General / Off-Topic Return of the...Mole

I'm making a return to the Xbox scene with a new and shiny One X... due to a certain very popular cowboy game... I also won't feel as guilty posting in here now either. I can't see me going back to E-D on the one X though...I like my Voice Attack, 56 button HOTAS and blue HUD too much for that ;)

I'll have to try and remember my Microsoft account password now to reactivate my Gamertag and Xbox Live account [where is it]
 
Ahh I really really would like an X-Box One X. My front room TV (just a tiny gaming monitor) is a bit too old to justify it too so it would need an upgrade also.

Enjoy the new game / console! 👍

I'm going to run it from my desktop next to the PC on one of my 30" 4K monitors via an HDMi switcher box...my gaming chair is way comfier than my sofa anyhow. I've still got my Elite controller with chatpad, a set of stealth turtles and my controller charging stands from my old Xbone so that's a bonus.

One more sleep till it gets here...I'm looking forward to it as much as I swore I'd never be able to justify running a custom gaming rig and an X one. Unfortunately... Rockstar saw fit not to release the cowboy game on PC just yet... that and dreams of being a cowboy when I was a kid sealed that particular deal [where is it]

Ive only relatively recently upgraded to an X bout 6 weeks ago...the old oneS had been a hard worker and performed admirably, but once ye try the same game in a oneX, ye wont fully appreciate the benefits. I have both now so if I ever had cause to doubt, I can remind meself why I could justify the cost...in which I would include the cost of the big 4k presumably TV. Normal people dont spend the guts of a grand to watch emmerdale and late night adult stuff only 24 hours a day which is handy...haha handy...moving on...

I played this game fer a year on PC and a year and half roughly on a oneS, so I have what I think is a very multi platform experience of how this game plays...and in general how games play rdr2 not withstanding. Im utterly addicted...Im a 47 yr old father of a developing young mind that may one day rule the galaxy if shes anything half as good as her old man. Its got so bad, my cleaning lady...actually no shes not a lady, my cleaning girl claims she cant get her other jobs done after an hour breathing in the smoke of what Im on atm.

Ah the naive minds of the younger generation...shes paid to make me feel better by doing the stuff I have issues with around the house. I guess she hasnt really seen that many people living with chronic depression before, she thinks this is rock bottom...haha oh no this is not rock bottom this is shameless addiction.

RDR2 really is that good btw and so much more...almost dont wanna give spoilers to those who havent played but Im weak willed and prone to rambling at the best of times. Ive spent entire 5 and 6 hour sessions just messing around, barely making any game progress cos the whole world around me it literally filled with details. The one where when ye point a gun in the blind mans face and he doesent react because hes genuinely blind and telling the truth...try doing that to someone who isnt blind and see what happens. Its the little details like that and this game is jam packed with them that has me hooked...Ive had my throat ripped out by a pet dog after I robbed his owners house and killed its master...didnt see that comin haha...

Spaceships are different ergo why still here, but down to just browsing mostly...Ive lost me ED mojo, fer the mo...ment...here in spirit if not in person. Good to see ye back to gaming with the peasants and poor simple folks again...ye dont really belong in the master race...ye know ye dont ye cant let go of this place ye never did. See how good I am? I should charge money fer advice this good ^

Still got my old GT and Microsoft account that I've had from the original Xbox release back in 1999... Mole HD, same as it ever was...

Wasn't there a song about that somewhere?

I've also just realised...I've got over 100 digital games still on that account From E-D to Rise of the Tomb Raider, Skyrim SE, Fallout 4, Battlefield One Ultimate, Witcher 3 GOTY and ESO :eek:

Hope you get decent net speed on the island, my mate bought black ops 4 on disk because he prefers having the disc for some strange reason and it traspired that it contained a whopping 256mb of the 60 odd gb game

I've ditched BT on the island and went with a company that supplies broadband through TV white noise... I'm getting 12Mbps down and 5 up...hardly superfast broadband but my latency is near zero with a ping to most UK servers at less than 20 Ms. BT was just abysmal at 2.5Mbps down and 0.3 up. RDR2 wasn't bad...84 gig install from 2 DVD's and a 3.2 gig day one patch... an hour installing at the most.

Mole HD on Xbox...same as PC. I've fired you over a friends request too mate, hope you don't mind? :)

I've gone for a hybrid look for the Harry Potter cupboard...HDMi splitters are handy things [yesnod]

Welcome back friend. If you ever do ED on the box let me know, I'd love to wing-up and learn a thing or two. Heard MS has authorized another HOTAS, but have not checked it out so don't know for sure. Still dreaming about Warthog/TPR simship on my PC. Pledged to Denton Patreus and really like the discord group; if you ever PP we'd love to fly with you (they have a really great group of master race pilots). o7 Cmdr
