Not to mention Kat and Emile getting chainsawed in Gears 5

Not really, I forget to use mine so I have 10 saved up. It’s just nice if you want speedy progression through the pass. I’d just like to finish the pass before season 2 starts and I’m 65 right now. But as you said even if I don’t finish it I still have a chance to complete it during Season 2. 

That’s what I do! I did have this happen to me a couple of times though with either the server or my internet going out like about 1 min into my booster. Also another time I had less time than I thought so that makes about 3 boosters I’ve wasted.

Gears has had a mode like this before too

I’m surprised how much I’m loving it so far. I did notice an odd quirk though, is it my imagination or are shields stronger in Attrition? I find that I die extremely quickly and I can’t seem to do any damage. I thought it was me but I went to the other modes and I was slaying without a problem.

It worked for pretty much all other media too. My primary source of movies, tv, and music are from subscription service. Now gaming is headed that way too for me. 

I was gonna say this reminds me of Gears in the mode where the team has a set number of lives. I don’t recall a mode like this in past Halo either.

I’m torn on that since the game doesn’t give you any indication of which core it’s for, unless I’m missing something obvious...

Like I’ve been primarily using the Mark V core and last night I got a new armor color so I went to go equip it, only to find out it’s just for the Mark VII.

I’m surprised that she would be anti-vax. That’s just based on her tweets though and I may have missed some relating to that. I did see the backlash Rob got and he was humble like usual in his response. 

I use my launch Xbox One as a streaming device. Hard to believe it’s going on 10 years next year but it’s chugging along just fine. Combined with cloud gaming it’s still a usable system. 

Voice controls still exist through Google Assistant and Alexa. Walking by my tv and saying “hey google turn on my xbox” and have my Series X power up.

Mine did that, it was the kinect. I contacted support about it and they said it was going out and needs to be repaired. This was shortly before the stopped servicing kinect. I had family that wasn’t using theirs so they gave it to me. 

Being able to play the Series X Halo Infinite on my launch Xbox One is a delight.

Since I switched to wireless charging this hasn’t really been an issue. I’ve been using an Anker pad for my iPhone XS and when I got iPhone 13 Pro I decided to get a MagSafe duo. That’s been helpful since I can charge my phone, watch, and airpods with a single charger.

I guess that’s a good reason why they included weapons training. Next time I play I’m just going to do that and hold the trigger down for each gun.

There’s one map, training grounds I think, where I know exactly where it is. Other maps I rely on taking it from someone else. I know I could just use scan but when you’re constantly shot at it’s not worth it. 

I’ve played a few matches in BTB and didn’t have any issues. My issue with the challenges is how random the game modes are. Like I have one for win one game of oddball but can never get an oddball match. 

The Dead Rising series does though

That happened to me with AC Odyssey, the game was so overbearing that I stopped playing for nearly a year before I finally finished it. I know people really like Odyssey but for me it was one of the worst AC games released. The DLC was top notch though, much better than the main campaign. It also didn’t stop me from

He also did it with vaccine appointments last year. I saw an article that said he would be working with places to let people know had open appointments. I thought it was from one of those parody sites but it turned out to be true.
