I still pre-order all the time. If I know I’m buying it on day 1 anyway I may as well pre-order to get whatever bonuses I can with it. Then like you said with some games that may not get a wide release that pre-ordering them is the only way you can get a copy. There’s a few games in my collection I got that way which…

I seriously thought this was satire and dumbfounded when it turned out to be true. With stories like this how is The Onion still around? Even South Park gave up when they couldn’t compete with the news for ridiculous stories. 

I’m waiting for a PS5 slim too since I’m fine with playing cross-gen games on my PS4 Pro. I was kinda weary about Spider-Man Miles Morales but they really optimized it to run really good on PS4 Pro. I’m fine with playing Horizon and God of War on PS4 too. I hope I get a PS5 by the time Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine…

No worries! I haven’t gotten around to doing it yet. Now I’ll have to really decide what I want to do with them. 

Thanks! I didn’t know this was an option for individual devices. I always thought if I set it to 30 days on my phone it would automatically go to 30 days on my mac and ipad. I’ll have to consider this since my iCloud storage is 40GB for messages but on my actual iPhone it’s 5GB. So it’s not as bad as I thought it…

That’s happening to me lately. All the things I love and grew up with are now hitting their 25-35 anniversaries. Also the ‘90's were 10 years ago and ‘80's were 20 years ago, you can’t tell me any different!

I believe it was a TED talk where they talked about smart tattoos. They’re made from biosensitive ink and can be used to monitor body temperature, blood sugar, or if you’re dehydrated.

Thanks for those! I bookmarked them to read later when I have some time.

Thank you! I felt really dumb about NFT and Crypto because I consider myself tech savvy but I can’t figure out the blockchain. I also don’t understand what the benefits are if any.

The messy history the game had! But yes I had considered that too that GoldenEye will also release on Switch. 

My nephews both finished the game on Legendary, so that’s showing my age since I’m getting up there. So I’ve heard mixed messages about the Legendary difficulty with Kotaku saying it’s the hardest Halo on Legendary but the Halo community is saying it’s the easiest Halo on Legendary.

Like with Xbox Cloud Streaming, I can play Series X games on the original 2013 Xbox One. I’d love to be able to stream some PS5 games to my PS4!

For me yes. I have around 200 PS1-3 discs that aren’t being used since my PS2/3 no longer work, still have a working PSone though! One of the big selling points was BC on Xbox, it’s nice being able to play 4 generations on one console. 

That’s me! I have like 200 PS1-3 discs that I can’t do anything with. I’m hoping Analogue will come around one day with a console that at least played PS1 and 2 games.

I’ve never understood why that was a thing to not be able to download directly to Vita. Like Silent Hill, it’s available on the PS3 store but not Vita and you can buy it there and transfer it to Vita. Which is what I wanted to do but my PS3 was like “it’s time for me to sunset” and burned up. My poor PS2 the video out…

Especially since Konami has been on this kick lately of releasing collections of other series. If they announced a Metal Gear complete collection for PS5 I’d probably buy it before the console. I’ve also been holding out for a Silent Hill collection but after the HD ports flopped due to software issues, like missing…

That’s me and the GoldenEye Remaster for Xbox One. I’ve long been hoping Phil pulled off some licensing magic to get that game released finally. A year or two ago the full playthrough leaked online and earlier this month it popped up on an achievement tracking site. That same day the 007 twitter account posted they…

Same for me. If the game is Series X optimized I’ll usually pick performance mode to get the 60fps but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying games that are still at 30fps.

Meanwhile I’m struggling on normal...

oh yeah those challenge swaps, I think I have like 30 of those.
