Microsoft cut the line about having the highest quality pixels from the official youtube video about the scorpion.

Maybe "No Scorpio exclusives" is just a tacit admission that the Xbox family in general has no exclusives anymore

It's going to be a long time before 4k is the standard. Broadcasters still mostly show over compressed 720p for their HD channels and ISPs are starting to institute caps because so many people are ditching traditional TV in favor of streaming.

I think the data caps aren't actually about bandwidth though and are really just to discourage cord cutting because ISPs are usually also cable companies

I didn't really like season 1 of True Detective tbh

The lead actors were really good but I didn't care about them solving the mystery, I could barely even follow it.

I wouldn't because it doesn't matter and people are enjoying themselves making fun of a multi-billion dollar corporation that couldn't care less what they think anyway.

Also this happens to be a forum with a certain biting tone of humor and discussion conflict should be looked at as a fertile opportunity for amusement rather than a road block in the way of serious discussion.

Just was at GameStop and heard a kid trying to talk their mom or elder sibling/guardian into letting them buy an elite controller lol

It was sort of sad and funny at the same time

i complained a lot about the indie games on PS+ but then I started paying attention to humble bundle and realized sony is just kinda bad at picking out indie games most of the time.
