    On PC, I have over 300 hours in Fallout 4. It was my first Fallout ever and, to me, it was great.
    So I grabed Fallout New Vegas this weekend, and so far I like it too.

    I recall FO:NV being quite divisive when it came out; I enjoyed it at least as much as the prior FO:3 game. The ultra-purists of course hated all the 3D shooters, it just seemed like Oblivion with guns to me (in a good way.)

    There's a mod named the Tale of Two Wastelands which joins the two games -- FO:3 and FO:NV -- into a continuous playthrough. I re-played both games early in the year and very much enjoyed the combination of the two. Here's the FAQ: Tale of Two Wastelands - FAQ

    So did Swaaye buy the same equipment as I did and just post in a thread elsewhere? :D :D

    You forgot the Quest headset too! Haha...

    Nope. The Honeycomb Bravo throttles have a bunch of optional components to snap on different ways of emulating different types of planes. Boeing-emulated controls are already included, you can also get the Airbus A319/A320 throttle pack: HONEYCOMB AIRBUS THROTTLE PACK | Hands on Review and Configuration. - YouTube

    This kit can emulate one, two or four engine control methods, and then also include air brakes, flaps, mixture, prop angle and even includes a trim wheel. Further, the controls allow for optional reverse-thrust methods and even lockouts. You should check it out: Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant Unboxing - YouTube Start at the 5:30 mark to see the different levers that come out of the box, hop to the 11 minute mark to see how the system can change in so many ways...

    CN: Mine is super-better than that one :D :D

    Did you know your yoke is designed to accept these

    Ps: Are you going to buy a separate stick/hotas for space/combat sims or are you just going to make do?

    I'll have the Oculus headset strapped to my head so the extra little dials and doodads aren't much help.

    Not yet to the HOTAS, maybe later.

    Logitech was actually the one I was considering first, they have all three matchy-matchy yoke, throttle and pedal setups that can daisychain together. Theoretically, they'd also play nice with my G905 mouse and wireless charging mousepad, my C920 camera, and in a near future I'm strongly considering one of their keyboards. However, while Logi's flight hardware has acceptable reviews at the outset, it seems they have problems with longevity.

    I replayed "SOMA" last night. I don't understand the horror elements of the game at all nor do I care for them, but I love everything else about it so it was a fun nostalgic trip.

    I was going to try "Chorus" today. Not sure why it caught my eye as maybe fun, but it did and I'm really looking for something new/fun to play.

    I like how Bubbles games now, she plays damn near everything and does it well. I can't believe how much I've improved her in the last year with just a monitor upgrade and some sweat equity. :)

    I started playing MDK 2 (I had a blast with the first one!), but some unfortunate bits (like bad puzzles or horrible platforming) made me feel frustrated and I uninstalled it.

    Then, I installed Loom. I'm liking it, so far (just a few minutes).

    Speaking of remastering I'm currently playing Kingdoms of Amular Remastered
    it must be the most subtle remaster ever I dont notice any difference. It's supposed to be optimised for widescreen which may be true but it's not optimised for ultrawide
    the top of cutscenes are cut off. Apart from that it's a good game

    Anachronox. Nice. So far, it's a bit tedious to go back and forth from one point of the map to another, but it's nice and I'm having fun.

    Mafia, the "Just when I thought I was out ..." edition. :) It was on sale at Epic Games, I had this month's coupon, and buying the game got me a new one. I played the other two, though I'm going at these in reverse order having Played Mafia 3 first, then Mafia 2 the Definitive Edition not too long ago. Lol, it's a lot easier to enjoy a game that was a bit flawed at release after it's later had all its patches, and is now steeply discounted. ;)

    I'm having fun, though the forced driving parts are very challenging.
