Halo Reach took 3 months maxing out the daily credit limit to reach max rank.  I guess everyone here wasn't there for those days...

I’m not naive. The entry price being $0 simply means more aggressive strategies for return on investment. I don’t care if “it was out of the goodness of their hearts”, this is a transaction. We get a fun, functioning game with a miminimally invasive (if not frustrating) monetization system as a compromise. It’s far…

Good lord, Gamers (TM) are entitled. The game is free, $0. And for the first time for a AAA game in the past few months, it just works. No lag, no crashing, no trouble finding a match. Even the frame rate is stable. In 2021, that’s a goddamn miracle. The game feels great to play, which again, is more than I can say…

This is why BD/SP felt like a good jumping back in point for me. No mega evolutions, no extra special items, no raids, and less complicated type advantages. I’ve gotten too busy/old to bother with learning all that stuff in one go.

Damn, even CD Project Red didn’t prevent you from playing a copy of Cyberpunk 2077 that you paid for...

My guess is they’re using filters and limited color grading to hide lower-budget cgi.  I’m sure it was a necessary compromise but it still hurts...

I’ve played every Forza title since Motorsport 2, it still hasn’t disappointed. FH5 is all fun with no grind. Doesn’t hurt that it’s gorgeous...

Another corporate move from Alphabet/Google, what a surprise. Can’t hurt someone’s feelings with a dislike but you can spew hate, prejudice, and misinformation all over the platform. Downvotes weren’t useful for combatting that content. Nope. Not at all /s.

TBF, Avengers (SE) would have sold gangbusters if it was the MCU versions of the characters (V.O. included). Otherwise, yeah, “games as a service” seems to have had its day, even Destiny (2) doesn’t sell like Destiny anymore...

Or duplicate then at least...

Because the save points are really rough in FC6. You can upgrade a gun, drive to a mission, beat it, watch the cutscene, only to get reset to an hour ago when the chopper you get into to leave the area decides to fly sideways and explode.

This is hilarious, but when the Devs get to this, can they fix the input lag and dead-zones? I thought I was going crazy until I went back to FC5 and could aim fine. At least 250 ms lag on response (even with wired controller) with an inner dead-zone too big to make fine aiming adjustments scoped up (I liked using a…

Didn’t Destiny 1 do this? Or at least scale the number of enemies?  I remember it being one of my main motivators of doing Nightfalls Solo...

Happy to see the cheaters go but a little concerned about performance.  Will this cause any new stutter? More input lag? Can someone more knowledgeable chime in?

*Looks at comments section...

I think the hair looking “more realisitic” actually makes the skin look less realistic by comparison. Might be the lighting. Damn I can’t wait for full ray tracing in games so we can stop having this issue...

I'm just here waiting 15+ seconds for the comments section to load now...

Just adding Racing Games (sans wheel) for the Controller camp and MOBAs for the M/KB...

I wouldn’t bother with anything but In-Store Pick-Up Drops from Target and the like. That’s how I got mine. He’ll need to sign up for a discord with a good bot/notification system and be logged in to the site (as well as set his preferred store and payment methods) ahead of time to get the best chances. I tried going…

Or those of us who have long since sold it...
