The last thing I would have expected on this nice Sunday afternoon. Awful news. RIP Kobe.
And now reports his daughters may have died as well. Tragic.

Re: CPU help
We're currently playing on a 24" 60 hz 1080p free sync monitor until the 32" 144 hz 1440p G sync arrives later today. But wow, I'm impressed how smoothly everything runs and responsive it feels when playing games. Titles such as Forza Horizon 4, Need For Speed Heat (a favorite of mine), Madden, Fif...

Re: Next Gen XBOX (Project Scarlett) and PlayStation 5
I feel pretty much the same way. I'm leaning towards the PS5 simply because of the inclusion of VR. I just like to have that added option. But, my console gaming has really dropped off significantly over the last year. With my son building a PC, I'm intrigued to see how gaming is on there. 95% of m...

Re: CPU help
Funny, though...after this conversation my own PC started to sh*t the bed. I've narrowed it down to a Motherboard problem, but for the first time in probably 15 years I've gone back to buy parts instead of a pre-built rig. There was a Micro Center near me here in Houston, and I don't think I'm ever...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II
For those who had their eye on it, iRacing's "soft launch" of AI cars was yesterday. It's only the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car and 7 tracks, but after toying with it for a couple of hours last night, I'm seriously impressed. Have you tried ACC? Granted not many tracks available, but a few more than 7, ...

R.I.P. Ric Ocasek
Seems like just yesterday. I was a 15 year old kid frantically calling Ticketmaster as soon as tickets went on sale in Dallas for The Cars concert. It was the Heartbeat City tour, and I was able to nab tickets for me, my sister, and her boyfriend. 3rd row, center. Great seats, an awesome view of Ric...

9-9-99, 20 years on - Dreamcast 20th
If not for the date of Dreamcast launch, I would have forgotten. It’s hard to believe that 20 years ago the Dreamcast launched in America. It is with a bit of irony that today I am on my way to Palmdale, California area for work, as exactly 20 years ago I had to go out to that area for work as well,...

Re: Wreckfest
I've had it for a few months on the pc. Very entertaining, and it certainly is a nice diversion from Sims. It really is a good balance between a smash em up and trying to place well enough to progress through the series.

I am sure the answer will be yes, but is the game worth $20? On sale at steam for the pc until Thursday. If you have an XONE and XBL Gold, it's free this month. Personally I don't like it and find it a step back vs TGC2. I don't like the swing mechanics. Every ball I hit never goes stright and when...

While I am enjoy the IndyCar series, one thing on the broadcasts just drives me batty. Why must the broadcast team always refer to a new set of tires with the word "sticker".

Re: Racing Season 2019
Best part of the race today was a win for Bottas. Hard not to give support to him as he seems like a genuinely good guy. Heartbreak award has to go to Ricciardo. But overall a snoozer of a race.
