Everyone remember how janky and ugly the OG XBox was? The controller that was too big for anyone but Andre the Giant?

Wait. UE is an engine. A game should use an engine, not the other way around. What am I missing here?

Anyone know where I can actually get my hands on a B580 for non-scalped prices? I’ve been monitoring multiple sites for months and either it hasn’t come up or get snatched up in minutes

Only reason I’m replaying single player is they released the Enhanced Edition for free on Steam if you already owned it.

“You got a 1kW PSU for your rig? Nah, just for the proc”

I know these aren’t for home, but in the US/Japan/Canada/Mexico you’re gonna start seeing the need for dedicated breakers. A lot of apartments skimped and put in 10-15 amp breakers, which can (safely) support 960-1440 watts. A 20 amp breaker can do 1,900 watts at least, but again that’s usually for an entire room. Not just a single device.

Edit: added a few more countries that use 110/120V to illustrate it’s not just a US issue.

So I know nothing about the games but each are set in the same world and right next to each other? Do they take place in the same timeframe?

Reminds me a bit of RDR1 and RDR2

I’ve seen an error that said “how in the world did you get this? It shouldn’t be possible”

I have a 360 controller and Microsoft offers a USB wireless dongle that lets me hook up any standard 360 controller. It pretty much works like it of the box with any game.

That last one isn’t entirely true. I have a portable monitor that does DP-Alt over USB-C and it is powered and driven via a single cable.

Right where my mind went

DP is royalty free. Why are they looking for “yet another standard”

That’s where I’m having trouble justifying it. I don’t really care for or do any handheld gaming, and if I was gonna leave it docked, why not just use my PC? If I want it on my TV I still have a Steam Link too. Glad to see it’s being shown as a viable platform, I just haven’t found a use case for it in my world.

How do you like the toppings on your pizza?

FF games are like pizza. They’re all a round, baked dish, but you can have them so many ways and everyone will have their opinions. For example

• I thought 10 was linear and boring and only played it once
• I really liked 10-2 and the entire dress sphere concept as well as being open to go where you wanted.
• I absolutely loved 12, as it had amazing lore and call backs to literally every other FF game in the series. A lot of people hated on the battle system but the magic of the strategy was figuring out the best gambit combinations
• 13 had a beautiful story and graphics, but was way too linear and then suddenly opened up in the end game. Would have made a better movie or visual novel
• 13-2 is one of my all time favorites in how it was non-linear, expanded on what happened with the 13 cast, who I liked, and also had secret endings
• 13-3 is good, but it becomes one massive fetch quest. However it has New Game+ which is perfect for curb stomping baddies
• 15 was one I thought I wasn’t going to like (an FF with cell phones?!) but oddly they pulled it off well and it wasn’t too bad. The villain was frankly one of the best in any FF series. Voice acting was top notch and the DLC really fleshed it out (you could argue it should have been part of the core)
• Playing 16 right now, and hopes it was Square returning to its roots, but frankly…… it’s not an FF. The pacing is all over the place, and they randomly throw in an FF theme or name in a way like it’s saying “see! We’re a final fantasy game!” This is the first game that I really thought they lost their way on

I haven’t played 11 and 14 but I figured that’s my $0.02 when everyone has their own favorite toppings.

Okay so the “S” models stood for “Super” which was a slight step up from the base. What are “D” models? “Duper”?

Did they seriously get asked to prove a negative?

The “parents” released two games called “Dead or Alive: Extreme Beach Volleyball” (1 and 2) where they were in skimpy swimsuits and they literally had a team of developers that focused on “jiggle physics” to make sure their breasts bounced as accurately as possible. Nice way to treat your “daughters”.

On a side note, content aside, those were actually good games and it wasn’t like they were going pure ecchi, the volleyball portion and side games worked pretty well.

So if I understand it correctly, DLSS uses some sort of ML to interpolate the extra frames. Isn’t that like the “smooth motion” options on TVs that let you get 240Hz from a 24fps movie?

That’s a bit disingenuous of a headline. They compared a prototype to an inservice production speed. As stated, other prototypes have exceeded 500km/h. Now if this goes into service it’ll hold the record there.

$50? So it was almost the price of another new game for what? A few more characters?

Isn’t it still stealth if no one is alive to report it?

This is the sexism that we saw come out during the election. We thought the country was getting better but they were just quietly simmering but connecting online.

I said that with an American slanted focus but sadly it’s worldwide too.

you can’t really blame the manufacturers for this, either. They can’t reasonably continue maintaining software for their products for an indefinite period of time.

Shh, anytime I say this about Windows I get people coming out of the woodwork that say Windows 7 should be supported 15 years later.

Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy 6

Online is unplayable for the reasons posted but I’m more pissed they scuttled the single player DLC to focus on online instead.

So this looks more like an upscale than a remaster? I was hoping they’d use the RDR2 engine for it since a chunk of New Austin was there already.

Say anything nice about Windows, or hell, anything about Windows period and they’ll come out of the woodwork.

We don’t want them to win either. The comment was a glib remark that usually people who go in without a lawyer get the book thrown at them. If so, a perfectly plausible outcome is actually being sentenced to jail. If so, that could look very bad for Nintendo. It’s all just hypothetical extrapolation.

I played the original and it was such a trip that I bought Plus when it came out, but haven’t gotten around to playing it because I know the twist and it doesn’t hold the same.

Yeah no. You hit the “it’s just a joke bro!” phase. You meant things prior to getting called out and downvoted to hell.

“Wow, Nintendo, way to go, sentencing someone to hard time in prison for trying to enjoy your games in new and unique ways. Is this what you stand for?”

That’s one thing I do like about iOS, there’s a secrets manager API and you can use their default keychain, or a 3rd party app like bitwarden and they all interface the same.

I’d be good if it was a game set in the universe where you’re a bender but not one of the main cast. For example if you’re in the fire nation you’re in the military and may have run ins with them. Same with the other tribes. You could do unique situations for each element and not be tied to the main characters

I use a 4K TV that’s 43”, but I like to run games at 1440p native (I.e 1:1 pixels, no stretching) when I measured it out it was the same as a 27” monitor which I thought was perfect.

Ah that makes sense i read “at Steam” as the company, not “at Steam” as users who use the platform.

Maybe I’m missing something, but what does Steam care? All it is is another game they’ll get some additional revenue on. It’s not like they’re betting the farm on it.

“Family I like talking to”

“Family I deal with”

“Family I’m obligated to talk to”

And then let them fight out who renamed the group if they miss the notification.
