The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

2)Did anyone even bother to make carrying cases for the 360 slim and E?

Ask me about my wealthy lifestyle and passive income! I love bragging about my wealth to my lessers! My opinions are more valid because I have more money than you! Stealing the fruits of the labor of the working class is okay, so long as you don't do it using crypto. More money = better than!

Immortals of aveum runs like poo poo on Series X. No performance option.

I'm in Act 3 and the performance has been pretty good, including the two boss fights so far.

e:i'm really enjoying quick resume, especially for older games like Fallout New Vegas and KOTOR. It's really cool to be able to quit playing and then pick right up like you just paused the game, even days later.

Maybe i'm just more sensitive to frame rate drops, but the boss fight with the huge dragon was unplayable. I just want the game to offer a lower resolution. The Switch, the most popular console of all time, plays most games at 540p and no one cares. Games don't need to be 4K, especially when they can barely handle it.

I don't remember them from back in the days for sure. Most of the time is cheaper to buy a nice backpack or laptop case/sleeve.

I’ve had the console for a year and just found out you can pin games so they never leave the quick resume queue.

Y'know, I'll have to replay that boss fight because I either didn't notice any significant frame drops or I just wrote them off mentally as part of the boss fight experience, if that makes any sense.

Works like emulators making a save state but with modern games. It owns and works great (cept if the game is always online of course).

There are a few types on eBay.
I’m loving my Logitech g cloud though. Remote play and cloud streaming are rad on it. If I were somewhere with no connectivity it’s got the ability to run GameCube, ps1, etc.

Hey y'all I found a cool thing to share. On the dashboard go to Manage -> Free up space -> Leftover add-ons. I had like literally 100gb of DLC and poo poo for games I haven't played in a while and aren't even installed anymore. Maybe you do too, go look! Free space baby!

Ask me about Game Pass: the Best Deal in Gaming!
Gamepass games have more rare achievements than one's not on the service since a lot of people download gp games and play for 10 mins to see if they like it and move on. Gamepass games that also suck have even more rares.
