A Synology NAS would be a good shout if you don’t mind the self hosting and maintenance route. That said, I also have an Infomaniak kDrive setup for my cloud backup. With that I have my email, calendar, drive space and it even offers an office suite in the cloud.

It may not have all the bells and whistles you get with Microsoft Office but, for me, it certainly does the trick.

The first one is definately the best one in terms of the overall feel of the game and storyline. Both the 2nd and 3rd games are good and have elements of story continuation in them. On the 3rd one though, parts of the story did not keep me hooked and I did not feel invested in the character arch as much as the others. For me, great games, new and old, must have:

• A compelling storyline
• A believable or even relatable character arch
• Consistency throughout so the story flows

Graphics are not the most important thing in any way. I want to feel immersed.

Feel that went on a little tangent them but you get what I mean (hopefully).

I bought and finished the Mafia Trilogy a month ago. Forgot how good it was. I have since been playing Starfield so nothing else complete for a while I would think.

While I have loved the innovation of Sony over the years, this one is a little odd. If Sony had thought about this, they would have realised that most people these days already have a viable handheld device, a smartphone. Microsoft got that one right by making remote play work so well on most mobile devices with connection to a pad. I just feel Sony should have done the same.

That said, I get there are some benefits if you have a shared screen and cannot always get on your PS5 but is that worth the money? I am not too sure.

Still, this is the early days and Sony will likely have a bigger vision for it. I mean, being able to connect to any network and play games remotely would be a huge step.

A number of games over the years have had that. The only one I witnessed myself (and feel is was more the console release) was Halo. I attended a midnight launch and that was just crazy. I was also working for a retailer at the time of the original Modern Warfare launch which was pretty hectic. We had some people that had be queuing for nearly 7 hours.

Others have been the release of the Wii and the PlayStation 3 which I was also present for.

After the Xbox escapade, I vowed never to bother with those releases but just ended up working for a retailer where it was part of my job.

I did the classic, jump in at the deep end approach, and ended up with some distro hoping for a while. I then settled on Fedora.

Why? It did everything I wanted to do and did it well. I found some distro so easy to setup but harder to maintain, some really slick but problematic with updates and apps. Fedora, for me, just worked.

All that said, there are various factors to consider, including your hardware configuration. Some distro just happen to work better on some hardware specs, especially when considering your graphics.

I have a similar usage to you, covering a little bit of everything including gaming and dev and, so far, everything continues to work. So much so, I am thinking of switching my gaming rig over to Fedora in the coming weeks.

Wow… so many choices. Skyrim is a great shout.

I remember hearing the Halo soundtrack for the first time was incredible so feel I have to go with that.

Other worthy mentions:

• Street Fighter II
• Civilization (theme tune to be fair)
• Horizon
