Not at all. It takes 3 strikes till you're out. And your runs for the inning still count . So does every other thing you score, you keep in every sport alive.

Unless you're playing Sorry. Which is not a sport. And for which there are no points.

The game still ends and then you don't carry over points to the next game.

Downloaded Tetris Effect on GamePass last night and was mesmerized by it for two hours. Didn’t expect that.

Picked up where I left off (guessing about halfway through) Shadow of the Colossus last night.. man what a great experience, aside from some subtle controlling and camera issues.. looking forward to playing more this weekend, hopefully finishing it, as I await Blue Point's newest remake, Demon's Souls' arrival Monday

I tried to enjoy this game for a few hours a while back, and found the controls completely dysfunctional. Made me delete it from my hard drive. Shame.
Once I got the hang of the controls, I liked them. They're different than any other game I've played, you just have to adjust. You're missing out pal.

I finished it. A very memorable, unique experience, but kind of shallow overall. I’m glad I played it all the way through but doubt I will revisit it. 6.8/10.

Astro’s Playroom. It’s definitely a love letter to the 25ish years of the PlayStation. Trying to identify all of the references has been a fun trip down memory lane.

Watch Dogs Legion is getting better now that I understand a little more. Didn’t hit me as quick as the first two. Looks beautiful in 4K with the Ray Tracing.

I'm still working on Gravity Rush 2 for PS4. I beat Fire Emblem: Conquest while I was waiting for XSX updates to download (by far the hardest Fire Emblem that I've played).
