Playing Turmoil. Why would you cap your mouse heavy game at 30 FPS. It's a sim so hardly needing reflexes so not a huge dealbreaker but mouse cursors feel awful at 30 FPS.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
Is it a fun game?

Having watched the videos, five minutes of the dev playthrough, and skimming through the reviews long enough to find one that literally says 'This game is fun,' I think I will tentatively suggest that one could in fact derive a buck fiftys worth of fun from this title. Maybe. Probably. It looks okay.

I think I'm gonna start using How Long To Beat for my games. Are anyone else using it? On the other side it's not that necessary as I already keep track of my completed games in an Excel document.

So recomended price for GTX1060/6GB is 250$ (and pointless Founders Edition for 299$). Not bad, i will wait for benchmarks but i will probably purchase this card if prices are normal this fall.

Microsoft alters statement on Xbox Play Anywhere support.

Microsoft has altered its statement on its policy for Xbox Play Anywhere titles, suggesting that not all future Microsoft Studios games will be playable across both PC and Xbox, as originally stated.

In the original statement (viewable on Wayback Machine), Yusuf Mehdi, CVP of Microsoft's Windows and Devices Group, explained: "Every new title published from Microsoft Studios will support Xbox Play Anywhere and will be easily accessible in the Windows Store."

The revised statement, however, states: "Every new title published from Microsoft Studios that we showed onstage at E3 this year [emphasis added] will support Xbox Play Anywhere and will be easily accessible in the Windows Store."

The new wording suggests that Microsoft doesn't want to commit to all future Microsoft Studios-published games being playable across both PC and Xbox, meaning we'll have to wait and see whether future games in the Halo or Forza Motorsport series could come to PC.

Multiple games have already been confirmed for Xbox Play Anywhere, however, including Forza Horizon 3, Scalebound, Sea of Thieves, Halo Wars 2 and Gears of War 4. The first game to be supported, ReCore, launches on September 13.

I, for one, am shocked that Microsoft would backtrack on it's commitment to PC. Shocked I say.

Do I have to add every game I own....manually.

That's half the fun :D

It's easier once you have all your collection and you only have to add the new ones you're getting, but I had fun filling it for the first time and it helps me to keep track of all games I own. It even has a: what game should I play now?

Adding games is... fun?

The "What game should I play" part can be done with any Steam roulette site without adding games manually

I don't want to add 800+ games dude.

Well, I did XD

You will have to do it inevitably with any service like this, unless it somehow loads all the games from your account (I think HLTB does this), and it will only work with Steam anyway. If you enter my backlogg you will see that I have more games on consoles than on Steam, so that's not for me, and I prefer Backloggery's interface.

That's the thing, only Steam. I'm not only a PC gamer, guys.

Raptr can track your game time no matter what platform you are using. Also it can add games to your Raptr game list when you start game for the first time.
