Play Anywhere - Why Didn't I Use This Sooner???

I've always owned all three major consoles and a PC throughout my adult life.

In this current generation I'm mostly a PlayStation gamer but always used Steam for my PC gaming.

I do own a Series X but I barely used it save for the console exclusives or backwards compatibility library.

I have been playing Roadcraft religiously for the past 2-3 weeks on the Xbox downstairs, but if my kid or missus wanted to use the TV I'd go upstairs to my PC and play something else.

I just remembered I had Game Pass for PC as well as Xbox so I decided to browse for a PC game to play when I noticed I could install Roadcraft onto PC.

For some reason I had no idea I could use the exact same save file - like I dunno how, but it just never crossed my mind. 90% of my PC gaming is done on Steam. I had no idea one obtained Xbox game would also be cross-playable on PC (if available).

Lo and behold I installed Roadcraft and was able to continue my save file on PC.

Again, I know a lot of games allow for cross-platform cloud saves but for whatever dumbass reason I just did not even think to use this.

The amount of duplicate games I own on both Xbox and Steam seperately, when I could've been using the same service and transfer my saves instead of having two seperate copies.

Play Anywhere is awesome! Convenient as all hell!

Also I'm an idiot 😅😅😅

Buying an Original PS2, HDD Question

I haven't had an original PS2 since 2004 (had the slim models from that point) so I'm thinking of buying one (5xxxx model) soon.

I'm also thinking of grabbing a SATA HDD, but I don't want to waste money on one that may not be compatible.

Anyone got any ideas on what one to get?

No Mirror Reflections on PC?

Typically I've been playing on Xbox for the past two weeks and I already know mirrored reflections are limited to the 30fps/Quality setting, but I switched to the PC port tonight and can't seem to find a way to enable it here.

Finally Finished Sunken 100%

It took me a week and a half!!

I'm just happy to be playing a flatter map again.

The last thing I did was get a road built up to that godforsaken castle.

Roadcraft in Bed 😁

Decided to try Remote Play for Xbox on my Retroid Pocket 5. Working like a charm especially for a chill game like this.

Now THAT's a Project

MAP: SUNKEN

I'm gonna have to explore more of the northern side of this map to find a nearby sand quarry 😅

Question: Will this need to be paved as an objective at some stage?

I'm In Love With This Game

Of all genres, this is one I've never really been interested in but I always appreciated the efforts made to make them as meticulously as possible.

Couldn't get into MudRunner or SnowRunner, but I said I'd try this as I liked the idea of building roads and road networks.

I haven't put the game down all week.

It's insanely addictive. This will definitely be a physical pickup for me next week.

Can't Invite Friend on Different Platform

I'm playing on Xbox, and my fiancée is playing on PS5.

I sent her the invite code but it immediately comes up "failed to join".

Is there anything we're missing?

Wait.. So Modern Warfare 2019 Isn't Actually On Game Pass?

I just installed MW2019 with the intention of only playing the campaign and the menu locks me out of it unless I buy it.

[Xbox] Grabbed MW2019. WTF is with the list of downloads?

Intending to just play the story/campaign. However, once I started the download, I was met with the following in my download queue:

* Campaign Pack 1

* Campaign Pack 2

* Spec Ops Pack

* Campaign Pack

* Campaign & Spec Ops Pack

* MP & Spec Ops Pack

* MP Pack

* Spec Ops Pack 1

* MP Pack 2

Like, jesus christ wtf?

Why are there 3 or 4 campaign packs and why are two out of three numbered??

Why does it look so convoluted? What do I download and what can I delete?

My Employer Wants Us to Use AI to Manage Our Schedules and Clock-Ins

I don't feel comfortable using this app when the one we currently use works totally fine.

I don't want AI handling anything to do with my job.

Am I overreacting? I'm in the UK if anyone here knows anything about UK laws, because I certainly don't when it comes to this, and I don't want to risk disciplinary action for not switching to the app.

Strange Rainbow Textures

Playing GTA LCS and noticed the reflections of the cars have this weird multicoloured texture going on.

Tried flipping settings around but can't seem to get rid of it.

Any ideas?

Email Hacked: With a Ransom Of €100 Or Xbox Account Deleted

Not making this up, I wish I was.

Anyway (sorry if this is the wrong place to post this).

My sister rang me, in a panic.

\*\*"My xbox is hacked! Wtf do I do??"\*\*

Once I calmed her down, she explained.

She tried to sign into her Xbox account this morning and it told her that her credentials were incorrect.

She then received an anonymous message saying that if she doesn't send them €100, they'll delete her account.

She contacted me as I was heading into work so my hands are tied on what to do at this particular moment.

She told me she tried to contact Xbox about it, and they redirected her to a recover form, but the form was asking specific questions like "what email did you last send, and what email address was it to?"

1\* She only ever uses this email address for her Xbox

2\* How can she check when she can't get into said email address?

Does anyone know what can be done here? I'm literally helpless right now.

(ARMSX2) How do I Get Rid of This?

Just recently switched to ARMSX2 and I'm scratching my head on how to remove this pause symbol on the screen. I tried to hide touch controls but this symbol remains.

Any ideas?

Why Did I Think the Gettysburg Address Was Super Long?

My partner brought it up and asked what it was, and I said it was a lengthy speech Lincoln gave in the 1800s....

I was apparently wrong as it was only under 300 words and lasted a few minutes?

I was under the impression it went on for about 2 hours....
