I said come in! posted:Astro has been the most comfortable headset to me. I have the same problem you do with comfort. They are expensive, but worth it. Turtle Beach makes headset with a glasses channel for those of us with eyewear. Sound Quality is pretty good but their range is lacking.

Arcade Paradise is, in fact, a super chill and fun little busywork/management sim. Really digging it so far.

Like the Pacman clone except with the look of the first GTA. I also like that you have to play the games to make them more popular so that they earn more money. Edit: and the jukebox has loads of Synthwave.

Not on Game Pass, but another metroidvania I've been enjoying is Grime. Really unique world.

Shadow Complex kicked rear end, there's been an absolute glut of Metroidvanias since then but pickings were pretty slim back when it came out. I miss Summer of Arcade.

I think he even has a tie-in book series which makes the anti-woke poo poo much more explicit. I don't know if it was goon telephone or what but I remember hearing something in the old 360 thread around the time of release that the devs didn't like the association with Card and did as much as they could to downplay it. It sounds like wishful thinking bullshit to me, but

Is there also an EQ for the 3.5mm headphone port on an Xbox controller? Cause I remember the one time I tried using that thing with some wired headphones I thought it sounded like poo poo and have never touched it again

Kinda surprised the headset doesn't pair with the Xbox dongle on PC. I've got a Bluetooth one the next port over, so NBD, just strikes me as odd. The headphone port on an Xbox controller works on PC when you're using that dongle.

Cause I remember the one time I tried using that thing with some wired headphones I thought it sounded like poo poo and have never touched it again Make sure you're either using no dsp at all or at the least turn off the windows sonic for headphones dsp because it is raw garbage and will ruin the sound of any headphones. Took me a while to figure out why my cans sounded so much worse on the xbox. The dolby atmos dsp is actually really good though, but it costs a few bones. Either way I bet you'll see an improvement if you turn off the Microsoft one. Can't remember where exactly it is in the sound settings though. There's not much there it should be easy to find.

Im guessing Bethesda are waiting to surprise drop the next gen version alongside the Fallout TV series In the mean time im playing rn in 60fps and 4K thanks to the ‘60 fps series X ultra settings’ mod. It rules, it doesn't even disable achievements.

People will call me brokebrain but I actually play Forza Horizon 5 in quality mode. I played it at 60fps since launch but last month I switched it to 30fps just to see how it looks, and I actually prefer it this way now. The 30fps feels really smooth, the motion blur makes it feel great and it just looks good. But I can't play Halo in 30fps, that doesn't work for me anymore.

Forza Horizon 5 is one of the few games that I kinda prefer to play in 30fps over 60 just because it's so well coded that it doesn't feel bad instantly to me when switching modes.
