Recently installed S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow of Chernobyl for another play through again. I can totally see myself playing through the series again, especially with all the new mods that have been released since the last time I played.

Give Lost Alpha a try. One of the best mods I've tried for SOC.

God of War

Simply beautiful

I've been playing the .63 release of DayZ recently. I can say the new engine has definitely improved game mechanics and frame rates.

I've picked up Wolf: The Old Blood again after what I thought was a few months of not touching it. Turns out it was 18 months...

I will report back once I have done some meaningful play through.

Also myself and Lady Carlos have been giving the 2013 Tomb Raider another blast...and what a blast it is. Despite me not getting on with it when it first came out, I am very much enjoying blasting through it and collecting shit. I love collecting things and this has things aplenty, so good news for me. We are enjoying it that much we have ordered Rise of the Tomb Raider too

worth getting the 1x?

Funny, I just started playing Rise. I was one of the people who liked Tomb Raider 2013, even tho it hardly had any tomb raiding.

Rise... eehh it's ok. It has two major flaws I feel; one: it tried to compensate for the lack of Tombing in the previous game by constantly giving you side missions, challenges and tombs to the point where it becomes a chore, and second the story is all about shooty shooty runny runny, which makes the aforementioned tombing way out of place. I have to save this and that before he and she dies! But first, 3 days of trudging through the wilderness in search of optional crypts and murals.
It makes for a stark contrast where the game has a hard time deciding if it wants to be an action game or a puzzle platforming collectathon. In my eyes it fails at trying to be both.

Depends... I have a one x and an OG Xbone setup side by side and I've run many games side by side. The one x has obviously better graphics and loads everything faster and probably has better framerates. If those things matter to you then yes, it's well worth it. If not, then I would pass. It made a big difference when I played PUBG as you'd be able to dive down, land and start looting instantly as all the buildings and weapons would load by the time your feet touched the ground while on the old xbox buildings wouldn't be fully loaded and would take 10 - 20 seconds to fully load making looting or entering buildings impossible.

My kids were playing Forza Horizon 4 yesterday and both started the game at the same time so they were roughly in the same spots in the game simultaneously so I could see quite a difference in the graphics as both were displaying the same scenes.

Bought a 2tb external like two years ago, not until now that's it's close to filling up.
I have a little under 200 games installed. It's only the big hitters that will cause problems on a 500gb drive (ie Forza, Halo MCC and such). Most games are around 6gb.
