I agree 8K for VR would probably be nice, as even current headsets like the Quest and Rift S still feel like looking at a 720p screen from mere inches (I know, I have one). And video for VR needs a lot more pixels as the video data cover a lot more than what’s in your field of view. This is probably the only place…

Quite frankly, I’d love having a 144hz monitor (a friend of mine bought one some time ago and it’s so smooth it’s unreal). But anything above that I don’t think I’d see a difference. I mean, I can see the jump from 60 to 120/144, but from there to 240?

While I can definitely tell a difference, I understand your point completely. The same thing happens in almost any field, actually. Like, there’s always something that is technically “better”, but it comes a point where this doesn’t really matter anymore for most. Don’t get me wrong, some people CAN spot a difference,…

I agree the intro part of the game was definitely the best bit about it. And while I enjoyed playing the game in its entirety, I agree everything after that first section was kind of badly handled. I definitely can appreciate the idea that was behind the game in terms of story (even if I disliked what it leads to in…

That’s because your formatting was bad in the first place. ;)

You’d guess that in 2019, a time in which we can render incredible graphics on even modest portable devices, we’d have an option in practically every game to adjust font size for playing on anything from 6" portable screens to 80" TVs... But apparently, it seems software developers still haven’t cracked this yet...…

I wouldn’t say they were “way behind the times”, as I remember playing these before the original Game Boy actually got released, which was more or less what “portable gaming” was at the time.

It’s far less uglier than the PS5 (god, am I the only one out there thinking the PS5 is horribly fugly?) but then again, not sure this will even fit in my entertainment center, which is made to accomadate NORMAL pieces of equipment. You know, equipment that was actually thought to fit into entertainment centers?

Well, super happy about it as I loved the original (and the comic series), but if it’s an EGS exclusive, then I’ll just have to hope it’ll also come to other systems (consoles or mobile). But super happy about it nonetheless.

Personally I’ve always found it funny that people have issues with using different launchers to play games. Maybe it because I do it all the time and I don’t mind.

I was about to say something similar. Like, if being an EGS exclusive for a year means a game in early access spend a year there before being more fleshed out when it get released on Steam, I don’t really mind the “exclusivity”. I rarely (if ever) buy game in early access anyways...

I don’t want to sound like that super paranoid guy, but from the start, my thoughts were more like “what does a business that mostly lives on selling data has to gain from a gaming service”? Mostly anything Google does gathers data about us one way or another, which helps them build a “profile” for every one of us…

Well, as long as they’re not using the same definition of “remaster” as the one most of the music industry is using (meaning making it actually worse than the original), I don’t mind.

It’s a laptop, I’m not always working at the same place. Also, my home office is at the other end of the house, and it would be quite some work to get wires over there, trust me. Anything I can connect wired, I usually do.

It’s funny because reading your reply made me realize that we’re more or less in the same boat. With kids, family, job, responsibilities, we have less time to play games than we used to. I still do have time, but then, I also love watching some TV series, movies, and doing other hobbies of mine, like photography, in…

I feel ya. I had to completely reinstall my system when a Win10 update litterally NUKED my network stack from orbit. I’ve tried to fix the damn thing for two days straight with command line fixes and powershell stuff because reinstalling the drivers (even clean removals and reinstalls) didn’t work.. So apparently ther…

spend $700-1100 on phones, with 2 yrs cycles being somewhat typical for consumers

The PS3 was $600 here at release (Canada) and this was insane. If the PS5 is $500 in the US, with the current exchange rate, it’ll mean around $660. Add sales taxes, and this can go up to $760 (depending on province). Good luck selling that this side of the border.

A console needs to have its own games to survive.

Regarding the Witcher, I think it also depends on how you look at it. To me, there are much more chances of me finishing a long game if I can play it wherever and whenever I want to. Even if I have all consoles + a gaming PC, I wouldn’t embark on a game like the Witcher on those because I don’t have that much time at…
