I think this is a safe space for me to by catty about Nintendo, right?

Metroid Prime 4 looks like how I remember Gamecube games look.

Wow, GTA VI is being delayed again. Pushed back from May to November 19 of next year. Maybe I'll finally get around to playing GTA V before then.

GTA V is amazing. I just wish I didn't have to play it for the 20th time just to get my GTA fix. Oh well, we'll get GTA VI and ESVI eventually.

I wish we didn't announce things like a decade ahead of time - this especially applying to ES6. It doesn't build tension or anticipation IMO, it's just disappointing.

I'd rather they push it back over rushing it.

Ball x Pit rules. Another Game Pass gem.

This absolutely evaporated my night. Started after work in the evening and before I knew it it was 1:30 am.

Anyone playing ARC Raiders? I’d be open to party up if anyone wants to, have only played about 10 hours so far.

I want to play it at some point. I'm gonna have to go out and get some kind of headset or mic it sounds like. I see a lot of players want a strictly PvE mode. That sounds like it'd be great.

Yea definitely need a headset and mic. The game has great sound and proximity chat is useful to try and convince people not to shoot you :lol:

I’ve been playing mostly solo but the few times I had some mates it was much more enjoyable.

If you're not even gonna nominate Clair Obscur in the relatively new Best Video Game Song/Soundtrack categories at the Grammys then why have the award at all.

I've been playing it a good amount. No idea how many hours but I'm probably around level 25 or so. It's the first extraction looter game I've really enjoyed (unless The Division qualifies).

Their check must've not cleared like Disney's and Sony's.

Well, time to go back in time 15 years - Heroes of Newerth Reborn comes into beta today, so I guess it's time to remember why I hate MOBAs lol.

Uninstalled Outer Worlds 2. Didn't think it was interesting at all. Opened up KC:D2 for the first time in a while and the damn UPDATE is almost 90 GB. Jesus.

Looking for a new office chair. Currently have a herman miller aeron size c but lost 70 lbs so the chair is freaking huge. I like the chair but it was literally the first chair I spent more than 100 bucks on. I have absolutely zero complaints about but since im getting a new chair id like to explore my options

I work from home and use it about 50 hours a week. Are there any warehouses that you can try out some good office chairs in the milwaukee area? Anyone other recommendations?

I've sat in this working from home for a decade, and it's been recommended to several happy...sitters?

This is what I've been waiting for and signals my full move into the PC ecosystem (which I was already committed to - never play my PS5). The market wasn't there the first time they tried this a decade ago, but I think it sure is now.

I'm really excited for the next Xbox. I'm glad Valve is entering the competition and setting the bar.
