I am enjoying Metro Exodus... very fallout style but still clearly Metro game.

Now approaching the valley, I love simply sitting and listening to the others in the trains between locations, and the exploration is perfect, it's just about big enough to explore and also the right vehicles to do so.

Anyone playing this? https://store.steampowered.com/app/843380/Super_Animal_Royale/ Dumb fun.

Think 'he' might be settling down for a nap...

Just as I said I wasn't going to spend the whole day in front of a computer... rebooting in 10...

Started playing The Division 2. Really good start. No crashes. Occasional jitter. Overall very smooth. Still same formula, so working through the storyline. Occasionally die so not too easy but not difficult you can't progress.
I loved the first one so this is much of the same so I'm happy.
this weekend will be interesting when everyone else logs on.
graphics are better, layout is smoother.

What headset is best for xbox? Im looking at something that doesn't look like a gaming headset. About £100? Wireless if possible.
What reduces mic feedback?
I like the Arctis 7 but uncertain as its quite dear.

What's people's feelings?

I didn't realise it was out yet. I've been playing Anthem, only maybe 10 hours in but I'm enjoying it.

Preorders got a few days extra. Spread people out a bit. But I think it's like gold and limited edition or something.

I use the arctis 3. plugged into controller. i like them a lot. also use on laptop for conf. calls. cable doesn't get in way at all.

I've got Steelseries arctis too, they're so comfy with the suspended strap.

Suspended strap?

Yeah, it's like the strap on ski goggles but goes over the top of your head. Most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. I used some at a games testing focus group then immediately went and bought some.

what about bluetooth in-ears? no wires, no hot ears and you can even use them to listen to birdsong, pornography or the latest goings on on the hit parade!

these are great!

I believe I got mine off your recommendation in fact.

Spread the good word, bröther

Still loving smash bros, anyone else? Playing Lucario, Yoshi and Luigi mostly, with a dabble in Bowser Jr if I want to piss people off

Don't suppose anyone plays Modern Warfare Remastered on the PS4?
It's pretty much all I play other than GameBoy games

Been dabbling. Young Link is my main. From looking at the SBUltimate subreddit, I feel far too unskilled to take myself online yet.

Anyone got a spare gaming headset I could borrow for a few weeks? The Arctis headset is a bday gift so have to wait til early next month to get. Or can one use a normal headset with inline speaker?

Yeah but gaming communities online - abbreviate and obfuscate everything they talk about because it's their thing. I don't think it's so bad.
The guy in my lab who plays young link has been loving online - though he's the only one I know who pays for it

Tips on the new Division. Worth a read if you're about to embark on this amazing adventure.

How ppl getting on with the division?

Yes it's great, trip down memory lane when FPS games were less cluttered and simple, with some classic maps

Been playing Halo 3 this week. Man, I forgot how insanely good the multiplayer is.
