Yeah., I'm going to need to learn to control it a *lot* better before I get a bike
Annoying bug I've come across - sometimes in the middle of combat it "sticks" in the quick hack screen and there appears to be no way out. All you can do is move v-e-r-y sl-o-w-l-y until you get killed
Just tried Stadia though and on a decent connection, I'm pretty impressed. I played Fenix Rising for an hour or so (it has a free demo until end of January) and it was pretty much exactly like playing it on a fast PC. Kind of wish I'd bought the Stadia Cyberpunk deal now so I could run the ray tracing and stuff.
Caps-lock puts you into hacking mode, you might have hit it.

Had a real blast playing this, and for the most part very few glitches. Not saying there were none but they were minor and nothing like the glitches I had with Valhalla, which frequently required loading a previous save. I'm guessing the hype its received over the last few years has brought the knockers out in force, although I suppose the crit regarding base Xbox One and PS4 is justified. Graphic and animation were a little disappointing in places, sometimes it seemed more like a last gen game, enhanced for the xbox one, but the city was well drawn and atmospheric, and on the series x well populated. Probably won't touch it now until it gets a next gen upgrade as I've put quite a few hours into it and looking forward to playing Medium nextOh, you're going to love the next bit

It doesn't help that I'm currently swapping between Cyberpunk and Watch Dogs Legion
How you finding Legion, that's another game that's had some stick? I've just swapped Valhalla for it so I guess I'll find out myself soon enough.That's good to hear. CDPR have taken a massive kicking over what is, IMO, a beautiful and fun game. I understand all the anger from PS4 owners because it appears that it just doesn't work on their kit. Personally I think the enjoyment I've had from it so far is well worth the 40 quid I paid. And I have a l-o-n-g way to go
I've not played that game for a while was good though, quick stat check played 280H apparently lol
I still watch some on twitch though, Quickybaby being one streamer I've watched for years. He makes it look so easy, then I go try again and fail miserably. I was never any good at any kind of FPS though, think my spatial awareness is knackered
Xbox live Gold, the multiplayer online service for xbox, almost doubled in price yesterday, although that's only for new subscribers, those currently subscribed to xbox live gold will renew at the same price. Its clear MS strategy is to move new subscribers to Game Pass Ultimate, which inc Xbox Live Gold. It just makes no sense to pay £86 for Xbox Live Gold when you can get game pass ultimate for not much more.There are 3 kinds of membership: console, PC and one M$ refuse to call "both"
Both is £11 a month which is a real bargain. You can get a 3 month trial for £1 which is crazy. IF THEY LET YOU DO THIS then swap your console to a 3 month trial of both and continue if you like it. You'll pay £99 over a year instead of £96 for console only. (BTW I think the prices literally went up yesterday)
Legion has had the next gen treatment for the Series X too and it looks pretty impressive with raytracing and 4K. Only 30fps though but I think it gets away with it tbh.
