Man I love all-nighters. But you are 100% right, once you get to a certain point in life and have to maintain good sleep patterns those get shorter and shorter.

I bought Xenoverse 2 yesterday. Missed that one because it was released while I was rebuilding my house.

How do you like it? Its a mixed bag for me. I like the MMO part a little but fighting is not that fun IMO.

Wait so Valve has a Steam App for streaming games? That is awesome. It doesn't take much processing power to decode, its encoding that takes some horses.

I am a little concern about this though since they already have a hard time syncing up audio and latency issues on a box they have full control over.

I enjoy them too actually. I enjoy the peacefulness and lack of distractions, and the sense of accomplishment when it's over, plus being able to go to sleep in the morning while everyone else works. I used to love doing it particularly for my old company, because the effort meant something. But the older I get, the longer it takes to recover, and the long hours were getting too frequent with no overtime pay. The culture and morale changed a great deal over the 9 years I worked there, especially after my original boss left in 2016.

Same as Xenoverse 1, seems to be an exact copy of it with new characters from Super. And I figure, same as the first game, I'll get my $20 worth of fun and be done with it.

It's a fairly new app, only available on Samsung smart TVs as far as I know, and I'm not sure if all of them have it/perform the same. As I said, it seems to work really well once setup, but I haven't tested more than a couple of games (Witcher 3 and Xenoverse). The app supposedly only supports steam controllers at the moment, but I have had no issues with my wireless Xbox 360 controller.
