I'm on my third Gigabyte in 8 years. I only had one crap out on me, and that was only because I had it running during a thunderstorm and my surge protector wasn't enough to save it. But besides that I've never had any issues at all with my cards.

This whole thing was really put into perspective for me when I looked up the price of the card I bought for my PC 2 years ago for $280 (and came with rose of the tomb raider). It's $899 today for the same thing. Insane

It would be cool to have a news board for upcoming games, leaks, rumors, etc. especially when things like e3 and blizzcon roll around.

That's pretty awesome. If you've never listened to him much, FamilyJules does a lot of video game covers, I used to listen to his kingdom hearts track a lot.

They aren't free like on Xbox?  What do you mean?

I'm definitely not ok with Paying for online... but it doesn't seem like we have much of a choice anymore.  So far, the Playstation 4 has been a pretty good console.  It started off a bit slow but is now gaining steam in the titles offered.

I didn't like having to pay for online at first, but since using it I don't mind anymore. I've got several $40 games out of the monthly free games and in general the service is better. I remember when I bought my PS3 psn went down the day after I bought it and was down for a month. My only game at the time was Black Ops. I played through the story so many times that month 😂. But I can't think of a time my psn has been down on ps4 for more than a couple hours max.

They aren't free like on Xbox?  What do you mean?

Nope, there are strings attached.

• They are free as long as you're still subscribed to PS+. If you stop subscribing you no longer have access to them.
  
• If you no longer are subscribed to PS+ and decide you want to buy the game that you already received for "free" you're out of luck. You can no longer buy it because it will show up as purchased already

I'm pretty sure there's a couple work around for this, I know if you have a game "purchased" in your library, you can still install it from a disc separately than the digital version. I think there's a way to make the digital games purchasable again, but I can't remember how it's done.


I have 2 PS4s, one of the first Destiny edition white ps4s and a black ps4 Pro. I also have the PSVR which has become a huge part of my PlayStation gaming experience. (Once I got over the nauseousness)I don't think I've turned on my xbone in 7 or 8 months 😂

I'm not sure if this runs in same Anime Bloodline as you mention, but I am a big fan of Avatar the Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra.  Those were just really well done... and if you haven't watched both series all the way through, you should do that.  Great story lines...

I watched the last air bender all the way through back in the day when it was on Nick. I never got around to legend of korra, but it's on my list to watch.

Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Code Geass, Death Note, Boruto, One Piece, Inuyasha, Robotech, Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop, and Dragon Ball / Gundam anything are all favorites of mine and completely safe bets.

Between Crunchyroll, Netflix, and amazon prime you should be able to find some nice anime for a long time. Crunchyroll won't cost anything if you're ok waiting a week for some of the currently airing series and watching commercials. there's a paid option to skip that. The other two are obviously subscription services but have a fair amount.

I'd always made fun of kids who watched anime but a childhood friend moved back to town about 15 years ago and he convinced me to watch cowboy bebop. After that I plowed through the bigger ones and am always looking for that next series. 

I've watched through most of inuyasha, I enjoyed it for the most part. I have Netflix and amazon prime, as well as Hulu. I didn't know crunchy roll had a free version, I'll have to check that out

Valve doesn't do third games for some reason lol.

But forreal, I'd love to get a 4 person group to play sometime on the weekend(s)

I've enjoyed mine, for the most part. I was on the fence about getting one, and then a friend got me one for my birthday a couple years ago. It definitely has a learning curve, and certainly isn't the best option for certain games, but the sheer amount of customization you can do with it is pretty spectacular.
Through browsing the user uploaded configurations, I was able to find an easy to use WoW setup for it, and while it is certainly not the best way to play WoW, it is nice to be able to play from the comfort of my bed via steamlink if I want to knock out dailys or something

Official general anime thread! What're you watching, what do you recommend, and what are you looking forward to?

(Remember to be sensitive about spoilers within this thread.)

I've been slowly trying to get into more anime here lately for the first time in my life, and I've really fallen in love with Fullmetal Alchemist. I know I'm wayyyy late to the party, but I've tboroughly enjoyed both versions and even the live action movie was bearable to watch lol

Woah, this is a blast from the past. What's everyone up to nowadays?
