Barudak posted:Its a growth target through June. Its bad they missed it, obviously, but 37% growth is on ??? so we have no idea what it means. They also would have made this goal assuming Halo would launch during the year so I've got a feeling internally there is less sky falling panic than online posting. yeah, I'm guessing it's much closer to whatever internal target they had in a world without Halo Infinite coming out. And (without reading the article) I think they can look at other metrics (like stickiness of customers) and see positive signs there separately. One number won't tell the whole story.

It’d better be because Beetle Adventure Racing is headed to Nintendo Online Expensive Edition. there's a couple of older Baja Bugs and a 2017-era rallycross Beetle, those should count.

Nuts and Gum posted:I mean they included the Nissan 240SX SE so thats clearly not universally true. I just want to relive the 90s okay! The 240SX is actually an extremely capable chassis for just about any motorsport discipline. extremely versatile and responds well to simple bolt on power and suspension modifications, abundant after market and support scene. the 300ZX is the peak of Japanese excess in car tech (similar to the Mitsusbishi 3000GT or Lexus Soarer) and while technologically more advanced than the 240, its complexity and over-reliance on technology make it an extremely poor choice for motorsport of any kind. I remember my dad had one when I was a kid and he had an alarm installed in it but the screamer/siren had to be installed in the rear bumper as there was not enough room in the engine bay for it. great GT car (after all they designed the trunk in a way that you can stow 2 full golf bags) but not great for actual track use. 300ZX are making a resurgence in popularity now because all the other cool and good nissans are worth ridiculous money because of speculation on classic japanese cars.

I'm trying out Echo Generation, which I've never heard about but is out on Game Pass today. It's a turn-based RPG kind of game. It seems promising, looks nice at least.

Skrill.exe posted:Flashbacks to CrossCode. Unending tutorial filled with unending dialogue. I don't give a poo poo! Let me play the game. I like that it quite literally has a plot mandatory quiz on the lore, that even within the context of the game is tedious to its players and completely made up with no bearing on the actual story. And by like I mean if there hadn't been 1,000 textboxes of gently caress all nothing before that it would have been funny but instead it was where I realized the game was lying about what it wanted to be.

It's a retro side scrolling shooter that got a remake. In the original game though, one of the bosses is quite literally a gigantic robot

Looks like Apex Legends is getting another new map, with this one seemingly being set on a tropical island with a lot of wildlife. The new character looks fun as well. Gameplay reveal coming soon but for now we've had another animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R559DWBYbU Path of Exile is getting another update which looks great as well but it still seems like an intimidatingly complex game to get into  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNx68r2TzRY Edit: Also, Doom Eternal is getting a horde mode shortly  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoY6CgJjO34 SUNKOS fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Oct 21, 2021 |

I've been totally spoiled by Quick Resume and I can't describe how weirdly outraged I get when a game doesn't support it. And that goes double for first-party games, THE OUTER WORLDS.

I’m finding conflicting information on Arkham Origins for Series X. If I find the disk version will I be able to play it? Looks like it was removed from the digital store. Also, would it be enhanced any compared to the PSNow version? I usually have pretty good luck with streaming from it but would rather play the game locally.

It'll work, probably won't look much better than on 360/PS3 generation consoles, except that the framerate will be an unflinching 30 fps, plus the usual improved texture filtering on BC stuff. The PC version would be highly preferable if possible, as with all the Arkham games except Knight.

Definitely works, I have it on disk and it will install fine. It looks like the 360 version. Loads faster on Series X and you wouldn't be using a lovely PS3 stream like PSNow.

The controller home button getting a custom brightness setting is the best. I chose to go with the dimmest setting while still leaving the light on. Much more comfortable than the full brightness it used to be. The console power button I straight up made full dark.
