@Tasuki Horizon 4 is easily in my top 5 of all time list. One thing I love about them besides the really cool and sometimes obscure cars is the Rewind feature it is perfect for casual play.

Which game in the series is your favourite?

@Kermit1 I have only really played 3. I have dabbled with 4 and 1 but I am trying to complete 3 before I play the other ones. I am very interested in playing the others. I have completed the main story for 3 but my OCD wants to complete all the races and get a few trophies still.

How...How does this topic keep moving so many pages? I admit I've been busy, but....

Anyway, we received a surprise round of snow overnight. Snow in November where I live isn't unheard of, but it's uncommon these days. Especially this early in the month. We went from highs in the mid-70s a couple days ago to a high of near freezing today. The good news is the pavement was still warm enough that shoveling and salting haven't been necessary.

@Sunsy Heck, even chasing mice can have an effect, though it's preferable that the little varmints die. I don't mind rodents...as long as they aren't in my house. Then they're evicted. I think we occasionally overfed those cats, so they became lazy at times lol. Nice deer pic! They've been showing up a lot in my area too. I saw a couple of does in my neighbors' yard yesterday morning. Thankfully, they didn't get too close to the road.

Some people unfortunately like to belittle and insult others if they consider them to be different in some way. I wish I could say this behavior is only limited to children who need to be taught how wrong that is, but unfortunately plenty of adults do this as well. Hence the cycle continues. I can't relate on sensory issues in the touch department, but I am sensitive to strong smells. Perfumes, colognes, sewage, smoke...a lot of it really bothers me. I can tolerate most food smells however.

I believe more people are on the spectrum than we know or realize. I've read some don't learn they're on it until they're in their 60s or higher! Women and girls can be harder to diagnose as well since research shows they (or at least those on the high-functioning end of the spectrum) can mask their symptoms fairly well. Not to mention earlier research mostly focused on males. Or people can be misdiagnosed with other issues, such as depression and anxiety. I did quite a bit of reading after the older of my two cousins on the spectrum was diagnosed. I'm no expert though!

@MarioLover92 Some games do look very good in handheld mode! Others, usually those more optimized for higher res screens, fare better in docked mode in my experience. I do like art on occasion, though I feel some of it is highly subjective lol. I've finished Wario Land 3, but I think I juggled it along with another game to play. That's usually my M.O., just in case I need a change of pace from one game. I'm about finished with picking up 3DS eShop titles, but there are a few I still need to grab on Wii U. Mostly VC games, but there are a couple of exceptions like Pushmo World.

@Tasuki I've only played 4, 3 and 5 didn't really click with me much but I am going to give them a second chance.

Kinda funny we are talking about Xbox because my brother just worked out a plan to get a Series X by grading day and sell our old Xbox's. I'm kinda hyped to see what a full next gen experience is like since we just have the Series S.

Xbox's naming system sucks lol.

@MarioLover92 @lostsocks IT'S ALWAYS BONUS STARS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I absolutely loved that session, thanks so much for inviting me! For my first ever game of proper Mario Party, I did pretty damn fantastic all things considered (that battle minigame leading to me getting just the right amount of coins for the Star was absolutely legendary) and I would love to do it again in the near future!

Also, sorry for bumping the two of you off in Bobsled, I didn't think it would send you flying like that XD

@Kermit1 The thing I like about Horizon is how much customization you can do with the options. I find it very new player friendly. I suggest just cruising around for a bit without racing and trying the right options for you. Then once you get those set try some races.

@Eagly @Kermit1 You can thank Don Mattrick for the name. The reason behind the Xbox One name is because original it was markets as the one device you would need for the living room. An all in one entertainment box essentially.

That’s not surprising considering it is Megan Fox. The bigger question is why it was posted on the site. Although I seem to be more against that type of stuff than most here.

I forgot about that one, But nothing you can really do it not click on it.

Alright time to go kick my sister and her boyfriend out of the room above our garage, and go do a circuit workout.

Nintendo Life just doesn't care like they use to when it comes to their articles. They just post what gets the most clicks like any site nowadays. It's actually really sad how NL has become.

I’m not sure what’s wrong with the costume… it’s a “Sexy Zelda” Halloween costume, but it doesn’t seem particularly extreme.

The article thumbnail seems to be a generic smash bros screenshot.
