XBOX Live (gold) has Gears of War 1-3 & Judgement (on demand) on sale for about $5.00 each.
Dungeons 3 is a pretty good RTS along the resource gathering, tech tree building style (think starcraft or age of empires style game). Lot of humor in it too. I mean one of my nagas (snake people) was named Kiimkar'dashian and one of my imps was jayzee... And I got to toss them both into the sacrificial altar!

Fuck you PUBG, first solo chicken dinner.
I cost @Ves most likely 2 wins the other day. In both rounds I held m1, started the spray pattern of the weapon with the mouse, and heard a singular "pew". Single shot. We ded. When I get home I will post a screenshot of my best solo I had the other day. Chicken dinner solo w/ 13 kills. Groza w/ suppressor melts.
I finally got PUGB for XB1. I completely suck at this game.

We all do, that's why you need a squad to squad with.

Bought a PS4 and I have to say that I am really impressed with these next gen consoles. Just started playing Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age, the graphics and redone orchestral soundtrack are amazing.

Eh, console gaming is actually a bit easier than the PC gaming setup. I actually have a decent PC for gaming, but all the tweaks and other shenanigans (authentication, oracle servers, steam passwords) that I had to do in order to play my games was annoying as hell. The plug and play aspect of consoles is easier and way cheaper for good enough gaming.
I don't do multiplayer either, so it's nice to not have to connect to the internet to play or verify my games via some online server. Have fun buying overpriced intel chipsets and graphics cards thanks to competition from crypto currency miners.
Pricing pitfalls with building a PC
It's a terrible time to buy a graphics card
Here’s how, and why, the Spectre and Meltdown patches will hurt performance

No.
The features above have been available to PC users for years. Long before they were part of a top of the line console now. If you have to do tweaks and other shenanigans to play PC games then something isn't set up correctly. 2-factor authentication is just smart. I don't know what Oracle servers you have to mess with to play lol. Steam has one password. PC offers better gaming all around. Also, the statement that you don't have to connect to the internet to play games on a console is not accurate. Older games that was true. Now, with DRM and other measures implemented by the studios, that is not the case with most top-tier games. Also, none of the PC gear I buy is overpriced. If you take the time and do the research you can get better deals and performance than the console counterparts. With more longevity than consoles as well since you can upgrade components without having to buy a new system. Your PC is a long-term investment. That's why a good system costs more than a console. In essence, it takes some work and responsibility on the part of the owner, but the return on your investment is much better.
Play what ya like and enjoy it, but there is zero possible logical argument that a console is better than a PC. Excuse me, I have a Steam sale to peruse.

That is alot of work to play a game. 300 bucks for a brand new console that's going to last a few years and doesn't require futzing around with gear and tech just seems easier. As for fps, hd, and everything else, while neat, I just don't see the big draw.No.

Granted I just started, but I have yet to run into anything with DRM that requires an internet connection. Also, used games for a fraction of the price. Don't have to wait for steam sales.
I kept forgetting my password for the Oracle servers on Mass Effect Andromeda. Same for Steam. It's a pain.
At this point I'm a content console peasant, gaming is easier and my eyes can't tell the difference anymore.
So many different games so little time. I have a PS4 and a PS4 Pro and a PS3. A Xbox one and a Xbox 360. And a gaming PC. I also have an original Nintedo entertainment system I got off of ebay.
I have no life.
Really looking forward to this game called Sea of thieves coming out on Xbox one here real soon.
