I'm playing Jet Set Radio Future for the first time, and I don't know what people are thinking believing this is superior to Jet Set Radio.

The level design is confusing, constantly pressing start to find graffiti markers is annoying, graffiti dumbed down to just pressing the right trigger is dumb, grinding is too easy, wall riding is rare, and the soundtrack is far inferior.

I never got this one. Reading this soothes my soul.

Well, I started Portal on a whim and completed it in one sitting.

I was always afraid that it would be confusing as the videos showed people zooming about. Jumping through endless portals.

It was pretty easy overall with a couple of exceptions. Looks pretty great for such an old game. Wouldn't mind a good HL2 port.

Was suprised at all the praise for Portal, it's good, but feels more like an extended demo, given its length and relative simplicity.

Looking forward to the second game though.

Portal 2 took everything from the original and expanded it into a much longer, more challenging game with more characters and story.

Now I want to play Portal 2.

Portal 2 made me feel stupid like no other game I've ever played. I hate it.

That's how I feel about Civilization 6. I have a love/hate relationship with it.

Sounds good.

No humans that I can remember. Just robots.

Do you get any weapons?

This version has gyro aiming BTW and it's a locked 60 fps too.

I haven't played a gyro fps since Crysis 3.

I bought a lot but I've avoided playing them so far.

Still avoiding playing dual analogue shooters.

My vacation request was approved. I get off all of next week for Thanksgiving. Use three vacation days, and get 9 days off? Deal. Morning hiking with my dog then gaming the rest of the day. Can't wait. Grinning

I was actually able to plan a quick trip to New York for us on Christmas day. We've always wanted to see NYC during Christmas time.

I agree. Everyone deserves a Kit Kat bar.

Doesn't really do anything for me. I've got to admit that the ability to play my xbox on my phone, hundreds of miles from home, is pretty cool.

I’ll probably just stick to playing my games on a standard console system myself but giving people multiple options as to how they can play their games is great.

I'm more interested in the cat box. Nyaa

Are there Xbox apps on smart TVs now? I don't have my smart TV connected to the Internet.

I expect the "biggest technological leap in console history" will just be people streaming Xbox games from high powered servers from the cloud. Not a direction I want gaming to go but I'm old.
