My point is that there's no reason to get the frame, or any other new VR goggles. There are no games I find worth playing on them. VR game development has stalled years ago. HL Alyx is still the peak of what you can get.

My mother was watching TV while peeling potatoes when an extra news broadcast came on.
Both towers had already been hit when the news came on (around 15:30 Dutch time), but we did see the towers collapse. It was horrible. I remember that people already started making sick jokes about it in the battle.net chatroom.
The concept of terrorist attacks was new to me, so it was a real eye-opener. The world felt different after that.

I only buy console games second hand because I never pay full price for games, so if that's no longer possible I'll just not own consoles anymore.

Comment on 'The Boys' has ended. What are your thoughts? in ~tv

Big fights, lots of death and carnage, cities destroyed etc. Instead, we get a small brawl in the Oval Office. Homelander was suddenly a lot weaker and slower and The Boys were suddenly a lot stronger. It didn't make any sense.
The virus and V1 turned out to be entirely pointless.
The only good thing about season five is A-train's redemption arc in my opinion.

Comment on Nintendo raises prices for Switch, Switch 2 and NSO in ~games

An OLED model is probably still years away. I think it's going to take even longer considering the insane RAM prices and the additional cost of an OLED display. An OLED model might end up being too expensive and not sell well.

Performance and the opportunity to make my nephew happy with my Switch OLED were the main reasons I got a Switch 2.

Otherwise, it's not really worth it at the moment in my opinion, unless you're annoyed with the performance of some games on the Switch 1.If you don't already own a Switch, I'd get a Switch 2.

I'm still hoping we'll get a great Star Trek show again some day, until then Strange New Worlds will have to suffice.
Basically what they promised Star Citizen would be, but offline single player.
