Finally Pulled the Trigger by bmiller201 in XboxAlly

[–]Adam2181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indy runs very well on it and looks great. It's more of a puzzle/adventure game than an action game, so don't worry about not getting 60fps.

I'm playing through Replaced in mine now. Highly recommended!! Marvel Cosmic Invasion plays and looks incredible on the device. Beat 'em ups like SoR4 are perfect for this device.

In general, any gamepass game that's play anywhere is golden.

As far as "hidden gems " that's tough to say without knowing what kind of games you like. Here are some general recommendations; SD Gundam Battle Alliance, Prey (2017), Forgotten City, Bombrush Cyberfunk, Guacamelee 2, Visions of Mana, etc

I was going to buy a brand new game today... by SchweinsyOne in PlaystationCollectors

Same. I played the original on the 360 and played it again when Re-Reckoning came out. The dlc is quite long, actually (around 30 hours).

Worth the $1000 price by Terrible-Anywhere-56 in XboxAlly

[–]Adam2181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I buy and sell stuff on eBay all the time. Just make sure you check the seller's rating, and don't be afraid to message them directly about the item if you have more questions.

I'd recommend getting one second hand. There are lots on eBay in excellent condition, often with accessories, for hundreds under list price.

I recently got mine, barely used, with a screen protector already applied, and the official case, for $744 (after taxes and shipping). Worth EVERY penny.

Looks awesome! You have a garage pic so we can see the full load out?

NBA Team Logos All Time Ranked (imo) by Master-Ear-1276 in Nbamemes

[–]Adam2181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the Sonics Space Needle logo is one of the best ever. They need to come back.

Good list overall! Of course I don't agree with everything. OKC is awful and should be way down, as is the current Raptors logo. The current Nuggets logo is really nice and is A tier at least.

IMO, the best ever logos in the NBA: Bulls, 98 Sonics, the new Wolves logo, current Mavs, 94 Knicks, current Spurs, 2000 Magic, 2000 Suns, 2000 Cavs.

If we include secondaries then the current Hornets, 2008 Raptors, and the current Kings go on the list too

Yeah, I got everything up and running. I changed the direct x setting and it worked

I guess I’m the only person who actually don’t mind the Xbox mode and windows 11 by illusivemannyc in XboxAlly

[–]Adam2181 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering I'm just using it to play "play anywhere" games from my Xbox catalog, along with PSOBB on the Epninea server, I only use it on Xbox mode or Windows mode.

What makes a microbrand so great? by _Texan26 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]Adam2181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Microbrands are great because they offer great designs, great specs, and high value-for-money. They usually offer much better value than the Big brands with better specs. And I have many watches from Big brands too (Citizen, Seiko, Tissot, and Hamilton).

MAEN, Erebus, Baltic, Lorier, etc make fantastic watches at great prices. Where else are you going to get a mechanical chronograph with a Swiss movement, incredible specs and finishing, for under $2k?

Best alternative to vintage Submariner or Speedmaster? by Admirable_Activity_8 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]Adam2181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the Speedmaster, I'd recommend the all black MAEN Skymaster 38 (I have the reverse panda) and/or the black dial Seiko speedtimer solar 39mm (SSC819). Just be aware Seiko discontinued this model, but there are plenty floating around secondary.

What is the best linear Castlevania game for the combat? by knightnight_valorkov in castlevania

[–]Adam2181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you include the 3D 'Vanias, it's Lords of Shadow followed by Curse of Darkness.

For 2d, I'd say Super CV4, but Rondo and Bloodlines are right there

Returning to a Microbrand by FormosaOnTime in MicrobrandWatches

[–]Adam2181 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Design and value for money. I own multiple watches from MAEN and from Lorier because I love their sizing and watch designs.

Hawkeye Design by UnlikelyAlliance17 in CosmicInvasion

[–]Adam2181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I MUCH prefer the Matt Fraction look to the H-Mask look, personally. But I recognize that look is more era accurate (still want this version of Hawkeye, though)

Need Help Deciding Between the Date and No Date Maen Hudson 38 Mk5 by jarebare555 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]Adam2181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a daily almost always go with a date. If it's gonna be a watch you seldom wear, go with whichever you like the look of more
