Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
"The Brazil-based indie games publisher Deadpix Studios and Istanbul -based (Turkey) indie games developer Wendeoo, are today very proud and happy to announce that their dark metroidvania/RPG "Undivine", is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One (a demo version of the game is also available)." - Jonäs Ek, TGG.
The second trailer for GTA VI contains an Easter Egg that potentially connects it to Rockstar Games' previous title, Red Dead Redemption 2.
Because the gaming community didn't want it to release this year. It was only delayed because of the massive amounts of pressure they were under to do so. It's been happening for years.
I would never recommend spending extra to get 7.1 headsets. More drivers means smaller drivers means inferior sound. The minimal soundstage advantage that you get from having extra drivers positioned around a tiny earcup can easily be offset by some of the surround sound software out these days like Direct3D and Xaudio. You can get VERY similar results with stereo headphones coupled with surround sound software, but with much, much better fidelity.
Personally, I think the best possible solution for gaming right now is to get a high quality set of stereo headphones with a 1/8" detachable cable (like the NAD HP50, Mr. Speakers Mad Dog, or V-Moda M100/XS), and then the V-moda Boom Pro.
I have owned many headsets over the years. my favorite headset thus far has been the turtle beach 500ex turd-o-dooty edition for my xb 360. When I bought my xb1 I decided to get the 500x wireless tb's for it Needless to say they sound and set up for them were excellent, but the head band fell apart with in 6 months of use!
I am considering replacing them with the 700 x,but not if they fall apart like the 500's have. And I'm very gentle with my gaming stuff as almost to a fault.
I will be boxing up whats left of the 500s and shipping them back to turtle beach!
As it stands now for a headset,I'm using the afterglow AG9's. They may not be 7.1,but they are wireless,sound great,and didn't cost $300.00!!!
