Dude bought out the Fallout 1st domain name from under Bethesda and uses it for criticism of the company's plans to implement a pay-to-win system.

Anyone playing the new CoD? I have been playing since release 9pm Thursday. Man it's a good game. Only played MP though so not sure about single player campaign mode yet.

Curious to when the new PS5 will be released. Anyone have any info?

Cant offer any info on CoD, sorry.

CoD still isn't getting any more of my money.

I played this one the first time it came out

I have been playing it after a 4-5 year hiatus from CoD due to their weird futuristic crap. New one is VERY good.

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands expansion announced. 15 year anniversary events planned.
New Hearthstone content.
Diablo 4 confirmed.
Heroes of the Storm getting a new character, Deathwing.
Starcraft 2... not sure if there was anything for that.



Reviews for Kojima's "Death Stranding" are excellent.

Lot of gaming happening.

Red Dead Redemption 2 hit PC... to some technical issues, apparently. My PC should be capable, but my i5-3750K CPU is the one expensive bottleneck that's starting to show its age. Can't really upgrade *just* a CPU without upgrading the mobo... and then the RAM... so a new PC build is probably in my near future.

Death Stranding out tomorrow for PS4. My Collector's Edition is set to arrive...

Edit: oh god oh god best buy shipped it early it's coming today

Like a kid at X-Mas

I seldom get games when they come out anymore. I'd rather wait until they are fixed.

My 7-hour (p)review of Death Stranding:

It's unique. It looks amazing. It's absolutely a Kojima game.

So I'm excited to continue playing and take in more of the story.

Congrats to Kojima and Kojima Productions.

Just finished Death Stranding. Incredible journey, connections with my fellow players, just a unique and unforgettable experience.


Also, rumors about the ending being 2+ hours....

Let's just say I'll be tired as hell for work tomorrow.
