Is it me, or does the bungie halo games still look good? I realize they are technologically behind because of their age but they are still good to look at i thinks.




Ive been looking at ayn devices, the Thor is sick. Ive been pestering my wife about one lol, maybe it’ll show up on My birthday. I don’t have an arm device yet either so i need one for sure


Ive since replaced mine with a steam deck, which is amazing and very capable. I wouldn’t mind more power, but the form factor, and combo with a dock make it amazingly impressive.

Still, its much larger than gpd win was, would love a device that size again. I spent a whole paycheck on that thing, and would again if it was the same form factor.


I loved the gpd win, it was such a cool little device. It sadly wasnt quite powerful enough, i really wanted to game with it, but the tech just wasnt there yet.

If I still had it I would probably be able to get some serious milage out of it but I sold it like a year after buying it. I miss it.



Wait I thought that multiplied the modules. Wouldn’t that be ddr6?


From the finalists, I voted for mage arena, that game is cool af. Yelling fireball at 2 in the morning is great. Not for the neighbors tho.

I haven’t played blue prince but people keep telling me its amazing and innovative so based off sentiment I guess that probably should have won.

But based off personal playing experience i would say Peak, it really changed how I look at ruining friendships. Nothing is more innovative than force feeding a friend poison. /s

The category is ambiguous on what actually innovation is. Graphics? Mechanics? How much money spent making the game? Technically would be an innovation right? Its somewhat difficult to pin down so I do understand why people look at arc, but I disagree with choice personally.


I mostly agree with the list, except arc raiders. Love the game, but its only mildly innovative honestly. You could name a dozen games that innovated more. I guess popularity can do alot of heavy lifting.


I for the life of me cannot believe that a nsfw account is arguing with me about confidence while not giving an inkling of evidence themselves. You know nothing of AI “art” and it shows.

Here is a ps3 i generated from chatgpt just now, it details every single thing you stated. The prompt was: “Generate me a Playstation 3 pixel art image”

If you aren’t willing to give even an inkling of proof to your claims, or even try to show proof when talking about jpeg errors then you have no grounds to stand on.

You are defending ai art, weather you realize it or not.


I don’t understand you defending ai art, but here, the extremely obvious odd coloring texturing the surface of the ps1 would be enough for anyone to notice, but the generation error in the top is proof. This smudge line is where the ai failed on its final pass, likely to do with clipskip or whatever crap open ai uses as this is clearly open ai’s image model.

Why are you defending ai art so hard, what do you get from defending a massive cooperation?


Right… linear… this guy has never played dark urge.


Ps3 in chatgpt font,

Its very obvious for the ps1.


How tf does bg3 have Limited replayability? Im on my 9th run! Wtf kind of take is this? Put the meds down pal.


Its still pretty worth it. Would give it a shot regardless. Its not particularly long, so not much to loose


Oh wow, its amazing you’ve never played it yet. Go in blind. A life changing game.


Idk, id love to see it properly done from AAA. That would be a great way to prove you right or wrong.


That’s not all ea has to be, it can be more than that, all we have to do is make it look like more money can be made that way for AAA and we can have our cake and eat it too.


Early access might legitimately be the way to save the failing AAA market. You get a real chance to learn what players actually want, and how to appeal to them, while slotting your game into its proper niche.

I mean sure, there’s bound to be stinkers, there always is. But Early access would kinda rock for these games. “The game runs like shit, we don’t want to play it.” Then next month you get a dedicated patch for performance and begs get squashed faster and more efficiently. Imagine if they didn’t fuck around with borderlands 4 and released as an ea title. Could have worked.


They used them as placeholders, they may or may not have been stock ue5 assets, which is another problem altogether. But a few of them were left in game at release, presumably by accident since they were removed 5 days post launch. The game did release with AI assets, even if mistakenly.


I’d be worried if it didn’t run nethack!



Its a wonderful boomershooter. Not exactly like the other games, but the same heart is there.


No way. Postal 4 came out 3 or 4 years ago and was okay, and postal: brain damaged is great, it came out out in 2022. They can still work and be quite fun.



Pen, pineapple, apple, coffee.


True, but its ultimately the reason I like the game so much, so it is what it is.


What kind of system are you running it on? If its Linux there’s a community Installer that simplifies things.

If its windows… good luck. Their forums are cesspool of bad help.


As a long time player, its probably settings. Which isn’t your fault.

This shit is optimized like a snail in an f1 race, it just doesn’t work. Turning clouds up is actually a viable way to get the game to run well, its super cpu bound, so if you turn up some settings it offloads some of that work to the gpu, freeing up some fps.

In my experience it plays way better now, but SC is a cranky bitch and its a free flight, never played a free flight that plays well, usually because players who don’t know what they are doing clutter environments with busted ships, trash and more.




That’s some lore I didn’t know. Pirates and egos, an iconic duo.


I’ve used 3, one that turns the phone into a switch basically, an Xbox controller with a clip adapter, and a migoo I think the brand was basically an Xbox controller with a slot.

They all sucked. The switch one was too small for my hands, probably great for kids though. No software.

Xbox had the best compatibility but it was heavy af and awkward to hold.

Same with the migoo, but also never wanted to connect to android and when it did, most controller games failed to see it, even emulators hated it.

That’s why. Too many variables when you can just get a comfortable device dedicated to emulation.


Wait fitgirl is actually a female? Been using those repacks for a very long time. A legend among the scene.


Im not sure you understand how companies work. Which is okay you don’t have to. But Sony, a super company does not actually have a stake in 99% of the things it invests in. It throws money at stuff for a multitude of reasons then wipes it hands. The thing existing at a particular time helps them the money and stakes are irrelevant.

https://www.ign.com/articles/palworld-dev-signs-deal-with-sony-to-form-palworld-entertainment-and-expand-the-ip

Basically Sony wanted Palworld on Playstation and probably knew pocket pair would fight Nintendo, this gave them a chance to watch from the sidelines. Also Aniplex was a big part of this deal, unsure how much. Sony doesn’t own the ip, and cannot tell pocket pair what to do. These two things are literally mountains apart, since Sony cannot do anything with palworld.



Palworld is a AA game, they had outside funding ala Sony, they are not a full indie studio. They are in-between. This is well known.

Edit: This is also not equivalent at all. Have you seen Sony chip in on the Nintendo v palworld case? They don’t have a stake in it even remotely. Pocketpair stands by themselves, them getting funding by Sony is highly irrelevant.
