the DUKE !!!
Wonder how that oled will work with pc...

Anyway - I love/loved 360 controllers. It is the "perfect" ontroller.
I bought xbox one s controller for pc some time ago and I just cannot get into it for some reason:
-sticks heads are small and a bit looser but what is worse, I don't like the concave edge on inside of the sticks
-controller "handles" are shorter than 360 and have sharp edges underneath
-bumpers are terrible. They double click and are weirdly placed
-triggers are weird. When pressed, they leave a big open edgy gaping hole... and the travel is so long and smooth that I don't feel if I am pressing it... kinda missing feedback of spring
-I liked 360 dpad (since I dont like fighting games) and this dpad is kinda flush with it's socket but objectively it is better

Overall it feels comfy, very sturdy and all but I cannot get into it even though the initial feeling in hand is fantastic.
The ps4 gamepad is the opposite of what it was last gen though. It's very, very nice but I dislike bad battery life and no button prompts on pc.

Those assholes just suspended my Microsoft account due to illicit activity. I wonder if it was because I used VPN to bypass country restrictions to install Cortana on my smartphone.
Otherwise it means my account has been compromised because I didn't do anything else with it.

Maybe they realised they need a popular platform like Steam for their games - to even get some sales.

Meanwhile at Microsoft
Quote:
Jörg Neumann spoke in our interview about why Age of Empires does not appear on Steam. According to him, this is because Microsoft does not differentiate between shops like "Steam" and "Windows Store", but understands Xbox Live as the actual platform:

"This may be a misunderstanding, the platform is where people play, and people play in the social spaces of Xbox Live, which means that if Xbox Live exists somewhere, we can get a game out there." Unfortunately, there is no solution to doing this on Steam, but it depends less on us than on other people."

Source ERA's translation of Gamestar.de article: Microsoft: Age of Empires not on Steam is not our choice

Yea i read it earlier today.

Microsoft are so full of shit, really. Laughing
Instead of not using some special multiplayer platform like Xbone Live, and to reach a way bigger audience, they are just as stubborn as ever.

I'm not buying anything from their Store anytime. Release it also on Steam, and then you might have a purchase.
And from what i get, i'm not alone with that opinoin.


Well, MS are retards and i bet they will cry about low sales and wonder why. Laughing

No, it will stay shitty as long as Steam <> Win10 Store cross-play won't be a thing ...
