Dat retail shelf space tho

My wife isn’t a gamer by any means, but we recently got SUPER hooked on the local co-op in Overcooked.

How does that have any value to Microsoft? Why would your access to a digital game that they have virtually unlimited copies of be worth more than $6 to them?

The thing is, you’re not really “trading” anything in. MS really wouldn’t be getting anything out of it, so it’s not much of a trade. All this would do is entice people to finally make the switch to digital (which they should have started doing in 2011). My point is, $6 is pretty good since you aren’t giving the…

Oh, that makes sense. It might make expert sets at least approachable for skilled, yet not god-like players.

I had my own AT-AT defeat fail. So close to winning as the rebels

“A guy’s old Xbox 360 kicked the bucket, and you’ll never believe what happened next.”

The idea is to refresh interest in the franchise with a remastered collection before releasing the next major entry. Microsoft did the exact same thing with the Master Chief Collection and Halo 5. Wouldn't be surprised if this Gears collection contained access to the next Gears game in kind.

What is the system for approving accounts? Just curious why it sometimes seems like there are waves of juniors. Is there a certain poster population you try to maintain? Like when someone is permabanned, does that mean a junior is approved?

Why then is Toyota listed as a "committed partner" on Apple's CarPlay web page?

Not to mention that the smaller one would be $40-50 cheaper

Do you think I'll be able to use this to stream games from my Xbox One once Windows 10 launches?

Unless I'm mistaken, Bioshock is on a modified Unreal Engine 2.5, not even UE3.

I've been in a couple Subways in small towns along the interstate that took it, but didn't know how to use it. Apparently, they have to press the credit card option rather than the mobile pay option because that one selects Subway's own mobile payment app. After that, provided they have a newer PIN pad, you just hold…

The people who were most angry are the ones who refuse to buy an Xbox One for any reason because they are the ones who would be most impacted by the exclusivity. The "negative PR and pissed off fans" won't really affect their sales in the long run. Their target market is last-gen console owners who haven't decided on…

Good catch. Looks almost exactly like that concept. I don't think they'd abandon a design as iconic as the X-wing for the new trilogy anyway.

Other people have written about their issues with the post, and you can read some of those critiques here. If you want the Cliffnotes version of it: Temkin doesn't completely apologize, and it's hard not to read the parts about the legalities here as a threat to the woman. That's not cool.

Wouldn't MS be happy about these Destiny videos leaking? Activision and Sony have more reason to try and sweep them under the rug.

The checkpoint system works such that if you come across a checkpoint, you can choose to ignore it in exchange for bonus money. Adds some nice risk-reward to the mix.
