    although I'm not an audiophile by any means, I think my m50xs are fairly fantastic for the price

    IMO, this looks freaking amazing--almost looks as if it's an actual filmed scene from a Star Wars movie. We kind of got a taste of it, aesthetically, with the Star Wars Battlefront photogrammetry stuff, but this is on a different plane.
     
    Update: Nvidia reached out to Ars Technica to correct a detail about the rendering engine:

    reality: there are no Games, engines or GPUs that use this tech and will be years before it becomes the standard.
     
    the clickbait is real.

    So he shouldn't get banned for his actions? Plenty of youtubers have gotten their channels locked down from uploading, demonetized or removed for much,much less. If not for them being a ''youtube star'' they would likely be in a Japanese prison.

    shadowbyte got a reaction from Xander Cousins in Ubisoft adds Predatory Lootboxes to Rainbow Six Siege and increases base game price by 50%   
    I've played 258 hours to this day, and imo, it's worth it
    All of the operators are unlockable with Renown; I saved for a solid week for Hibana and Echo, the Alpha Pack system is quite good, and the gameplay is excellent. There was never a point I felt pressured into opening my wallet; some of the best operators are in the base game. If you have a group of people you can play with on a regular basis, the game becomes so much more fun, but solo queuing is still incredibly entertaining depending on who you get matched with.
    It's fucking stupid of Ubisoft to add paid lootboxes, but, as pointed out by others, you don't HAVE to purchase them; it's all cosmetic anyway. Ubisoft is apparently looking to rework the Starter Edition's operator prices in the future, which should alleviate the main detriment to it.

    Haha, well this is a new low. You've completely fucked up this news post.
     
    The Outbreak Packs are for an event, they're not long term. You get 4 free loot boxes for logging in during the event. People that buy the $60 version of the game get 10 for free. Loot boxes will contain no duplicates. They only contain cosmetic items, nothing that will affect how you play the game. The $15 base game is still available. So they haven't increased the price of the base game.
      Seriously kid, if you're going to report on things, at least do it accurately.
     
    As for my view, I don't see a problem with this. If someone really wants to get all of the in game items, they can pay for them. They're simply cosmetic, and have no effect on game play. One of my good friends loves Siege, and has many hours invested. He bought the starter pack, and unlocked items as he saw fit. You don't have to buy the more expensive versions if you don't want to, but the option is there. What's wrong with that? Not only that, but if you only paid $15 for the game, then you can easily afford to spend some money on loot boxes if you really want the cosmetic gear.
