Never had problems out of them
Have to give a shout out to ALvarado52 for the preview program invite once again. Lots of cool shit they have implemented so far. They also patched the "unceremoniously booting" of users for updates. Playing Mass Effect last night felt awesome |

Late Night News Edition:
Doubt anyone here would get fooled but worth a small warning regarding WWE 2k15 and people sending messages to 2K Games for help.
2K Games is currently having problems with the servers for WWE 2k15 and as a result scammers have been using it as an excuse to start phishing for as many accounts as possible. At least one Twitter account so far has been revealed to be a fraud (https://twitter.com/2KSupport_17). 2K Games have been implying the problem is not on their end even though evidence points the other way. Also their quick fix is to just restart the console/game and hope the problem went away. |

Nah, think they got the go ahead since it's known as a concept, but it's not really even been said if the NX version will be like the 3DS version (AKA handheld) or like the console version, or some sort of weird clone device like the rumours that say it's a portable and a home console.

I'm pretty sure the covered the boss situations the second Mankind Divided got announced. Kill 'em, subdue 'em, go around 'em.
Hope those boss battles are done in house instead of being farmed out to another developer. |

I would most likely get a FFXII remaster. The gambit system was really fun and well thought out. You had to do some serious tinkering with that thing to beat Yiazmat.
