Never had an ex box but know enough that that do, so it’s familiar just from years gone by and being with people that had an ex😁

I think you’ll find it’s called a ‘cross box’.

Shit at language so i’ll defer to your superior knowledge.  
Only problem, doesn’t that cover all consoles(users)?  
If it’s a “cross box”, i’ve played it far more times than I’d like to admit.

So I experimented a bit at uni, I have since repented so my soul is safe.

I have just finished The Outer Worlds. It’s basically Fallout set in something so close to the Firefly 'verse that I’m surprised that there has been no lawsuit.

It is very good.

Buy one game at a time, dude. You’ll finish them that way.

Intrigued by Death Stranding. Kojima kinda rules.

I’m gonna get them both at Sainsburys (stock allowing) with their double up nectar thing, will essentially be getting them for free :lou_smiley:

Watched a 7 minute trailer for Death stranding and still have no fucking clue what is meant to be going on, love it!

Death Stranding has gathered some divisive reviews. I might wait for the discount and more long term assessments.

Outer Worlds reminds me a lot of both Fallout and the Knights of the Old Republic sequel Obsidian did. Also reminds me a lot of Star Wars : The Old Republic.

For anyone that still has a Gamecube compatible Wii, look up Nintendont. It’s a means of playing Gamecube games from an SD card or USB media.

So I had 100 quids worth of nectar vouchers, so got myself Death Stranding, Red Dead 2 and Uncharted 4, all for freeeee! I will just have to buy Outer Worlds the old fashioned way. But that lot should keep me busy for the next year at least :lou_lol:

What’s Death Stranding Like?

Red Dead 2 is now on my pile of shame list. Got it for Chrimbo last year and haven’t played it overmuch.

Some people are going to hate it with a passion. Hideo likes to fuck with gamers and he’s going all out this time by initial impressions. The game itself is absolutely stunning, beautiful, and like most kojima games it’s heavy on the cut scenes. With regard to game mechanics it’s like they have taken all the things gamers rely on and made them a burden, primarily carrying/hoarding too much stuff, and trying to get anywhere quickly. Carry too much stuff or try to go too quickly and you will get fucked up. There is no fast travel system. There is very little action. My first mission was to take a corpse to an incinerator which involved me carrying said corpse on my back, over rough terrain which throws you all over the shop, and it took me about 45 minutes. have only played a few hours but I am sure lots more in terms of game function and abilities will be revealed as I progress. So far I am undecided but Kojima has rarely let me down so I will persist.

The game is growing massively in a few different ways. I am hooked. It still isn’t for everyone, it will take up a lot of your time if you want to do it properly.

Sounds like a good game to play while stoned.

I’ve had a go at the new Star Wars Jedi : Fallen Order.

It is Jedi Knight meets Uncharted, done by the original Call of Duty Modern Warfare developers. It is quite hard, but it looks and sounds gorgeous and is the sort of game you’d almost be just as happy just watching.

It’s a shame because Battlefront 2 on the PS2 is one of the greatest Star Wars games ever, if not _the_ greatest (I haven’t played every single one), EA really fucked up that franchise.
