I, for one, will continue to honor TimDog and our other fallen comrades. The console war is fierce, fellow gamers, and they paid the ultimate price. Let us all continue to unlock cheevos in their name.

It's been known for a while that they are dropping physical. The next console won't have a disc drive.

It also won't have a CPU or ram if the rumours are true

Can't have the wrong ram if you don't have a console!

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.

So we started at "Microsoft rumoured to be releasing current first party exclusives to other platforms" and are now at "Xbox is cancelled, Microsoft now just game publisher, games in development are all cancelled now" from the looks of it.

Honestly, at this point if they dropped out and Sony triples the price of PlayStation it'd be the funniest option to me.

Not even kidding I’d love an HDMI passthrough feature on a console right now. Not even for TV, let me use Game DVR and turn the Series S into a capture box.

You see, but you do not observe.

Finished Wasteland 3 and it's loving awesome, if you like CRPGs it's definitely one to play.

It's less serious than Wasteland 2, maybe goes a bit hard on the jokes and pop culture references, also the Unity engine sucks, and the characters were a bit mild, but overall I ended up loving it.

And the music, holy poo poo, the covers and the custom songs, goddamn :worship:

inXile are killers in the RPG field, love them

edit: Oh the DLC is absolutely worth it, even if the new game mechanics are a bit annoying at first, they add variety to the battles

edit 2: Maybe not everyone needs to be voice acted next time. Maybe just let the professionals voice the main characters. Just sayin'. I know Kevin from QA is doing his best at sounding like a gruff post apocalyptic warrior, but you can tell which voices are from pros

On the topic of Windows...

I wonder what their market share would've been like if from the outset they gave you the option to boot the Series X into Windows with full keyboard & mouse support.

Microsoft are having a business update next week. Either they are putting a few first-party games on PS5/Switch, or they are completely exiting hardware, or Gamepass is going ad-supported, or they’re banning physical media, or they’re forcing you to subscribe to Office 365 for Gamepass, or releasing a Series E handheld to fit between the S and the X, or anything in between

The only thing we know for sure is that Timdog, Klobrille, NutBuster87, FranticUnicorn and ThatStreamerGuyxx are on suicide watch

I wonder what the last physical Xbox game disc will be. While I suspect some games have contractual arrangements where there must be a physical SKU of some sort in stores, I imagine we'll start seeing "code in box" style Xbox releases, like we already do on Switch.
