I Put over 30 hours into Persona 5 vanilla over the 4 day weekend and I ordered a gaming chair with foot rest. I Can't tell if this is a cry for help or not.

I still think you're crazy, coming from somebody that did 2 full playthroughs of Persona 4 on PS2, and 2 full playthroughs of P4 Golden on Vita.

You have no idea how much I'm going to appreciate P5R with Baton Pass being a feature ready from the get go with each teammate as opposed to P5 and it's "Here's a new teammate, but can't do Baton Pass until you beat the palace they're introduced at and then go hang out with them" like holy shit that alone is making me excited for my P5R playthrough next year.

I have no idea what this means but i guess i should open p5r and not try to play through the free version of persona 5

I loved vanilla but the QoL stuff in P5R is gonna make it hard for me to go back to vanilla.

I'm almost 40 hours into Royal and while there are still some bits that don't thrill me, vanilla was one of my 3 favorite games ever and Royal is *better* in every way that matters.

It's your lucky day... UHD code for Heavy Metal (yes, the old animated movie) for first quote. 

 

Seriously, the UHD deals for the Black Friday/Cyber Monday etc have been insanely great.

I legit hadn't bought a physical movie in over a year or two at least, then Target dropped all those Disney movies for ~$8 ea. + the B2G1 was running so I got Lightyear and Thor L&T for ~$12 after cancel trick. No idea why either since they're all on D+ but couldn't resist an actual deal for once. I'm certainly enjoying all these MA $5 deals to finally collect 4k upgrades and additions.

Okay, I went ahead and bit on Sonic Frontiers for $29 at Walmart.

 

5 hours in and I'm enjoying it a lot.

That's how the first 20-30 hours go, a blur. There's so much stuff to unlock (items, character) that become variables which impact runs, don't hesitate to look at a guide if you can't get to the next stage or can't find a character. There's still a ton more content beyond any one thing and it'll just speed up your enjoyment.

I bought it at $39 when the price first dropped and I don’t regret it at all. 16 hours in and I’m still addicted to the literal and figurative loop.

Love it. This is exactly the sort of hilarious, yet ridiculously priced novelty thing that makes me wish I was 20 again so I could spend my money on stupid crap instead of my kids' 529s.

I Actually bought Bladed Fury when it was on sale for over 70% off and don't know shit about it besides cheap and good meta critic. Regardless ya'll welcome.

Colt Canyon: 206 players on TA, 2 completed it.

Bladed Fury: 337 players, 9 completed.

 

Those seem pretty low for player counts.  Colt doesn't look like it's for me, Bladed Fury I had never heard of before, but it looks neat style-wise.

They’re okay games but think MS really would be better killing off GWG. I mean pretty much every month it looks ridiculous against PS Plus (this month being Mass Effect Legendary trilogy, Biomutant and some new fighting game). It’s just embarrassing. Do the MS higher ups not see how it looks?

Microsoft looks at GWG the same way Sony looks indifferently at the most expensive tier of PlayStation+. So it's all perfectly balanced.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions about how to get Rock Band content for the Xbox 360 on the cheap? I still have the equipment and a few of the discs (RB1, Lego, and Beatles) but I'm missing everything else.

Looks like GameStop no longer carries any of the games or DLC. Nothing turned up on my local Craigslist.

Last week of the month for the Game Pass quests.  3 play weeklies this week, I guess to balance out only 1 from last week.

Look into RB3 and customs...Google is your friend.

Is there any resources outside of Rock Band Aide? That website has gone down and that was the premiere source for customs.

Not likely as long as Sony is pushing the monthly Plus lineup so they can say (on paper) that the services are similar, even though Sony has had some huge gets (Mass Effect Legendary in December) and MS has only been unknown indie games for awhile now. I used to defend GWG but it's clear all their licensing budget is focused on Game Pass now. I doubt there's any holdouts who only have Gold who are looking forward to GWG the way we used to back in 2017 etc.

Pawn shops are loaded with guitar hero games for a few dollars, I always find world tour at the thrift store as well

Ebay, Amazon, etc. assuming you're talking about the other DLC discs (Green Day, etc.) You can still buy music through the Xbox store too.

I currently have 4 drives on my Series X: the internal 1 TB, a 1 TB expansion card, a 1 TB SSD and a 4 TB non-SSD.  Series stuff is on the internal and card, non-Series is on the SSD and stuff I'm not planning to play anytime soon is on the 4 TB.

 

A couple weeks ago, there was an update for MS Flight Simulator.  That's on the expansion card, and the system did a full download of the game.  The card only had a few GBs free, so I thought it might've been because there wasn't enough space on the card for the update, but if the update was replacing enough files, there might've been enough room on the card for a fresh download.  After it finished, there was under 100 MB free on the card.  Considered asking here if anyone might've noticed their system doing a full redownload instead of an update when their drive was nearly full.

 

Then came an update of a few GBs for Sea of Thieves, which is also on the card.  The system wouldn't download it, I needed to free up some space.  Shifted something to the 4 TB and the update downloaded.

 

Today, there was a 29 GB update for Avengers, which is also on the card.  There was ~2 GB free on the card, 16 on the internal, 9 on the SSD and 192 on the 4 TB.  The update downloaded without issue.

 

I've always assumed (dangerous as that can be) that updates were fully downloaded to the same location as the game and then applied.  Is that not the case?  Can updates download to wherever there's room?  Avengers is 166.2 GB after the update, not sure if that changed.

Need for Speed Unbound is pretty fun from what I’ve played so far. Best NFS game in a long time. Plays like a combination of Burnout Paradise and Heat (though considerably better than the latter).

Hopefully I can stretch the 10-hour trial long enough to wait for a decent sale on it. Don’t forget to use yours if you have any interest in racers.
