Eurogamer put it perfectly: Microsoft made a great case for Game Pass, but not for their new generation of consoles.

Day 24 - Best Final Mission I'm gonna break the rules a little and combine the last two dungeons of Final Fantasy IX:

UNPOPULAR OPINION - PEOPLE MAY LIKE WHAT SOME OTHERS DON'T This is how you should've started. Social media/reddit-style The thing is, most of those games will be available on PS5 (or PC) eventually. The actually XBox Series X exclusives are not so interesting (at least to me; maybe you were talking about those). I think this showing should've been called "Game Pass Show". Game Pass is available for PC, right? It's an incredible deal, and with that stream it made me a little more interested in it, but to be honest...I'd much rather build a solid (and reasonably priced) gaming PC than get an XBox Series X.

That's quite a nifty feature. I don't like Pokémon anymore, though. So much that I wouldn't even play the old ones again I might give the A Link to the Past randomizer ago sometime in the future.

I've always been interested in playing one of these myself. But then I think: "What if I don't know these games well enough and get stuck?" and then I just scrap the idea entirely, eat chocolate and cry myself to sleep.

Yes, but I might have to cancel sometimes, because I see my friends a lot these days and Saturday nights are pretty much the nights for that

Day 23 - Licensed Video Game Loved it as a kid. Never finished it, though, because I never owned a copy.

Started playing Final Fantasy VIII. Funny how I remember almost nothing. Then again, the last time I played it was probably more than 15 years ago and I never finished the game. The draw/junction/GF/card system is pretty much perfect for me. I'm gonna break the shit out of this one

For the Switch. Got $10 eShop credit for 7€ so it was a no-brainer. Haven't played this in probably more than 15 years...

That was...weird? Nothing that would make me get a Series X. If anything this showing only made me a little more interested in building a solid PC...

What actual exclusives for their new console have been shown so far? It's really cool to see trailers for games that will eventually land on the PS5, too

Has the thing started already? Did I miss something?

Usually I can make Friday afternoon and Saturday during the day. Depending on what is planned for the weekend I have some more time.

Had a football match last night and it was terrible. We played horribly for the first half, but that wasn't the biggest problem. The opposing team was just unfair, vulgar and unnecessarily aggressive. I have nothing against an aggressive play style. Hell, sometimes I do it because I got no other choice. But yesterday...half of the opposing team just tackled without regards for health. That's not fun. Especially since this is just a hobby league...and it was a friendly match. We won in the end (with a classic 8:6) but once we equalized it got worse...we were close to just leaving the pitch. Needless to say, we will never again organize a friendly against them.

Great Calling @Glen-i to set something up. You offered it and have the most experience with this so...I'M GONNA BE LAZY With only 4 people (for now), I'd be up for something like: Play only one game per week Play best of 3 (5, 7, 9, whatever) Assign points based on the result rinse, repeat Just as a basis. Obviously, this can be changed depending on whether we're playing 2-player or 4-player games and how much time each and every one of us has

Awesome That means we're currently at three people interested: @viceview51 @Glen-i and me (maybe @S.C.G, you thanked my post so....is that a yes? ) With four, I'd say that a tourney could be held

Just to clarify, you'd be willing to buy the Switch game?

Yup, impressive indeed. Shame the game falls off a cliff once...

Day 22 - Favourite Playable Character This is gonna be a weird one My Pro Club Player in Fifa 20. No, this is not because IT'S ME, I'M THE BEST. It's because I play football in real life and that kind of made the Pro Club mode even more enjoyable. A couple of friends and I had a team and we regularly met online to just play some football It's always amazing when you do something great and everybody just loses it or when you fuck up and everyone curses you You get rated at the end of a match, get some skill points to assign, you grow as a player. It's a great mode and probably the only reason why I will keep coming back to Fifa even though I hate everything the game has become.

Happy to hear because it means I actually understand a fair bit of the game, sad to hear because it sucks that the version here plays out like this.

Slowly wrapping my head around it. Still not sure why the game sometimes says that I need specific tiles but when they show up nothing happens. Maybe it's because I don't actually have a Yaku but the game still thinks I would win with those needed tiles?

Man, I'm trying to get into Riichi Mahjong but playing online is a tad too quick for my taste. The time you get for your turn is way too low, and adding ten seconds 3 times per round isn't really helping. For now I'll just use a flash game in my browser to play against the AI

Yeah, I used one of those but found it to be quite uncomfortable. I did buy a running backpack recently and I'll try putting my phone in there and hope that the earphone cable is long enough. I really should get a pair of Bluetooth earphones...

Ohhhh boy, I grossly underestimated what these things might cost...well, nothing I can afford these days. Carrying my phone in hand will have to suffice.

Speaking of, I'm looking for a cheap one. Anybody here got some recommendations?
