Cyberpunk too.


I made a post about this a few weeks back, but there were like 5 or 6 games that were going to be released in early 2020, but eventually got pushed bank

Ori & The Blind Forest was set for Feb 11th (March 11 now)
Last of Us 2 was originally Feb 21st (May 29 now)
That Gods & Monsters game by Ubisoft was supposed to be Feb 25th (Q3/4 now)
Final Fantasy 7 was going to be March 3 (April 10 now)
Watch Dogs Legion was originally March 6 (Q3/4 now)
Cyberpunk was going to be April 16 (Sept 17 now)

There are probably more, but these are just the ones I can remember getting delays

How do you get Pokemon from Bank to Home?



Based on what I looked into a few weeks ago...
1)Subscribe to Pokemon Bank (free for the next month, otherwise $5/year), and put all your 3DS/older gen games into the bank via the Transporter app.
2)Subscribe to Pokemon Home ($3/1 month, $5/3month, $16/year), and transfer them over from the bank. Not having the games, I can't tell you where in the game you'll need to make the transfer, but here is the accompanying graphic

why not just search without quotes and plus signs? do you do this for other search engines? i just type what i want to search and aside from aesthetic differences i get pretty much the same results


If you are looking for something very specific, the quotation and plus (just quotation for google) do help. The Lara Croft example was a bad one, since it's rather short, but for longer strings, you'll find what you are looking for much easier. Also, as a related tip, use the subtraction sign to remove certain things things from appearing in your results.

Example 1: Shadow of the Tomb Raider pick up glitch vs Shadow of the Tomb Raider +"pick up" glitch
The first one's top result is how to get the lockpick, followed by just general glitches in the game. It doesn't show the specific result you are looking for until about 9 down. The second search, on the other hand, has the glitch in question as the top two results (followed by the lockpick, again for whatever reason, 3 down).
There are definitely better applications of this type of searching if you are looking for a specific problem with something like home repair.

Example 2: Dream Eaters vs Dream Eaters -"Kingdom Hearts"
One brings you to the wiki page of the creatures in Kingdom Hearts, the other, after excluding KH, brings you to the esports team by the same name

That, or +"Laura Croft". "Laura Croft" without any plus sign would potentially bring up all kinds of unrelated searches. It's weird

Switched to Bing recently just to get more points, and yeah it is weird. Doing "exact searches" with quotation marks feels broken for some reason. I was trying to find a character on a TV show and instead kept getting pictures of other people with completely different names.

Wow an actual TPS fan out in the wild. I've only gotten Nisha to 70, but I preferred playing that over BL2 last year. UVHM felt better, weapons didn't scale as bad, no slag, and I miss lasers.


There are threes of us!
Playing through with Jack, I definitely enjoyed my time with TPS more than 2 (played as Gaige). There was just something comforting with being rewarded for my bunny-hop style of playing, constantly raining death down from above. Not to mention Jack's skilltree lead to some pretty nice explosion synergy

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but Home and Bank are still two completely separate services, so if you want to transfer a pokemon from Sun/Moon into Sword/Shield, you'd need to pay for both, correct?

Sun/Moon > Bank ($5) > Home ($3-$16) > Sword/Shield?
