Snagged the 2.99 2k19 even though I haven't played a 2k basketball game since Dreamcast.

Also found while doing that that Stellaris is part of the Free Play weekend, so I can test drive the console version and see if it's worth my time.

I'm gonna chalk that discovery up to the $2.99 as well, so I feel like I got a super deal.

 
I really, really want to fire up Void Bastards. I bought that (free after rebate, which I did receive) 360 for work travel, but I may just end up getting that purple X1S and having a backup for travel. It'd be less clunky too. As it stands, no VB for me until at least Sunday.

Just going on past experience I doubt anyone is getting banned here. If that's the case it'll fall to you to decide if you want to keep complaining until the end of time or not, at which point I assume you'll be mass Ignored to the point of falling on deaf ears. To call this entire thread a garbage heap is unfair, it's only trash when idiots are gumming it up with shit-tier posts antagonizing the rest of the posters. As is, this discussion is just as much of a derailment from on-topic as any movie or cheeseburger discussion, since it's been hours and dozens of posts. It's been about 8.5 hours since your original warning post so I imagine if anyone was getting bans or warnings we would have started to hear about it by now.

Eh, it's getting announced tomorrow in a detailed stream. If someone is upset over a setting spoiler 24 hours in advance I apologize.
Yeah. There are garbage threads on this site, but this ain't one of them. Going off topic during a slow week and shit-posting are very different things, and the ones who take it too far either get banned or get told to take it somewhere else. IMHO the thread is pretty good at self-regulating, and I've never seen OT discussions interfere with deals, when E3 rolls around all we discuss are games. Same with date night. But yet again here is another page of posts discussing this subject instead of all the amazing deals.

I haven't watched Futurama in awhile, but help me remember: Doesn't Captain Brannigan consider himself the hero in all their adventures, but instead ends up getting in the way, is somewhat bumbling, and often makes situations worse?

Can't tell if great troll, or he truly sees himself as the lone hero struggling against all odds to clean up this dusty town.

Godspeed sir, good luck on your noble endeavor. I, for one, enjoy the banter, though.

No one's worried that we haven't had any BC announcements in awhile because E3 is just around the corner and they're saving them all up for that, right? RIGHT?!
Yeah I wouldn't count on any BC announcements at all during E3 well as far as specifically related to 360 games on the Xbox One. Usually when it's a big event that's their week not to have any BC announcements so they just got ahead of it a few weeks this time around. I'd say they are starting to run out of material on what's left, but since they managed to bring back Ninja Gaiden II from the the digital dead to release on BC still probably a lot of options out there.

 
MS is doing what seems like every 3 months here's a bunch of anime first seasons for free today. There was actually over half that I didn't have yet so they must have updated the titles from the past. Added to the digital library to never be watched. It's on slickdeals front page if you want a concise list of what's what. 

 
Why don’t we let the whiners create their own thread, find the Xbox deals and post them themselves and we carry on the righteous community that we have built here as friends.

I actually cherish what we have here. If I wanted just deals, I’d go to True Achievements or something.
Again with the name calling. You need to grow up and learn to accept that everyone has different views on stuff. Just because you do not have the same one is no reason to call someone an asshole or a whiner or whatever your insult of the day is. Maybe just do what the others do and make a grand production about how you are blocking the person you don't agree with (along with instructions on how others can do the same) and get on with your day. Name calling is not part of any righteous community I have heard of.

And people need to do the same. I only used “asshole” once and didn’t direct it at any one person. That was because someone else was being disrespectful to me having an opinion. Names are not the only form of disrespect on the Internet. Very flippant comments to another person are just as offensive to me and can hurt just as much. But no one cares about those kinds of insults.

People should be respectful of opinions. Period. And what I said was calling out people who aren’t. So I was actually defending the right to have an opinion without being attacked.

Heck I made a stupid comment believing a tweet from Major Nelson was real. I was tired and wasn’t thinking straight. Someone said “JFC” (ironically a person who called me out for using a-hole). How is THAT not offensive?

But in this case I was wrong and will refrain from calling others whiners and just say “the people who are complaining”.

You suckers with your NBA2K19 for $2.99. I spent about $330 to get that game at the first part of this year. However, it did come with a bonus copy of an Xbox One X. I'm still happy with my purchase.

 
I thought people on the PSN thread successfully did it. Of course, I tried to look for it one day and couldn't find it and really didn't care enough to search. :)

Honestly, this website really needs to be laid out better or have better menus.
They went over to Discord a year (or maybe 2 now) ago. Thread was very active for while but they decided to change the format. Difference between this thread and the PSN thread was the OP (Frisky) didn't care for the off topic posts.

It was the most active thread in the Off topic section for a year I think.

A split would be nice. Off topic discussion gets it's own thread, this one stays a deal one, and then each of these threads also creates their own Discord server for the "elite" members, and then the OGs of the board abstain from Discord because it's too new and weird and they go to the CAG Lounge and make more topics to keep out new posters. It's a win-win-win-win-win-win.

I'm totally opposed to a split. This thread is how I get all my news, philosophical thought, macro and micro economic concepts, education on current events, and fast food suggestions. If that stops, i'll just become an ignorant person. I can only commit to one thread.

I Feel we should keep with the XBox tradition of doing things and have an XBox Deals Silver thread where it's only for deals and an XBox Deals Gold thread for deal discussion and off topic. All on the gaming deals page. And requiring $60 a year to join or Bing points...to me.

Why don’t we take a poll on a split? Have a feeling there’s only a small handful of people that actually would want it.
 
As is, this discussion is just as much of a derailment from on-topic as any movie or cheeseburger discussion, since it's been hours and dozens of posts. It's been about 8.5 hours since your original warning post so I imagine if anyone was getting bans or warnings we would have started to hear about it by now.
I don't think defining what the expectations are is off topic at all. I'm interested in how you guys justify wanting to set up picnic tables in the middle of the clearly labeled soccer field and then throwing food at anyone who mentions "hey isn't this the soccer field, can we play soccer sometime?"

Also, I made that post while on a break at work and since catching up I only noticed two posts that were actually off topic and trying to steer the conversation more off topic.

I'm also not the one "policing" this thread. That's up to the mods. Bans are an exaggeration, I mostly expect deleted posts, a warning DM, or a temp suspension for ruining the fun.

I just remembered all the awful platforming sections in Turok. Oh well, I'll boot it up tonight if I'm not too tired and figure out how to add cheat codes for all the weapons.
 
E3 xbox related news THQ just announced something that is no surprise what numbered Game it is but the actual game type is so different that it's interesting. Weird grey area of not wanting to be spoil but I guess it's an "official announcement" since it's on IGN

Deals are at 4pm. 

 
So Void Bastards is a weird game for me. Having a fun time playing it, but I'm not really bothering to progress yet. I refuse to accept that I can't fully clear every ship and collect every item so I die like all the time. But since you get to come back slightly different it doesn't even feel like a set back. Nice little time waster just screwing around and seeing what randomness the dice roll will come up with next. Someday I may actually play it the right way, probably when we find out it is leaving gamepass.

Early Stadia messaging leaking looks remarkably bad. Probably a bad sign when they had the reveal in March and the CEO of Google gets up there and says "I don't even like Video Games", make some popcorn this could be good.

I didn't care about off-topic posts in the PSN thread, but when people are arguing with each other for a full page or more, the mods got involved to clean it up. I even posted in the other thread for a bit until they made it clear to me that I was not welcome there, so I moved on. Some of them would even come back to the PSN thread to troll me, which could've gotten one of them banned, but I asked the mods to just delete the post and not ban them. Now I just mostly don't post much here outside of deals and some other things because people get angry about the dumbest things and it's not worth the time or energy.

 
Over the weekend I took a break from my career in Destiny 2 to play Operencia:  Stolen Sun because I'm a fan of that genre.  The game has lots of polish and the banter between the members of my party are entertaining.  There are three different variations of difficulty (no mini-map, permadeath with fewer save options, and something else...).  That made the game pretty challenging, but in the third area I was just overwhelmed with the stronger enemies and no options to rest and heal and I fell in battle (and had my ~5.5 hour save file deleted).  I'd like to see how someone can make it through that area alive.

I guess if I had a gripe with the game, it would be that there don't seem to be random enemy encounters.  For the price though (free with GP), it's a great game.

I agree with this. We should all just shut up. Unless we are talking about Game Pass Ultimate, because I think we can all agree how awesome that is and it is completely noncontroversial, right?

If you got the full 3 years for 18 months it's still probably the best non clearance deal this entire site has ever had, and even that got ragged on

Anyone find the “streak count” on MS Rewards is broken? I know for sure I did things the last two days and it was reset to zero today.

Seeing as how this thread is the only reason I come to this site I would just stop coming here if that happened.

I know it has the 4th character but it's not 4. It's a spin-off from a different development team (or so I read.)
 
Well, I was right about Destiny needing a big shake up to monetization. Engadget blew it hard and posted this article early.

https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/bxfrzv/more_expansion_detail_plans_leaked/

Big changes are coming to Destiny 2. With today's announcement of Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, developer Bungie has a new way to deliver content to its players. When the major expansion lands on on September 17th, the core game will go free-to-play, shifting to "expansion-level, standalone content" for Destinyveterans.
 
Details of the plot are scarce, but thanks to early leaks we know that Shadowkeep will require Guardians to return to the moon to "journey deep into a mysterious enemy citadel" and "become a slayer of nightmares." Bungie also says that it will feature the return of an old ally.
 
With the move to free-to-play, the core game will be called Destiny 2: New Lightand will feature all year one content, including "foundational modes, activities and rewards."
 
This represents a change for the Destiny franchise as it seeks to lure gamers away from popular free titles like Fortnite. Previously, players paid upfront for the game and bought big expansions to gain access to new raids, missions and in-game items, either separately or as an annual pass subscription. Now, the core game will stay free, while additional content will be made available in the form of paid "à la carte" offerings like Shadowkeep.
 
With a rocky start and declining engagement in the face of its more popular competitors, Destiny 2 has been struggling to win back players. It was made available through PS Plus and the base game was even given away for free on PC last year, although only for a short time. One issue the new update aims to address is the requirement for players to have bought older expansions in order to access newer content. That's no longer the case.
 
The update will also bring more comprehensive cross-platform support to the game. A new cross-save feature allows players to access the same characters from their primary account on different platforms, though for now this is only for Xbox and PC, not PS4. In addition, Bungie says there will be no more platform-exclusive weapons, armor, maps or activities.
 
If the idea of cloud gaming interests you, particularly Google's new Stadia service, Bungie has some good news. The game will also debut on Google's cloud gaming platform, which is due to launch in November. If you don't have access to a high-end PC, you'll be able to play Destiny 2 through Google Chrome.
 
Following its split with Activision, Bungie has had to find a new store for its shooter. PC gamers will be pleased to note that Destiny 2 will soon be available on Steam, and can migrate their progress and purchases over for free.
 
Anyone find the “streak count” on MS Rewards is broken? I know for sure I did things the last two days and it was reset to zero today.
Yes, I have had this happen SEVERAL times, even when it shows 3 green check marks for all 3 activities. Also, I say leave the thread as it is. I usually read through it a few times a day & it's one of my last favorite places on the internet.

 
Isn’t Stadia supposed to be for Chromecast devices? Or maybe you’re just saying it will also be on PC.
BG3 will be a PC release as well. Stadia works on any device with an internet connection and input device (shitty laptops, mobile phones, high-end gaming PCs). They are just demoing with Google hardware.

 
Anyone else really underwhelmed by the Stadia stream? I mean... As someone that lives in a rural area with 25mbps down at best and only 2mbps up... Even if I'm fine with 720p, why would I go this route? And they say the games you buy you own, but what about situations like Telltale? The only way we will have those at the end of this month is if you already have them downloaded to the console/PC of your choice. I think I'm happy sticking with Xbox.

Yeah it's a spin off, still more excited than Diablo mobile. I think it's the smart move to bring some life back into the series without sending out another 3rd person game to underwhelm.

I Think the fact that you're posting this on the XBox deals thread proves from the get go it was never meant for you.
