It's funny: I had the same issue, got up, had a bowl of cereal, and was able to get back in (without being mad enough to stipulate on Al Gore's Internet that garden-variety game launch stuff should be illegal). Hope everything gets smoother for both of us and everyone!

I promise I'm not trying to be a jerk, but ... something like 0.1 percent of homo sapiens that was alive at the dawn of 2020 has died of COVID, and something like 10 percent has had it. It is very much not hard for me to imagine that still affecting productivity by simply removing or disabling...

In my defense, I was younger and dumber, and this was a time (~15 years ago) when $50 for a 50" TV seemed like a steal before considering that it was also going to weigh 300 pounds.

Anything should work, so long as your buyer doesn't end up having to rent a U-Haul to get the 50" flat screen (but not flat-panel) from the site where it sat prior to its government auction and then not ultimately have the right space in a van to get it to college from home, forcing said buyer...

Do you ever get used to the fonts on that Steam version of FF6?

It is not an Xbox game (yet), but I have been having a ton of fun with PlateUp!, which I will never again type with its stylized exclamation point. Best with a controller.

I ... can totally understand thinking that, too. Probably should've just let McAvoy and Ridley speak in their accents. But I thought Dafoe's performance was really good.

I liked Twelve Minutes as a five-hour investment even though the twist is dumb and I had to look up some of the solutions even after I intuited or POE'd them to make sure I was doing the inputs right, and I think the acting is genuinely good -- but I probably had more fun watching other people...

I'm fortunate in that it was mostly a garage fire (ruinous smoke everywhere, but fire contained) and most of the stuff that's gone/damaged is not mine but my mom's. But a) that's a lifetime of memories for her and b) the recovery process is long and is starting in the brutal Florida summer...

I don't mean to one-up this, but it turns out a house fire (everyone is safe, I'm just in a hotel and don't want to work around the HDMI control box) will absolutely make you feel the same way. At least I have my phone slot machine app!

The actual Xbox statement does not sound like that, really?

I'm sorry, but "(Microsoft) has no excuse!" sounds so silly to me when talking about GWG -- and would be if leveled against whatever the lowest-level monthly PS Plus offering is called now. (It's Essential. I had to look it up.) The first-party games are almost all going to be part of the Game...

FIFA has notoriously taken forever to get added to the EA Access/Play Vault (which is how it would probably get to Game Pass), but it looks like last year's was there in mid-June according to some cursory Twitter searching. If you're asking about buying it before it gets vaulted, I'd probably...

I'm still on a last-gen Xbox (not even an One X, actually), and I play more sports games than anything, but I do tend to play more than one or two of them at a time. NBA 2K22 is listed at 99 GB on my HD; Madden 22 is 46, MLB The Show 22 is 44, and NHL is 39. That's a quarter of my hard drive...

Still shocks me that that was his first significant role. Obviously had chops (and, y'know, Liev is his half-brother), but for that to be your breakthrough with nothing of note before it is kinda nuts. (True for a lot of actors on The Wire, in fairness.) For my money, though, his best role is...

I think Microsoft has successfully put Game Pass into that Netflix or early Amazon Prime realm of services that are so valuable that the monthly price would be worth it even at twice the price or more because there really isn't much of a choice if you have an Xbox: Unless you purely play games...

Personally, I'd be inclined to think the acquisition/consolidation wave is more about companies having enormous cash reserves after enormous surges in gaming revenues during a pandemic and attribute most development issues to that same pandemic dovetailing with a time of both rising labor power...

Having watched and read a few reviews today, there's definitely at least some "I already liked From Software games but this one is for me because (it's open world/it's slightly easier/it's not actually easier but it being open world makes up for the brutal difficulty because you can go fight...
