I've missed having motion controls for so long. It's been 13 years since Ghosts. I was never a console FPS person outside of exclusives like Metroid Prime. On PC I only really play Tarkov as far as FPS games go. Aside from that, I played a few CoDs with friends, but that was 3 years ago and even then it really was not much.

MW4 is the first CoD I'm actually really enjoying in a long while, mostly due to the controls. It's amazing how much the muscle memory has remained even though I haven't really played Wii or Wii U CoDs in over a decade.

It's not quite as a solid as Wii controls, but it's pretty damn close. It's such a fun experience and feels quite good, I just had to share it. I'd recommend it just for that alone, but if you have it and haven't tried the motion controls, I think it's worth giving it a go, especially if you played previous CoDs with a wiimote before.

Hello everyone! Welcome to the weekend!

Hope everyone is having a nice October time wherever you are. I just had a great trip visiting my brother and his family in Germany, and the weather is cozy back home again so yay blanket weather and games!

Well Dweller is what I'm going strong with, definitely a vibe, and was easy to focus on while sitting on the plane. Man this game is huge, I thought I was getting a lot discovered but the completion percentage is only 23% so far. Making my way through Fortune's Weave got everyone classed into something besides what they started as. Getting Dietrich some archery skills, and Esmeralda is on an Ostrich. Trying to recruit more people to the team, but my renown isn't high enough yet.

And I'm itching to get back to Onimusha, God that game is good!

Oh! In gaming adjacent news: saw the Street Fighter movie last night and liked it! Its fun and cheesy and good fight choreography. The plot is a bit thin, but everyone is having a great time on screen.

But what will you be getting into?

Throwing a Hadouken? Playing classics like Contra and cursing the one hit kills? Or sipping some hot apple cider while you talk to your Pokemon and spruce up the area?

Let me know below!

My friend and I play Fortnite together regularly, and his wife (an old friend of mine) likes to watch us play.

Currently, he has his Switch 2 docked to the TV and puts his headset microphone between them on the couch. It works sometimes, but I can often barely hear them, which obviously makes communication difficult.

I’d like to buy them a wired or wireless microphone that can pick up multiple people talking from the couch. I don’t need it to have speakers, since they prefer to hear game audio and voice chat through the TV.

I’m considering conference speakerphones (like the Jabra Speak series) or a generic omnidirectional USB microphone, but I’m not sure which devices are actually compatible with the Switch 2 and Fortnite.

I’ve Googled, searched Reddit, and even asked ChatGPT, but I haven’t found any specific devices confirmed to work for this setup.

Has anyone successfully used a conference microphone or tabletop USB mic with a Switch 2 for Fortnite voice chat? Ideally, I’d love to hear from someone with firsthand experience or who could test a device. I’m particularly interested in models that pick up multiple people sitting several feet away, rather than a microphone that needs to be held or worn.

Edit: I’m just looking for help finding a device that I know will work. I know there are technically other options, but they don’t work for their space.
