Vacation Open Thread

Today is the last day of my other vacation. Not much to say about it other than it had lots of things that go boom, and I’m not just talking about gaming. We all went up river and had a blast you could say. 😀 Also had a health screening today, and apparently I’m healthier than I thought I was. So I guess that’s good?

I think I’ll spend my last day checking out the new closed beta I made it into. I can’t really say much about it other than it’s a multiplayer FPS, but it looks like it’ll be interesting. I hope it turns out to be awesome since it really seems to be up my alley.

On another note I’ve been having some fun with some Devil May Cry games in Big Picture mode. Nice Hack n Slashes for when I feel like kicking back on the couch with a controller. Speaking of controllers I’m still eyeballing the Steam Controller. It’ll be interesting to see how it handles FPS games and other types that I prefer using a keyboard and mouse with. I don’t picture it replacing the keyboard and mouse as a whole, but for Big Picture gaming it could pull through. I’m gonna wait on the reviews first before I make the investment. For a controller it seems to be at a nice price point, waaaaaay better than the $150 XBox One controller that my co-workers are drooling over.

Oh joy. You can swap the buttons around. I guess that’s… something?
