Just got a (new) Switch at GameStop. $100 with the trade-in of my old one got me the updated model with twice the battery life, a better screen, and a fresh warranty. Now I just need to not scratch the screen until my protectors come in.

I might have to take up on this because the fan is on the way out on my switch, but hell if i'm going to let them know that. I'll just bring it in and trade it for the new one lol. $100 plus the old switch right? Does the new one come with the required cables and dock and poo poo or no?

Yeah all that stuff comes in the box just like the old one. Look up how the box on the new model looks so you don't get screwed - it has a red background. Make sure you remember to deregister your old Switch from the eShop and bring in all the plastic junk you tossed into a drawer (the joy con grip and wrist straps).

I’m really glad Xbox made sort of a comeback. It was funny to laugh at for a minute but one console dominating the market is no good

I've had the same xbone since a few months after launch. It's been a good old game horse. And I pretty much watch all of my movies/tv through it, because sling and hulu are on it.

It's not great and it's definitely showing signs of age, but it's not an awful system, like countless piles of poo poo before (atari jaguar, sega 32x, etc). Free games help too.

Even without co-op its a blast it just gets funnier in a group. Doctor (chloroforms people for tests) and Cannibal(eats people for health) synergize pretty well, for gross reasons. Things like that.

Just gonna recommend Streets of Rogue if you have any friends. Your goal is to become the next mayor. Its somewhere between streets of rage and space station 13 in terms of gameplay and insanity. There are many character classes to try each with different objectives, zombies wanna make more zombies, cops want to arrest the guilty, comedians tell a joke, werewolf wants to rage, scientists test drugs on people, all while working as a resistance plant to be the next mayor by doing missions on each level. Missions usually mean murder. You're murdering your way to mayor.

Its twenty bucks and i've already gotten more enjoyment out of it with the assholes I play battlefield with than I would have from fast food or a movie. Maybe not the best metric since i go to early shows if i can help it, less people. Fun game. Like, SNES brawler with friends on the weekend and you've got the TV to yourself and four controllers and hey wanna go ride bikes fun...

it has freeze rays, shrink rays, tasers, drugs, alcohol, getting health back with drugs and alcohol, accidentally injecting sulfuric acid because it looks like a drug, purposefully giving people who hate you sulfuric acid so they can die and its one less person voting against you at the end... and more.

Streets of Rogue is great. Feels like an old arcade game, but you can create your own classes if the default ones aren’t to your liking.

Clint did a review of it, and while he had something to say about the weapons selection being a bit small, he was absolutely giddy that the game is so good and satisfying for someone looking for old school 90s shooter nostalgia.

Surviving Mars is real good, I've got a ton of playtime in that. Put in like 80 hours in vanilla and then another 80 when Green Planet came out. Not gonna play it again until probably 2 more DLCs come out at least.

The guns are a bit bland compared to the other Build Engine Games but it still has some crazy stuff like an 18-shot 3-barreled magnum revolver, homing hand grenades, and your shotgun just being 40mm buckshot rounds that you load into a rotary grenade launcher.

I haven't played Siege, but everybody in BF4 is super chill still. Like for a 5 year old game you would think they would all be bitter assholes, but nope, everybody is cool unless you are a real obvious troll.

What's Siege comparable too? Like R6: Vegas 2 was my poo poo once upon a time, is it close to that gameplay wise?

Starsector fuckin rules. I've been playing it off and on for about 7 years now through various updates. It's still in alpha and the dev takes his time to think out features and additions, their function and impact on gameplay before committing to them. Some aspects have gone through redesign several times because they weren't fun.

It's a great game that scratches that top-down space exploration and fleet building itch. Combat is tight, ship and weapon variety is legit. You can play factions off against each other, start your own colonies and go commit atrocities against your competitors to curb their market share, explore the reaches of the sector for ancient blueprints and build your own fleet of doom. It's an awesome game, and the mod scene just makes it better. There's an active thread in Games for it, and some of the best mod authors are goons. Can't recommend it highly enough if its your kind of game.

I’m feeling the itch for the Thief series again, from ~1999/early 2000’s. Religious fanatics, competing thieves, deceitful gods, and tombs full of zombies all had treasures that served better to keep a roof over your head and food in your belly than staying wherever they were. Ghosting it completely was a true challenge too, although between the difficulty and any self-imposed restrictions the game was as easy or as hard as you wanted it to be. Want to kill everyone and leave a trail of blood and bodies? Go right ahead! Want to knock them all out and throw them in a pile so they’re confused in the morning? Go for it! Want to be a true master, without ever knocking anyone out or anyone even suspecting something was amiss? Gods be with you, that is going to be hard.
