    I've enjoyed the game thus far, though it does get a bit monotonous at times.

    Cyberpunk 2077 looks amazing.

    Also, I'll be surprised if the game actually releases in 2020.

    Don't say that. We don't need more 2020 bad news.

    Hadn't heard about it until a few days ago, when I saw a joke that was like, "Cyberpunk trailer dropped just in time to give its target audience enough time to turn 18." Because apparently the game has been in development for 8 years.

    4. Announced in 2012, but started actual development in 2016 after they finished Witcher 3.

    Pretty damn cool:
    “CD Projekt Red invented a technology based on sound analysis from neural networks, producing real-time lip sync for all localisations.”

    Amazon just makes it too easy to shop with them.

    I had previously pre-ordered Cyberpunk 2077 from Gamestop for $54.99 because I had my monthly $5 off for being a pro member that I wanted to use. The game wasn't going to ship to me until like, December 14th, which meant I wasn't going to get to play it much before being out of town 12/17 - 12/30. Oh well.

    Went on Amazon today to buy something and saw Cyberpunk on sale for $49.99 with release day shipping. So not only do I save an additional 5 bucks on the game, but now I also get it on release day, giving me a full weekend with it before I leave, which will almost certainly convince me that packing the Xbox for the trip is worthwhile. Win-win-win. Thanks Jeff!

    Within the last year, I've received a full credit for a year Prime membership and a full refund ($550ish) on a rowing machine that arrived with a faulty display monitor. I order everything I can from Amazon.

    Their customer service is on point. Any time I've had a problem I've ended up with promo credit, even if it was small.

    First time I used Prime Now they left out a 20 dollar item on a 100 dollar order. They apologized profusely and gave me the whole order for free

    Has anyone purchased and played Cold War? I'm more of an "only buy CoD once every few years" guy, but all my friends bought it, so it's tempting me.

    Got Ghost of Tsushima and Last of Us Part II over the weekend. Looking forward to starting 1 or both tonight.

    Yes and yes. Played the alpha and beta on PS4 but bought the game for PC. Personally I like it but the game is going to need some tweaking which I look forward to in future updates.

    Ghost of Tsushima is a lot of fun initially, but it has gotten old sort of quickly. The gameplay feels like Assassin’s Creed in Japan, which means it’s repetitive. The main story is interesting, but the side stories are so damn boring and drawn out. And they take so long to complete that they space the main story our way too much.

    I think my favorite part of the game are the one on one duels with nothing but katanas, but those are few and far between despite plenty of opportunities.

    I bought Star Wars Squadrons for like $20. Probably worth $20. Different kind of game than I usually play.

    Bought RDR2 last night. Hopefully it’ll be downloaded before I get a PS5
