Still playing Shredders and loving every moment of it. What a great snowboarding sim.

I’m refreshing majornelson.com every few hours hoping it’s live today!

IMO, get 2200mah+ batteries. 1100 is too little.

@fiskadoro I’ve never played the franchise but follow F1 and enjoy arcade racers. Should I play it?

Thanks for the recommendation Fraser - I started Shredders a few days ago and love it. There are quirks, being such a small dev team, but as a snowboarder it’s such a great game.

Got it. Don’t buy many games but with Elden Ring and now this, lots of rewards.

Simple: remove Gold entirely. Make it free to all.

@Nightcrawler71 IIRC you can play with three bots, but yes it’s always a four person party.

70% GP, 25% digital, and a few discs when they’re very cheap.

Xbox Handheld please!

GOTY 2022. Move over Elden Ring.

Finishing The Ascent, some hours into Elden Ring, and will try Shredders.

Not an HP fan but the gameplay looks engaging and deep.

Love to hear it. The beauty of a purely SP experience is that you can wait until a steep sale to get the game, and not miss out on anything!

This will give me time to actually read the rest of the books, and maybe watch the movies too...

Wow I’m surprised how few ya’ll buy! At 11 so far.

@fraserG how hard are the achievements?

Nah give my backlog a break 😂

Thank you! Agree 100%. Don’t let GaaS distract you from the gameplay. Ignore cosmetics and just play Halo!

@RedShirtRod A better version of black flag is all I’ve wanted for years.

Valhalla has turned not only into my favorite of the franchise (dethroning IV) but one of my favorite RPGs. Video games are great!

@Fulkaffe I know, amazed. The people most loyal to the game are the only ones without a discount.

Too many! Elden Ring, LEGO DC Super Villians, and Wolf Among Us are my top priorities.

@pip_muzz instead of dropping the game, just ignore the challenges. The per match XP is enough to level the pass. And even if not, it’s all cosmetic. Enjoy the game instead!

While I didn’t preorder, I fell to the hype. After reviews were clear it was great, I bought it. My first attempt at a souls game.

I feel like the Microsoft wireless ones last that long, but maybe that's just a feeling...

I saw early that framerate was more stable on PS, has it improved on the Series X with this patch?

@AdamCorela saving that line for later use.

Honestly, my favorite feature of the new generation. I can't imagine life without it. Huge huge selling point of the console hardware. When I have to boot up a game cold I am always shocked at how long it takes in comparison.

@uptownsoul The S was designed as a “weak” device. You’re acting like it’s not operating as intended. This is not a problem, it’s a feature: low cost and low performance, with the next-Gen features like quick resume, fast SSD, etc. They’ve always maintained that it was capable of good performance but nothing like the X.

I bought my S for a small 1080p monitor. I hope they can add some options!

No thanks, not at all.

@Thenewguy there is no way they release anything buggy. It’ll be their death.

Quick Resume has to be my favorite feature of this generation. Now to decide what to pin…

@Kooky_Daisuke yeah I’m curious if they’ll be able to work out a deal before the sale.

@OliverOwen yeah this is more content than a lot of full releases. I’ll still wait for a sale since why not but very pleased with the amount of content they’re releasing.

@Dezzy70 Of course, nearly everyone loves top end AAA. The point is that there is plenty of great AA and Indie games - that are often better than the AAA games. Not everything needs to be AAA.

@Dezzy70 what is with people’s obsession with AAA games? There is a lot lot more to this hobby than blockbuster games.

@OliverOwen I’m with you - I have yet to play Rogue or Syndicate but have put more hours in AC then any other series by far. I don’t know what it is but I just love them.

Where are they getting their numbers? Anyone know?

TA has it still in second based on their data of a sample of Xbox users: https://www.trueachievements.com/news/type/chart

And that’s based on 2 million global users.

I’ve made it this far without playing it, why stop now?

I’m still having loads of fun with it. I can wait.

None. Sorry, none my jam. Will be playing Hitman, Halo, and Gears 2.

What qualifies as a survival game?

@umeandgames don’t worry - if it isn’t Gears, the old versions still play great. They’ve updated the first and 2 still looks great.

Ended up getting Max Payne 3. Excited to try.

@Royalblues good call

… is it too early to ask for some old Activision titles?

@Medic_Alert I have negative hype for it. Whatever their track record, every game is new. I need gameplay and polish. Anyone can make concept art.

Tony Hawk is a no-brainer - the remake was hugely popular. Bring back 3+4, and make a new one!

@WCB stack up three years worth and keep it topped off!
