So, seven days from now it looks like I will be able to play Panzer Dragoon Orta, upscaled, on my purchased-for-a-song Xbox One S.  Moreover, if they follow their normal pattern, everyone NOT lucky enough to still have a disc kicking around will be able to buy it from the Xbox Marketplace, probably for $9.99 or equivalent in local currency.

Heh. Upscaled.  It’s a game about a dragon.  Never has “upscaled” been more appropriate.

I have to say, I was not impressed with circa-2013 Microsoft.  They really seemed to have gone wildly off-track chasing the Kinect and media audience.  This new Microsoft?  I think I’m really starting to become a fan.

Now, back to Halo: Reach.  I really wasn’t clicking with this game to start, but I discovered the most important thing ever and now I’m doing OK.
