Just finished Ori and the Blind Forest. Pretty game and very fun aside from a few frustrating escape sequences. Haven't started the next one (Will of the Wisps) yet. Playing a bit of Into the Breach for turn based stuff, and some Super Meat Boy when the twitchy mood strikes as well. Need to...

I saw some youtube videos (Nerd Nest I think) where he did some fairly sophisticated control mapping examples using the track pads & layers to map multiple functions to single buttons based on having other modifier buttons pressed. I haven't had time to try out his examples but the...

My shoulders are kind of wide so I actually like the width, don't feel like I am scrunching my arms in to hold it. I agree that pressing the shoulder buttons during gameplay feels a bit awkward so far, though maybe I just need to get used to it. My fingers want to be where the triggers are...

Yeah I haven't played anything super demanding yet but so far I haven't noticed much difference between the games launched on the SD card vs internal. I got a 512GB Samsung SD card that seems to be working great, filled a good chunk of it with a bunch of games from my backlog that maybe I'll...

Heh I was just going to ask if anyone noticed their audio settings changed. I had mine set to home theater (or whatever it was named before I forget) and 5.1, and after the update it was set to TV. Had to go back in and change it and re-set it to 5.1 again. Popped in my 2TB 980 Pro with an...

Like many I hated having to install it and dragged my feet, only finally did it to play HL2. Also like many I now have collected more games in my backlog than I can ever conceivably play.

That all-black treatment does look pretty nice, and I do like the more matte brushed-look of the middle skin now that you've shown it. Though I have to say the white side panels have grown on me a little, almost every piece of electronics I own is black so it's something different. It clashes...

Really looking forward to Spider-Man 2 & the idea of a Wolverine game made with the same studio/quality as Spider-Man is pretty awesome, really looking forward to that one. The new God of War is obviously on the radar too, played the older ones back on PS3 but haven't played the more recent PS4...

Oh yeah, looking forward to it. The only thing about having so many cool games out there that I want to play is focusing on one long enough to beat it before another shiny one lures my attention away. As far as getting one, the way I got mine was I bit the bullet & got one of the bundles...

Really been digging my PS5 as well. I never had a PS4 so my last real console was a PS3, big jump in graphics and tons of games to pick from since I've never played any PS4 games at all. Finished Ratchet & Clank, very pretty graphics & fun game, I liked it a lot. Also almost finished with...

Entered the shuffle the other day (never been selected for any 3080s or anything) and on a whim selected a couple of the PS5 bundles as well. Ended up "winning" one and said what the hell and got it, haven't had a new console since early in the PS3 days. I know I overpaid for the bundled...

Originally built my current TR 2950x rig with 32 GB (figured I probably didn't need more, save a little $$), but VMs & work-related memory pigs like Visual Studio/SQL Server/Chrome (lol) have been eating most of that up regularly for some time. Finally got tired of bumping into my memory...

I think if cops did something besides hide behind bushes giving out tickets to fill their quotas some of this type of stuff might not be necessary. Obviously this is not murder or something but they just don't give a shit and the crooks know it, and we are not allowed to defend our property...

Yeah I hadn't used them for many years after ticking me off long long ago, but they happened to have a couple things that Amazon / B&H didn't have in stock, guess this is my reward for giving them another shot.

Just got an email: Yesterday, we learned one of our servers had been injected with malware which may have allowed some of your information to be acquired or accessed by a third party. The malware was quite sophisticated and we are conducting extensive research to determine exactly what...
