Just in time for me to get finished with Odyssey and jump into all of the DLC.

Also Diablo 2? Shouldn't it be Diablo 4? Or is Blizzard going back in time to when they weren't being hassled with massive lawsuits. Something to consider before you give them your money (though easy for me to say I don't like Diablo that much).

Yeah they remastered it graphically added some quality of life improvements and for the first time are bringing Diablo 2 to Consoles...

Diablo 4 is still coming.  (so is immortals  lol)    

I already purchased it..  I dont really care about the work politics and happenings im not gonna withhold my money cause i dont like a CEO or employees are unhappy. They have to work that out themselves.... Ill withhold my money if i dont like something the game is doing like Pay to Win loot boxes and other shady mechanics..   Like i dont like these Card Systems for upgrades very much so probly will wait on Back for Blood until its deeply discounted.

Blizzard has never done me wrong.    But the last game i bought from them was Diablo 3 lol

Such a good game, great for just chilling.  I used it last year to fly through one of the hurricanes that was in the gulf.  It was surreal.

And top gun expansion i think is coming a little later this year. And then helicopters next year



On a funny note i think i have friends that are interested in Lawn Mowing Simulator... I told them for 5 dollars id let them mow my grass

Oh best buy is selling Cyberpunk today for 10$ with steelbook... Which is probly a fair price for the game i wouldnt spend much more than that.

Never played Quake, hope it has an interesting Trophy list.

its cross platfrom and on the switch  not sure what all platforms cross but im willing to run thru some of it coop or play multi some time...

Most the achivements/trophys look to be just beating each episode/expansion     a few multi stuff which there is bots available and    a a few nightmare difficulty achievements.    (many are single player)


plays great.. And they included Quake 64 as a free download with it. ID does HD ports right!!!!

Still playing Odyssey on the final DLC, but I spent a day transferring data and downloading the game on my Ps5 digital I picked up this week. Loading screens went from like 2+ minutes to 15 seocnds.

I played through Cyberpunk when it was all nice and broken. It's a fantastic game that was really just plagued by too much ambition and a bunch of asshole execs pushing it out the door.

I plan to give it a go since I have a series X now.  Got it for Christmas and haven't broken the plastic.  lol
