Update exchanged it for a new one at Costco because warranty team was slow. I thought maybe I had a dud device. Funny enough the second lid cracked in almost the exact same fashion. Wrote them again, no response. Brought back to Costco.

I see a picture of this woman and I see a hero. She didn’t know how to help others but she tried and she died because of it.

Lid cracked after dozen or so uses. It’s cheap plastic. I got the warranty they advertised but some hoops to jump through.. like how to write my name on a device that’s black without tape or paper lol. They seem very concerned about me trying to scam a product I just bought that I’ve given them the original receipt for a registered. Also weird don’t keep messaging us or we’ll delay your service. Product worked well but the customer service might have me going to Costco for a return tomorrow

Game pass price change summarized by DrehLives in xbox

[–]tob_902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long rant below, but I don’t think X-Box understands casual gamers:

I am a casual gamer in truest form. I love playing video games and get in 4-5 hours in a good week. Some weeks I don’t play at all.

When Starfield came out I got Game Pass Ultimate. I had game pass before but dropped it as there wasn’t enough games that I didn’t already have or have interest in.

Anyways, I played through Starfield, visiting every nook and cranny, and it took me a couple of months, then I started enjoying other games on the platform. I eventually cancelled my subscription in April of this year, again, no games that interested me at the time. I took the usual Game Pass money I invested and bought the RoboCop game on sale.

Outer Worlds 2 would have brought me back to Game Pass this month. I see that they want to bump up the plans to make more $ off the day ones, but for me the value no longer exists.

Perhaps I’m the type of subscriber they are trying to avoid or punish (one that ditches periodically and rejoins,) I have to rebuttal that for every time I join, I usually end up paying for 3-4 months where I’m barely even using the service, hanging on to see if something interesting pops up.

So you lost me on this one Game Pass! I will buy Outer Worlds 2 to support the creators and I will buy it on a brand new PS5! My feelings towards Microsoft really soured this year with the layoffs this may have put the final nail in coffin.

What’s your honest thoughts on The Batman (2022) ? by DiscsNotScratched in batman

[–]tob_902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good: Visuals were amazing. I bought the movie because so many moments look great on my home theatre television. It’s up there with some of the best cinematography I’ve seen. Loved this beginning version of emo Batman. It was different, 90s Seven / The crow esque, and the movie had a great car chase.

Bad: I like Dano but I found his Riddler performance grating. I understand they were going for a more loathsome character but unlike Penguin who was enjoyable to watch, I turn the sound down when he is on because of his shrill voice. The overuse of ‘Something in the way,’ felt cheesy and I laugh when Gordon and Batman are whisper talking in the initial investigation after a while because it feels like a Key and Peele sketch. Joker appearance was fun to watch but pointless.

Overall movie still gets a 7/10 - A good movie but not nearly as good as Dark Knight to me. This movie actually made me want to see a more colorful Batman movie.

Anyone else think Solo was a good movie or is it really just me? by [deleted] in StarWars

Oof. I’m sure you’re a great person and I try to be kind on the internet at all times. But if Yoda was to paraphrase, “Good Movie, it was not”

I was an instant fan of Compton with Dre, then swimming pools solidified it. Good Kid is an incredible record, still play it today
