Twitch is the biggest reason I don’t play a lot of games. I can watch, and sometimes that’s all I need for a game. So game companies get less of my money.

You convinced me to pre-order!

Did they at least get the XB1 above 720p? Ground Zeros was 720p on XB1, and I don’t think there is any excuse for that anymore. Plenty of demanding games Xb1 games run at 900p, which I find is an acceptable balance. And of course, Bungie got Destiny running at 1080p on Xb1. I know that was 30 fps locked, so perhaps…

Can you play against bots only (offline mode)? My older brother plays no games at all, and wants to start now that he’s seen footage of Battlefront. I want to ease him into gaming without going online and getting slaughtered immediately, and thus discouraged from gaming in general.

I forgot to mention I’m a graphics whore. I want the best looking version of the game, don’t care if it’s less raunchy or has more bleeps.

The updated graphics looked wonderful on Xbox, and as you said, they ironed out some more rough patches. I’m a big fan of Rare’s top notch texture and design work. They really put some love into the Xbox port.

Wish Rare brought us Conker Live and Uncut instead of the 64 version.

I love Dinklage, but perhaps he’s not the best actor to get in a sound booth to read such a dull (and sometimes dumb sounding) script. He comes off well on camera with other people to act with. Props to Bungie to going the distance to fix it.

I’m really excited for this game, but didn’t we know this was coming back at E3 when MS showed this in their ID@Xbox montage? Or is the new news that the early access is hitting this winter?

Get a Wii U.

I found it didn’t make the biggest different in Destiny (where the game waits to sync you with people on your fire team). I haven’t played Witcher 3, but I played Far Cry 4 on my External 1TB HD and compared with my 256 GB SSD.

I noticed a speed boost by using my 7200rpm external USB 3 drive vs the internal hard drive,…

Oh man, as a freshman in college a professor gave me great advice: take LOTS of notes by hand in class in pencil. Then re-copy your notes every night in pen. It was a lot of work, but I never needed to study. Something about writing it - and then committing it in neater form in pen, just burned it into my brain. It…

I suspect nothing involving Batgirl and video games will ever be good enough. It will either let someone down from plot standpoint, or offend those who are in constant search of being offended. The only winning move is not to play.

Don’t care for his videos, but then I don’t have to watch them. Good on him for striking gold at the right time. He can retire now and give everyone the finger if he wants.

Me and a couple of casual buddies waded into Trials a while back. We got instantly destroyed by 3 players with thorns, then tea bagged, then got nasty messages sent to us via XBL. And this is why high ranking multi-only content locks suck ass.

Hmmm, might be worth ordering from microsoft instead if you’re an Xbox one owner. They won’t give you a discount, but they’ll give you $10 credit you can use on Xbox purchases (season passes and digital games). They both charge tax and they both ship free.

Awesome, thanks!

This is coming to XB1, so I’m intrigued, but hesitant as I am with basically all online games. Can I avoid playing with other people? The world looks amazing, but I don’t want to spend money on a game where some psycho troll can devote immense amounts of time to ruining my purchase and free time.

Wow, had no idea Bill Maher was anti-vax.
