Nvidia does not care about the ISA of the CPU at all. They don’t make it after all. Also not clear how they would kill x86. If they leave the consumer GPU market they cede it to AMD and Intel.

Modders beware! Any patch we roll out can break the game if you have mods installed and this one is no exception. We recommend that only players with a clean installation opt-in to the slim version. As always, you mod the game at your own risk.

Huh. This game has anticheat. Do they want you modding or not? Also I was not aware there were mods.

The problem is dram prices right now are crazy so the price might get pushed up quite a bit

Still sad they turned it into an extraction shooter. The original looked more interesting

Guys it’s a joke. They just wanted to do a case mod.

Time for another playthrough I guess

Nintendo got one guy’s paychecks garnished for the rest of his life. So even if you have no money there is a lot to lose.

Really hope control 2 doesn’t have this problem

Same. I wanted to like the mechanic but the flashlight levels just feel grindy and repetitive. The rest of the game is beautiful. Control feels like you can recover from your mistakes more.

Did they really need to copy the font? There are small things they could have done to make this not so blatant.

If you own the original it’s only $10. Still not clear that it’s worth $10 though.

I remember at least one indie dev saying that they would prefer you pirate the game instead of using key resellers as they tend to cost the devs lots of time and money dealing with credit card fraud.

This probably violates California privacy protection laws. Which they will have to follow if they are in the US and have data on persons in California

The complaints about Wolfenstein becoming political really took the cake for me.

They kinda threaten to send you off to freedom camp if you disagree with them. The fascisim ain’t subtle.

I’m a bit concerned what happens when Gabe Newell dies

The official multiplayer servers even work right now. Unfortunately that seems to have killed the modded server playerbase.

The article doesn’t count the popups you get when you try to change your default browser

I hope the original stays up

While that is an interesting idea I suspect the actual reason is their efforts to get it FDA certified as a medical device (which still hasn’t happened). The current app makes it abundantly clear it is not currently certified and a third party app claiming otherwise might be a liability concern.

Not really sure curseforge is better. Its another of those sites with an sketchy bloaty overwolf launcher that makes you jump through hoops to load mods onto a server.

It’s concerningly hard to avoid overwolf in modding

So once a game stops selling it had better hope its player base dries up and stops reinstalling it? The way that is phrased makes it sound like you could net lose money over the long term if sales decline and people keep reinstalling it

Good luck getting the age ID system to reliably work. Particulary for telling apart people a day over 18 and a day under. Forget ethics and adversarial conditions where people fake photos. How is this supposed to even work in an ideal world where people don’t misrepresent themselves?

Also collecting children’s biometrics is likely illegal.

Here is a list of the chips on the saturn:

• 2x Hitachi SH-2 (main processor)
• 1x Hitachi SH-1 (CD-ROM controller)
• 1x Motorola 68EC000 (sound controller)
• 1x Yamaha YMF292 (a custom synthesizer chip)
• 1x VDP1 (custom graphics chip)
• 1x VDP2 (custom graphics chip)

The graphics system, the main processor, and the sound system have their own RAM. Additionally external RAM could be added as a card.

Basically all of these chips with the possible exception of the CD controller need to be emulated. Individually none of these are hard to emulate (although licensing might complicate that). Emulating all these chips plus the timing behaviors between them and their RAM is quite hard. Certain techniques can be used to make emulating the individual chips fast but many of these either break down or become significantly harder when you need them to interact with other systems with precise timing. Tight timing accuracy is likely important as some games for these platforms made a lot of assumptions about the hardware they would be running on and may also have exploited undefined or unexpected behavor on the system to increase performance.
