    Oooooboy.. they got me. Just picked it up on Steam. I've had so much fun with this series to date, I don't think I'll regret this. I can't believe you completed it so fast! Hope you get a lot of replayability out of it. Or you have a huge library and no time for that sort of thing. I wrote...

    Aging has been a very humbling experience for me. After having a multi-generational big home, with a PS3 on a 75" Samsung 4K and best surround sound I've ever had, I had to concede I couldn't really take care of the place, or expect the missus to do so when its my time and had to sell. This is...

    Gave my kid the PS4 Pro when she moved out. So, got the PS5 digital slim on sale before things went insane. On a good, large (55" or more) 4K TV, you can see the graphics look a bit better. Nothing that would drive me to make the purchase. But, like going between the OG Xbox 1 and the 1X, you...

    Forza Horizon 6 is getting crazy good reviews. To the extent we can trust them anymore. Very tempting to pick this up on Steam. Unavailable on Playstation so far and, I'm thinking, as I can play online without PS+ or Xbox game pass, this may be the only way to go. Worrisome that a big plus...

    Series Final of The Boys (Amazon Prime) Pretty satisfying. Even so, there was enough here to have felt the experience a good one, worth watching and a better, more satisfying conclusion than, say LOST or Game of Thrones. Series: B. Series Finale D for the bad parts, A for the good stuff.

    I'm thinking about the poor driver of the vehicle that got jumped over. IRL, wouldn't the jumper's suspension be done?

    What have you purchased recently?

    My VITA and Steam Deck aren't particularly portable. They're both pretty large. Got this with some 20,000 retro games. RS36 Ultra. I think you can actually attach a separate wired controller to this but sadly, this has no video out.

    My boy didn't really care for it back in the day. He was into more grounded CoD sort of things. One day I'd left the game running and he grabbed the controller, played and when I got back he said, "I was about to shoot this guy and... he flew away. Took a second and realized I'm playing Halo"...

    Very long story short, I got Halo Master Chief Collection for the Xbox around 2013 using an email address and account that doesn't exist anymore. I bought the thing again for only $10 and it looks like they've polished it a 2nd time (1st around 2017). Says it is optimized for the Series X...

    Oh dear, another example of this forum desperately needing an LOL "like" emoji. But what you write is funny because it's true.

    OK, gotta check Spiritfarer ASAP. On your short list, Zelda: Link to the Past resonates. Buddy just got this retro device that plugs into your TV and it came with PS5 looking controllers, cheap but not bad at all for a ridiculous low price. Zelda: LTTP is available and I tried it and 36 years...

    Lotta wheel spinning. About a 1/3 of the episode asking people about asking people. And But finally, story has moved forward and we actually got some action in the last 15 min. or so. They've got me. They know I have to watch just to see this play out. Though, Soldier Boy is still worth...

    Holy Moly! On Amazon Prime, there is a Citadel S2 that just dropped! 3 years since S1 that got consistent episode scores of about 6.5/10 in IMDB and is one of the most expensive TV shows ever produced! Boy, makes me want to pay that extra money for commercial free! To help Amazon pay for...

    Yep, Tali who is who I am using, thanks! Tells me now and 19 years ago, I somehow picked the wrong thing to take as my 1st major mission. They gave me the choice to go after Saran who might be in two clusters, or after a doctor that knows something. I went after the doctor. Lot to figure out...
