for the xbox'ers (with gold), don't forget to grab Super Mega Baseball 2 and Streets of Rage Vintage Collection (which I had to "buy" on the website, was having issues trying to get thru console).

I think smb2 muted a few too many goofy aspects of the original but the game play and character models are improved. I'm so happy it was included with gold. I'd pay full price for it.

I'm officially lame. I just bought another cheap Windows 2-in-1 (my last one ended up with a busted screen when I didn't pack it properly travelling for work about two years ago) just so I can play SimCity and The Sims. I thought about buying something more powerful for other games but then realized that those are the only games I'm going to play anyway so I went cheap.

Ended up buying another ASUS Transformer like i had before. Only a 10" screen and not going to break any speed records but it's perfect for what I use it for, those two games and reading with the Kindle app. Now I just need to see if I can find an older version of Civilization that will run well on it and I'm all set. I don't think this will run the newest version but maybe the previous one will work for me so I am not confined to the version I have on my phone.

I just bought Civ 5 and it is installing now. There goes my next month between the three games since I haven't ever played a PC version of Civ and haven't been able to play either of the other two games in a couple of years.

Who else watched the E3 stuff so far?

I'm in on The Division 2, Cyberpunk, Battlefield V, Forza Horizons 4, and maybe Just Cause 4.

All the far-off Bethesda stuff sounds good. Elder Scrolls 6.

Starfield, which I guess is Elder Scrolls/Fallout in space. Sounds pretty damn good.

Not sure about Fallout 76. Don't think it's my cup of tea.


Oh yeah - Cyberpunk 2077 is from The Witcher developers, and sounds good.

Yes: Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, Gears 5, Halo Infinite, Last of Us 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey (Origins took this series to the next level).

Maybe: Ghost of Tsushima, Rage 2, Just Cause 4 and Crackdown 3

I really like open world/rpg games.

Hopefully Nintendo brings the thunder today.
