The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller. Tons of customization options, great ergonomics, 1 year warranty. There’s really no question. Plus with consoles and GPUs out of stock everywhere, it’s really the only way to improve your gaming experience at the moment. Yeah, there are reports of stick drift, but they improved the…

I don’t have any context for this but it still got me.
Yeah, that’s the conversation we had with our ten year old (different words though). “If you don’t know what a word means, don’t repeat it.”
Pillars of Eternity. I want to love isometric Infinity Engine style rpgs as much as I love the later Aurora Engine stuff, but it just doesn’t draw me in as much.
I will preorder the most exclusive deluxe version of any new Crimson Skies game at any price, even if they let Activision make it, if Timothy Omundsen returns to voice Nathan Zachary.
Name a worse companion than Solas in a Bioware game. I'll wait.
I was already doing most of my gaming on PC. Given that every Xbox “exclusive” launches on PC the same day, it just doesn’t make sense to upgrade. I can take that $500 bucks and by a new GPU in a year or two. That being said, PC gamers are used to incremental improvements in performance every year or so, rather than…
“it’s hard to imagine there’s an Xbox 360 user out there who doesn’t have Xbox G0ld and plans to spend $300 to $500 on an Xbox Series S or X but still doesn’t plan to get Xbox Gold.”
How's the thumbstick tension? Stiff like 360 or loose like One?
Diablo III and Tomb Raider.
Probably a good idea to check reddit if you have older consoles. There are subs for each one and the people there will have info on specific issues. For example if you have an original Xbox there are some things you need to do or it's going to brick.
Liara's alternate armor from Mass Effect 3.
Master Chief Collection. I missed Reach the first time around so I'm working on it now.
Alabama still does Robert E. Lee’s birthday instead of “alongside” MLK day.
Tangentially related, but I’m a 36 year old white man and only last week learned that Bessie Coleman, the first black woman pilot in the history of the universe, died in a plane crash at an airfield that later became the high school that I attended. Apparently they added a plaque about her to the front of the school…
Doom (2016). I’ll probably beat it tonight though, so maybe Friday the 13th or Rise of the Tomb Raider after that.
Gonna have to go with Twisters over Blake’s. Twister’s users normal scrambled eggs instead of that weird egg-patty thing that Blake’s uses.
I’m flying all day Saturday so probably Pokémon: Fire Red on the plane.
Albuquerque: Use extreme caution entering an intersection just after your light turns green. I’ve lived all over the US and Albuquerque has the most flagrant red light runners I’ve ever seen.
Albuquerque got mentioned for breakfast burritos, but I’d add green chile cheeseburgers as well. You can get them everywhere, but I’d recommend the Owl Cafe. It’s an old Rte 66 diner with great ambiance.
