I’m team standard time. For myself it’s much more relaxing and feels normal. I’m also in the south in CST and during the summer I hate that our sunsets are at like 9pm and with temperatures staying over 100 consistently, it would be nice for it to start cooling down earlier. This year switching to Daylight really took…

I personally prefer SBMM, at least on a level where it tries to match you with people around the same rank as you. There were times in other games like Unreal Tournament and Halo PC where I’d join a server and be dominated constantly.

I’ve been debating that with my reward points. I always redeem a $100 gift card but I’ve thought about doing the 3 months of ultimate at a time. I still have 12 months left on my current sub and I’d like to max it out to 2025 if I can. 

The 360/PS3 era was weird with the amount of failure rates. Granted 360 had more but PS3 had similar issues with the YLoD. My PS3 got to the point where it doesn’t power on anymore and I have the BC model too. Not to mention how loud my PS3 got over time, same with my 360, both would sound like a jet engine taking off.

I guess I was mostly lucky with my 360. The first one I got was the Elite when it came out and that lasted me a year or so? Waiting for a replacement wasn’t too bad and I got a free month of Live with the replacement console. I only ever got it once but years later I did get the E74 error. I was part of the insider…

I primarily use Dolby Vision on my TV and to me HDR is a night and day difference to SDR. I think my TV model goes up to 1800 a peak brightness. So for HDR/Dolby Vision gaming I leave it set to around 1000 so I don’t go blind. 

I have a first gen Apple TV 4K as well and I feel the same way. It’s tempting sure but it’s not a central device I use regularly.

You’re not! I wasn’t a fan of the movies but I found the game to be enthralling and loved every second of it. I think that’s been the only GamePass game that I purchased after the fact. I do need to get around to get it for my Quest 2 to experience it that way.

I’m a console guy and I have really bad luck with my PS consoles. So far my PS1-4 don’t work anymore and the only PS consoles I have that work are PSP and Vita. So I’m a little weary with PS5.

That’s something I’ve wondered about in the US. Like why is box art and stuff so bland compared to other countries. Like with Link’s Awakening, I saw a post online that compared the US release to the Chinese release and it was a night and day difference with the boxart. The Chinese art was worlds above what we got.

I hope Nintendo can bring it back one day. If GoldenEye managed to get released there’s hope for Eternal Darkness!

I let it simmer for a while and watched all the trailers again last night. So I’m not totally bummed anymore by it. But yes you’re right, it’s been 10 years since the last game and they’re going all out. I also should know to manage my expectations and should have gone into this expecting teaser trailers. 

I’ve gotten 3 Xbox Series X and 1 PS5. So for me it’s more of a money issue right now. I’ve been waiting until Spider-Man 2 has a release date and hoping they’ll do a special edition console before purchasing one.

That’s probably the way I’ll get it but it’s more of a money issue than finding one. I can’t justify dropping $500 on a new console just yet.

I just hope Konami doesn’t act like SquareEnix and that they actually do release an Xbox version once the 12 months are up. Which I get since The Medium was Xbox exclusive for a year and now Silent Hill is PS5 exclusive for a year.

Looks like it’s just for PS5 with a year exclusive window. I probably won’t get to play it until 2024...

Long time Silent Hill fan and I’m happy to finally see the series return after all these years. That doesn’t stop me though from being nervous on what they’ll announce. The biggest to me is the rumor that it’ll be a PS exclusive, which luckily it’s also for PS4 according to the leak so I just need to get my PS4 Pro…

I’d say that’s the same reason 3D TV failed. I really enjoyed it and sad that it’s gone but I’m happy with my small collection. Also my TVs only came with 2 pairs of glasses and they’re not interchangeable since one is Sony and the other Samsung. So I can imagine the novelty wearing off for most people by needing to…

I haven’t tried it yet but BoboVR makes a comfort strap for Quest 2 with the focus being on exercise type games but can be used for anything. One of the main points of it is add-ons and they have a fan attachment for it. So there are 3rd party options for that.

I was surprised about all the different kills there are in AC Valhalla. They ranged greatly from violent to visceral. I had a hard time making it through the blood eagle scene. I actually had to look away from the TV!
