It’s not “decades” old but Xbox One had a screen recording feature that I used a few times.to save fun clips.
One time, I was playing AC: Odyssey and attacking a fort. Some general guy noticed me and followed me back to the edge of a cliff where I just went over the side. This motherfucker just hops off the edge and I watch him fall all the way down and slam into the rocks below. It was hilarious.
Halo Wars honestly just works imo. Both games. Like honestly on paper, everything about it sounds like it’d be a hit. And it kinda was; I feel like a lot of people ignored it because it wasn’t a mainline Halo game. I know I did for a few years until I got a chance to play it, and loved it.
