Does it have Battletoads?

You're God damn right it does.

Since there's a new South Park game coming out, I decided to install and play Stick of Truth from my Steam library. I spent the last couple weeks on it. It's a well-made RPG, and I think anyone who likes South Park—and especially the South Park movie, which was raunchier than the TV show—will like that game. It's definitely not for anyone who is easily offended. There's an entire sequence, for example, where you're fighting a horde of zombie Nazi aborted fetuses.

RetroPie itself doesn't have any ROMs itself, because copyright.

You get the hardware and software installed, and then you head over to your favorite ROM website and download the titles you want. Obviously, this is only legal if you own a copy of the cartridge or game in question.

That was great. It amazes me that companies have him review their games. His takedown of FFXV with Elijah Wood is my favorite. They despised that game.

I've read that around 25% of the games reviewed are essentially paid product placements. The others are just Conan playing a game. Criticism/critique is a valid 'fair use' exception to copyright. They don't need anyone's permission to review the games and use the hardware.

Another tell for this particular one is that they're misusing the gear; the Oculus safety manual (like our VR rig) expressly states you should stay seated when VR-ing.

Tales from Borderlands is one of the free games on PsPlus this month. It's really entertaining and hilarious. I never played the Borderlands games, but it's making me want to play them.

Launch of the Shuttle Dragoon, STS-004. The 4th Shuttle mission of the program.


A small explosion during SRB jettison was seen. After the hectic orbital maneuvers, sunlight reveals a broken control surface.


No reason to not complete the mission, the Cupola and Habitat are delivered to the Space Station Astraeus


Moonrise after De-orbit burn


disabling the opposite stabilizer seems to have the craft steady


As the atmosphere thickens, the attitude thrusters can no longer keep up with aero forces.


Out of control, the ship is stuck backwards, and almost out of options.


With no remaining fuel for the main engines, a powered descent is not possible, and the crew was unable to achieve a controllable glide. the parachutes for the landing brakes did them no favors either, and the ship and crew impacted with all hands lost.


STS-005 Shuttle Bahamut, with improved atmospheric stability and safer boosters, cruises back home with an improved version of the Dragoon's moonrise.

Your vehicle names are outstanding.

Not being able to finish my current chapter of the seasonal journey was driving me nuts, so I did a bit of research and saw that the Immortal King set dungeon was supposed to be so easy you could sleepwalk through it.

So I created a seasonal Barb and after 3 days or so was able to cobble together the equipment I needed.

They were right... beat it on my first try, despite not being familiar at all with the build... it was stupid simple.

Just need to complete a single conquest for the following level... which will probably be 3 level 65 gems. Currently have 4 @ 58, but I'm basically at my current max level, so gonna work on some augments to help up my damage so I can eke out those last few levels.

Going to start Prey tonight, (after the game 6 Pens win). I'm looking forward to both games. I usually like this type of video game. A scary sci-fi shooter. Hopefully both games live up to my expectations.

How is Prey? The original Prey is criminally underrated/overlooked. Great story, gameplay, setting, etc. that's made all the better by various locations having Art Bell on Coast to Coast AM taking calls about the alien invasion you're currently battling. Was extremely excited about the sequel that development hell-ed it's way into this game.

@slappybrown, did you randomly get a little tingly last night between 8-9:30 PM? Because @Juice and I hit roughly 10 posts in that hour and a half.

[Juice]

Conservative estimate. Seriously.

I updated my kids xbox one (he's not getting it until end of the month) and downloaded some games so it's ready to go for him. I created myself an account to get started and then just created one for all 3 kids online and added to my family. When they log in on the xbox, will they see all the games that I originally downloaded under my name?

I think that happens when you select "share gold on this console" or whatever it says. I can try tonight. My fiance has a profile and plays occasionally, but everything was bought under my name.

so it's something you would have to do on the console. Online, I see everyone in my family, but under "my games" they are only showing under my name.

I did the share gold on our Xbox, and added my boys profile under add family members...all of the digital games show under all ID's.

This new expansion for forza horizon 3 looks fantastic!
Must resist buying until it goes on sale...

Thanks VLB, that hot wheels does look fun. What's the deal with these Forza games. I got number 6 thinking it was the most recent, but they are adding expansion packs to 3?

[Viva la Ben]

The way games are sold now with standard,deluxe,gold editions...and separate season, and expansion passes is very confusing. Right now it's $79 on the Xbox store to buy forza horizon 3 and the hot wheels dlc.
I really like the digital versions...less fingers in the cd rom drive.
