Not sure of your age but let me give you a back in my day moment if you will.

 

Well back in my day games still cost the same they do today $50-60 and more then 50% of them were broken piece of crap that stayed broken because of no means of deploying a patch, be happy that today you get a 12gb patch fixing game breaking bugs and adding content because none of that existed previous to the ps3/x360.

 

Which is why I wait 6-12 months for it to be >$20 and for whatever fixes they plan to put out. Also hope that they allow modding since people will fix the problems the makers are too lazy to do. Never really had too many problems when I used consoles. The only one I can remember offhand was a mission bug with the original borderlands but that was fixable by "hacking" your game save on your computer and then putting it back on the console.

 

I miss "the old days" before the internet got on consoles because it required you to go to your friend's house when you wanted to game and they didn't purposefully release unfinished games and then charge you as much as the game was to begin with to get a finished product.

Haha I turned 30 last month. I've been playing games on and off my whole life, including all the PS generations. I know the updates are great and games are better than ever but I don't really remember any faults with games back as a kid either.

I remember renting games for the PS1 before I got the save card thingie. I'd leave the ps1 on for days because I couldn't save. Power out tages and someone turning the thing off really sucked :(

Well despite so-so reviews I ordered Drive Club today. Work sent me a $50 gift card so I figure if the game sucks it's not my money. :lol:

Wow, no critic review of The Crew, but the user reviews make it obvious why the embargo is so late.

 

Most of the meta critic user reviews say the graphics are horrible, worse than last gen even.

Yea Ubisoft is going down quick. I know they are the new company to hate on. EA was last year. But this 12 hr after release embargo crap just shows that not even they have faith in their own product

I picked up the Crew for my X1. I wouldn't say the graphics are horrible, but they could be better.

The Crew looks better than Drive Club. It was essentially free for me since I got a gift card but I'm not thrilled with it. Gameplay is ok and graphics seem good but you have to do online team play to unlock most cars. Kinda sucks.

Started playing COD: AW today. Pretty badass. I was a bit apprehensive at first (before playing) because I thought the whole futuristic take on military gear would be lame/too scifi-ish but it really isn't for the most part.

I'm well past that. I finished the mission where you operate the drone around the big glass building just as I got the low controller battery warning. I liked Ghosts a lot, not sure why it got poor reviews from some.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Aimatdeer · Posted

      2024 l8t . Ac has never felt really cold even new. But lately it seems a little warmer. When it gets in the upper 80s and a little more humid it just does not keep up. And sometimes at idle it gets warm. My wife's 2008 envoy is better. My son's 2016 is colder. I have an apointment for a third try Monday the 29th at a third dealer to try and get cold ac before my warranty is out. The first two told me something about so many degrees under ambient temp blah blah blah seemed like they didn't want to mess with me. This was set at low. Max air fan speed high. 87 degrees and a little humid.   .

      OCI, not when but why?

      It isn’t all that bad in the world with purchasing power versus quality. My first car had just basic equipment. My oil choice was conventional oil. The life expectancy was around 100K miles. During that time you could expect to change all the accessories. Today with inflation you can buy the equivalent. It comes fully loaded with 4 doors. The life expectancy passes 100K miles replacing no accessories. If reaching that milestone is your goal you simply follow the recommended service intervals. If you want more miles simply do more maintenance. When in doubt you can check the internet or YouTube for information. The selling of any product hasn’t changed since the beginning of time. The power of the buyer has. The price of the product hasn’t changed much with inflation. The buying public wants more. Competition and the buying public has put the sellers in a box. The greed is on both sides. You can still get more for less. You just have to do with less. That used to be popular. The buying public has changed . It’s the sellers that are trying to keep up. As Grumpy tries to inform the readers in this case with maintenance. If you want more. More effort is required. That information wasn’t available this easily just a few years ago. I believe the public has more power. Getting information is easier.

      2023 DRW Wheel Liners

      By SFC Retired · Posted

      Gentlemen, I'm new to this forum. My question is, I thought I have read somewhere that the rear wheel liners for 2024- 2026 GMC Sierra HD3500 DRW can/will fit the 2023. I can't seem to find that information again and wondering if anybody has any knowledge if these will work or not with the 2023? Part# is 84892542. Thank you for any information. The GMC parts counter wasn't able to give my any definitive answer?

      Spacers aren’t safe anyway, so you’re better off just buying something else.

      OEM Trailer Hitch Receiver - Impact tightened by shop

      Its because they have thread locking compound on them. I would bet money that they are actually reusable and not a literal TTY bolt because GM and most other OEMs don't trust techs and the end-user to apply thread locker properly in the same way they don't trust anyone to solder properly (and instead instructing crimps everywhere). Torque To Angle =/ Torque To Yield.   If you think dealerships or any technician replaces every 'discard' bolt in every procedure, I have a bridge to sell you.
