Initial selection is only 23 games, not sure why they’re not just releasing everything.

It’s to keep people returning to the app by artificially boosting the amount of updates.

Either that or licensing issues, but I just wanna have my conspiracy theory.


Still the only handheld PC that doesn’t come with a dogshit OS and an abysmal battery life. The deck doesn’t do well despite its low specs and alternative OS, it does well because of them.



Raytracing/pathtracing gets a bad rap imo. It’s a really cool effect that, while costly, improves the scene dramatically. Really wish more companies were pushing it, because now that Nvidia has moved on to “AI” I’m worried that it’ll die out a bit.


According to the article, the venture capital firm that owned the studio shut the project down and laid off about a hundred employees as they were looking for a publisher.


Multi-core CPUs were still starting out to be fair, but they were definitely at least somewhat mainstream by the time of the 360/ps3. The 360 was tri-core, and was considered easier to develop for since all three of those cores shared resources. Meanwhile, the cell architecture is hard to develop for even by modern standards. As such, most games only made use of the PPE and left the SPE alone.


AI+

Absolutely not. This thing is going to perform horribly because half the processor die is dedicated to something nobody’s gonna use.

If this were a business laptop then I’d understand adding AI. But this is a gaming handheld, how the hell will this help?


So does that mean they’re gonna be selling the Amico without the intellivision branding?

Their mothers must be very proud.



Over the years roblox has morphed from funny virtual legos to an absolute capitalist hellscape with man-made horrors beyond comprehension.


The fact that people are making a huge stink to put it back in the game though is pretty telling


Streaming peaked when I could watch Beakman’s World on my wii without ads or bullshit.


I’ll never understand why they decided to call themselves Warner Bros Discovery. Would be like disney renaming themselves to “disney History Channel”


I always have film grain enabled. It provides some half decent dithering that helps mask color banding, especially noticeable on my low end monitor.


House flipper is a big one for me. Either that or minecraft.


That’s actually fair. I barely pay attention to AAA gaming to begin with, so most of these games just weren’t on my radar. I just thought “oh, Starfield was the big hyped flop of the year, of course there wasn’t much AAA competition”


Tbh that’s a low bar to pass. The newest CoD flopped pretty bad and Rockstar has been too busy with GTA6. Almost every other notable release was either a flop or a smaller studio or indie title.


No linux support. Actually, in the case of games like rocket league, they REMOVED linux support.


I literally never hear anything about hogwarts legacy except for how well it’s sold. None of my friends who are into the series ever even mention it. I realize all I really have to go off of is a personal anecdote, but I would not be surprised in the slightest if those numbers ended up being heavily inflated.

As for modern warfare, I’ve never played it and I’ve never been a fan of cod. I’m just surprised the series is still going, I thought people would be burnt out on it by now.


I’m sure all 3 apple arcade users will be thrilled to enjoy this exclusive experience.


Outside of all the drama around the game’s launch, I’ve heard nothing about hogwarts legacy, even from HP fans.


Not shape keys, but something more akin to Unity’s animation layers. This kinda stuff has been in games for a decade or so.


I played a bit of yuppie psycho a while ago. It’s pretty humorous, but doesn’t make any sacrifices on horror in doing so. Still need to beat it, but would recommend.


Yeah I was gonna say, this would be as simple as a Godot viewport texture or a Unity render texture.

Still, it’s stylistically really impressive. Looks really good.



The original is free and imo is way better.
