Re: The Official NextBox Thread!
Frankly I was never a fan of what they were trying to do with Fable Legends myself. It was pretty much downhill after Fable 2 anyways. Without the "superstar" Molyneux there anymore, I guess this was just a matter of time.
Re: VR Gaming
I'd be shocked by this. It was most likely a placeholder price. Even with the weak CDN dollar, twice the price of the console would be outrageous.

Re: Fallout 4 - PS4, PC, XBO
Wrapped up 3 out of 4 of the main story branches through selective loading and playthroughs.
Only one I'm missing is the Railroad. Overall all of them have very cool elements that are worth experiencing.
Overall a pretty great game.

I bought it through Green Man Gaming. 1 - it was cheaper than the console version. 2 - I found a 20% discount code for Green Man Gaming. 3 - It's a Steam code.
With tax, it was about 17$ cheaper than the before tax Xbox One price.

Pneuma: Breath of Life is the current game with gold freebie.
It's a fun little indy game and is probably the easiest 1000 gamerscore I've done. 11 Achievements, 850 points just for playing through the game. The last 150 for specials that are easily done.

Crucible normalizes the players. Levels don't mean anything in there unless an iron banner event is going on.
Re: Destiny
Results may vary with the cryptarch too. At ~290 light, I'll get mostly stull in the 265-285 range with the odd blue piece shooting up to 290+. Those have 1 purpose in life. Infusing purples.
If I'm not mistaken, a 280 purple will give you more light than a 290 blue

Re: Destiny
A few observations of the Taken King 1 - Don't be attached to your year 1 gear. Almost immediately obsoleted by random drops. 2 - The levels are essentially purely a limiting mechanism for gear. Light is still king. If you're level 40 and don't meet the recommended light level for a specific strike/...
