Microsoft bringing back Xbox All Access bundles with Project Scarlett upgrade included in one. G’damn that’s gotta be tempting for some!

microsoft all access project scarlett

Microsoft is bringing back its All Access bundle. The motherfucker is essentially the same as a cell phone subsidization or whatever — you pay as little as $19.99 a month for 24-months. In return? You get a console, XBL, and Xbox Game Pass. But, wait, there’s more! If you choose to opt into the Xbox One X bundle? You’ll get a free upgrade to Project Scarlett next year.

Pretty fucking dope deal, no?

Monday Morning Commute: the stars are yours (and mine)

monday morning commute the stars are yours (and mine)

Goddamn, is the Fall ever a twinset of gloom and glory. There’s something sublime about watching the leaves turn, experiencing the air crispen, and observing the stars throb. But, at the same time? Man, does it make existing a struggle. Early evenings, dreary afternoons, and the promise of only more darkness for the foreseeable future.

Like I said, a twinset! For as much as I enjoyed Fall last week? Sunday was a soufflé of sadness and ennui.

And then!

The work week!

Fuck me!

Anyways, thankfully, I got my own series of supplements to get me through the work week. And, I don’t just mean the uncomfortably large number of actual supplements I take on a daily basis. I also mean the variety of shows, games, and other pop culture popcorn I’m gorging on, to fight back the darkness.

And since this is Monday Morning Commute, I’ll enumerate them for you! Then, I hope you’ll join me in the comments section.

The Foundation is some of my favorite science-fiction. Jared Harris and Lee Pace fucking rule. This casting is fantastic! That said, man. It’s hard to be stoked about a series on Apple TV, with David S. Goyer as showrunner. Fuck.

Weekend Open Bar: High Flying and High Fiving!

weekend open bar high fiving and high flying

Oh yeah, motherfuckers! It’s time for high fiving, and high flying! At least for Bateman and me! Tomorrow night we’re going to a Halloween party, and with the lede in mind, you can guess who we are going as! And I’ll confess, I’ve never been closer to having a mustache. And I’ll confess, it terrifies me.

If you’re good, you’ll get pictures. Unless it terrifies you as well, in which you’ll get pictures if you sin.

Anyways! Anyways. This is Weekend Open Bar! It’s the hangout that hits every weekend, imploring you to spend some time with me aboard the Space-Ship Omega.

watch dogs 3 delayed

Watch Dogs 3 is also delayed! For a minute, Spring 2020 looked insane. DOOM EternalFinal Fantasy VII Money Grab, The Last of Us Part II, and Cyberpunk 2077. Well, little by little, it’s thinning out. Feeling a bit less overwhelming.

‘The Last of Us Part II’ delayed until May 2020. Sucks, but delay is better than compromised quality.

the last of us part ii delay may 2020

It was announced literally last month that The Last of Us Part II was dropping in February, 2020. That is no more. Now, the title is dropping May 29th, 2020. And I ain’t complaining! Not only do I want the team to take as long as they need, but it also frees up what was an insanely packed Spring.
