I Realize this is exactly how I feel and play when games like Fallout, Deus Ex and Outer World's when I get a stat/skill based dialogue option.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V91Y7MRw7eo

 
I think I'm ready to just buy Titanfall 2 digitally. I've seen the extra version disc game for like $7 and the digital normal version for like $4.99. I loved the game when I rented it and so I need to own it. I'll look for a black Friday sale and see if the extra content is worth the price.
Titanfall 2 had one hell of a single player campaign. Every time I watch someone stream Apex Legends, I want to play it again.
 
Microsoft.com sales live for consoles and controllers.


Just ordered a Midnight Special forces II controller.

Just finished Old Mans Journey. And I’m not crying it raining on my face.
Wonder game and storytelling. Extremely powerful especially for y’all with kids

(And it’s part of the 10000) in 10 days, it’s also less than 2 hours)
Yeah, great little game. Wish I hadn't already 100% it. Another easy 1000 I got toward the 10000 was Minit, you can use the following guide and get it done in about 2 hours.

https://youtu.be/AqDpKg85-LQ

By the way, any of you notice the new game pass rewards? Not the ones in the rewards app, but the ones located in the achievements section? These tasks go a lot more in depth that the ones in the reward app and offer quite a bit of points. Looks like they started offering them on the 17th but I just noticed them today. They have daily, weekly and monthly tasks.

Minit was rather fun for what it was. Entertaining Zeldaaesque clone. Not sure on the video guide, but some walkthroughs try to combine the under 25 deaths run into the first playthrough. Do not do that and stress yourself. You'll later unlock Mary Mode which removes the timer and you can explore at your leisure.

I believe the guide does a minimalist run in 16 runs which gives you quite the cushion to mess up, then you go back through and mop up collectables. I ended up doing it in 20 runs and didn't need Mary Mode at all. The toughest was doing the New Game + mode but using his guide, even it wasn't that difficult.

My first Minit run had about 35 deaths. I had most deaths early on while I was still adjusting to the gameplay and the map getting lost a few times. My New Game+ run was exactly 25 deaths, most of which were by the scorpions in the dark and a few in the desert.

I played Mary Mode even after getting all the achievements since I could finally relax and enjoy the scenery.
 
As somebody who somebody gets a nostalgia kick with older COD games, it would have been nice if Activision/Microsoft did something about how many modders are on the old 360 games. I understand that they are 7-10 years old BUT if you're going to continue to sell them, you should be under some obligation to not leave all of them unplayable.

 
There's the Fallen Order campaign finished at 81% complete. I give it a solid 8. I did play the last half on easy because I didn't want to mess with parry timing.

The DLC is all cosmetic stuff for MP, so unless that really interests you, get the standard edition. Best SP campaign in an FPS I've played in over 10 years, serious Half Life 2 vibes.

What was your finish time?

i bigger issue is that i own the world of war collection which is i think the first 3-4 of that series and their is no attempt to allow the sale of that collection, may be b/c but why they wont sell that collection digitially is frustrating since u see a couple of those for sale but all of them

 
A lot of Best Buys Black Friday deals just went live. Almost all their Xbox S/X models are on sale. Just picked up the Fallen Order XboxS for $199.

 
I have them both. So you're saying the X is not an improved version? That games don't run better on the X. I can link you a bunch of video comparisons if you want?
I can one hundred percent tell you that the X is an improvement and runs better than the S. I can also say that all games do NOT run like crap on an S. If you just buy an S you will not say "Wow, this game is unplayable!".

Runs like crap does not mean unplayable but nice strawman.
 
I didn't want to start an argument :(
You didn't start it. My wording was a little strong so it triggered the other person. He probably has an S and took it personal.

I just wanted to advise you that a lot of the recent games don't run optimally on it. At the end of the day it's your choice and I understand not wanting to spend more. Either way enjoy the new console. Fallen Order is so damn good.

It is funny because the second I sent my reply telling you that you are wrong I KNEW you would say you can link to videos saying the X is better. Even though I never said it was not. Maybe you are the "triggered strawman" to use your cool internet buzzwords.

I have an XBox One X Scorpio edition BTW.

To me running like crap means unplayable. But okay, for you what does running like crap mean? Obviously it does not run as well as it does on the more powerful console. That does not equate to running like crap. Sorry I upset you so much by calling you out on being wrong.

Yeah man I'm clearly upset. Lol. Have a nice day.
 
Doesn't Fallen Order run at 720p on base? That's pretty not good.
And save file doesn't list time, I can't remember. At least 20 hours, some of that trying to navigate/figure out puzzles/look up solutions to where to go to not be lost. I think I only had to look up one puzzle solution as I didn't realize the thing they wanted me to move was something I had already looked at.

Off topic but tempted to get a PSVR with one or these BF deals. Should I give in? Yes, I could ask in the PSN thread, but you guys are cooler. :)

Yes. There are a lot of pretty good experiences and short games that wont break the bank, but I've noticed you like racing games and one of the best things I've played on psvr is wipeout.

I don't know if I would get one without a ps4 pro, though. The difference is notable. May cut down on motion sickness, too.

Considering what the PSVR sold for separately, $200 with the console and games is an insane deal. I assume Sony is trying to clear out stock for the new VR set that will accompany the PS5.

If the new Half Life was coming to PSVR, I'd probably get one.

I Like it alot. Ton of great games so long as you got the room and everything. The only thing that sucks about it is the cable. It totally gets in the way of everything, but really my only big complaint. Supposedly it'll be compatible with the PS5 though so that's a pretty big plus, you know, so long as the next one isn't wireless in which case I may just buy that.

 
Thanks guys.

I’m actually thinking of doing the Kohl’s deal on Thanksgiving that has Astrobot and Moss. I already have RE 7 and Wipeout. And even though Kohl’s bundle has fewer games, it’ll have $60 Kohl’s cash. So will kinda be like getting it for $140.

And, yeah, I don’t have a Pro and won’t be getting one just for this so that is a bit of concern on how well it performs without one.

I Play it on my Slim and I have had no problems with it

 
Astrobot is one of the best PSVR titles.
I don't think the PS4/PS4 Pro make much of a difference.
Really? For me it was night and day. Played lots of psvr on base ps4 then got a pro at some point and it was a big improvement.
The reason being is because most VR games have variable resolution to keep frame rate high because it is critical to the experience. With the pro, the games are running at that higher resolution more often.

I won a PSVR from Taco Bell awhile back in 2016. I think because of the lack of games back then and how there’s so many wires, I ended up gifting it to my siblings. It’s a pretty cool experience but I would only play it in short spurts. I think it has more games now and I think they changed up some audio wiring or something with the new version. So I know it may be silly to some but because it clutters up my entertainment center due to all the wires and such you plug on and off my PS4 Pro, and with little ones running around, the clutter is a turn off to me lol. I don’t even think my siblings use it as much as well. If there’s a Must Play PSVR game, I can always borrow it back, but so far to me there really isn’t one, or I need more than just a few.

So i won a Wal Mart gift card from taking a survey. Trying to buy XBL money with it but the option to pay with a gift card does not show up no matter what I do. Anyone encounter this problem before?
 
I bought my wife the Purple Fortnite controller for $39 on Amazon, she bought me the Red one last year so I thought she needed her own that she doesn’t let the kids play with.
 
It seems to make more sense buying an S over an X at this point. $150 difference at a lot of places which will buy you 15+ games alone this time of year for a small visual upgrade for.... a year? Not worth it. I'll probably be picking up the Star Wars bundle like the other guy, but hoping to get it at target for $40 GC included.

That's a sweet controller. If I didn't just get the Elite Series 2 that I don't need I would buy that one.

years ago they cancelled my order like 10 times in a row when trying to use a walmart gc balance for an xbox card. never worked. Looks like it's still a pain in the ass

 
I don't think you can buy any digital currency with gift card at Walmart.

Apparently they are the only major retailer that has this restriction, I finally found a page confirming it. Feeling rather annoyed, I had planned to use it on the XBL sale and otherwise never step foot in Wal-Mart.

 
FYI - the Rocket League Quest for the 5 saves doesn't seem to be working. I made a few saves and it even said so on the screen at the time but I didn't get credit for the that portion of the quest.
