One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Hype to play Horizon Forbidden West on my gilded age Tiffany Company Vibrating Unit, for a Womene's Maladies.

I hadn't heard of this one before, seems interesting and has a 120 fps mode. It comes out next week.

That Vermintide Darktide or whatever looks sick. It really looks great for a WH40k game which are usually pretty b-class games not AAA stuff.

do any of y'all use an intercooler/extra fan on a series x? is it worth it?

My series X barely feels warm to the touch. I keep it vertical and there's room on all sides.

You should not hide your series X in some cabinet, it should be free.

Those arent worth it as a general rule.
consoles are made to not cook themselves and run fine simply with unobstructed vents

The series x draws in air from the bottom and flows out the top like a chimney, it’s pretty cool.

My series x is horizontal in my tv hutch. It stays cool and quiet as long as I remember to open the door to the cabinet. If I forget, it reminds me by turning the fans up and sounding like a playstation during a moderately complex graphics sequence.

The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

It's this the Serious Sam 4 game, or another new one? I gave up during SS3 because I couldn't beat the final boss. I heard that SS4 is more fun though.

Yah that was another wh40k game that also rose way above the usual dire fare from that license. The dawn of war games from relic were quite good too. My friends like Space Hulk but I didn’t care for it.

I said come in!

Dark Tide will hopefully be good. I have faith in it since its made by the Vermintide 2 devs.

this is what I do (i never shut the cabinet on the system when it's in use), but I'm actually hearing my fans for the first time and I got spooked

the ventilation requirements in the Series X manual are actually shockingly small. it is a very thermally efficient machine. MS says 4-6 inches on all sides which is nothing

Never use any of those products on any console. The systems are very carefully designed and heavily tested in both hardware and software to ensure that operating temperatures remain in spec in any reasonable environment. Best case they will do absolutely nothing but in the vast majority of cases they restrict airflow and can put extra burden on the fans working against already turbulent air. For the Series X, a few inches of space around the back and top is all that is needed (as well as enough airflow to ensure that space can cool as well).

Given how unfinished the game still is, I'm guessing holiday '23 before any new campaign content? (I'm that weird guy who finished the H:I campaign and has yet to play multi)
