Edit: Just noticed the other thread. Sorry.
I ended up with a bit of an impromptu purchase of a Nintendo Switch. Will be good for work trip that's coming up. It was a bit a PITA of removing and re-adding the thing to get the textbox to be enabled to get the PMAY4TH code input.
Hmm... Does Postal 3 count as AAA? Some around here may still say Rage. And then there's Daikatana. Anyhow, the F7 rating was enough to cause me to pass it over at least until a price drop.
Apparently, opening the wallet for the XB1X wasn't nearly enough since I now have a Thrustmaster TX and Wheel Stand Pro on way for a little FH3 and DiRT4 drunk driving fun. What put things over the edge was that the Thrustmaster TX is said to work with both XBox One and PC. Xmas is early this...
Mine arrived about an hour ago from Amazon order. They really went out of their way to pad the package... My ex-gf used more toilet paper than that in a sitting.
Anxious to see what becomes of keyboard + mouse support. I know people bitch about kbm being "unfair" to those using controllers in some games, but it's not like keyboards and mice are expensive. Hell, they can be had for less expense than the elite controller.

Still showing $279.99 when I looked.
I round up to $280. Never really understood that silly marketing scheme to knock a penny off the price to "trick" people into thinking the item is $1 less than it actually is -- or the 9/10 of a cent for fuel. But, humans aren't the smartest creatures.
Mine's supposedly arriving Friday (07/07). I don't have a motherboard for it - there doesn't seem to be one that's completely stable or problem free when overclocking.
I'm always leery of ebay, but $278 shipped for Ryzen 1700? Camel^3 lowest $296 (not sure if that's amazon or another seller low).
