The Xbox section needs a bit more love... however, this is also for PlayStation 4 (and PC).    Who is interested in this game?    Both games were a lot of fun in the past... not sure how it will translate in the future.  How many of you played?   I Think Pro Skater 3 was the most played for me.

If you're looking to pre-order, below are the Amazon links.  They help this site as well.

How many of you used to play Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 and or 2?   Good memories?  Post it up!

@mastermario I agree... the rejoining needs to be a thing for Call of Duty Warzone.   I've hit a few rounds of that lately were the lag out was an issue.   It's quite frustrating.

We need to join up again at some point in the near future.  @targetrasp and I have been playing a bit here and there.  I've only seen you on once (for a short time Saturday I Think it was)

Another massive game - Microsoft Flight Simulator is 127GB large.  According to the below article, the client for Steam is only 532MB... and because downloading starts the clock on your gameplay, it could affect your steam refund.   It appears that threshold is 2 hours.  However, Steam assured it won't affect refund requests...  and you're not downloading the full 127GB on the Steam clock.

Crazy large game!   I know some members like @mastermario  used to play this. Anyone else looking to pick it up?

Thoughts. Comments. Post it up!

Man... it was a super bummer to read this. I didn't realize he was battling cancer during all the Marvel movies.  It's hard to imagine anyone else as Black Panther and I really liked this actor.

Condolences to the family...

RIP

Yeah... @mastermario ...  that sucks.   I was shocked to find that out yesterday. He was an awesome actor for Black Panther. 

This topic is a bit late... however, Fall Guys and Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered are the free PSN games available right now.

Fall Guys is a lot of fun... I'm planning to create a Topic on it soon.  Modern Warfare 2... is pretty cool too.  I assume most gamers have already been through the game.

If you play fall guys, we will have to join up sometime. 

I'm not sure how many of you like to play flight simulators.   I played quite a few in the mid to late 90s... even before that was Chuck Yeager's Air Combat (I think it was called). I used to play Microsoft Flight Simulator, many variations of Jane's games, others That were not well known, and Microsoft's Space Simulator (I don't recommend this one).  One of my favorites was the Flight Unlimited series by Looking Glass.

I've never been this dedicated though ... check it out:

Pretty crazy they made it the 16 hours. I want to check a video of the landing they mentioned.  That sounds like it could be funny. 

Thoughts, comments...  post it up!

We did repainting over the last month.  We have more to do as well... but fixed some holes and other things from previous owners.  We took the cheaper price and fixes though.

Cool stuff. Once all this clears, we will need to visit

Lol man... I'm not sure what I would do. Maybe not in this example (not necessarily talking about this mom), but many parents are ignorant to what their kids do online.  So many parents of the kids I saw have no monitoring or idea of what their kids are doing, who they are talking to, manipulating or being manipulated by.  I know a lot of people don't want to think about this. It sucks.. I get it

This is pretty crazy. Post up your thoughts and comments!

Noice, @Grindspine    how's thst going?

@retro junkie - yeah... thats nice. I've been remote working since March. I think I've filled up the tank in my car.... Probably 3 times now.   Thats a very nice thing.

I think covid will be changing how many report to work and office spaces are utilized (or lack there of) in the future.  It is with our company now.

@Grindspine - I dug into Ori.. But I haven't checked out Hollow Knight.  What is it like?

We have seen this with movies and other releases...  it's not surprising we have and are seeing this in game launches.

Good news though!  The Xbox Series X is still on track for November!  I'm Probably skipping Xbox again this generation because I've been trying to concentrate on a single system...  and it's cheaper. However, I really miss Gears of War and Halo series.

Thought, comments... post it up!

Nice!   They are expensive , but the savings are nice!

How are you enjoying the ride so far?

Sucks we can't all get together well this year.  Never-the-less.. Happy Birthday,  @Grindspine  enjoy your digital cake!

If you get the gifts of gaming, don't forget to share!

Yes it did ... all the safari are belong to you

You should be able to use all the browser though.  Dis you try clearing everything in chrome? 

Go ahead and create your Topic now lol...

@retro junkie  Wow... this is a thing?    Man.. I'm a bit out of it lol.   The Famicom Mini definitely has a unique design... it's a tad bit crazy.  That's a nice list of games too.

SO... I have to ask... How is Bumping Sumo? 

@targetrasp yeah... I still have a cab.. but I need a new board.    I really have been tempted to sell some of the pieces... but don't want to regret selling some of the stuff.

@retro junkie - I haven't broke mine out in forever... I used to play Windjammers and many games all the time on it... it was staple for years.   Since I've been studying and trying to achieve a few other objectives, I haven't been gaming as much.

@MegaDrive20XX - I know exactly what you mean... you're not alone. I didn't have those exact same problems, but I totally understand having a hard time passing up some of the deals I saw.  It was super easy to over extend and get caught up in the craziness that was the Neo Geo market back in the early 2000's.  It was an interesting time... something that I'm not sure will be experienced again.

There shouldn't be any difference... I'm not sure why there is an issue with it right now.   This is very odd... what browser are you using?   I hate to ask, have you tried to clean your browser (delete history ...etc...)?    Tried another browser?

@retro junkie you still cannot post??

@CreepinDeth how are you doing?  A week has passed... did your test turn out ok?  That really sucks.

I agree... I wish we could all come together to stop the spread - and just care for each other  It sucks not being able to just go do stuff.  No one likes wearing masks and having to do special procedures.  We do though to protect others in addition to our health.  It's all pretty crazy.. Especially not being able just go out and do stuff. 

Ok lol... we might check out Hi-score Girl.   We have almost finished 30 Rock... it's been an interesting watch.

Ooo... last Airbender and Korra are awesome.  @Grindspine

I'm thinking about Star Trek Enterprise.  It might be time @retro junkie

@Mai Valentine - what is Arrow?

I thought this article was interesting. It makes sense as well to focus on the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate or  new speculative service.  However, I wonder how that will change the price to services offered... or if there will be a decent increase in cost.

Check it out... post up your thoughts and comments.

Lol it's mini-MD.   That's awesome @MegaDrive20XX  man... 1 years old already.  Time sure flies!

Lol welcome to the new thread!   I guess it seems like a retro issue.  I kid.   It seems like we had an increase in 403 errors. I hit a few myself but from different sources

@retro junkie ok... and try again.  The host made a change as well

@retro junkie  - please try again

Hm.. What in the world... I'm going to have to look into that.

@retro junkie  - that's weird. Try logging out, log back in and testing again
