    @Serebii I assume I'll be seeing you post this in the Purchases thread soon?

    Had the value and survey done. My friend was right and they are like full obdy scans and you see every flaw with the house and panic sets in.

     

    However, the mortgage people didn't inform the surveyor that it was underpinned so they have to send him in again -_- Just when I thought everything would go smoothly.

     

    The sellers want to finalise around end of October, but if this doesn't happen fast...

    I thought it struck a nice balance between Nu-Trek and classic Trek myself.  Definitely reckon it has potential.

     

    With this series being focused on the Klingon War, I'd expect it to be very action heavy.

    Yeah. I just hope they keep the balance :)

    Starfox 2

    Zelda BotW DLC

    Super Mario Odyssey

    Sonic Forces

    Rocket League

    Pokémon Ultra Sun

    Pokémon Ultra Moon

    Lady Layton probably at Christmas, but what with house stuff, I imagine I'll have boring functional presents this year

     

    Unsure about Xenoblade though. I only got into Xenoblade Chronicles due to its sci-fi leaning.

    I never got that far. I dropped it at the first season. It's the only Trek series I never watched all the way through.

    Season 1 wasn't bad, but had issues.

    Season 2 got a bit better but had a lot of crap in the middle.

    Season 3 was great, but was clearly a representation of post 9/11 American TV.

    Season 4 had a new showrunner and was pure unadulterated Star Trek with very little of the time travel stuff.

     

    Give it a go again. Start with Season 2 Episode 26 and move onwards. Though really I'd say watch it all, but if Season 1 made you drop, much of Season 2 wouldn't give you much confidence but there is some gold in there.

    I've still not watched TOS all the way through. Just can't get into it, not sure why.

    And I'm also loving all the Voyager love. I'm also looking forward to Discovery!

    Many things about TOS just don't hold up these days. Most of TNG holds up even 30 years later but TOS is majorly dated

    I know you can really use both if you wish (normally for emphasising the individuals that make up the plural) but Microsoft has.  Just one of those things that gets under my skin.  Aaaaanyway.

    And for what its worth, I can't see MS leaving the landscape anytime soon and I hope they don't.  They bring some nice variation to the table.  Not all of it successful, but hats off for trying.

    What variation do they bring though? The PS4 and Xbox One are pretty homogeneous. Microsoft's first party offerings have been fewer and further between now too. There is pretty much no reason to own both a PS4 and an Xbox One, and that sucks.

     

    At the start of the generation, I was hoping all offerings had something unique to them to make them worth it, but Microsoft quickly changed the XBO to be more standard.

    MS are not leaving the console business.  How many years now have people said it's been a huge money drain and they will exit the business.

    Yeah and it's not getting better. Microsoft have already begun the process of shifting their software to PC and the Xbox One is essentially a mini PC. It's the future.

    PS2 was successful, Sony got arrogant and f-ed the successor, before turning things around with the PS4

    Wii was successful, Nintendo got arrogant and f-ed the successor, before turning things around with the Switch

    360 was successful, Microsoft got arrogant and is (sort of) f-ing up the successor, and I don't see the Xbox One X doing much to change things.

    Xbox One X isn't a successor though.

     

    I honestly don't see Microsoft continuing with dedicated consoles. They've always been fighting an uphill battle with heads of Microsoft to prove Xbox's worth. It has been a huge money drain and I don't think they've even made back what they lost in the first 5 or so years of Xbox. Having Microsoft's name out there was probably able to convince the heads that it's good publicity for the Microsoft name, but now the Xbox One isn't doing well at all then that's not the case either.

     

    I can see Microsoft dropping out, pushing their games to Windows 10 (as they're already doing) and using the Xbox name for prebuilt PCs akin to Steam boxes in the future.

    perhaps, but I'm not convinced I would get the most out of my switch if I didn't!!

    Pragmatically though, my Wii U is covering most of my gaming needs right now. If I see a great deal for a switch I may get one for my wife though :D
    speaking of which... is it possible to have 2 accounts linked to a single switch console?

    Yes it is :)
