    WinAmp is Coming Back From the Dead in 2019

    Good to hear they're working on it. I remember when the site said something about news coming soon and we never heard anything else. I'll add my voice to the choir of folks saying they still use it. It has been my music player of choice since I first saw a .mp3 file and found out what they were.

    19 more original Xbox games added to Xbox One backwards compatibility list

    Glad to see Full Spectrum Warrior on there. I had always wanted to play it again but every time I'd researched the PC version it seems like it doesn't play well with modern systems due to various issues. Mercenaries is another one I'd always wanted to play again since it was only on the PS2...

    A Way Out System Requirements and Launch Trailer

    Got this one ordered a few weeks ago after more details on it. Neat that they'll let you play it with two people but only one has to own the game. Figured I could wrangle one of my friends to play it with or find someone online if nobody wants to play it. Had seen an interview with the devs...

    The Division 2

    I'll be curious to see what they will do with it. I grabbed the first one at launch and ended up shelving it for about a year but then a friend and I played through it together and it was fun with 2 people. The setting had me hooked and it did a great job in my opinion of showing off the city...

    Nintendo Switch Online Coming in September

    I was curious about it when they had announced it but after trying the chat for Splatoon with the phone app and seeing that this will use that setup too I think I'm going to pass. Or might just use it for games like Mario Kart that don't need a lot of coordination via voice to setup.

    Like'em if you Got'em

    I remember seeing those things in Phoenix last year and wondering what they were for. A co-worker pointed it out and it made sense afterwards. I guess some people were so engrossed in their phones that they had to become statistics for those things to exist.

    Apple Rumored to Slash iPhone Prices Due to Lower Demand than Expected

    How in the world will a $50 reduction in price cause sales to increase exponentially?!? Either folks are on the edge and about to pull the trigger to buy them or they're staying away. Heck maybe the general public goes crazy for any "sale"? And to think I grumbled about paying $550 for my...

    Ghost Recon Wildlands Meets Predator

    I figured it was a random bad guy but then saw the text (font or whatever you call it?) from the Predator's computer and was ready for more info. Time to get that game patched up and keep working on the campaign to be ready.

    The Nintendo Switch Has Sold 10 Million Units Worldwide in 9 Months

    I remember telling a friend around launch that I'll wait for numbers like these before assuming the "honeymoon period" had ended where everybody wanted one. I'm glad to see it selling well but I'm confused by the games that are on it. Sure Nintendo stuff will sell systems but besides that most...

    How big is your Gaming screen?

    Have had a 42" plasma TV for the consoles for a while. Still going strong so won't upgrade until it stops working. Last 2 PCs were 17" laptop screens and I finally built a desktop again and got a 27" monitor which seems huge by comparison. Since it has a HDMI input I have my Nintendo Switch...

    Nothing PC at Gamestop ...

    Some of the stores still seem to have a small shelf for the PC but even then half of it seems to be digital download cards. I used to pre-order games at the store down the road from me for easy pickup but switched to Best Buy for the GCU discount and digital since a lot of games are going that...

    XBOX ONE X folks, check in here!

    Thanks for the heads up on this. I had seen someone mention Insects on another site but wasn't sure what they were talking about. This will be something to keep for whenever I upgrade my TV to use as a test so I can hopefully notice the new stuff.

    Horizon Zero Dawn

    Had forgotten about the expansion releasing for this tomorrow. Will have to get my Xbox One X setup and then ignore it for the PS4 to binge on this. Loved the main game and have been debating on playing through New Game + mode. After reading that the expansion content is a branch off the main...

    XBOX ONE X folks, check in here!

    Will get mine hooked up tonight. Had it all weekend but been to lazy to get around to it and wasn't going to wreck the entertainment shelf late last night. I admit that the PC held my attention too with Spintires Mudrunner and Destiny 2. Got my games copied over from Xbox One and just have to...

    Spintires

    Played a map last night with 1 friend. No issues getting connected or during gameplay. Map was called The Bog if I my memory is correct and neither one of us recalled seeing it before. Thinking they had mentioned a new map so perhaps that was it? Had it on hardcore mode and was a fun...

    Euro Truck Simulator 2 - Special Transport

    You're thinking of Desert Bus which I swear I read about in a Sega CD magazine back in the day but now I only know of it from that charity to uses it yearly.

    The Slow Death of the Optical Audio Cable

    That calms my worries about watching it fade away and not being able to use it. I had always meant to record some music from a game via optical since it was released on the Xbox but would probably be easier now to just fire up the game and go hunt the music online between all the streaming...

    The Slow Death of the Optical Audio Cable

    I have an old set of Tritton 5.1 surround headphones that I use with the consoles and have an optical splitter for them due to using them so much. That will suck when I have to retire them if the hardware stops having an optical port on the back. Could always move them to the computer since...

    AT&T's Cable Business Continues to Be Savaged by Cordcutting

    AT&T never wants to upgrade their network anywhere or when they do it is to a small exclusive area and then they brag to high heaven about it. We looked at them for U-Verse before we switched over to cable and I'm glad we did. Granted we're only luck the cable company got scared of Google and...

    Spoilers Ahead! Wolfenstein: The New Colossus Streamed

    Let me get this straight. They're going to show the game off before release and risk hurting sales? Normally stuff like this is a leak that is trying to be kept on the down low but I'm baffled by the publisher letting it get out early. Could be that I'm old and this streaming stuff goes over...

    Apple Let Suppliers Reduce Face ID Accuracy to Speed Up Production

    Heck I just got a new phone after 4 years and the fingerprint thing is amazing. Has me thinking they want to have the "latest and greatest" since fingerprint tech is showing up on other phones.

    Nissin Introduces Noise-Canceling Ramen Fork

    I thought the point of slurping loudly was to show respect in Japan. Of course I read that on the internet and haven't had ramen yet so I could be totally wrong.

    NeoGAF Goes Dark after Sexual Assault Allegations against Site Owner

    Heh I guess it shows how much I lurked on there but even then I still couldn't have missed that. Getting a good laugh out of what I said and the context of Neogaf now that ya'll point that out. :LOL: It was crazy the way stuff would spread on there over the news. I guess I put blinders on for...

    NeoGAF Goes Dark after Sexual Assault Allegations against Site Owner

    I thought that was odd when I was trying to figure out why the site wasn't loading last night and ran across the story. Odd that everyone at the site seemed to be jumping to a reaction without knowing what has happened. Guess we'll get a documentary or write up of the whole debacle eventually.

    Spintires

    I've got it pre-ordered since they're offering a "discount" to previous owners. Guess I shouldn't be so harsh on that since they do list some of the upgrades to the old game but it seems like a minimal upgrade but I'll wait to pass judgement until it's out. I've got it ordered and trying to...

    NeoGAF Goes Dark after Sexual Assault Allegations against Site Owner

    I had been lurking there for years and made threads for the Homeworld games but didn't post otherwise. Was always to afraid to speak my honest opinion because of the way their moderation was done with transparency. People would just be banned with no reason given at all and their rules were...
