I’m away from my gaming PC at the moment and only have a laptop to fall back on. That said two games I like so far are Torchlight 2 (the first one was good also) and Globesweeper.

Ah! fair enough, I had kind of forgotten the ‘underrated’ criteria of your list ;)

I personally loved that game. It had that Arkham Knight style combat but if it wasn’t branded Mad Max it would have felt like a spiritual successor to Twisted Metal.

It doesn’t get mentioned much because the overall story tends to overshadow it, but one of my favourite aspects was the nature of the melee kills. They start off quick and efficient, but by the end of the game they’re brutal curb stomps, and accompanied by comments like “just f***ing DIE!” from Walker. The progression… Read more

Space Marine is great fun. Especially the co-op mode, if you can get some like-minded friends together.

Will throw my hat in on Sleeping Dogs as well. Still a solid looking game, well acted and engaging story, and the fighting system is slightly deeper than most for this genre.

Mad Max.
I spent time in this game a few years ago during the difficult period after a layoff and it helped me work through some things. Read more

That Spec Ops is super under-rated. My sons school used that in their Media/Gaming class and everyone was amazed at its flow. The ethical and moral focal points were the main reason why they found it intriguing. It’s definitely not for everyone especially if they’re thinking they’re getting COD xxx : Guns and more.… Read more

Picked a pair up before Christmas as Costco for 85 bucks. I’m a big fan. They are pretty awesome for consuming media but are definitely not a replacement for studio monitors (if someone actually needs flat sound for music production).

FWIW, I set it up (got it on Xmas, technically) and after a lot of futzing with the settings, especially on the Xbone (there was massive latency until I fiddled enough), I got it working.
While trying to get rid of the latency, I had to A/B a lot with the TV speakers and omg, what a difference. Yeah, I don’t know if… Read more

Though we have a proper receiver and surround setup in the living room, in the bedroom we just have the Vizio 2.0 Soundbar. I was blown away by how good it sounds considering the size and price.

I’ve always had a cheap soundbar (~$100) and that was a huge improvement over the TV speakers. The Studio Advance by Definitive Technology soundbar is my current and long-term setup. Its expensive, but holy shit was it worth it.

Hmm, how did you come to this conclusion? I remember seeing a difference between the SDR and HDR versions when I compared them, and Reference Home Theater did their own analysis on Spider-Verse and found that both brightness and color were outside SDR/Rec.709 spec throughout the movie. John Archer said the same. If… Read more

Also extremely annoying is that they list the 4K version as a different listing when it is available as opposed to a playback option. I get that they may want to charge more for the 4K version, but every other place that I have rented 4K movies from seems to have figured out how to have one page with options for… Read more

Just putting this out there. If you want your 4k TV to SCREAM WITH PLEASURE, go for Atomic Blonde. You will not be disappointed. On the other hand, I was actually disappointed with The Matrix transfer.

Rogue One is definitely the highest quality (picture, sound) Star Wars release in 4K.

General studio agreements. Amazon often gets them last in 4K. One day it may pop in.

I think if you own an Xbox, GamePass is a fantastic deal. Is it a good enough deal to get people to switch from a non-Microsoft platform? I doubt it.
For me, it was a no-brainer. I was already an Xbox guy (I’ve owned Playstations, but the friends I do the most gaming with have always been on Xbox, so it’s always been… Read more

Yep, and here I go again 2 times in one thread, GeForce now has Epic’s support so you can play all those free games on GeForce now. Also GFN is cheaper than XBOX game pass and you have access to your whole Steam Library locally (you can try over distance but YMMV I tried to play Death’s Gambit from my work and it was… Read more

You forgot to add that XCloud is free with Game Pass Ultimate. I use that all the time at wo...err, the place I am at when I am not at home. You have to have a healthy connection to the internet and an android phone, but I was kicking ass in HALO:CE earlier this week between customers.
