@Trmn8r let me just get this out of the way and tell you that for me to get upset or be insulted by anything you write would require me to care about your opinion first. I really don’t. Sorry.
@Wolfster I’m not rich. I’m as blue collar as it gets. But I was still able to trade in 2 Xbox One consoles and purchase two Series S consoles to get my kiddo and myself both in the door on current gen. Didn’t come out of pocket and was able to snap up all the groceries, like charge and play kits and an extra controller. Think I may have paid a bit for the controller, but it was a drop in the bucket after that kind of trade.
This was during the height of the pandemic or shortly thereafter when people were seriously hurting for consoles, even the last Gen ones, so it was a ripe time to trade.
Maybe you just need to learn how to hustle. Or check the trade values page on GameStop dot com. Using this rich argument is a big cop-out.
I haven’t gotten to play much besides some Pinball FX 3 tables…my account wouldn’t allow me to play games online, something about I needed to be signed into my main account, which I was. 🤷♂️ Hopefully it’s ironed out by the time I get out of work today, would like to dive into ESO and make an honest run at it. Seems like something I can veg to.
I don’t personally know much about Razer’s controllers, but the headsets and mice seem to be popular. I have a Kraken X wired headset and it’s pretty good.
I’d probably get an Elite controller before this. 200 is steep for what I’m seeing.
@munstahunta you gave it a try and that’s all that can be asked. It was pretty cool at the time it came out, as Xbox Live Arcade was a big deal in those days, and the twist at the end had people going . Not a Bioshock-level twist but a twist all the same
Not sure. Been having trouble getting into anything since I finished up Elden Ring. I played a few more chapters in Yakuza 0 but it’s just not hitting the spot right now. I downloaded Tales From The Borderlands…might run through that this weekend and upcoming week as a nice, chill, guided gaming experience. I also need to do some reading.
@Royalblues you’ll be fine! If you hit a wall it’s most likely bc you’re under leveled and/or with underleveled weapons or improper scaling. Once you get the Mimic Tear and upgrade him the game difficulty becomes pretty trivial up until the last boss
@CrazyJF I just recently started reading Leviathan Wakes. Good stuff so far. I quit watching the show after second season so I don’t spoil the books for myself

Re: Elden Ring Has Outsold Call Of Duty: Vanguard In The US
@PapaGlitch I’ve done the same thing with most of the Souls games. I think I may have purchased DS2 4 times
Re: Elden Ring Has Outsold Call Of Duty: Vanguard In The US
Easily the GOTY. Nothing else has come close (that I’ve played, anyway)

Re: Bethesda Delays Starfield And Redfall To First Half Of 2023
@Trmn8r Yeah bro. I’m not much of a gamer bc I’m not excited for two games out of thousands that will release this year.
Edit: maybe it’s only hundreds of games that’ll release. I honestly cba to check
Re: Bethesda Delays Starfield And Redfall To First Half Of 2023
I wasn’t looking forward to either of these. Delayed video games is a non-issue.

Re: Three Games Are Unexpectedly Free On The Xbox Store Right Now
@munstahunta bro play Braid all the way to the end. I’d be quite surprised if you still felt it to be an ugly and lame game.
