@gollumb82 I'm playing Hellblade 2 and I think it's awesome, I don't know why everyone is speaking badly about it. It is one hell of an experience so far. If you think Hellblade 2 is one of the biggest disappointments of your life, maybe you should play ET on the Atari 2600 or Superman64 on the Nintendo 64. I could go on with a list of hundreds and maybe thousands of games that are worse than Hellblade 2. Speaking of a more modern game, maybe try Gollum and report back.

I'm playing Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions on Xbox 360, Hellblade 2 and Spanky the Monkey on PC and Touch Dic on DS. I might get around to playing some Dragon Wang if I can manage to pull out the Sega SG-1000.

I'm recording Spider-Man and Hellblade 2 on my YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/zydio1103

The first descendant looks good I'm just wondering how the experience will be without purchasing anything.

@Evilinsane I think it has gotten to the point that every time someone sees new games coming to Xbox, they automatically assume they are available on Game Pass. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

@No_Allegiance You're welcome.

@No_Allegiance I have a good site for a capacitor kit if you want it.

@ozkrmz Thank you and you take care as well.

@No_Allegiance I know, that's why I keep multiple refurbished and new consoles of each kind. Plus I have way too to much invested in games and accessories to let them become unusable just because a console malfunctions.

@No_Allegiance I just did that to one of mine a few weeks ago. It's a1.6 but I'm still keeping it alive.

They could have named it Dragon Age: Chupacabra Chihuahua and I would be ok with it as long as it was a good game.

@ozkrmz Thank you and I"ll be fine soon, the worst is over. I think I'll get back to gaming today.

When I get better I'm gonna start Hellblade II, I just finished the first one. I'm also playing through Spec Ops: The Line again after playing it years ago. I record all of my gameplay if anyone cares to watch. www.youtube.com/zydio1103

@ozkrmz Browntails are the caterpillar to the browntail moth and they have all of the poisonous hairs all over them. They are overpopulating this area. The hairs linger for up to 3 years. People breathe them in, they fly through the air and land on people's skin. I got extra lucky and got a huge concentration of them while cleaning up the yard that's in the woods. My whole body waist down is covered and some on my arms and chest. It's so bad it made me sick and get no sleep for days.

@Titntin Thanks, It's pretty bad when something keeps me from my Xbox. I haven't played in 3 days I think. I haven't gone that long in probably 10 years.

Nothing, because I am burning in hell, covered in browntail stings. It sucks so bad.

I have 3 Xbox Series X, 1 currently using and 2 Diablo IV bundles sitting new in box. I bought the last 2 when those bundles were $349 instead of $559 at Walmart. What a deal. So, no I will not be buying a new Xbox anytime soon. I bought the extra Series X's because they were cheap and I was preparing for them potentially going all digital. I also have multiples of previous gen Xboxes for preservation purposes.

All of these companies need to lower their sales expectations. There are more games than ever to choose from and people only buy so many. They can't expect every game they make to sell millions and millions and millions of copies. They need to get their expectations straight because they are letting go all of their talent. Eventually these big companies like embracer will have no talent left. When that happens everything will be a AA title because all of the talent will have moved to or will have formed other development teams and companies.

@rustyduck You can download the PC version for free. Actually you can download the PlayStation 1 version for free also.

@Kooky_Geezer Well aren't you all sunshine and rainbows.

No new Zelda, Mario, Horizon, Ratchet and Clank or Sonic, that blows. Xbox is so screwed, they won't last another month. Sony will buy them out soon and everyone will be happy.

@rustyduck I think they are working on it.

@Killabyte28 I think dated is what the gaming industry needs. We need to go back to the time when games were good and finished.

I missed everything after the Doom video because I spent the rest of the show cleaning my underwear and pants.

@TheSimulator They showed Gears 6, it's called Gears of War: E-Day

@InterceptorAlpha Awesome.

@rustyduck I hope you get it figured out because 4K looks awesome.

@InterceptorAlpha Did you mean 1080p should never look better than 4K on the same panel?

More like "Suicide Squad: Kill the Warner Bros."

@themightyant So... I guess it balances out for them?

@rustyduck 4K technically should look four times clearer than 1080p. That's why I commented, because it just doesn't seem right.

@Banjo- And all this time, I thought the PS5 shape was an inverted orograthahedron.

@rustyduck if 4K looks blurry to you, you may have a TV problem or an eye problem.

@JokerBoy422 I have never figured out why they do that, because it would be better for everyone if they would allow other companies to make wireless controllers. For some reason they allow other companies to make wireless headsets using the same technology, so who knows.

@mus422 I don't think Microsoft licenses the wireless technology for the controller.

@JokerBoy422 Microsoft doesn't make this controller. It's third party made by Hyperkin.

@FarmDog08 Everything doesn't have to be serious, "Farmdog". Maybe you should try it sometime. I'm sure someone laughed at that, so it would be considered a contribution. I also think your response contributes less to the thread than mine.

I think they are gonna finally announce the release the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory game. You know the one where Donald Trump is an Oompa Loompa and he runs amok in the chocolate factory and screws up everything.

@Kooky_Geezer Wait, what? What do you mean getting nothing in return for their own players?

@Fishysensei Dude, that is my favorite Switch game!!!

@InterceptorAlpha Oh Damn, I remember that game. I tried to play it and it just sucked really bad. I'm glad I didn't pay anything for it and it was free with Games with Gold. At least they got the name correct.

@NEStalgia It seems that vanity has taken priority over everything else for some reason. It really confuses me sometimes, because in a lot of cases vanity serves no function but it ends up replacing function.

I love the first game. I still play it on a regular basis. Make sure you play this with some good IEM's or headphones and Dolby Atmos turned on.

@OldGamer999 I get what you're saying but games aren't always supposed to be like that. Games are an artistic expression first and when humans are creating art they're not always thinking about technical things. I do understand that these are products that they sell to people and unfinished crappy games are not acceptable, but there is a balance in there somewhere that needs to happen.

@OldGamer999 It's even worse if you haven't played the game.

@Banjo- Probably.

@theduckofdeath He probably watched 30 seconds at a time and skipped ahead 20 or 30 minutes after every 30 seconds.

@Ver Well I've been sitting here contemplating all day if I should forgive you or not. I mean that kind of crossed the line and I'm just not sure. I'm obviously just messing with you. It takes a lot more than that to hurt my feelings, but apology accepted. Edit: I almost forgot to reply to the rest of what you said. I had no idea they were making that much money on Game Pass. If that's the case then maybe it is working and what is good for gaming, who knows. I think as long as they put quality first and it is still affordable, then it might be okay. I don't want them to have 500 games that suck instead of five that are awesome.

@NEStalgia I must be in the minority because I never care about if a brand is cool or not or if everyone else is doing it. I look at the facts, the specifications and if that product is going to work for me better than the others available. I guess I'm just a weirdo.
