I’m in the US and the plan that I’m currently on is $170 for 3 phones and a watch. The only way I can think of it costing $150 for a single person is if they got the highest plan option available and bought a new phone along with it.

They even learned with that when they brought it back again. The 2nd time it was an app exclusive but I’m not sure there was a limit of how many you can add. Being reasonable I only asked for 2.

I’m bugged by that. Like yeah sure I’ll give you an email if you ask for one but my cell # to play the game? I played OW briefly on a free weekend and thought I’d give OW2 a shot but if I need to register my # with them just to play they’re crazy.

Bowser, I’m going to kick your ass! I tell you what.

I’ve always wanted a long box copy of the game. I still remember seeing it at blockbuster and never hearing about the game. I was sucked in by that cover art and when I read the back of the box I knew I had to play it. It just took a while since it was always rented out.

I figure xCloud and PS Now would hang on since they’re an all you can eat type of system. But I see it more as a complimentary service, since it’s included in other services. I can play a quick race in Forza Horizon 5 on my phone or download/stream it on my Series X. It’s also nice being able to play Series X games on

Probably a long while. It’s $5 on its own and pretty much part of every Apple bundle. It does go across the whole ecosystem too so you can play games on iPhone, iPad, Macbook, and Apple TV. I’ve been enjoying it and they have a decent selection. The best part about it is no MTX and free DLC. 

I haven’t used it on 5G outside of the house yet but from what I’ve experienced at home and when I’m at my sister’s WiFi works great. Surprisingly it works well when streaming on Xbox. I think I’m going to end up just getting a Razor Kishi V2 for the cheapest option.

I’m going to do my best. I already stopped buying most games on day 1 unless it’s something I really want. Really I’m only planning on getting Callisto Protocol day 1 since I have enough Best Buy rewards to basically get the game free.

It grew on me and I use it more now than I did back then. Felt weird when I was playing Uncharted while waiting to get an oil change in 2022. I normally take my Switch but decided to use my Vita.

That G Cloud handheld looks nice and would be perfect me to play GamePass on it. But the price of it keeps me away, I’d rather wait and put the money towards a Steam Deck.

I canceled my pre-order once I started looking at memory cards. The cost of the system was right at $249 but after adding a game and memory card that tacked on another $100. So I ended up waiting a year to buy one. It was funny on launch day people were trading in their PSP and PSP Go in droves to gamestop. I happened

Ubisoft uses Ultimate Edition for the release copy that includes the DLC. They could just keep the name and slash the price. 

That’s why I loved PAX South. It always felt like a mini-E3 to me with the addition of tabletop gaming. Of course since I can’t have nice things I have to travel to Seattle or Boston if I want to go to PAX again.

So point taken! The times did feel safer back then which I guess was due to ignorance since news and such wasn’t crammed down our throats. I never worried about being kidnapped or bothered by anyone. 

I’m hoping to go next year, so I’ll try to remember that!

Same here. I guess I was responsible and trustworthy enough that my parents would drop me off at the arcade with some money for tokens. Those were also different times where it was more safe to leave a 10 year old alone or with some friends at the local arcade.

you deserve that star

I gave it a try when it released on 360. I played it for around 10 hours and after the first heist I decided the game wasn’t for me. I watched the rest of the game in YouTube videos to see what happened.

To specify, I did do that but over the 2 week period I made it 10 hours in and immediately sold it. So I should have said it better...I wouldn’t say I really played the game since I only spent 10 hours with it but that was enough. This was back on the 360 when it released and thankfully I was able to get most of my
