Re: Kicking The Tires On A New TV...Advice Needed

My bill last week for Cox internet was $130 (they added $10 because we barely went over the data cap). F'n BS!

I checked and we finally have fiber available from ATT.

3 days later I have ATT installed and our new bill is $65 with no data cap. ($5 off for paperless bill)

Re: Legend Bowl

I fired it up on my steam deck for the first time in a while and wow, what a difference. So smooth now and officially verified on the deck. As much as I want to support the devs, I cannot recommend the Switch version right now unless it is the only option until it is patched to fix the extreme slugg...

Re: Legend Bowl

I downloaded and played the demo on the switch and it seems very laggy when playing a full game. When I practice offense only, the game runs butter smooth, but everything slows down when adding defense. I've had it on my steam deck, and it plays similar to the steame deck. I wish the game would run ...

Re: The Beautiful Game, Fútbol, Calcio, Footie Season 23/24

I visited Snapdragon Stadium last Wednesday for the US/Panama Gold Cup semifinal and it was a blast. Only 1.5 miles from my house and getting in and out was a breeze, (thanks to my wife dropping me off and picking me up;)

Beautiful stadium and can't wait for FC San Diego in MLS.

Re: MLB The Show 23

I am really enjoying the gameplay so far. The "bat" icon with flick batting is a ton of fun and I am seeing a wide variety of hit types. The ball physics have been on point. I hit a hard grounder down the line and watched the ball launch off a bullpen like it was a bike ramp :) Looking back, I could...

Re: MLB The Show 23

I have completed two of the Negro League stories and have thoroughly enjoyed them so far. If I had this game in the 80's, 90's or early 2000's I don't think I would have ever left my room. Such a great game, and yes, a little stale at times. With quick counts and skipping half innings, I can play ga...

I played a quick game as the Tigers on my Xbox One S.

Feels similar to last year's game but still fun.

I wish I had the time/video game stamina of years past to dive in ;)

Fanatical has a solid bundle offering for steam deck verified games. I am liking my deck for the indies I can play in bite size formats as I don't have the time/patience for big AAA's anymore.

Re: So Cal People ....

I'm in San Diego and Riverside isn't too far away and traffic into SD isn't bad depending on the time of day.

Palm Springs and Big Bear are nearby.

If travelling into LA often, then UGH.

I agree. I haven't spent this much time with a shooter in years. Granted, if it wasn't on Gamepass I wouldn't be playing it, but is is damn good.

I purchased the early release on Steam last winter and had some fun with it. I haven't had time to test out its newer updates but the reviews have been strong. It reminded me of the original Joe Montana Football game from the Sega Genesis around 1990. And that is a good thing ;) The mods are suppose...

Thanks. We are really enjoying it so far. We are now to 1972 and have opened up the next class.

My youngest son and I have been taking turns each stage.

The graphics and atmosphere is sublime. Perfect game pass game.
