Generally the consensus goes

I’m intrigued by this Halo Wars 2 beta that started today - queued it to download before I left for work, so I’ll give that a try.

The letter writer didn’t specify the native language of the third wheel guy... Is he a speaker of the woman’s language? That could be a pretty important factor here.

Their main weakness is probably in naval technology, given Poland’s historical propensity to install screen doors on submarines.

What’s the microtrans currency called in it? Anacondas or Truffle Butter Sticks?

That thing required so much more assembly than the box or advertising had implied - 25 years later I’m still slightly bitter about the two hours it took for my 7 year old self to put it together.

According to that logic, charging $50 for a Star Wars Battlefront season pass is somehow mutually exclusive with a gesture of tribute like this.

My mild dyslexia caused me to read it as HAM NO for a split second too.

I’m 99.999% sure it will, given MS’s commitment to BC... I’d even bet that it would support every Xbox 360 title from the get-go too.

I played ~10 hours over the last week and definitely had fun, but now my gear score is at 229 and at a loss as to what I’m supposed to do next.

Right on. I’d been hoping that the creators would realize Gears is a “style” of game more than it is a story setting and take it to a completely new universe - much what like the “other” GOW series is doing by scrapping the Greek mythology for a Norse one.

Their product designers are true innovators of finding new ways to fuck up their products.

Maybe I’m missing something, but it really looks like the TV’s just simply darker on the Virtual Console side.

I probably joined Xbox Live about a month after it first launched.

Uhoh... This victory was “first on Xbox One”... Sony/Activision marketing team probably aren’t happy about it.

Reminds me of these club douchebags I used to know who pooled their parents’ money together and started their own club, apparently operating under the belief that being a club douchebag makes one qualified to run an actual club.

Seeing the same buildings over and over again on every planet, monotonous resource gathering, weird animals, I kept thinking “I’ve played this before”

Oh God, I can already feel my fist balling up when I picture seeing Bob Costas’ face on the screen.
