Update/remove the blur param at your peril

I've got one and it's not great - the noise cancelling is super weak. Better off paying for a decent set of wired Bose or similar.

I know there's some X-COM love in here, X-COM 2 currently on sale at both GOG & the Nintendo e-shop. Tempted by the Switch version though performance looks to be a bit iffy.

is that the full fat xcom2 with all the DLC etc?

Just the base game on GOG (for around £2 or so), but the DLC all looks to be 50-75% off too: https://www.gog.com/game/xcom_2

But the Switch version looks to be everything for around £15

I have xcom 2 on switch. It actually works really well, with occasionally slow load times. The control system works, the graphics have been adjusted and work well.

On a related note, Xenonauts 2 is still in development (think it's been 5 years now). Was really looking forward to that but am pretty wary of a (relatively) small project being in development for so long. The underlying engine (Unity) has had some pretty big changes along the way that hopefully they've been incorporating along the way. Could be another Duke Nukem Forever if not.

Quick question, is the CoD zombie dlc really just mini maps?

How does one get value out of it?! Lots of monies to not get any story is really annoying...

... COD...

Hmmmm

Any sign of your new xbox yet?

Bought dying light. It may be old but it's still quiet exciting/ the scares.... Fuck me.

Apparently being posted today for Sunday.

You have to pay for the zombies DLC?

No clue... I bought a delux edition... No idea what was free or not. I wanted the zombie part.

Ah, as far as I know, the DLC is free. Sounds like they've extended the Outbreak map but I only started playing Zombies recently so a lot of the content is new to me.

sucker, mine arrives tomorrow.

I was hoping mine is arriving today.

Anyone have Demon's Souls for the PS5 they want to move on?

Interesting read.
Especially about how covid has affected games development.
Hadn't realised the importance of irl interaction. For this and had assumed wfh would be fine for the industry.

Though seeing how covid affected the release of Hades in the fascinating No Clip documentary series offers some insight
Well worth a watch
