Thanks for all the details! You’re making me want a Switch even more. With everything else I have going on in life, I don’t get that much time for video games, so I barely get to cover everything I want to play on my PS4 and my PC. Still, the Switch is very tempting. Maybe I’ll get it around the holidays or…

Unless you manage to open it up and clean it, I think your monitor’s done.

When I first started seeing stuff about this game, it looked like a cute, gimmicky fighting game that might be fun for a few rounds. Like Fight Night, but with a little more depth.

Rob Liefeld thinks that about everything.

I really wish I saw this sooner, the lightning deal on the router disappeared quick.

This is a stupid comment, but not for the reasons others are posting. None of that ‘bad for you’ food is going anywhere. It will just have to be fried in oil that doesn’t contain trans fats.

Since the question was whether there was a solution coming, I took his response to mean there’s no plans yet to do it (so from Nintendo’s perspective it’s low priority) but they know people want it, so probably eventually they’ll do something about it.

The Gulf of Mexico is still recovering from the last BP fuck-up of this magnitude.

Nice!

I kind of want a Switch now.

Great article, I appreciate the details aside from what graphics card you need. I didn’t really know that you need HDMI 2.0a cables for UHD/HDR.

Even the 1060 can push Overwatch at 4k/60

Here’s an interesting post on building a PC to beat Project Scorpio/XBox One X. They actually go over two PC builds: one that is pretty comparable to the One X, and one that is meant to outclass the One X.

I can’t really argue with this.

This is such a good game. I’m glad to see Psyonix having such success with it. I’ve got it on PS4 and I just got a gaming PC, so I’ll probably get it on Steam, too.

They’re great where I live, which is an older complex but not super old (built in the 70's or 80's I think). For me, it’s just as good as being directly connected with an ethernet cable.

Plus, 10 times is a record for winning a single grand slam.

5ghz is better, but it’s still more prone to packet loss than a signal traveling down a wire. Congestion is much less of a serious issue for 5ghz, but it still exists.

This is a really interesting feature. You really should be using a wired connection for online gaming. I think perhaps fighting games in particular suffer on a wireless connection.

I love it! The mobility factor is the better feature, but the pilot grapple is icing on the cake.
