I’m not that guy, but I don’t think so. The trend will likely be that we get to the point where we render and display in such a high resolution that you can’t even see pixels anymore. We’re getting there already with smaller 4k displays where turning on AA doesn’t have an appreciable difference in 4k native rendering.


Considering they learned nothing from their mistakes with Global Agenda and went on to fuck up Ascend, I’m expecting them to fuck this up in new and exciting ways all over again.




When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn’t wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.


For a second there I felt called out, but my gas guzzling burnout truck is from the 90s 👍


Well cool, about time. If they put offline mode in it’ll finally make sense to put it on my Steam deck. Been wanting to play it portable since I got the deck but always use it away from home and setting up a hotspot connection to play an ARPG solo isn’t great.


So… the force engine with Remastered cutscenes? Hopefully this remaster is like the Quake II one and just comes as a free patch.



Phantasy Star Online (PSO). I have thousands of hours in that game across Dreamcast, GameCube and PC over the decades and I’m still not tired of it. It absolutely nailed the loot system and you’re always looking to get another rare box drop. BlueBurst on PC still has multiple active and populated servers, but I feel like it doesn’t get much discussion in gaming communities in general despite being one of the pioneers of online gaming on consoles.


Hell yeah it does. I just replayed it on my Steam Deck the other day after previously playing it on PS2 and PSP. My favorite rhythm game by far.


I’m not that guy, but I find my set up to be very comfortable and immersive. I use a Quest 2 with a VRCover full facial interface, an elite battery strap, a pair of good IEMs and a set of widmo prescription lens inserts, playing mostly PCVR titles wirelessly via Virtual Desktop. The battery counter balances the weight of the headset, and there’s no wire to step on and pull me out of the game.

I used PSVR and a Rift S previously and this set up is much better.
