Just so you can say you knew about it before it was cool, get into GTA 5 RP (role playing) on Twitch.
Using the online component, people assume characters and act out whatever scenario they can come up with - sometimes ont eh fly, sometimes pre-planned. Servers are modified to maintain real-world systems - food and drink, injuries with people playing as medics, cops who can arrest you for crimes (red lights, robberies etc.), and jail time. Cars and properties can be bought and are locked to their owners, so if another character breaks in it is reported to the pigs.
Current favourites are Spamfish's Skip Skiperson - wildlife and survival expert and Vader's Barney Calgon.
- omfg ... the first one I started watching is hilarious ... it's a guy negotiating with a bank robber and it's amazing!monospaced
- this is so page 158 :p
no, seriously, i have it running on twitch every day - no better entertainment out there right now.arne - i'm mostly watching german streamers but will check your favs for sure. PmsProxy seems nuts.arne
- Yeah, the trio of Skip, Barney, and Raj is possibly the funniest thing I have seen in a long time.face_melter

Just got my Nintendo Switch today, and I am super excited :)
But there is one thing bugging me a bit...
The sound seems a bit too low, on the speakers itself, then for my surprise, on the headphones too.
Is this a general thing? Is there a ear/protection thingy activated?
I've been trying to find on forums the cause, and it seems a bit inconsistent ...- Well, it's a tablet, so...CygnusZero4
- I'm waiting for the Switch 360 IVBennn

Steam Sale begins today, around 6/7pm.
Will there be trash, will there be surprises. Will you really play that Japanese crab dating sim* for $1? It's only a dollar, go on - you'll never know until you try. Enter the wonderful world of teenage crab high school anxiety, navigating the sea-themed perils of hungry seabirds and trying to get your claws into the pants of that redhead crab cheerleader. Take a chance, I mean, what's $1 nowadays? Yer mother disnae even gie away swatches o her fanny for tha.
*crab dating sim may not exist.
- thx for the headsuphelloeatbreathedrive
- Not sure why downvotes. The steam sale every summer is awesome!monospaced
- Downvotes? Hahhahaha. Silly fuckers.face_melter
- Likely disappointment at there not being an actual Crab-Dating Sim.detritus
- Or someone who's mother actually does charge less than $1 for a glimpse of her growler.face_melter
- hahaha, and in turn can't afford a peek themself..detritus

Crab dating sim may be fake, but at least there is Pigeon dating sim to keep you busy:

Picked up a cheap copy of Forza Horizon 3 from cdkeys - can be installed on both Xbox and PC, with your progress synced to both platforms. Enjoying it a great deal, the open world mechanic works incredibly well. I was having a rare old time tooling about in my tuned Renault Clio until I ventured into the car shop and saw this...
So good.
- i think i had a toy version of that when i first holidayed in Spain in the early 80sdetritus
- ^ as a side note, the game is set in Australia and has classic, abandoned, cars you can discover in barns. One is the V8 Interceptor from Mad Max <3face_melter

I bought a Switch on my trip to Japan. I'm playing Zelda but barely started.
- Are consoles not regionalised these days? I didn't realise. Was it any cheaper?detritus
- Consoles aren't region-locked, publishers can make the games locked though but almost all are region-free inc. Switch.face_melter
- Arent' they different to address the power outlet standards in each nation?monospaced
- Not for a long time. Now they have internal power units that can operate on different voltages. You only need to change the power cable.face_melter
- The Wii was the only one which was region locked because... Nintendo. But the Switch is their first genuine region-free machine if I remember correctly.face_melter
- Switch, PS4 and Xbox One are region free. The power plug works globally you only need to use an adapter for the plug.ernexbcn
- I bought the Zelda and Mario Kart 8 japanese cartridges which have english (and perhaps more) localisation(s).ernexbcn
- It costed me about 230€, retail price here is 330€, I had to wake up early a saturday and went to a Bic Camera to participate on a raffle to win a chance to buyernexbcn
- I was lucky and was among the 5 winners for a chance to buy a gray Switch, there about 10 other winners for the neon version.ernexbcn
- Retail price of it in Japan is cheaper than here plus you don't pay the 8% tax for being a tourist.ernexbcn
- But it's sold out everywhere, if it weren't for me winning that raffle I wouldn't had been able to find one sitting on a shelve I'm sure.ernexbcn

I was trying to get an idea of what vr racing looked like and found this video. If you can get past the annoying guy this does look like it could be fun. Just wish it was Forza, Assetto Corsa, Project Cars or Gran Turismo Sport
- i like to put a fan blowing in my face when i play this gamescarabin
- lol that is a great tipernexbcn
- Yeah, i was looking into doing this with arduino so it changes with speed. Pretty simple to put together from what I've seen.SteveJobs
- ah such great idea SJscarabin
- Two examples:
http://www.racedepar…
http://www.isrtv.com…SteveJobs - I would get sick trying to play this. VR is never really going to fully catch on. Mixed reality is where it's at.CygnusZero4
- PSVR has sold a million units in a year, 6.3 million other headsets sold in 2016, 14 million phone-based headsets are expected to sell in 2017scarabin
- i'd say it's already caught onscarabin
- Wonder how it would feel with something like Burnout or Wipeout where the speed is really fast.Nutter
- ^ Wipeout would be intense; especially on weed.ideaist

Regarding VR games I've heard that the following should be really good:
SuperHot (shooter) on PC and PS4
Everspace (space shooter) on PC, Mac, PS4 and Xbox One
Thumper (rhythm racing game) on PC and PS4
- Oh and Alien Isolation with VR https://www.youtube.…Nutter
- ^ Fuck that, the Non-VR version was scary as it was!!dee-dubs
- thumper is a lot of funscarabin
