And I'm over 1000 games in Steam

Started playing Player Unknown Battlegrounds yesterday and it's loads of fun.

Holy hell @Nic is alive

Yeah just been busy with work

Last that I heard, you were working from home with the cannabis industry.

One of the many benefits of working from home

@quixoticjeremy GreenMan Gaming sent me a coupon for 27% off which brought it down to $21 so I figured that was worth it.

I've started playing the Trine series. Sadly, I can't get Trine 1 to work. Trine 2, however is a lot of fun.

On what platform? Has always worked here.

Trine 2 is loads of fun if you have three people. I haven't tried the third one yet.

@quixoticjeremy Haha, yep! Guilty on that one.

@Nic or anyone else with Splatoon 2 or MK8 here is my friend code:
SW-4816-7246-5986

Thanks, I'll have to figure out where the codes go I haven't bothered to play with friends specifically and just play Turf Wars with randos at the moment.

Splatoon 2 on the Switch is great fun. Just came out on Friday. I'd never played the original on Wii U so it's all new to me.

Last few hours to pick up any Steam sales you want!

Just got a Steam Link... 70% off during the Steam Sale and I already have a Steam Controller.

I love my steam link and steam controller. Great for playing on the couch in front of your TV rather than your gaming computer, especially for local coop games.

I just bought Dead Cells from Bundlestars (they had a better deal than steam). It's as good as everyone is saying it is.

Payday 2 is free on Steam right now:

I've been hooked on Breath of the Wild on my Switch. A damn fine game!

We'd staple the condom to a free keycode card to make sure you are safe.

I got my Switch last week and have played PuyoPuyo Tetris, MarioKart 8 and Breath of the Wild on it. Breath of the Wild is pretty much a perfect game so far, and being able to play on the go is great. MK8 is polished to a fine sheen and worth playing. So far I'm digging the Switch a lot and see it as a replacement to my Vita for mobile gaming. The battery life isn't great so if you're traveling you'll need a portable charger if you want to play for longer than 2.5 hours.

I finally manged to snag a Nintendo Switch through online ordering on Walmart. I'll let you guys know how I like it when it arrives later this week.

Who is rocking webroot around here? Is it worth the money still?

We're kinda split on Sophos at the moment - our test boxes have produced "meh" results.

Entire environment is mcafee which I have almost nothing good to say about.

We just renewed Webroot for the 3rd year in a row. It's been great, easy administration, reasonably priced. The only issues I've had are with 2 or 3 developer machines that occasionally don't want to call home, but that's a result of our internally developed stuff. Kind of a PITA, but not really.

What do you use on your servers?

Webroot on everything. It has basically zero impact on performance.

Did you need to create profiles or anything to avoid it screwing with VM's or SQL?

There's a server default profile that works for most anything you'll be running on a server. You do need to install the agent on each VM - there's no hypervisor install option. If you run into any issues with it causing problems with a server application just talk to support and they'll help with the profile configuration and/or getting anything whitelisted.

@MattSpeller Yep - there's a non-profit discount, but actually the SpiceHead/ML discount is a better deal than that, although that page seems to have vanished for direct purchase. If you want a good sales contact, talk to Tim Sheahen [email protected] and he should be able to get you the best deal.

You rock - thank you mate

Sure thing! Tell Tim I said hi

I picked up Bayonetta, which recently got a PC release. What a fabulous game!

Bayonetta is great!

Hopefully the PC port will do well and lead to them doing the same for the sequel.
