    PC Gamers: Are You Planning on Upgrading your SSD's/HDDs?

    in PC Discussion on 20 May 2020

    I highly doubt that developers would alienate a large portion of their potential audience. Many people are still using regular HDDs or possibly a small SATA SSD to go along with it. I have GEN3.0 nvme drives in both my desktop and my gaming laptop. Desktop (3900X/X570 Aorus Master) has a 1TB Samsung 960 Pro and 960GB Corsair MP510 and my 15" Razer Blade Advanced also has a 1TB 960 Pro. My X570...

    Famitsu Sales: Week 13, 2020 (Mar 23 - Mar 29)

    in Sales Discussion on 02 April 2020

    I wonder how well it will sell next week. I only checked out two local places, but both were sold out of Switches and Lites. Usually I see the Lite in stock, but the regular Switch sold out. In this case both were out. AC was also sold out (see pic) at both of those places. First place I went to was on Sunday (3/29) and then the other place on...

It was over at halftime when the Houston Oilers were playing the Bills in the playoffs and leading 28-3 and then went up 35-3 early in the 3rd.

    What Are Your Best Video Game Bargain Finds?

    in Gaming Discussion on 04 February 2018

    I found the whole NEC Supergrafx (only) game library (5 games!) at a used store for 100 yen each (just under a $1 USD each). Hucard games only (no box/manual), but still nice. Sold 1941 for about $200, Aldynes for just under $100, and sold Daimakaimura (Ghouls’n Ghosts]) for just under $50. Included the other two common/cheaper games with my Supergrafx system when I sold it off. I...

    Xbox One X Pre-Orders Sold Out at Major Japanese Retailers; No Day One in-Store Availability Planned

    in Microsoft Discussion on 06 November 2017

    Well online pre-orders sold out very quickly. I wasn't able to get a pre-order in after they opened up. I'm guessing that the allocation for JP isn't that high. Since I wasn't able to pre-order one, I'm probably just going to hold off on it for awhile and stick with my standard X1S for now. Although I did pick up that custom Minecraft X1S for my gf. I'm actually surprised they're releasing...

I was just reading about one on ARS and somebody in the comments mentioned GAF imploding because of the same thing. With the moderators gone, there is probably no way it recovers. ...

    Wow, great feature! I still have my 360 hooked up, but I'd rather just play everything on my X1 if I can. Plus the extra usable X1 only features (screenshot, etc.) are a nice bonus. Looking forward to trying it out.  I may pick up another X1 as well for my gf. She is still playing games on her 360 and the lack of BC was one thing that kept her from wanting to get an X1 and having 2 consoles...
