I've never been too into the series. I played a demo for the first game I think and though I thought it was interesting, I never saw myself playing the full game or checking out the sequel.

I'm tempted to check it out when it drops. I liked the first game, but felt it was way too short. I finished the main story too fast. It also felt like fallout in a good way, but I wanted it to be longer like most fallout games. If this game turns out to have more going for it, I'll eventually get it.

Honestly I would probably say sunset overdrive because it was one of my favorite exclusives for the xbone. I played some halo in the past but never got too invested in the series. As for other Xbox titles, I dont know. Maybe the original Fable and Fable 2. I did like Halo 2 as well, but I only played that at a LAN party for a weekend.

For me it's mostly PC, Xbox one and Xbox 360. I haven't touched my 360 in probably a year or two. I don't game much on my Xbox one either. Mostly use it for streaming stuff and YouTube. But my PC is where I game the most now days.

So the dock is essentially what Nintendo has with the switch correct? It sounds like there are alternatives on the market, maybe other ones are better suited for now. I don't own a steam deck so can't really comment on the dock, but I'm curious if there are cheaper alternatives that do just as good.

I have not dropped coffee or any other beverages on my keyboard. I have spilled on my desk before, and that was kinda close to my keyboard. I'm usually safe when it comes to beverages. I don't keep them close to my electronics.

I used to go in the Xbox forums back in the day and read the many topics of people trying to get their bans revoked. Rarely did I ever see it happen. I remember they would ask why and a Xbox team member would respond. Or one of the forum mods will answer it, I forget. They just give the ban reason and that's it. I don't know if anyone got their bans overturned.

True, but I still would have liked to see them start from the first game. Technically you don't have to since both games don't connect. So maybe they will instead do SH2, then do the SH1 and SH3 since those two are sequels to one another. Anyway, I know Capcom did it with RE, they started from the first game onward. So idk, kinda weird to me, but we'll see how it goes.

I don't even remember the last wrc game I played. I know I played one of the games, but there's so many now I've lost count. As for the switch issue, maybe it's not the games but the switch itself. Have you considered reaching out to Nintendo support or maybe reaching out to he team behind wrc to see if they can figure it out?

Oh wow I have no clue what we're looking at here. Is this some kind of racing game? Would help if you gave us more details about what you're looking for. Was it an older game for on DOS? 95,98? Did it involve you racing small cars like hot wheels or something? Idk I'm drawing a blank.

I wonder if it will try to recapture the glory of Need For Speed underground. If so, I think going back to that style, will help it make a comeback. I know my brother was pretty excited about this new one, because it looked so similar. So hopefully they make something good here.

Sadly haven't been doing much gaming lately. Played a game of fortnite this weekend and a little bit of rdr2, but that was it. Been kinda sick and dealing with other health issues as of late so haven't been gaming much.

I do the same with rdr2, but instead of YouTube I'll listen to Spotify or something. I'll sometimes watch a movie at the same time, but I find that it's a bit too hard to pay attention to a movie when I'm gaming.

Exactly. It's about making the game accessible to play. No one wants to get stuck in a dark room they can't find a door too. It's fine to make games dark, but give the gamer a source of light so that we can see enough. Or a good enough flashlight like in Silent Hill 2 for example.

I wouldn't really count What Remains of Edith Finch. Nothing really happens in it aside from puzzles and a story via notes and narration. It's atmospheric, but I wouldn't put it on a list horror games or games for Halloween. But that's just me. I don't view it as a scary game, if anything it's more depressing and sad than scary.

To be fair, most assassin Creed games look good. I always thought the depth of the world was pretty big. Really made you feel like a master when you climb the tallest building and see the massive world from atop.

I'd also add call of duty games. I usually focus mostly on the multiplayer. I do play the single player, but once done I rarely go back. But there have been times where I'll play cod multiplayer for 2 years or more at depending on the game. I did so for Cod 4 back in the day. Got over 100,000 kills. Fun times.

Anyone think Silent Hills will happen with these new Silent Hill announcements? I think it would be so cool to see that happen. Also, I wonder why they didn't start with a remake of silent hill 1. Either way I'm excited. Wonder it Konami will work with Kojima and company again.

There was also two other games revealed those being: Silent Hill F And Silent Hill Townfall https://youtu.be/_ccYsjz_EtQ

Also, in the past video games weren't taken seriously. That's probably why we got so many crap movies around the time video games were just popping off. We have movies on street fighter, double dragon, super Mario Bros etc. With the super Mario Bros movie for example, the original one I mean, I never understood why they didn't just make an animated movie, just like the show. Or to grasp what smb is all about. Love action can be done, I just don't see a reason to make it live action. Which is why I'm glad they went the animated route for the new movie, because it makes more sense and you can do so much more with animation than a live action take.

Honestly, not sure I'd want bad or mediocre movies to be made into video games. Some things don't always translate well from one medium to the other. There is one movie that comes to mind though, and I wouldn't say it's a bad movie, it's one I enjoy, but I think Little Monsters from 1989 would make for a fun video game. Maybe it can delve deeper into the underworld or whatever it was when they went through the portal under the bed. I think it could work as a fun side scroller or something. There is actually a game for the movie The Room, the one from 2001 made by and starring Tommy Wiseau. It kinda got a 2D style game years later, that I think was released on Newgrounds. Oh I found it, it's called The Room Tribute: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/547307

I've been seeing things on social media about how some video games can be bad for kids, but I didn't know it was about arrhythmic heart conditions. But, I can totally see that being an issue for some children and even adults. I'd argue though that it can happen with tv shows and movies. I imagine more so with stuff like horror movies or anything with a lot of surprise.

Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 are some of the biggest that come to mind. I'd also add that some of the Assassin's Creed games has decent horse mechanics. I know Skyrim has a horse, but I didn't like how it controlled from what I remember. I'm sure there are a lot of other games with horses that have realistic motion. Oh, The Last of Us 1 and 2 I think both had horses at points.

It's also why I tend to increase the brightness when playing some horror games, because there are some that are far too dark, even with a flashlight or other sources of light. I want to at least be able to see where I am going. There was a horror game I played years ago, I forget what it was called, but I went into a dark room, and literally got lost because I couldn't see anything. I don't remember if turning up the brightness helped, but it was annoying.

I'm pretty sure they have a dedicated team that was put on Stadia, but that was probably all the support they got. If anything Stadia deserved a lot more support in order for it to succeed. The idea of it is pretty cool, being able to stream games. The thing is, Stadia isn't the only one. Microsoft has Xcloud I think it is, and you can stream certain gamepass games. Amazon Luna is Amazon's answer to Stadia, and it seems to be doing quite well to this day. And I think Nvidia and others have their own streaming platforms. So there are many options available to you.
