The plastic holding the band on my arctis 9x has been cracking for some time now and fnally broke.  I now have a wobbly ear on it.  I'm taking a gamble on the $60 used one on amazon warehouse.

Mine that I ordered this month just came with damaged box and looks like it was opened, but inside the headset and USB wire and everything were pristine so here's hoping you get the same.

Persona 5 Royal at 60 FPS feels so much better that I'm just going to abandon my PS4 playthrough.

That was a good "Well, deep in middle of a fucking pandemic with no vaccine still..." distraction. With that said, I finally got around to playing and beating and 100%'ing Inside because by now I figure that ain't coming back so might as well boost that achievement score.

 

Also side note: Inside...that was a game.

Ha I made the same decision this month, on a ton of trash games I had sitting around. Figured I'll just spend October clearing them out, up to 100,000 gamerscore this month.... I'm a loser

Some nice Halo Infinite Twitch drops today. Last day.

200k earned, 192k redeemed.

I was earning most of these drops since they started last year. Unfortunately, the co-op cancellation (and the show) killed whatever enthusiasm I had left for Halo.

They are nice drops, but I just don't care anymore.

I just rolled credits on The Forgotten City and WOW! I have no idea how some of you couldn't get into it. I got the canon ending and did not use any guides which I highly recommend. The game gives me Majora's Mask vibes and I only played it since it was leaving Game Pass but wish I played it earlier. I am going to try to get the other 3 endings now. Might need a guide for that. I HIGHLY recommend this game!

Really glad to hear you enjoyed it. Was shocked to see a bunch of folks here saying they weren't about it and started getting it in my head that I was the only one. I loved it and went for all the endings like you, I found it hard to not want to see all the outcomes. Really unique game and really cool. Don't want to discuss too much with it leaving gamepass soon and don't want to spoil anything but yeah just glad to hear you enjoyed it!

Really glad you enjoyed! I fell in love with the game as well. Highly recommend The Forgotten City for anyone that's a fan of Skyrim, not surprising since it was originally a Skyrim mod made by one person. I like games that provide huge emotional payoffs after just a few hours of playing instead of huge 200 hour affairs. I stumbled across the documentary making of the game by NoClip. Might make you appreciate the game even more.

 

 

As for getting alll of the endings and achievements, there's a guide over on PSN Profiles, Trueachievements and one by IcyShades over on youtube.

 

Hope that helps! Salve friends!

I was wondering WTF was going on seeing everything pop up in the TA feed.

Forgotten City's character conversations looking straight out of Skyrim makes sense now, knowing that it was originally a mod.  I’m enjoying it so far.

Of course we already have the FPS boost but a formal next gen version will be nice.

Well, looks like we can't look on in envy at PlayStation Premium (or whatever it's called) having expiration dates months in advance on their games because now they just have a vague "Last Chance To Play" listing with no particular date.

So it's a bummer when our "two'ish week" notice is now the standard.

 

Also Jesus the Bayonetta/Hellena Taylor drama is some straight up train wreck reading that I can't stop reading...

Sounds like they are maybe cranking up some of the visual settings for the 4K mode. Hopefully an improvement to mod storage size. Plus there isn't an FPS boost on Playstation.

I just finished up my last few achievements for Fallout 4 earlier this year, but I'll probably revisit it for a fresh playthrough if they can fix it so downtown Boston doesn't crash constantly. For now I should probably build a nice stable modded load order and skip updating for a few months while the kinks get worked out. Seems very likely the update will break a ton of the existing mods and Fallout modders may not rush to get them updated to work on the new code since tons of the mods were originally posted like 5 years ago.

Curious if the bonus creation club stuff just means they are finally adding the last batch of new CC releases, or if they will be forcing a few into the base game like Skyrim's fishing was. Even if they do an anniversary edition for all the CC stuff as a bundle I would still worry they may impact the performance since that game ran a hell of a lot better before the updates that added CC.

Only total trash is earnable for free, only two new skins at $20 each with the rest of the trailer focused on old items, and the same basic event from the previous 5 years. 40,000 dislikes in 4 hours. Truly, this is Overwatch 1.1

Admittedly, there is one additional new skin that will be a Twitch drop so that's nice.

Don't get your hopes up on that last bit. The Twitch drop skin is a Winston skin from the Halloween event in 2020.

Honestly surprised at how 60 FPS feels so much better in Persona 5, a game that doesn’t require a ton of fast action. Graphics seem to pop more too in the “new gen” version. Would be nice to transfer my PS4 progress but it’s also the non-Royal version. So Fuck it. Starting over on Series X. (Actually already 2 hours in. 130 or so to go).

You couldn’t transfer progress from non Royal to Royal on PS4 anyhow. I never played vanilla but everything I read before I bought Royal on PS4 say it’s a big improvement. The graphics pop(like you sai) more in the new gen version too, whether it’s the anime cutscenes or in game stuff. I’m pleasantly surprised they included the dlc from the most expensive version of the game. I’m definitely buying it during Xmas. As much as I love this game, I can’t bring myself to pay $60. $40 and you got a deal.

By DLC are you referring to the extra semester in Royal?

Going through my Wishlist and I noticed some of the games show that the "deal" expires in 22 days. That lines up with Black Friday sales which generally start a week before Thanksgiving. The games I noticed...

 

Soul Hackers 2

 

Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium Bundle

 

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle

 

Digimon Survive

So November 17 based on me using Google because I'm too lazy to figure it out myself.

 

Also looks like Age of Empires II is going to be announced today for XBox (probably Game Pass as well).
