Yeah same. I'm looking forward to it.

Anyone know if there is some way to get that dumb over priced season pass for FO4 for cheap? Does it go on sale much? I want to pick it up but I don't want to pay 50 bones for it.

It's been going on sale for around $30 roughly once a month recently:

I still think EA Access at the $30/year price point is a hell of a good deal, they just added Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 to the vault and I've been enjoying the heck out of Titanfall 2's campaign so far.

Those games plus all the GWG games I've accumulated over the years are enough of a reason for me to keep playing my xbone and get an xboxox when that's out.

I'm making my way through every Halo game from 3 onward since I never got around to playing any of them, and I just started Reach today. I was wondering, is the Master Chief Collection worth getting, if only for being able to play 1 and 2? Also, did they ever fix the multiplayer or whatever was hosed up from the beginning?

I said come in! posted:

This isn't an opinion though? Like, this is exactly how the Horizon 4 multiplayer is. What I said is completely factual unless someone wants to explain where the other multiplayer modes are. Team adventure is literally all there is, and it's S class only.

When you drive up to a race on the map and start it you get asked whether you want to play solo, pvp, or co-op and if you choose one of the multiplayer ones it will start a lobby for that race. PvP is multiplayer with no drivatars and co-op is a team race of humans vs drivatars

Bloodplay it again posted:

Anyone know of a filterable list of Xbox One X enhanced games? I found this list on the Xbox site but I'd like to be able to narrow it down by console or remove unreleased titles. I popped Morrowind GOTY in yesterday to discover that not only does the game load much faster, but there's also additional filtering that removes all of the aliasing. It looks like there's some frame doubling technique in play to give it a 60 FPS feel as well. It runs infinitely better than it did on the OG Xbox.

It just has 360 and XB1 games but https://www.trueachievements.com/xbox-one-x-enhanced/games will let you filter on whether a 1X patch has been released or just announced and shows whether the enhancements include 4K/HDR

Anything worth picking up before this sale ends? I just beat Assassin's Creed Odyssey last week and need something to play while I wait for the DLC to slowly trickle out. I asked about Tomb Raider but that didn't sounds like a buy to me.

If you didn’t already play them on the 360, $5 for both remastered Batman Arkham games is a good deal

Wish Orange Box had some X enhancements. No way in hell it will get them but it would be cool if HL2 ran at 60fps.

I could probably just build a mid-grade computer to run the 15 year old video game.

Orange box is X enhanced, but like the other enhanced 360 games it’s just to bump the resolution up to 4K
