this is what you come here to contribute?

[unkempt axle]

no

i back from the big top so i have no ideas to say

[fiery python]

Then wait until you do know, because being spammy will get you sent back.

[unkempt axle]

isn't spamming sending atleast over 3 messages of the same stuff? have i done that?

[cerulean basin]

One spammy messages is all it takes

[fiery python]

If you receive one junk email it's still spam.

[weary solar]

spam (noun)
irrelevant or inappropriate messages sent on the internet to a large number of recipients.

[unkempt axle]

ONE spammy message One SPAMMING message is sending it multiple times.

[cerulean basin]

Not correct

If you receive only one single email you don't want, that's still spam. You don't need to get that unwanted email 3 times for it to become spam.

[unkempt axle]

Spam is any kind of unwanted, unsolicited digital communication that gets sent out in bulk. Often spam is sent via email, but it can also be distributed via text messages, phone calls, or social media.

[fiery python]

Just stop

[unkempt axle]

IN BULK

[cerulean basin]

Yes, you just sent it to tons of people

[fiery python]

We work from the dictionary definition posted above. Move on.

[unkempt axle]

nah bruh i love spam

[fiery python]

I enjoy it with a fried breakfast, but I don't enjoy it in the servers I spend time in.

[cinder veldt]

Anchel if you are still here I have a funny overwatch gif for ya

https://tenor.com/view/mei-overwatch-lol-gif-13768379

[unkempt axle]

yes i love spam from can served with egg

[cerulean basin]

I hate Ice Climbers almost as much as I hate Mei 😛

[crimson flume]

[unkempt axle]

guh

[cinder veldt]

What did ice climbers do to you 😛

[subtle violet]

Should I turn my series s off before inserting an ethernet cable?

[fiery python]

No

[unkempt axle]

maybe

[subtle violet]

I see loads of vide that don't sooo

[crimson flume]

it should not do any harm, but u can just to be on a safe side

[fiery python]

You don't need to power it off to plug an ethernet cable in.

[subtle violet]

Say less

[crimson flume]

i use wifi most of the time ethernet cables are annoying

[subtle violet]

I need that shpeeed

[cinder veldt]

And then there is me who thinks WiFi is annoying

[unkempt axle]

yeah i wish i could but my modem is so far

[fallow moat]

Tuesday over here…

Gonna be heavy rain again

[unkempt axle]

thats not that bad

[crimson flume]

is there any advantage in using ethernet, i get similiar speeds with both

[subtle violet]

I got a 5 meter cat 8 one for 8.99 as it was on some flash deal or suttin

[unkempt axle]

it really depends on your wifi plan

[unkempt axle]

where do you even buy them?

[cinder veldt]

Well you can technically get automatic WiFi in another place without password retype, no risk of interference

[subtle violet]

Amazon

[crimson flume]

can i play red dead redemption 1 on pc using xbox app? i wanna play that game real bad to find out what happens to john next

[fiery python]

Ethernet is more reliable and not likely to suffer interference like wifi can.

[subtle violet]

Nah

[unkempt axle]

user cloud gaming

[fiery python]

You can stream from your Xbox to the PC, but you can't play the game natively on PC

[crimson flume]

i dont own a xbox, wish i could play red dead redemption 1

[subtle violet]

I tried loooool, only playable if you buy it and play it normally

[fiery python]

If you don't own an Xbox then you can't play it through your PC.

[crimson flume]

what should i do?

[fiery python]

Buy an xbox

[fallow moat]

With a 90% chance of rain there will definitely be heavy rain

[fiery python]

Alternatively, give up your desire to play the game.

[crimson flume]

bruh i am not gonna buy xbox just for one game... i already have a gaming laptop

[fiery python]

Then you don't play it. Simple as that.

[crimson flume]

i will just watch a walkthrough

[subtle violet]

Buy it on steam or something

[cinder veldt]

It's not on pc

[crimson flume]

they should release it on pc

[subtle violet]

Oof

[crimson flume]

i wish it was on steam

[cinder veldt]

If you really want to play it there is always the method of buying a cheap 360 to play it

[crimson flume]

i am scared that i will end up buying a 18 year old console online which will die before i finish the video game

[subtle violet]

Yes

[unkempt axle]

i LOVE EATING MEAT 🤤

[crimson flume]

bro why are u doing drugs bro not cool.

[subtle violet]

Chicken strrrips

[unkempt axle]

[subtle violet]

[cinder veldt]

There is always ways you can make sure you buy one that will last, but I totally get what you mean

[unkempt axle]

🤤

[subtle violet]

Ayooooo

[unkempt axle]

yummy human

[subtle violet]

🐱

[unkempt axle]

you know it taste like pork

[fiery python]

Knock it off being weird

[subtle violet]

How do you know that🤨

[fiery python]

Enough

[unkempt axle]

i love chicken ramen

[subtle violet]

Sincerest apologies

[unkempt axle]

have you ever tried kangaroo meat?

[subtle violet]

I don't intend to

[unkempt axle]

its yum

here they make it in sausages

[subtle violet]

But no joke, when I visit some family in Jordan, I eat goats brain and tongue, it's not even that, that bad lol

[kind mantle]

Should I keep Xbox resolution at 1080p when I’m using a tv that goes upto 720p

[cinder veldt]

You can't really do that

[unkempt axle]

yeah i think kangaroo is one of the only animals on a coat of arms which your allowed to commercially sell

as food

[subtle violet]

If your Tv goes up to 720 idk how you've got the option of 1080

[kind mantle]

Maybe my tv goes higher I just thought it was 720 cos it looks bad but the option for 1080 is under display

[subtle violet]

Not sure, but you might aswell just choose that then

[cerulean basin]

Might have changed, but if I remember, you can't do console streaming of backwards compatible games yet

[unkempt axle]

go safe go 320p because its the best option it allows for 67hz on mine

[subtle violet]

Yeah, original quality is goated

[unkempt axle]

tho i do use my series x on a box tv

[subtle violet]

Imagine being able to see clearly pfft

[unkempt axle]

iam so excited for tmrw

[subtle violet]

Why

[unkempt axle]

vinland saga new episode come out

[cinder veldt]

That's correct, unfortunately it's not possible

[hushed hound]

Hi, was a long time ago since i ever texted here

[tired hare]

Does anybody know who qwy is

[fallow moat]

I just worry about there being heavy rain because I could be stuck at a pool & it could get VERY dangerous from there

90% chance of thunderstorms

[cerulean basin]

Ah, I remember the days in which Xbox 360 was new, lots of people were still playing games on non-HD TVs, but some games had not been designed with those in mind and the in-game text was miniscule

[fallow moat]

Halo 2 even though it was 480x720, still had good graphics.

[short mantle]

360’s were durable

[hushed hound]

RB Battles got delayed again, cuz they found out people used exploits for getting golden version of items

RB Battles is an event in Roblox btw

[obsidian kayak]

Durable but over heats at least early models

[cerulean basin]

Kid Icarus: Uprising on 3DS had fantastic graphics, despite its 400x240 resolution

[fallow moat]

Oh my goodness.

[obsidian kayak]

I hope that game gets a re release on switch or a sequel

[cerulean basin]

Yeah, it's definitely one of my top games I'd like to see remastered

It's possibly one of Nintendo's games with the highest production value ever

[fallow moat]

Destiny on the 360… resolution was 1024x624, looked awful

[obsidian kayak]

I think the devs have hinted at it unless I’m thinking of a different title

[cerulean basin]

Everything from the character designs, the voice acting, the level design, the gameplay mechanics, the complexity of its systems, the replayability, its online modes, the soundtrack, the graphics... It's just top tier in every aspect... except the screen resolution.

[idle spear]

I remember kid icarus came with a special stand thing on 3DS as well. I got it around the 3DS launch period

[cerulean basin]

Oh, Sakurai has been cheeky about it and has publicly stated "I wonder if this game will ever get remastered?" at the end of one of his game design videos.

[obsidian kayak]

I also wanna see a actual hd remake of ocarina of time

[cerulean basin]

I'd be fine if they just took the 3DS version and released it at HD resolutions with some minor texture updates to accommodate for that

[hushed hound]

I saw people thinking original LiS is better then Remastered one, like the new one has facial expression wich makes it look realistic and also reworked characters + new lighting

[obsidian kayak]

Yah that’s what I remember

[fallow moat]

And Halo 3 on 360 was 1152x640, honestly it looked okay

[idle spear]

I was playing the unofficial PC port the other day. really nice playing at 60 FPS and the QOL changes.

[cerulean basin]

The 3DS version already had so many improvements to the original, it's crazy all we keep getting on Wii U and Switch is just the original N64 version without all those changes

[fallow moat]

Still looked good on N64

[idle spear]

The original game was only 20fps and still didn't seem to bad at the time but 30fps on the 3DS is much smoother by comparison

[worn nacelle]

I have a problem

Switch version is apparently the worst ironically. Missing graphics and visual bugs

[worn nacelle]

My headset mic suck when i put it on my Xbox series s controller but when i put it in my ps4 it's just fine

[hushed hound]

Remastered >>> Original

[obsidian kayak]

The 3DS version was so good

[obsidian kayak]

Job hire for first party nintendo game

[idle spear]

I'm trying to get a copy of Majoras mask on 3DS at the moment. Luckily I got Wind waker HD and TP HD when they were cheap

[obsidian kayak]

Last time I looked was below $30 on eBay

[idle spear]

About £40+ here

[cerulean basin]

Second party, if it's commissioned to another studio

[warped pendant]

https://movieweb.com/inside-job-canceled-netflix/

https://tenor.com/view/another-one-and-another-one-gif-13250129

[obsidian kayak]

To bad don’t know I irl have 2 copies 😂

[cerulean basin]

But yeah, the 3DS version of Ocarina of Time, if you added a few modern day lighting effects such as some modern fog effects, ambient occlusion and whatnot (all of those possible on Switch, by the way), you'd end up with quite the updated look and feel

Ouch, not Inside Job! That was a fantastic one!

[idle spear]

Yeah that's what happened with Resident Evil Revelations 1. Looks good on everything

[obsidian kayak]

I was surprised how good they make it look on the 3DS hardware

Plus they would have to figure out how to take the bottom screen features out since you really only have one screen at a time

[cerulean basin]

Granted, Resident Evil Revelations was a bit of a technical masterpiece on the 3DS

[obsidian kayak]

Make it a pause menu like the original

[idle spear]

I remember having that extra analog slider thing for the 3DS just for that game as well

[obsidian kayak]

Circle pad pro?

[idle spear]

yep

[obsidian kayak]

The new 3DS xl has same thing but it’s one of those nubs that use to be on laptops

[idle spear]

That circle pad pro felt like something out of the 90's. Such an odd accessory

I have the 2DS XL now with the nub and extra shoulder buttons

[obsidian kayak]

Didn’t it take battery’s to?

The circle pad pro

[fallow moat]

I miss playing the Gen1 remakes of Pokémon

[cerulean basin]

Apparently Discord doesn't like me posting images of Link playing the ocarina. Too explicit. Sigh...

[idle spear]

Don't think it did

[obsidian kayak]

Is it the one that shows a lot of his legs?

[idle spear]

Wait maybe it did, I can't remember now

[cerulean basin]

Just his hands holding Saria's ocarina close to his face, looking surprised

[obsidian kayak]

Oh

[cerulean basin]

Attempt 2

Ah, so that worked. Maybe it was the other part that triggered it then?

Nope, this is fine. So it's just Discord not liking it when those two pictures are right next to each other, for some reason 😂

[idle spear]

I went through Wind waker HD again this weekend. I love visuals in that game

[fallow moat]

N64 version still looks fantastic of OOT.

[obsidian kayak]

Since we already have ocarina on the n64 online idk how likely it would be for them to rerelease the 3DS version on switch.

[cerulean basin]

Wind Waker HD looks great. The changes they made to the lighting were subtle, but they really modernize the toon look

[obsidian kayak]

Only Reason my Wii U is still plugged in.

[idle spear]

The QOL changes in WW HD are also nice. Especially the dungeons where you need to mind control your companions

[cerulean basin]

That didn't stop them from re-releasing Super Mario 64 in a collection, a different version from the one on Nintendo Switch Online, did it? 😛

[fiery python]

That collection still annoys me, with how they missed out Galaxy 2.

[obsidian kayak]

Yah but 3D all stars was released before the n64 online.

[cerulean basin]

Or not having to do three useless trips to finally be able to find ||each piece of the Triforce|| in the final parts

[obsidian kayak]

Galaxy 2 is the better game in my opinion but there both good

[idle spear]

I didn't buy 3D all stars bundle. Didn't like the FOMO thing they were trying to pull

[fiery python]

I'd been wanting a way to play Mario 64 on modern consoles for a long time, so had to buy it.

They won't give me an N64 Classic, so that will have to do.

[cerulean basin]

Actually, I'd also love for Super Mario 64 DS to get a remaster.
As much as I love the original N64 game, the DS version had lots of neat additions and made levels more interesting at times, adding new areas, boss fights, characters...

[obsidian kayak]

Also the 3D all stars version is the version that removed the BLJ / n64 online version is the original version

[idle spear]

Ow yeah for sure.

[fiery python]

Mario 64 is one of my all time favourite games, so I never really liked 64 DS. It changed too many things. Same reason I never got on with the Resi 1 remake/directors cut.

[fiery python]

I've played the originals too many times that the newer versions with changes/additions don't feel right.

[cerulean basin]

Oh, I personally liked getting to some area I knew quite well and being stumped for a bit because my old tricks didn't work anymore

[obsidian kayak]

Using a dpad to play the DS version never felt right

[fiery python]

It was fine when you coupled it with the touch screen.

[cerulean basin]

It still made this section harder than it should be

[hoary bane]

Super Mario 64 on the DS makes the Switch Version(s) look better tbh

[desert sonnet]

Did Nintendo ever port the 3ds ones to Switch or even Wii?

[cerulean basin]

But I still very much like the overall changes to the aesthetics in the 3DS version (second pic)

[idle spear]

On WW HD - ||I'm still not sure how we were supposed to find the ghost ship chart for one of the tri force shards. I just had to explore the whole map to randomly find the fisherman tip for it on an island || I wish they changed that as well, maybe in the switch release if ever

[desert sonnet]

I would've preferred if they kept the grimy green walls 😅

[obsidian kayak]

Mii Verse bottles

[fallow moat]

https://www.dexerto.com/pokemon/pokemon-sword-shield-stadium-728135/ Just how Pokémon games have evolved

[idle spear]

The miiverse stuff doesn't work anymore. I think it was only up for a few years

[obsidian kayak]

Nvm bad idea lol

Plus half the time you would get memes or ppl making stupid posts

[cerulean basin]

Miiverse... one of those little Nintendo ideas that actually worked great but we'll probably never see again

It really made each game feel a bit more playful when at the end of a level, or during loading screens, hub worlds and whatnot, you could see people's tiny drawings

[astral saffron]

Rhinne did you ever complete Fuser?

[fiery python]

Miiverse was fun. But I still miss Street Pass more.

No, I never finished it.

[idle spear]

I hope the virtual console can come back one day. Kinda sad we can't own any classic games anymore after wiiU eshop closes down

I got my WiiU in 2018 so I missed out on Miiverse sadly

[cerulean basin]

😛

[fiery python]

Whenever I need to travel, I always wish I had Street Pass again. It was a lot of fun seeing which people I'd passed, where they came from and unlocking all the puzzle pieces.

[astral saffron]

Servers are going offline soon so if you are bothered about it I'd try it soon

[fiery python]

I did the online achievements, so everything left is offline/single player.

[cinder veldt]

Got mine around launch, didn't really use miiverse that much but the Wii u had some memories, met a really good friend over it too

[obsidian kayak]

They kind of have MiiVerse in Splatoon 3 but not really you can’t access it outside of the game

[cerulean basin]

My 3DS still has the Mii of Tekken's 1-3 and Pikmin director Masamichi Abe in the Streetpass Plaza 😛

[obsidian kayak]

But ppl still post art

[astral saffron]

Ah cool. Just wanted to make sure just incase 😅

[idle spear]

That's cool

[fiery python]

I don't have my original 3DS any more, so lost all the progress I made in Street Pass and all the special Miis I picked up. 😦

[astral saffron]

It's a shame it died so quickly. I really enjoyed it.

[tired hare]

can someone help me for a bit? im trying to set up my xbox that it does the 120fps thing on wz 2.0 but i cant see the refresh rate in settings

These days Nintendo has just made it so that it's almost impossible to actually meet people via online games. No ways to interact with other users.

[cerulean basin]

Does your TV support 120 Hz via HDMI 2.1?

[obsidian kayak]

3DS’s are expensive now almost $300 on eBay for the new 3DS xl

[idle spear]

I still have all my 3DS ambassador games on my 2DS XL which I transferred over. I found it odd how they never released any other GBA games on the 3DS eshop

Yeah the best time to get a 3DS was just after Switch came out. Now they are expensive

[dry warren]

🥶🍦

[cerulean basin]

Yeah, having GBA games available for purchase on 3DS just seemed logical, especially after showing it was possible when the Ambassador games came out.
And even fantastic seeing the Wii U getting GBA games (and DS too!) although they looked extremely low on brightness

[obsidian kayak]

If don’t mind a Japanese 3DS you can find the “New 3DS LL” for like $140

They call it LL in Japan

[idle spear]

The majoras mask and metroid limited edition ones are cool. Pretty expensive now but I should have got one back then

[swift terrace]

Where can I ask a pc/laptop question? I need to know if a certain game will run on a certain laptop

And if so, how well it will run too

[obsidian kayak]

Idk why but for some reason in the us we never really got the “new 3DS” non XL version besides in a Black Friday bundle

[summer spire]

Why the heck is ms not realeing new gamepass games? Like its almost the 10th of jan

[fiery python]

How about you stop moaning and look at the releases? There's been a few games added already and more to come already announced.

[obsidian kayak]

There coming later we already know a few that are coming this month

[fiery python]

They've bombarded us with releases all the past year and then had a holiday break. Stop acting so whiny and entitled.

[tired hare]

yess

[prime mantle]

I got Elden ring a couple days ago :D

[swift terrace]

Why is that game still $60 lol

[fiery python]

Because it's hugely popular, not riddled with mtx for constant monetisation and is worth the money.

[swift terrace]

didn’t know it was that popular

[fiery python]

It was game of the year last year and constantly in the news.

[swift terrace]

Hm

[cinder veldt]

Welp time to complete these remaining quests

[cerulean basin]

The one about blocking shots with the shield is annoying

I'm only missing either that one, or opening a bunch of chests while on slap juice

[cinder veldt]

Might give up that shield one, didn't work too good when I tried before

[fiery python]

Both of those are super easy

You can ask a team mate to shoot the shield.

[cinder veldt]

Wait having friends 😆

[fiery python]

For the slap juice one, drink a slap juice then rapidly interact with a gas pump and it will count 😉

Just spam the button on a gas pump.

[cinder veldt]

Yeah just got it done 😉

Anchel if you plan to get on cloud or something today hmu so we can do the shield one lol

[cerulean basin]

Then the pump gas will fill my last weekly one

[fiery python]

I saw that they disabled the shockwave hammer.

[cerulean basin]

I may do something today, but I'm already back at work, at least partially, and can't be on voice chat

[cinder veldt]

Thanks

[fiery python]

There was an exploit where people could get unlimited uses, so they were just bouncing all around their opponents.

[cerulean basin]

??? I was using it last night

I didn't actually see the text but guess it was today?

Due to an issue, we have temporarily disabled the Shockwave Hammer in all playlists.

Our intent is to re-enable the Shockwave Hammer in the next game update when this issue has been resolved.

And because of current timeline plans it’ll probably stay disabled until January 17th

[obsidian kayak]

Does anyone here have a meta quest? Or oculus quest 2 what ever you want to call it

[idle spear]

I have the first Rift, not any of the quest models

[obsidian kayak]

Ah I have a quest 2 trying to find a good head strap

The default one is terrible

[inner arrow]

Oh so people found the shockwave bug eh?

[cerulean basin]

You're surprised people found a bug? 😛

[fiery python]

I use the official pro strap, or whatever it's called

[obsidian kayak]

Shockwave? Like that old flash player thing?

[inner arrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2arSdqHjUqU I mean nowadays just one person finding a glitch means everyone else knows an hour later

[cinder veldt]

Doom, you up to help with shield or something

[cerulean basin]

😛

[obsidian kayak]

That’s what I meant

[inner arrow]

You want to play rn swagus?

[obsidian kayak]

Didn’t even know ppl still use it

[cerulean basin]

They don't. It's not supported anymore.

[cinder veldt]

Yes

[inner arrow]

Yeah why not. Let me jump online. But only an hour or so

[cerulean basin]

Ah, 90s internet...

[cinder veldt]

Sounds perfect, all time I need

[fiery python]

I spent a lot of hours on that site.

[cinder veldt]

Same

[obsidian kayak]

Oh it’s a weapon 😂

[idle spear]

Ow the flash games were amusing

[obsidian kayak]

I was so confused

[idle spear]

Used to spend a lot of time on newgrounds playing flash games in early 00's

[obsidian kayak]

Ooff sorry didn’t think was illegal to do with flash

[oblique coyote]

It's very cold. 😦

[obsidian kayak]

Bot got mad at me lol

[lyric jetty]

Used to play cool maths games in high school instead of learning since all the other flash game sites were blocked

[fiery python]

I don't think it is, but the bot doesn't work on context, it's a simple word filter.

[idle spear]

I always managed to find a way around the IT blocks lol

[fiery python]

At one of my old jobs the internet access was blocked by simple password protection, with only managers allowed a password.

One manager always wrote his passwords in his little notebook, so obviously his got shared around. IT were very surprised when he managed to clock up around 140 hours of internet access in one work day 😂

[lyric jetty]

Eventually we all learnt that there was an admin account
User:Admin
Password: {town we were in}

[fiery python]

His password was Spiderman1 😄

[lyric jetty]

Things got very unproductive from that point

[obsidian kayak]

My high school would set us up a account but they would always use our ID numbers as our usernames and at begging of the year you would put password1 and it would make u pick a password

I’m sure a kid could have stole someone’s account at begging of year lol

[granite verge]

Place I worked previously (big, international law firm) - IT needed me to leave my password on a post-it for some support guy to do some work on it. Horrified.

[cerulean basin]

My school had one computer lab room, full of Windows 3.1 PCs with no Internet connection, and we had to share one computer per 3 students in my class

[obsidian kayak]

When was in high school was win7

[granite verge]

I changed it to some random string before doing that then changed it immediately after. I never understood how they completely failed at basic infrastructure

[cerulean basin]

All we were taught was how to turn the PC on, start Word and change the text formatting... ugh

[idle spear]

Windows 98 was what we had in school. There were some cool educational games on them as well at the time

[fiery python]

Once the initial frenzy and novelty of having internet access died down the managers realised that people were more productive when they had internet access than not. Having a few minutes here and there to chill instead of a solid 8 hour work focus meant people got more done.

Same as my last job. Someone on the team complained to the manager that they could see me on the internet doing personal stuff fairly often, jumping on to check things between support cases and stuff. The manager told her to mind her own business because I did at least twice as much work as she did. 😄

[obsidian kayak]

We did have old macs in school tho use to play oregon trail

[cerulean basin]

Reminds me of this post on r/antiwork earlier this week, given to someone at their workplace as a reward for their good job...

[idle spear]

There were these different versions of Rayman to learn different languages I remember having

[obsidian kayak]

Also KidPix

[idle spear]

I still have the big box for Rayman french here somewhere

[fiery python]

I saw that. 😬

[obsidian kayak]

Did you ever play Spy Fox

[idle spear]

Don't think so

[obsidian kayak]

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BzHoONdYDDs/maxresdefault.jpg

[idle spear]

There was one called reader rabbit they used to have at school for maths and english

[cerulean basin]

I was always surprised how Rayman went from a super tough platformer game to this...

[lyric jetty]

The retro ubi logo

[obsidian kayak]

Was similar to telltale games where u click what you want to interact with

[idle spear]

Yeah that's kinda like what reader rabbit was

[desert sonnet]

Where are his arms and legs!

Huh.. and neck too I guess.

[obsidian kayak]

Rayman never had those

[cursive vigil]

When is xbox gonna show something about redfall 😭

[idle spear]

Rayman would be too OP with legs and arms.

[fiery python]

[cursive vigil]

I keep hearing every game journalist talk about redfall but xbox

[obsidian kayak]

Idk what Ubisoft got rid of Rayman it’s all about rabbids now

[cursive vigil]

It's suppose to come out in the first half tho 💀

[fiery python]

No date has been announced as of yet.

[wary trench]

guys, quick question. What do you call those things you can buy for headphones where you can plug 2 wires into one controller?

[cursive vigil]

Well they just said first half

[fiery python]

They'll show more when they're ready to do so.

[fiery python]

Headphone splitter?

You mean to use two pairs to listen from one device?

[idle spear]

Yeah I'm not sure if we will see classic 2D and 3D Rayman again

[wary trench]

yes exactly

[desert sonnet]

I bet we'll see another Rayman game. Just gotta give it some time

[idle spear]

Coming up on 10 years since Legends now

Hi

[inner arrow]

What the hell… Tokyo Revengers is on Disney Plus now in germany lol

[cinder veldt]

[hushed hound]

I just remember i played Rayman game on Ps One, was so fun but had complicated levels

[inner arrow]

But only season 2 😒

[hushed hound]

Disney + is available in my country somhow

[inner arrow]

It’s funny. Season 1 is not available in germany but second season is. I love starting midway

[hushed hound]

Hopefully Hellblade II is gonna realise in 2023, has been a year since they published the trailer

[desert sonnet]

Hellblade looks cool. I hope Ninja Theory works on another Kung Fu Chaos game afterwards. I loved that game

[hushed hound]

Facts! I can't wait for it

[cerulean basin]

Ah, anti-corruption training at work... Sigh...

[desert sonnet]

Hmmm decisions, decisions..

A journalist with a seaside villa though? That's interesting

[grim ravine]

Is there a glitch where A doesn’t work

[cerulean basin]

Clearly a corrupt journalist!!! 😛

[hushed hound]

The chat is on Power Saving 🍃

[fiery python]

Arty, don't. You know better.

[hushed hound]

I'm gonna say thanks

[fiery python]

It wasn't a compliment, but okay...

[hushed hound]

Is alright, i wasn't even sure if that's a compliment

Anyways, today is Monday such a beautiful day isn't it

[fiery python]

Not here. It's cold and the soundtrack to my Monday is yet another day of chainsaws outside from people cutting down trees. It was bad enough all day Friday, but now they're back again.

[cinder veldt]

It's super icy here today

[hushed hound]

Iconic photo of Jodie entering life mode:

[inner arrow]

Disneyplus in germany can’t catch a god damn break. Announcing that they have tokyo revengers and the comments is full of ‘No season 1? Are you stupid?’
And ‘Where is god damn Bleach?’

[inner arrow]

Iconic? I don’t even know what game that is from

[cinder veldt]

Til that's a game

[inner arrow]

Oh. That existed

Just like every David Cage game.

[hushed hound]

Yeah it is a David Cage game but the developers really put work into it for him...

[cerulean basin]

I still really wanna play it, it is on PC these days, isn't it?

[desert sonnet]

I remember how Naughty Dog said it was a coincidence that Ellie from Last of Us happened to look like Elliot Page lol

[inner arrow]

Eh it has his fingerprints over everything

[inner arrow]

Yep. Epic games store

[fiery python]

Ah yes, Beyond Two Souls. The game with a QTE prompt to insert a tampon, which served no other purpose than for David Cage to show he understands women.

[hushed hound]

Yes! I played it from Steam

[inner arrow]

Let’s not start with questionable scenes in david cage games lol. We won’t be done till… tomorrow lol

[desert sonnet]

Oof.. didn't know about that tampon bit

[cerulean basin]

Once I upgrade my GPU I'll probably catch up on some of those games I've been missing out on

[fiery python]

It's right near the start of the game.

[desert sonnet]

That's... Yeesh

[inner arrow]

Fahrenheit had a steamy scene between the two protagonists… unfortunately only that one was undead

[desert sonnet]

Darktide perhaps..?

[inner arrow]

That’s david cage for you. He really likes writing these kinda awful things lol

[cerulean basin]

Not a Warhammer fan, sorry Trippy 🙂

[hushed hound]

Should be a better writter

Should be a better human, never mind a better writer https://www.nme.com/news/gaming-news/david-cage-denies-allegations-of-toxic-workplace-culture-at-quantic-dream-3286274

[inner arrow]

This must have been in one of his meeting
‘The robots need to stand in the back of the bus! To charge and because you know… parallels to racism!!!’

[hushed hound]

They only put work on Kara's Story the most at this point

[inner arrow]

Hope we all looking forward to their Star Wars game am I right?

[desert sonnet]

That cg trailer looked cool at least lol

[inner arrow]

I mean… it’s a cgi trailer without any type of gameplay.

[cerulean basin]

I've heard true horror stories from friends who've worked with him.
Like, he would wake up in the morning with a new idea in mind, walk to the office and just stop everyone's hard work from the last few months and yell at anyone who tried to at least make something out of what they had achieved so far.

[desert sonnet]

Ew.. that's lame

[hushed hound]

That's sad

[inner arrow]

That’s Anchel

[unique wasp]

David Cage is an auteur

[inner arrow]

He secretly thinks he is a genius

[unique wasp]

Work conditions weren’t great with stanley kubrick either

[inner arrow]

If you want a complete and utter mess of story telling : Fahrenheit,
Was one of his first games and it's one of the worst things you will experience in terms of story writing

[hushed hound]

While doing a game developers idea also matters! Not only for the writter

[lyric jetty]

Or Ancel (not Anchel)

[astral saffron]

I wonder what Peter Molyneux is up to these days

NFTs and crypto

[astral saffron]

Ah that sucks

At one point I thought Molyneux only makes satire games cause he made a game where if you spent 1000$ you could see the true ending

[desert sonnet]

Starts at 5:16 y'all. That was great 😂

[robust crane]

Hi

[inner arrow]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curiosity:_What's_Inside_the_Cube%3F

That was another one of his games which was also kinda like a joke

[idle spear]

Yeah I remember that

[astral saffron]

Yeah lol I remember that too

[desert sonnet]

Was that the one where everyone needed to click to the center and there's a special prize?

[astral saffron]

I feel like he had some good ideas but execution was abysmal

I just hope a Black and White clone comes out one day lol

[inner arrow]

Yes Trippy... That it was

[inner arrow]

Populus and Black and White... Both games deserving of a remake or reboot or rip-off...

[desert sonnet]

I remember being in middle school and reading about how Fable was to allow you to plant an acorn and it grows to be a tree over time. That sold me on the game. It didn't have it, but I still enjoyed my time lol

[astral saffron]

Yeah he was promising crazy things lol

Xbox themed Oreos with prizes 😛 https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/9/23546167/oreo-microsoft-xbox-cookies-forza-halo-infinite-sea-of-thieves

That's where the meme is coming from :

Xbox cookies.. mmm

[granite verge]

I need them

[inner arrow]

Is the granprize cookie a cookie with masterchief on it?

[hallow ridge]

[cerulean basin]

Oreo-themed Master Chief skin 😛

[hushed hound]

Oreo & Xbox collab 😍

[cerulean basin]

Can't say this ship looks very Oreo-themed though... It still looks delicious, somehow

[granite verge]

Yo is this actually a thing???

[hushed hound]

Looks like was made from Dark Chocolate

[cerulean basin]

Yup, it is an official thing

[granite verge]

Incredible

[desert sonnet]

Ooo you know what would be cool/hilarious? If they replaced the water in Sea of Thieves with milk. Then you can just sail around with that Oreo ship all over the milk

[obsidian kayak]

If boat is made out of Oreos u would sink very fast 😂

[cerulean basin]

Ok I need this now in my life, thanks Trippy

[hushed hound]

I need that

[granite verge]

One of the guys in the Halo server has a cat that's the double of mine, cat's name is Oreo 😂

[inner arrow]

Milky sea? That's... weird

[hushed hound]

With the muntains made from cake with strawberrys

[obsidian kayak]

I don’t want a soggy boat

[desert sonnet]

There's also that Forza Oreo car.

If they don't have an Oreo cookie as the steering wheel, I'm gonna be disappointed

[obsidian kayak]

Is the wheel a double stuff Oreo or normal stuff

[hushed hound]

#oreo-chat

[inner arrow]

It always was a food chat

[granite verge]

[obsidian kayak]

Now I want a Oreo McFlurry

[tired hare]

2023, hope this is our year for games Xbox gang looking good

[obsidian kayak]

2022 was a slow year for gaming in general I feel like

[inner arrow]

We had great games before. I can't complain

[warped pendant]

I like the promotionals like this where they're actually themed after the item

OPI Nail Polish and Razer stuff are good examples, same with the Funko Spartan

[hushed hound]

2018 was the era in gaming

[warped pendant]

what

[obsidian kayak]

That bug still in your Xbox?

[warped pendant]

2010 and 2011 would like a word

[unique wasp]

2022 had gow ragnarok and elden ring. Games that have been hyped for years and year

[hushed hound]

You forgot a Plague Tale Requiem

[warped pendant]

2010-2011 is widely considered the best year in gaming history

[tired hare]

Oh it’s worse, bug bombing the whole house on Wednesday

[inner arrow]

Yeah cause... might not have been that memorable lol

[inner arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/what-huh-say-what-wait-what-eh-gif-23269873

[tired hare]

You know games are getting good when indie games are starting to look like triple A games

[warped pendant]

Black ops 1, halo reach, red dead 1 etc etc etc

[tired hare]

2010-2011 was a great year for the only console I owned, the Wii 💀

[warped pendant]

we don't have to personally like the games to recognize their impact and significance

[inner arrow]

2008 would like to have a word

[warped pendant]

what happened in 2008

[tired hare]

2022 was great for PlayStation exclusives, pc and Xbox not so much

[warped pendant]

gears of war 3 was also 2011

[vast ermine]

2011 Duke Nukem Forever finally came out

[inner arrow]

GTA4, L4D, Mirrors Edge, MGS4, Mario Kart Wii, Gears of War 2 (The best Gears), Far Cry 2, COD WAW, Burnout Paradise, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Smash Bros Wii, Force Unleashed, Dead Space, Mass Effect

[warped pendant]

Far Cry 2

no

that busted mess of an awful game

glorified tech demo

[tired hare]

Dead space and fallout 3 carrying the list

[inner arrow]

Dark coming in with his hot takes

[warped pendant]

far cry 2 was literally awful

the AI was terrible, the story was tepid at best

[tired hare]

I agree

[warped pendant]

game had so many bugs

the combat was awful

[inner arrow]

tepid

[tired hare]

Multiplayer was probable fun tho at the time

[warped pendant]

you have malaria. go fight for these african warlords to get meds

[inner arrow]

Anyway agree to disagree : Little Big Planet, Persona 4, Resistance 2

[warped pendant]

then the betrayal was just the most interesting aspect

if the game's design was better and AI managed to be worth a damn it'd be better

[cerulean basin]

It did set up the groundwork for 3 to shine though 😛

[warped pendant]

but it shared the painful AI that the first one had

can see you through bushes a mile away

and will chase you to the ends of the earth

oh and they respawn when you leave and come back

[tired hare]

First far cry was by crytek, did Ubisoft copy the AI in 2?

[warped pendant]

FC2's biggest highlight was its engine tech

environmental interactions in that game were amazing

[tired hare]

Did you like the multiplayer or no Dark, I never played it

[vast ermine]

You guys remember Medal of Honor: War fighter?

[warped pendant]

2's multiplayer is...something

it's still active

to an extent

[tired hare]

Probably only for boosting

[warped pendant]

more custom maps

FC2 ran on cryengine

[granite verge]

Nerf AR is the best one

[warped pendant]

it shared similarities with only marginal AI systems improvements

[warped pendant]

oh yeah the nerf one

I rock the razer set though

[granite verge]

Yeah, that's real good

[warped pendant]

naturally with the halo elite controller charm

[cerulean basin]

Huh? Wasn't FC2 already on Dunia?

[warped pendant]

nope

Dunia wasn't until FC4

[inner arrow]

It was but... Don't tell Dark. He knows better

[warped pendant]

the intro to the game literally has the cryengine logo

https://tenor.com/view/awkward-black-kid-gif-4937950

the icing on the cake for me was the game's story bugging out on the last mission

50 hours into the game

[cerulean basin]

I can confirm now that Dunia was debuted with Far Cry 2. It did have a lot of code from CryEngine 1 though.

[warped pendant]

last mission refused to spawn on the map

[warped pendant]

probably why then.

but the CE logo was put front and center on the game

[inner arrow]

Unfortunately no english page but here :

[tired hare]

2 could do with a good remake

[tired hare]

Not no crappy remaster they gave to blood dragon

[warped pendant]

if 2 got fully remade with modern AI it'd be a lot better

they'd have to do a lot of work to reintroduce the environmental systems

since those haven't been in FC in years now

[tired hare]

Lots of people actually have 2 as their favourite far cry game, honestly it deserves a remake for fans

[warped pendant]

2's environment is definitely unparalleled

[tired hare]

I tried the original and personally I couldn’t deal with it

[idle spear]

The fire spreading on 2 was cool

[warped pendant]

https://youtu.be/FCeEvQ68jY8

fire spreading was just the tip of the iceberg

[cerulean basin]

Gameplay needs dictate whether efforts should be spent on certain environmental effects or not

[warped pendant]

gameplay better dictate that a gun can shoot through thin sheet metal anchel

😂

[tired hare]

The desert setting would be so beautiful if done right

[idle spear]

A lot of the other things like gun jamming and malaria top ups made it not that enjoyable as game though for me

[cerulean basin]

AC Origins already did a wonderful desert setting. Very different gameplay style, of course 😛

[tired hare]

Origins is my favourite Ubisoft game

Loved the setting

[cerulean basin]

Rayman 2 and Asassin's Creed 2 are probably among my top ones.
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and PoP 2008 are also quite high up.

[tired hare]

I want them to make a remaster just as an excuse for me to 100% the achievements again

[idle spear]

Splinter cell chaos theory comes to mind as my favourite

[cerulean basin]

Uh, of all the games to need a remake, AC Origins is not it 😛 Already runs beautifully on Series XS with 60 fps added recently and the One X enhancements.

[inner arrow]

Rayman Origins, Sands of Time, POP 2008, AC Origins and Rayman 2, Beyond good and Evil, XIII are my favorites

[tired hare]

I’ve been putting off 100% assassins creed 3 remastered for a while now should I just sook it up and do it

[idle spear]

XIII is cool

[cerulean basin]

I'm surprised to hear you say PoP 2008 is also high up for you, Doomcraft 🙂 It's not something common to hear.

[lyric jetty]

They should remake assassins creed mirage /s

[inner arrow]

Sands of Time and POP 2008 has the best romantic couple in video game history

[cerulean basin]

Nah, re-release Valhalla already. You could probably do with a second playthrough.

[tired hare]

I’ll Kms, worst ac game

[idle spear]

A lot of good Tom Clancy games like Rainbow Six 3 and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

[cerulean basin]

I would never, EVER proceed in any area without first making sure I had heard every single dialogue they both had 😄

[cerulean basin]

It's actually one of the best performers. I personally absolutely loved it, much more so than Origins and Odyssey. I still prefer AC2 overall, but Valhalla still rates higher than even AC3 and Black Flag for me.

[inner arrow]

Same. The "entitled snarky dude having to team up with a princess who actually thinks very low of him and eventually they fall in love" is the best trope in PoP and ngl... they always mastered that type of dynamic with their dialogues. Wish we would get that back instead of focusing on edgy prince trying to murder everyone

[cerulean basin]

I used to hate Ubisoft for what they did to the Prince with Warrior Within 😛

[idle spear]

I have the HD trilogy for Prince of Persia. Not really ever got into them yet

[inner arrow]

I was young and edgy myself back the so I loved the game. Looking back tho... I miss Sands of Time

[cerulean basin]

Two Thrones and in particular Forgotten Sands toned it down quite a lot, but the latter didn't have as much impact anymore.

[cerulean basin]

There's an HD trilogy? 😮

[idle spear]

PS3 only I think

Same with splinter cell HD

[cerulean basin]

At least for Splinter Cell we're getting a full bona-fide remake

[inner arrow]

Let's hope it's bona-fide good too

[cerulean basin]

For Sands of Time... we'll see where that ends. I haven't seen anything since that first reveal trailer years ago, so I'm hoping for a fully improved remake when it finally resurfaces.

[lyric jetty]

It has been delayed like 2 times now so expectations are tempered

[idle spear]

The recent splinter cell games made the mechanics very simple and basic. I used to like the old hardcore style but I doubt they will go back to that

[cerulean basin]

They were definitely complex and full of options that most people never noticed. I get why they streamlined it quite a lot, but it's also not what people wanted from the series I guess

[hollow arrow]

good morning

[fiery python]

👋🏻

[cerulean basin]

I could never get used to the controls of the original Splinter Cell games, and I would always get detected and end up having to run and gun

[inner arrow]

Splinter Cell introduced the instakill button. Wow... innovation

[idle spear]

Super satisfying clearing levels on Pandora tomorrow and Chaos theory. There was a shadow meter on the screen and a lot of ways to clear missions either silent or loud if you had the skill

Same thing happened to all of them though, Ghost recon and Rainbow six all very simplified now by comparison. I kinda fell off with them now.

[cerulean basin]

Ideally, all games could get simplified for accessibility reasons, but still giving the choice for more expert players to handle things differently.
But of course that is extremely costly and not always possible without several concessions.

[inner arrow]

Streamlining games is only bad if certain studios do it

[idle spear]

They made Double agent quite a bit easier but still retained the difficulty there. Would be nice if they could go back to something like that.

[inner arrow]

If characters tell you how to solve a puzzle in a Sony game then that's okay and it's still a masterpiece. If Ubisoft does that it's immediately bad. We all know that lol

[cerulean basin]

Double Agent was definitely a good in-between, but the game didn't catch on as well as the previous ones

[idle spear]

The multiplayer on that was quite fun as well. One of my first online games with 360

[inner arrow]

I can gladly say that Koala Man is another great adult oriented cartoon show on Hulu

[cerulean basin]

You have Hulu in Germany? 😛

[idle spear]

I didn’t play the PS2 and Xbox version of Double agent but heard that was basically a different game as well

[inner arrow]

Skyrim runs incredible on the series s.

[unkempt trellis]

Hi

[surreal hamlet]

Yet another person consumed by Skyrim 🫠/j

Todd Howard has you, and he will not let go for another 10000 Skyrim releases

[obsidian raft]

There aren't any consoles left to release Skyrim on.

[surreal hamlet]

Who said we need a new console 😈

[fiery python]

They haven't re-released it for Series consoles and PS5 yet

[surreal hamlet]

I thought that's what the newest version was?

With the creation club add-ons and stuff

[obsidian raft]

There's a PS5 version. I was playing that before.

[fiery python]

I thought they were still running the PS4 version. Unless I missed another release.

[surreal hamlet]

I think the game was enhanced for series X but not sure if that counts as a new release or an upgrade

[cinder veldt]

6?

[obsidian raft]

1080p 60FPS on S and 4K 60FPS on X.

[cinder veldt]

Did you give or get?

[obsidian raft]

Skyrim is a game that I play at 1080p though as the game is quite old now.

[cinder veldt]

So you got a series x and 6 controllers for that? Neat ig

[obsidian raft]

Waiting for the series X slim.

[cinder veldt]

But if that’s true or not idk, but whoever valued that 3ds overvalued imo

I thought generally the 3ds xl is less wanted to some

I got the other view from the scene

Guess it’s different for everyone, oh well enjoy you series x and controllers ig

[idle spear]

The limited edition 3DS models can be expensive. Not sure about the ordinary ones

[cinder veldt]

Oh the limited ones for sure are pricy

[idle spear]

Yeah on ebay all well over £500 new now

[cinder veldt]

Yeah overvalued if anything

If this really is a deal you got, you didn’t get scammed lol

[fiery python]

You got a Series X with more controllers than you could need in exchange for a 3DS. I'd hardly call that a scam.

So? As long as you have one that's usable you're fine.

Honestly, I think the other person got ripped off.

[cinder veldt]

Yeah, very much so imo

[sterile raven]

Hey is there a way the share screen your xbox using discord?

[cinder veldt]

Nah

[tired hare]

3ds xl why

[supple elbow]

Damn

I can also do it with a phone

@cinder veldt, I can confirm Sweden is in for the Oreo Xbox thingy 😄 Can't see from here if Denmark is eligible though... I'm hoping it will! https://stay-playful.oreo.eu/se/coming-soon

[cinder veldt]

Will it be special cookies orr?

[dark sparrow]

Why didn't no one tell me about this!?

[cinder veldt]

Ah as expected from the start, it was a troll

[fiery python]

Honda, stop with the caps

We don't need your play by play of your new Xbox.

[cerulean basin]

Because we all learned about it today?

[hushed hound]

If ur TV is broken just buy a new one, duh

I hope Series X is doing ok

Anyways

Today is so cold and without snow

Okay, and turn @ off as well

[serene kraken]

Just got my first ever proper Lego set

[bold bear]

Which one

[serene kraken]

The Alyssa Milano ship from guardians of the galaxy

[bold bear]

Ah. Good stuff

[serene kraken]

It was reduced from €160 to €55. I've been looking to get into Lego recently and I couldn't turn down that deal

[fiery python]

Good price

[bold bear]

Jfc

[fiery python]

That set is getting retired at the end of this year too.

[hushed hound]

Lucky

[serene kraken]

Do you have it?

[fiery python]

No, I don't have that one currently.

[serene kraken]

I got it in Tesco so check your local

[fiery python]

There's only a Tesco Metro here, the corner shop type ones, so they won't have it in there.

[bold bear]

Rrp in uk is £140 and i paid 79 for mine on Amazon

[serene kraken]

Bummer

[fiery python]

I've got enough sets to build at the moment any way.

[bold bear]

Were any other sets on good discount

[serene kraken]

I don't think I'm going to try make it until my week off at the end of the month

I think the newest batmobile was on sale too but there wasn't any left

[fiery python]

Working on the Vader helmet at the moment.

[hushed hound]

I used to build from lego lots of stuff when i was a kid, i will do it again

[serene kraken]

My friend has that one

[bold bear]

I have a big table i need to clear then i can build some modular buildings i have been sitting on

[serene kraken]

I think it looks gross tbh

I wasn't talking about spanac

[trail harness]

It tastes better than it looks

[hushed hound]

Pancakes better

[serene kraken]

Pancakes and spam would be a good combination

[hushed hound]

Never tried that, so idk

[warped pendant]

that sounds awful

[serene kraken]

I haven't either but pancakes and bacon is awesome, so I'm guessing spam would be too

[warped pendant]

unless you meant like

spam on the side

cause first thing coming to mind was like...kimchi pancakes

[fiery python]

Not really different to people having bacon with pancakes and syrup to be fair.

[serene kraken]

Yeah like fried slices of spam

[warped pendant]

having spam cooked into pancake batter sounds awful though

[hushed hound]

KFC Vegetarian Twister is so good

[serene kraken]

I'm not a fan of stuff cooked into pancakes. I always like stuff on the top or side

I've been craving some KFC

[hushed hound]

Jerry's Pizza Salad >>> KFC Salad

[idle spear]

Haven't had KFC in ages

[serene kraken]

All the chain fast food places are at least a 30 minute drive from me

It annoying but my waistline is grateful

[blissful reef]

Are there 4k uhd monitors for around 100-200$

[astral saffron]

KFC 100 piece bucket is great

[hushed hound]

Alienware monitor is just great

[serene kraken]

Is that popcorn chicken? Because I can't imagine being able to carry a bucket with 100 pieces of the normal stuff

[fiery python]

100 piece skip

No i play GTA Online

[long locust]

[slender flume]

[hushed hound]

I barely play GTA 5, is just boring, i only do wheel streak that's it

[slender flume]

i guess no awnser

[cinder veldt]

Off road tires, it doesn’t really change anything there is just a good car that can fix that

[long locust]

Jedi it’s on the series s same thing with the x to

[slender flume]

ribky

but is it only series s and x is what i mean

[long locust]

Idk about the Xbox one

[limpid flicker]

The game isn't out yet, but I think the crossgen period is over now... or nearly over?

[granite verge]

You didn't even wait a full 2 minutes for a response :/

[slender flume]

it say ompoisted for xbox series s and series x

[long locust]

Yh it’s out already and there is a sale rn

[serene kraken]

According to Google (by typing in your question) Jedi surviver is not available on PS4 or Xbox one

[limpid flicker]

Wait it is? Oops

[slender flume]

Optimized for Series X|S

[limpid flicker]

Did it just drop?

[serene kraken]

The game isn't out until St Patrick's Day

[long locust]

game companies are going to stop releasing games on old gen

[slender flume]

i did that but i want to double check

[granite verge]

PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S
It won't be on older consoles

[long locust]

old gen cannot support new titles anymore

[hushed hound]

Upgrade people upgrade

[long locust]

I have a Xbox series s it’s pretty good compared to the x

[umbral mountain]

Even with the slight downgrade in appearance it’s still very sensual indeed

ingame apperences

[long locust]

the best time to get one was during the winter special

[umbral mountain]

I got mine today for half off so I ain’t complaining 🙂

[limpid flicker]

Y’all want that NVMe drive. It’s good stuff.

If current gen had no other improvements, that would still be a big deal.

[obsidian raft]

Yeah, it's awesome on a 1080p TV.

Try Chorus on game pass, looks and runs excellent on Series S.

[blissful reef]

do you guys know of any good price 2 in 1 laptops so I can have an easier time editing and doing streaming stuff

[fiery python]

We’re not personal shoppers Bobby

[long locust]

by a pc at that point it’s overall better

[blissful reef]

Already have one

i checked the trailer

[delicate salmon]

Will Xbox ever be able to record voice audio 🗿

[slender flume]

my brothers response

they need to remove it off the xbox one store

[obsidian raft]

Ordered an ambilight TV on Amazon, says arriving before 10pm.

[long locust]

nice

[slender flume]

it can gavin

[sullen forum]

It records your own voice audio just fine. If you mean your party, it doesn't do that intentionally, for privacy of the party members who don't have a way to given their consent.

[tall moat]

Yup

So I'm looking for headset suggestions. I have a off brand one but I share it with my husband

[obsidian raft]

I haven't tried the recording features as I don't have a headset yet but I will get one.

I've heard turtle beach headsets are excellent.

[sullen forum]

Any particular features / budget you're looking for Rosalia?

[cinder veldt]

Only streams tho right?

[tall moat]

I'm trying to stay under 80 since the majority of my day is at work and it's not going to be used. Durability is the only other thing I'm looking for due to having two large dogs that think I'm a chair

[sullen forum]

Should apply to game capture clips as well.

[tall moat]

I bought my husband one that was from Walmart and we both like it but it was clearance so idk if they have anymore

[serene kraken]

I have the Xbox wireless one, but for a good cheap one I'd recommend the steeleseries artic 3

[cinder veldt]

Is this with some recent insider update? Because it doesn’t record own voice for clips

[sullen forum]

Oh, yeah, your own voice won't record for clips, correct.

Your own voice is just streams.

Clips is just the game only

[cinder veldt]

Hope to see it implemented in the future, who knows

[serene kraken]

I have the artic 3s for my PS and they are very comfortable, and the mic slips inside the headset when not in use.

[cinder veldt]

I also have them, but on one ear they are getting uncomfy

[tall moat]

Mine are RIG 400

[trail harness]

I have a Bose headset that works very well, albeit expensive

[sullen forum]

I think the headsets I hear recommended the most for the 80 and below range tend to be the Steelseries Arctis 3 and one of the HyperX ones (can't remember which). RIG tend to hold up well as well I think

[lyric jetty]

Cloud 2 probably for the HyperX

My go-to pair

[sullen forum]

Rosalia, not sure if this is the same RIG 400 (since apparently there's an HX and an HC), but Target looks to have 400 HC available for shipping for $50 still: https://www.target.com/p/rig-400-hc-wired-performance-gaming-headset-for-xbox-series-x-s-xbox-one-playstation-4-5-nintendo-switch-pc/-/A-84757052

If you like that one already, may as well stick with it 🙂

[tall moat]

Well I bought the one I have on clearance for 20 but I haven't been at Walmart long enough it see if they had any more

[sullen forum]

Worth checking, could have been Walmart just trying to clear shelf space 🙂

[tall moat]

I don't use target for personal reasons and I won't give them my money

[sullen forum]

Fair enough, I just did a quick search and it came up in the first page of results

I didn't dig deeper

[tall moat]

Though 50 isn't bad price wise

[serene kraken]

There should be a lot of deals on for the January sales

[compact ledge]

hello

[obsidian raft]

I'll check that one out.

[tall moat]

I did find a game that suits my style though

I think it's call of duty infinite warfare.

[lyric jetty]

Very good campaign

Zombies was quirky fun. Multiplayer is dead now though

[fiery python]

Definitely one of the best.

[shrewd echo]

That was a great campaign, clearly rushed at the end because Activision get crazy if a COD campaign lasts more than 10 hours.

[sharp osprey]

who plays kinect sports?

[swift thistle]

IW campaign and zombies were the best parts if it

The multiplayer would've been fine if they didn't use the AW system where guns had varients

But it ended up saturated with NV4 Fallouts last i remember

[lyric jetty]

At least the base versions of new guns could be earned for free via challenges unlike AW and BO3

[swift thistle]

BO3 stuck with just adding new guns and i was fine with that.

[vale kite]

I casually had a breakdown last night and still came to work today that’s adulting for ya

[vale kite]

Ahh I used to play years ago on the Xbox 360 Kinect good times

[inner arrow]

Damn. What an adult adult move 😛

[serene kraken]

I've basically enjoyed every cod campaign I've played. They are dumb fun usually

[swift thistle]

The only campaign with a bad story would be BO3, but it makes up for it with coop

[unborn gale]

Wii sports >

[swift thistle]

train go boom

[serene kraken]

I can't remember much of the story to any cod campaign, they are just like pew pew boom boom and it makes me happy

[inner arrow]

A lot of cod games have bad story tho. Suddenly appearing in some part of the world for some stupid reason is always what makes these campaigns kinda questionable. But that's their charm I guess

[young grotto]

Computer

[serene kraken]

Hey Bill, huge fan

[inner arrow]

If you catch the bad guy in the first 3 levels there will be an extremely stupid reason why he either escapes or you have to let him go... This trope has been a stable for the game for years now

[serene kraken]

I don't even pay attention to where in the world I am most of the time while playing the campaign

[inner arrow]

No. I wanted to at first... but I am trying to save a bit of money rn

[proud wagon]

hes my friend, he said he was banned 💀💀💀

[fiery python]

No he wasn't.

[fiery python]

Ah, fair enough

[inner arrow]

And since it's really not selling well I think it will end up in EA Play in a few months anyway

[fiery python]

I was going to ask if you needed the achievements for winning each tier online because I'm currently boosting the 25 online playlists.

[inner arrow]

I am not that much of an achievement hunter tbh. But if you need help I still have 5 hours from the trial. We could do it tomorrow tho since I am not feeling well enough to play longer sessions sorry

[fiery python]

No, it's fine. I already have the achievements for getting the wins. I just need to complete a total of 25 online playlists which I'm boosting with an alt, but figured I could give someone else the chance to get the wins for those achievements and you're the only person I recall saying anything about playing it.

[inner arrow]

Ah that makes sense. Is online sparse right now like the matchmaking? I think it might get more online players again when it comes to EA Play

[fiery python]

Pretty sparse. It only allows 16 people per instance and not many people start races. When they do the groups get about 4 people max.

[inner arrow]

Oof. That doesn't sound good.

[fiery python]

Which really sucks because they put in an achievement for finishing a playlist in a group of 8. 😒

[inner arrow]

Well if it comes to EA Play we might be able to get a group of 8 together more easily.
Not really if and more when 😛

[fiery python]

That will be the only achievement I'll have left by the end of today. I'll probably try and set up a session on TA to get it done when I'm back from holiday.

[inner arrow]

Or like that yeah. Usually gets a group together quickly

[hollow birch]

Has anyone here any experience with Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts? How is it?

[fiery python]

Poor mans Sniper Elite

[warped pendant]

LOL

[fiery python]

Ugh, maybe I'll have two achievements left at the end of the day. I thought I was further into the 25 playlists but it says I've only done 10. It's three races per playlist, so taking longer than I'd like.

[hollow birch]

It's on sale now with Ghost Warrior 3 included. I thought I'd give it a go.

clears the persistent storage

#helpfulsam

[merry palm]

Lol

[lyric jetty]

The Blu-ray persistent storage in case you’re wondering which storage

[waxen charm]

If i clear it, will it effect anything?

[molten briar]

but not the mac storage

[merry palm]

Yes ofc it will, otherwise it wouldn't be a option

[waxen charm]

yeah but i mean in terms of performance

[lyric jetty]

It will effect the blu-ray persistent storage

[young grotto]

????

[waxen charm]

So in simpler terms, it basically clears cache?

Which means im not erasing any important data

i just wanna make sure i dont do anything wrong once i click it lol

[lyric jetty]

Click it and find out

[merry palm]

Smh lol

[waxen charm]

im not near my xbox

Hey this kinda random but can anyone recommend a gaming keyboard with nice colours (i can move this to another channel if asked)

[waxen charm]

wow performance wise things feel great, i guess i cleared a bunch of cache that i had storing up from 2017 to now lmao

[merry palm]

Like...rgb or the actual keyboard being colorful?

[surreal hamlet]

Like the keys have colour other than black, RGB is optional but nice

[fluid creek]

from "not near my console" to "pushed the button" awfully fast

I was in the other room lol
