RDR2 takes a while to really get going anywhere between 4-12 hours. The whole second chapter is still kind of an extended tutorial. It's a pretty big ask.

Thought it was overlooked. I liked it a pretty good bit. I think Tango Gameworks did a real good job with this game. Their new game Ghostwire Tokyo still looks pretty hype.
Just finished it part 2. Fun game but didn’t care for the 1/2 hour movie at the end. Christ.
The middle part of that game is where it kinda loses it's focus for me. The whole guy thinking he's like a God or something. Not a real scary game but pretty unsettling and weird.

Sudden Strike 4

It's a light WWII based RTS. It's fun and doesn't take a lot of time or brain power. Good change of pace/palette cleansing game.

You think that's bad, try Death Stranding's ending. It goes for like 2 hours (no joke).

That’s one of my main pet peeves with games. A great story makes the gameplay experience more enjoyable but the moment the gameplay is removed, it turns into an absolute chore within a matter of minutes.

2 hours?!? That must been a real test of your patience. Christ, I would have been so fucking annoyed. I can’t even imagine. Lol

I was going to watch something with my gf after I'd finished. She was so mightily pissed after it just kept continuing.

Yep, yes sir, 1 TB(if there's options). They seemed to be running a little high on price though.

I probably will. I heard this is better and more goofy than 7 which I liked a decent bit.

The only way to describe it - which is what everyone says - is this is what Diablo 3 should have been.

I was always a big fan of using the Bills because of Thomas/Reed/Lofton/Kelly and their great D. I also liked using the Oilers and Falcons because of the Run and Shoot.

Play as Detroit and put Barry Sanders in at KR and PR. He's a cheat code.

The XBOX Series X arrived on Wednesday. I got it set up and downloaded Microsoft Flight Simulator on Friday.

Yesterday I flew a 2 hour flight from Minneapolis to BWI in a A320. Unbelievable. I'm currently waiting on the yoke/throttle/rudder pedals I ordered.
