    In RDR2 I arrived in camp with my horse, forgot to hitch it, got told by some lady horses in camps are not allowed, then later it turned out my horse was gone. Along with my sweet double barrelled shotgun.

    The load times in AC Odyssey are awful and nearly ruining the game for me.

    Gone gone? I got yelled at all the time and my horse would hitch itself.

    Hey Duke, sounds like Nick Valentine made off with Morris’ horse.

    Yeah, and your guns never really go away. When you acquire a new one, it will be available in your horse's saddle for the rest of the game.

    I think the only thing that goes away are pelts (non-Legendary) if you die.

    Fuck. Ubisoft just signed a deal with Epic on launching games on their new store. They are ditching steam for Division 2. Ugh

    Wait, didn't Ubisoft already have their own dedicated client? Or am I confusing them with another company?

    I coulda sworn they were the ones who started "Origins" or whatever... like, you MUST sign up for our shitty service to download the game / play online.

    uPlay. And yes. Except no one goes to uPlay to buy their games, so they use other distribution systems as well. What makes steam so great is their player base, ability to upload videos, screenshots, post reviews, chat rooms, achievements, all in one cilent.

    So is Uplay dead or are they still propping up its corpse? Uplay is the worst gaming client I've dealt with, poorly designed and extremely buggy and unreliable.

    @Irish - Origin is EA's client.

    Oh it exists. It's better in recent months. But again, all my friends are on steam. Not uPlay. Not Origin. Not Bethesda. Not Battlenet, Not Epic.

    Loved "Into the Breach" lately.

    It's mecs vs kaijus. Save the world from alien invasion. Each level is maybe 10-15 minutes. Full playthrough 2-3 hours. You'll lose games more often than you'll win. There are a ton of different pilots and mecs to unlock, each with a different playstyle.

    If you dig X-Com style strategy that will beat your ass across 3 difficulty levels, give it a try. Highly recommended.

    It won tons of GOTY awards.

    But it wasn’t until your description that I became interested!

    Will check it out.

    Replaying Halo: Reach after nearly a decade has been a delight, and cements it as having perhaps the best campaign in the series, from a gameplay standpoint.

    It's half way between X-Com and a good puzzle game. Positioning matters. How and when you move matters. You gotta spend time thinking through your turn to meet mission goals and avoid damage to your cities.

    But you also get to punch giant bugs and light them on fire with a flamethrower. (Another favorite: a mech that can leap across the map and smash enemies as he lands, Incredible Hulk style.)

    Not to oversell it but I think the game is calling you out --- the maps are randomized but more than once I've fought in a zone called "The Scar Territory."

    Grabbed the N64 from my parents' house during a visit home; apparently we still had Mario 64, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Star Fox 64, and Banjo-Kazooie gathering dust in a rubber tub in the basement.

    And excited now because my local re-seller has Wipeout 64 for $8, Wave Race for $5, 1080 Snowboarding for $8...

    This may be a problem.

    Man, 1080 Snowboarding was the freakin’ bee’s knees.

    I still remember unlocking the gold (?) boarder and feeling like a million bucks.

    I'm still holding out that an N64 classic is in the works.

    Isn't there some huge licensing issue?

    Bad news for that Star Wars game that Visceral games was working on before it was shuttered by EA.
