Idk about more lag, but fair point point about 1080p cap. My deck is 800p, it’s not really bothered me heh.

It does, I’ve had chromium to GFN setup as a non-steam game since basically day one. Native app would probably be more convenient though.

Any hints what kind of games they’re into? Racing, sports, shooters? My nephew mostly plays fortnite, he’s easy and happy with vbucks.

Played all these except mega knockdown and would highly recommend any of em. Great list.

Valve really needs to space the autumn sale better and stop attacking my wallet like this.

If narrative driven games aren’t your cup of tea there’s nothing wrong saying that, but writing off the extensive gameplay provided in naughty dog games is silly. I think your take would be better directed at something like Metal Gear Solid, that actually locks you in for hour long non-interactive cut scenes.

I recently played uncharted 4, can confirm there is a lot of interesting gameplay mixed with the mastercrafted, often interactive, cut scenes. It was an excellent experience by any measure and the game is nearing 10 years old.

I swear people are confusing naughty dog with another dev or something, their worst game is still more fun than 90% of other studio’s best.

Excited to see ND dipping into a new IP finally, it’s visually impressive but let’s see some gameplay.

This looks awesome, really exciting this team picked up Ninja Gaiden

I wish they didn’t feel this pressure to push forward the industry with EP3. Full Half Life 3, maybe, but I would have preferred a closing chapter with the tech and features available.

Breaks trophies too, unless Sony disables them when it’s used.

I’d really like Valve to take an official policy on post-release changes that break games, but for what it’s worth they have not given me any hassle with refunds in these scenarios.

This is a fantastic addition to the store page that I’m sure will cut down the number of refunds valve staff have to deal with. I wonder if publishers will complain about this transparency impacting their sales …

All the online/user created content was lost for all these games too, iirc. Sony took the servers down for maintenance and never brought them back. A decade of work, dusted.

You’re absolutely not alone. Someone just pointed at me from the depths of a pool. Actual creeps down my back, something I haven’t felt since silent hill 2

Edit- finished it in about 3 hours. Top notch sound design, high quality visuals, interesting and unsettling levels… it’s everything you expect. Chapter 1, 2, 5 get seriously high marks from me. Someone described it as a museum game though, and yeah - kind of is. Overall held my attention, I took lots of screenshots, and it made me feel something. Good game.

Wonderful water shader and lighting. They’re definitely capturing the vibe.

That sounds like a pretty nice PC to me. Probably not going to play everything on ultra, but neither do consoles.

Sweet, just in time for the pro. Fingers crossed the next revision doesn’t play games at all, just $1000 to pipe Morbius trailers to my TV. It’s all I ever wanted.

Prepare for disappointed, with how GTA5 performed, seems we’re lucky to have single player at all.

RX 6600 with a Ryzen 5 5500 should get you close enough with FSR.

You’ll need to define a budget for “really affordable”, but it’s going to be hard regardless to match the price performance of the deck. Is $700-$1000 affordable? That’s probably the ball park for a mid-tier prebuilt. You maybe be able to get lower with an Intel Arc option (HP has some of these at $600)

Sounds like I should start holding my payments in escrow, just in case the publisher decides to shut down their game less than 2 weeks after taking my money. Got it!

“Refunds for PlayStation Store and PlayStation Direct purchases may take 30-60 days to appear on your bank statement”

Why do companies do this? They can process millions of dollars of incoming payments instantly, but take up to 2 months to reverse? Give me a break.

Interactive audio, tile layer nodes and animation updates are all very awesome. Thank you so much Godot team

I’m reading this as Nintendo has enough original N64 and GC sticks to turn into toys but won’t sell the parts?? Ughhh this company.

Terry in smash, now street fighter. I love it.

Cyberpunk 2077 - despite all its flaws - is CDPR’s best game.

Brave and accurate.

Ehhh. the game is coming up on 8 years, it’s definitely time for engine upgrades. Also the majority of DLC is themed packs (ghostbusters, back to the future and the like) with scenery, a single ride, and a single coaster. I wouldn’t consider it half-finished.

Planet coaster is definitely the best for sandbox and customizing things. If you want to build a beautiful park and themed rides there’s nothing like it. Meanwhile Parkitect scratches the management/business side itch, I just need these devs to get together and combine their strengths haha.

I didn’t play any planet zoo, that’s promising to hear maybe we’ll get some improvements with this too.

Ooo this looks exciting. I still wish planet coaster had park management more in line with RCT, but the addition of waterpark rides is tempting.

You gotta be a real scumbag to rip off Kenney. What is wrong with people?

Awesome! Hope you enjoy it, they’re great machines. Only tip I have is take a few minutes to learn how to use steam input. Once you can craft your own context menus and input schemes, it unlocks a ton of potential. Take advantage of the gyro, touchpads and rear buttons. It totally changed how I play truck simulator, and I set up a custom scheme for city of heroes, tons of fun and very usable for an MMO.

64gb is only really worth it if you intended to immediately upgrade the drive. Shader cache and updates stay on the main memory even for games that are on an SD card, over time it will fill up. it’s worth going for the 512 for a seamless useable system. Just my 2c as a deck owner.

Ignore the thousands of employees we’ve laid off, we have AI that is going to QUADRUPLE our productivity. I’m talking AAAA-AAAA games here, folks. The best is yet to come, it’s going to be fantastic.

While I believe it should be standard to let players use locked characters in training, it’s also not standard. Full priced fighting games don’t even give access to all the characters these days, why expect f2p to be different?

The context is Kirby Air Ride, a racing spinoff. Not that it changes much, but it is fully 3D and a genre that can take advantage of surround sound.

This is fantastic news, he’s released so many high quality tutorials. Very happy he’s returned and love he’s focused on Godot. It’s past time for everyone to stop helping self serving corpos, they can go create their own supporting materials.

Oh damn those mobs look awesome can’t wait to setup my volcano lair

There’s toxic pve MMO guilds, people mostly just suck. That said I’ve never seen universal toxicity in SC like I experienced in something like LoL
