Kids say the darndest things

I would love to see the 180.

Saw the Kinda Funny XCast crew we’re creating profile pics with Copilot, so I thought I’d give it a try.

All cyclical, considering that’s where the Xbox logo came from.

Huh? As someone who’s pretty into the history of Xbox I’m surprised I haven’t heard of this.

I’ve read both Takahashi books and don’t remember any mention of the Xbox logo being associated with a toaster or bread. Admittedly it’s been a while since I read them.

Could you enlighten me?

From what I had heard, Seamus Blackley based the logo on the way certain bread cracks in am oven since he is a lover of baking. Apparently this is apocryphal though…

You know, there’s so many narratives going around, I lost track. In fact, everyone seems to be bitter at one thing, joking at another. So I’ll just look at wrestling things to settle down.

Oh wait. That’s bad too.

So how’s the year treating you so far?

Cool. I’d never heard that. And it kind of makes sense, too. Pity it’s not true. :upside_down_face:

Trying PS Remote Play makes me appreciate Xbox more on the account of freedom. I was assumption I can use any controller, but I’m stuck using PS controller only. Here I thought I can use Ally built in controller. Well that will make my backlog tougher than needed…

Isnt there some windows software you need/can load to have it fully emulate the DS/PS Controller so it works? I saw something a while ago but didnt pay enough attention to it at the time and now cant recall the name.

I know that feel breh

Really good start to the year for me. Started my 18 day vacation yesterday (Thursday) and finally (re)started Starfield after having a bug/glitch that deleted all my save files back on September 25th. Just landed in New Atlantis after 4+ hours as every mission takes me a while to get through as I loot everything. lol

My 49ers (NFL) have the #1 seed in the NFC Playoffs which gives them home field advantage throughout the playoffs and a bye meaning they only need to win two games instead of three to get to the Super Bowl!!

Wrestling wise, I watched an entire episode of WWE Monday Night RAW for the first time in over a decade this past Monday. I still prefer AEW but some stuff that both companies do either baffles the shit out of me or is just meh. Will keep watching both for the time being and see how it all goes.

That’s a good amount of sales for a great piece of DLC.

Yep “DS4Windows”, it works well it’s just a pain in the ass.

It sucks huh! As awesome as the features on the PS controller are, the symmetrical sticks always give me hand cramp, which is why I havent completed most of their recent titles.

Over Xmas most of the PS games were anywhere between £7-£15 on CDkeys (for Steam) so I picked up a few so I can either play them on GeforceNow or a handheld PC (when I can get one). Going forward if they dont release them on Steam I guess I just wont play them.

Yeah, I just saw something about that. Double false alarm.
