@redd214 Oh, man. You could have fooled me. Barely escaped a terminal computer crash last night, don't even know how exactly I got this old brick back into working order again, so I was a bit on edge, to be honest.
Next time, just call me Mad Titan, then I'll know for sure at least...
(or add one of them smile-thingies... )
In a considerably better mood now, though. Gotta love UEFA cup soccer...
@redd214 XBox 3 variant 4 is now "XBox One SAD"...following XBox 1 = XBox 3 and XBox 1 X to distinguish so easily from XBox 1 S..........it's almost like they try to achieve the worst possible naming convention at all times. Now I know how they're getting beaten by a company that can't even figure out how to make a good BluRay player despite co-inventing BluRay.... Of course SAD is still better than "XBox One Discless Edition" which is a very unfortunate name if said too quickly....
@Morpheel Oh jeez, he changed his name again....
"I do wonder what would they call the next Xbox"
I've gone ahead and come up with some Microsoftian naming and slogans for the new generation product. They can pay me royalties later:
XBox Zero. "Because you are what you play."
YBox. "Y. Just Y. "
XBox 1.1 "Everyone hates the previous one. Do-over!"
XBox 9 "When products don't sell, add several whole integers next time! (Company policy, y'know?)"
@Ryu_Niiyama Really enjoying DoA6. The story mode (you hate it anyway) is short, broken, and incomplete, almost insulting. But the fighting is a blast. The level of depth is scary though...they hide it until you get into character tutorials, but the character tutorials are good...more in depth than anything other than BB or maybe GG. I'm far from an FG expert, but I know it's fun, and really feels unique from everything else, play-wise.
@NEStalgia good to hear. I haven’t played story mode in a fighting game since soul calibur III. When I left for work this morning I had 5 hours left on the download so by the time I get back from my astronomical society meeting it will be done. I shall give it a go this weekend. I gotta go find my PS4 stick anyway. Will be building an all in one this year. Cuz this is getting annoying.

@Ryu_Niiyama Hah, yeah, I'm pretty happy with my Atrox and Brook PS4 adapter, though in hindsight I should have gone the other way because I believe PS4 Pantera works on PC natively while X1 Atrox doesn't due to some reason that makes no sense since X1 wired controllers are the default PC controllers... (Atrox build is so much nicer though.... )
@NEStalgia well in my defense I was used to living with my full setup so it was actually easier to have individual sticks. But now that Microsoft is pushing bc (which means VF5FS) I need something with full compatibility. Brook makes a a retro pcb and a current pcb so im going to pick up both and toss em into a spare TE and see how I like it. If they work well I will build a custom. I am planning on going to evo (unless I go to Microsoft Ignite) next year so I will want a custom by then.

@NEStalgia I can get the evo shock since I don’t like to play online (I used to
Buy a three month pass of live every summer and just play fighting games during that time. Free online was why I started to shift to PS for fighting then they broke it next gen. But ps4 has SFV so they win by default ) but I love in person gaming. Hence why I am in a FGC club.
Ignite I am not sure. I am a data professional and MS SSMS is my wheelhouse. And I love tech so I am not sure why that one was surprising. I just hope they don't schedule it and PASS Summit so close together. I already started saving for that.
I think the final dlc for AC odyssey is out cuz my xbone didn’t auto shut off and it does that sometimes when it is downloading.

@Ryu_Niiyama Ahh, I was thinking Ignite was some XBox thing. It sounds it. I love when the sales crowd chooses words that sound like gaming terms for things that involve Power Point presentations. "Get PSYCHED for spreadsheet analysis!! WOOT!! Right? WOOO....guys, cheer with me, mmkay? Okay....."
Between a choice of attending tech-industry business conventions and getting attacked by a brahmin in the Fukushima exclusion zone....I may pick the latter.
@NEStalgia lol that’s so mean but funny, so brava. I look at it this way. I like to learn and that kind of initiative looks really good come review time to boot. Invest in yourself now so you can charge your company to invest in you later.
Yeah I couldn’t go to an Xbox only event. Not enough exclusives in general let alone any I care about. I have gears of war on the horizon... that’s it.

@Ryu_Niiyama@NEStalgia Hm... That kinda got me thinking: Gears of War in Horizon. Wonder what would happen if they'd force together two franchises of that magnitude, and if they'd even be able to make something half decent out of it...
'The console wars are like boobs: Sony and Microsoft fight over which ones look the nicest and Nintendo's are the most fun to play with.'
@ThanosReXXX sounds like a train wreck in waiting to me. I want devs to get back to basics as too many moving parts often equates to a mediocre experience.
