I’ve already seen attempts to emulate the sub pixel BGR arrangement at 3x+ resolutions on mGBA, it is a very good attempt but because it is a very specific physical property of the low-resolution display the pixel density would need to be massive to convincingly pull it off.

I’m in agreement with you, and usually I’m the first to say “but you don’t get it”. Personally, I still use my GBA very frequently, so I have very little need for this console.

It’s my time to shine with the very nit-picky error in article about the Hematic Grenade:

I would have liked to have seen a mention for the battle system camera of the PS1 Final Fantasy games. The way the camera pans, cuts, tilts, zooms and swings in FF9's battles gives it a way more dramatic feel compared to the more static, functional cameras of FF7 (which had some motion, but almost no “cuts”).

Someone better not tell that guy about the Love Ball error - where the Love Ball gives a bonus chance to catch a Pokemon of the same gender in Gold/Silver/Crystal.

I have so much criticism against Makoto Shinkai, but his work has definitely improved and starting with The Garden of Words he started to actually lean on his style, rather than constantly try and emulate Studio Ghibli in a very shallow way (to the point of copying some animation compositions straight out of Ghibli…

Seems like a lot of people forget how hated Steam was for a good 3 or 4 years of its initial launch.

I can’t imagine why this wouldn’t work. The original Borderlands (and I think 2?) used Steam match making, I imagine the Epic game store will use an Epic service for match making - but there’s no reason why on Gearbox’s end the friends lists of these two systems can’t interact, particularly when the Epic launcher can…

After reading this article the one thing I am left feeling is: If I worked on Anthem I’d be pretty fucking proud of the game that launched. With such a development cycle, with so much going against them here, what they produced is pretty amazing. To anyone who worked on Anthem; you did incredibly well to get this game…

Actually one thing I want to say that I think people need clarifying on is that games do come under the genre of “art” and they don’t have an obligation to be accessible, however that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t raise awareness for it and encourage game developers to consider accessibility for their games.

The cheat options easy-mode in the ports of Final Fantasy 7 and 9 ruin those games for me somewhat. All the time I invest in the game is completely devalued when I know I can just hit one easy built-in, Square Enix authorised button (that they expect me to press) and all that hard work was for nothing.

I still think about this one

I watch these videos. What it reminds me of is the old UK TV show “Creature Comforts”, but with way more truth and emotion behind the interviews.

They don’t have the original files for VII or VIII, what they have from VII was the PC version with its debug symbols left in (because lol) and a massive fan-base making the cost of re-building the FFVII run-time from the ground-up worth while.

Apex Legends’ zero marketing (before launch) vs BFV and Anthem.

The point probably shouldn’t be to get more games running, but to explore and document the porting process and the technicalities involved with this project for the homebrew scene.

More annoying than Top15s? I don’t think I have the right to complain about annoying voices after listening to a Top15s video...Who apparently seeks voice over work...

Plus that Assassin’s Creed bug is a bug. Those games are infamous for their character-related bugs. Looks like a background character managed to walk their way into the foreground before they got swapped out for a foreground character. Notice how they are rendered behind the foreground characters, suggestions this…

I was about to write that I’m glad this video didn’t focus on developer crap left in levels that so many of these videos obsess over, but then that last Mass Effect 3 one ruined that.

Whilst very likely true for VII and VIII, there’s no information or evidence that source was lost for IX (and indeed, your claim here is the first I’ve seen of anyone).
