Heads up!  Best Buy is also offering the same deal if you prefer to shop with them!

Yeah it strikes me as “I want my ex to validate my growth and change.” He doesn’t really want her back, he wants to be forgiven for whatever he was doing that led to her leaving and maybe hear her acknowledge that he looks great and is doing well. He didn’t give her much of a voice in the story, just focused vaguely…

I still paint and make my art with traditional tools and methods.  I think we’re approaching a sort of renaissance for traditional mediums as more and more people want to own an “original”.  Getting a digital print of something is nice, but the original is unique and valued.

I like the Cinco Midi Organizer

I feel like the way where people choose sides and the next chapter comes out based on overall player base has been tried and kinda fails in many ways. There is rarely a good split between factions that leads to “fair” story telling in those situations, and being on the “losing” team makes the players feel like their…

SUPER STAR for bringing up Thomas Pynchon!

I have them and they’re awesome!  Worth the price, IMO

Ahh Fuku-san.  My favorite character

Yeah that’s the same experience I have. It’s usually a stable but slightly pixelated image during high intensity scenes or fast motion, but then will suddenly look smeared and blocky for NO REASON.... and then back to normal.  *shrugs*

I never use Wifi for SteamLink. It’s terrible. Ethernet only! Distance and corners with Ethernet aren’t an issue, though you can only go something like 1000 meters with Ethernet (which would be enough distance to go around my entire house TWICE).
My computer connects to a gigabit switch, then to the router.  The…

I think latency is part of the issue, but I consider the view to be just as important.  If it looks like garbage, I wouldn’t even play it long enough to find out the input lag is terrible.  I don’t play many FPS games, though, and definitely no PvP games.  Lag doesn’t affect me as much as visuals.

I am pretty tech agnostic: I game on a PC, own all three current gen consoles, have an Android and Mac tablet, a Mac laptop, and an iPhone. I work on Linux devices all the time and do some programming in a special fork of Linux pretty much weekly.
I wanted to love Android. I really did. I kept going back to it because…

yeah and it’s not TERRIBLE to stream via LAN, but the quality still isn’t great. I have it running on a machine with an Nvidia 1070 and over gigbabit ethernet to the Steam Link and it still gets kinda garbled. Totally playable, but not amazing.

Yes, you’re entirely correct, but we’re talking about Kotaku (as US based blog) that’s writing about a US based company (Google). Honestly, I don’t see Google or Amazon offering their streaming game services to other places in the world for a long time, if only because the market for games in the US is really only…

I think all of the people saying that streaming is the way forward are looking through some pretty limited lenses. Like you say in the article, the majority of the country has access to less-than-optimal broadband; and the price of that shitty connection isn’t worth what they’re getting.

I have one of the Steam…

Yeah I didn’t even think of that, since I haven’t paid attention to it. Kinda sucks to have that make XBL less worth it than before. I do like to play the occasional console game on my couch, but I do most of my gaming on PC.

Yeah the XB1 games are... not inspiring.  Not every month can be a winner, but you’d think they would want to front-load this summer with good free games since kids are out of school?

I will always regret the day I decided to sell my GC and PSO copy.  I didn’t have a TV that would handle component cables and I was moving out of state, so it didn’t make sense at the time.  Recently I almost spent 300 bucks on a factory sealed brand new GC and 70 bucks on PSO...  Just so I can play with the GC…

as I’m sure Kireek will tell you... you can play PSO Blue Burst on a bootleg server... I was playing this morning and it’s SO GOOD.

Oh I totally agree with this sentiment, to an extent. Also, I was in the service and I can say that the number of white supremacists varies depending on branch.

However, publicly, and depending on command, they will tear a racist to shreds.
