    HP Reverb G2

    Finally was able to get a G2 from the MS store last week. I use VR exclusively for sim racing via iRacing and have had a Samsung Odyssey+ for the last ~2 years. I was absolutely blown away at the improvement in clarity for the G2 vs the Samsung - iRacing is like a whole different game now and...

    Call of Duty Black Ops 4

    I've never really been a CoD player, but a bunch of my gaming friends picked this up, so I went ahead and grabbed it Friday. So far I'm really liking it. The pace of multiplayer definitely takes some getting used to, but it's a fun change from some of the other games I've done. I also really...

    World of Warcraft Far From Dead, Battle for Azeroth Breaks Launch Day Record

    I'd played through all the Legion content and re-activated my sub for BfA. So far it's been a lot of fun, especially with the focus on war mode pvp interactions in world quests.

    WoW; 7th expansion Battle for Azeroth

    My feral druid does ok with 2~3 mobs, but it's nothing like my ret. pally. That was basically hax while leveling.

    WoW; 7th expansion Battle for Azeroth

    Based on how things are going, you're not actually missing anything since very few folks seem to be able to log on.

    WoW; 7th expansion Battle for Azeroth

    Yeah, it's live now, although the legacy servers are a mess. Took me 90 minutes in the queue on Stormrage and its super slow doing anything. Edit: Annnnd just like that booted from the server. I pretty much expected this, but am still disappointed.

    I've been looking at this with some interest but haven't bit yet - Will definitely give it a try over the weekend to see what all the hype is about.

    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    So far I haven't had any issues in ~30 hours of use, including a number of really long gaming sessions. Overall I'm happy with the monitor and think that at the sale price it's a pretty solid buy.

    WoW; 7th expansion Battle for Azeroth

    I'll second that - I recently used my boost after not playing for awhile and just eased into it. I was doing dungeons and my first raid (yay!) within a pretty minimal amount of time.

    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    I just picked up one of these this week on sale coming from a 27in Dell IPS that I've had about 5 years. So far I really like it - the extra size is great for general use, and I had no idea what a huge improvement moving to 144hz would be from an older 60hz. The colors and text sharpness...

    PUBG Gets New Smaller Map to go With New Smaller Playerbase

    They sort of have that with the war modes that run periodically - spawn with a KAR and a ghille suit or some such. I find those modes to be more fun than the standard mode, or at least something fresher and different. Still have to jump out of the plane, but it's a little quicker.

    Hunt Down the Freeman in 3 Weeks

    +1 It's been long enough that I don't really care about Half Life anymore. Even if 3 was legitimately announced tomorrow, I'd have a hard time getting excited.

    AI Becoming so Complex its Creators Don't Know How it comes to a Decision

    Basically. I would rather live with arbitrary AI decisions than most of the decisions (arbitrary or not) made by actual humans.

    NASA Goes Back to Chainmail for New Rover Tires

    This is pretty common for severe service applications like mining already. Still neat to see them use a simple, existing solution to their problem.

    Myriad Missions for Murfreesboro Drones

    Given the number of accidents on I-24 near the 'Boro, I believe them when they say they can save money this way.
