I just thought I would let everybody know that I've noticed Halo Wars 2 "Ultimate Edition" is on sale in the Windows 10 app store (and probably Xbox Live as well, I don't have an Xbox though so I can't verify).  It includes Halo Wars 2, the season pass and a copy of the original "Halo Wars - Definitive Edition", so technically you get 2 full games plus a season pass for the $40.  I played the demo of this game a month or so ago and quite enjoyed what little I played of it.  The graphics were sharp, it ran great on my PC, audio quality was great, and the gameplay was not overwhelmingly complicated, being somebody who doesn't play a lot of RTS type games.  That being said, it has received a number of negative reviews, and when I was looking at it a month ago I decided to pick up Resident Evil 7 instead, and I'm glad I did because now Halo Wars 2 "Ultimate Edition" is on sale for cheaper than the "Standard Edition" was a month ago.

I don't own an Xbox or have XBL Gold, but I guess it might be good to keep an eye on the "Xbox Play Anywhere" game discounts like this one that work on PC.  Thanks!

    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
