Destiny Playthrough BEGINS NOW


The day is finally here.  Grab your beer, pizza, popcorn and whatever else you need to follow along with Station 1621's live playthrough on our Twitch Channel.  The stream "should" be high quality.  If its not, I'm sorry.  Internet can be scarce around these parts sometimes.

And most appropriately,

See you starside.

UPDATE #1:

Technical difficulties.  Bungie's servers are going haywire.

UPDATE #2:

After what I believe to be both problems on Bungie's end and mine, we will tentatively be back up and running at Noon today.  Once again go to our Twitch Channel to watch me play terribly play an Exo Warlock as I progress through the different zones.  Also I will sum up my thoughts each day in a post for those who are either looking to buy the game or even make the jump to Xbox One for the game.

See you starside this afternoon (hopefully).

UPDATE #3:

Receiving the "marionberry" error once again this afternoon despite being able to play this morning.  It seems to me that my connection (wired, mind you) is having difficulty with Bungie's servers.  I have no idea why the connection would work for an hour flawlessly and then not work the next.  If you have any thoughts please post away in the comments section.

Homeworld Remastered



A timeless classic cherished here at the Station, Relic's Homeworld series is being remastered after Gearbox's acquisition early this year.  Company executives have gone on record saying this will not simply be a re-release of the series but rather a complete overhaul of the first two games.  The game will run in UHD with remastered audio and visuals throughout.  When Homeworld was first released, the game took the PC world by storm with some of the most innovative graphics for its time.  In addition, the art used to during the game's cinematic scenes was worthy of being placed in a museum.  Station Operators hope you have the time to check the series out and explore one of the best games ever made.  Below is Polygon's Jenna Pitcher's story on Gearbox's acquisition of Homeworld from the fallout of THQ.  Its a great read.
