I bought my son a entry level gaming laptop back in 2018 for college. 4c/8t i5 8th gen, GTX 1650 4GB, NVME 2x8GB 2666. He still has it, only needed a new battery and repaste these last 8 years. The real value lies in the future proofing. Still powerful enough for daily driver and most games. I...

The uncanny valley and generic sameness does not appeal to my brain. I suppose the upside is this is the worst it will ever look, and it will keep getting better? While I appreciate graphics, if the gameplay hooks me, I quickly forget about them. I certainly don't play games like FO New Vegas...

A few of my favorites so far

This game is shaping up to be yet another big budget financial failure. They put 100s of millions into ads, marketing, and development. Already dropped from the peak players of less than 90K over a weekend, a terrible sign. Probably some refunds in there. Estimates are that is only a million...

I have been skipping around. Almost finished with playthroughs of Fallout 4, Red Dead Redemption, Shadow of Mordor. Just started another playthrough of Jedi Survivor, and my first ever playthrough of Shadow of the Tomb Raider. I played the other 2 to completion last year for the first time. It...

LMAO anyone still using those likely does not have money for a modern upgrade. Or if they do, they have been saving a loooong time. I want the valve hardware to do well because it is the first time it seems truly possible that millions of PC gamers could migrate away from microslop.

I had the Oculus Quest before Facebook bought them, would not have bought it otherwise. Then my wife won the Q2 in a contest and gave it to me. Talk about full on Metaverse, quite unsavory. Looking forward to ditching that ecosystem for the Frame. I'll also close out my Facebook account where I...

But don't worry guys. If the infinite money glitch ends, they will come back to us like a drunken ex looking for sport sex at 3 am. Maybe.

I listened to some of that MLID interview while cooking and cleaning. Guest said Intel people he talks to are unusually confident which is good news.

Su said their focus is enterprise. Won't be surprised if dates keep getting pushed back, products canceled, paper launches, etc. A real AMD flagship gaming card sounds great, but unlikely while there is still the infinite money glitch.

The former exec said PC ports were like printing money, quick money. Why give that up? My first guess is because releasing it for PC will be the same as releasing it for the next Xbox. And as this is probably a golden opportunity to help strangle out and end Xbox as a dedicated hardware device...

The entire sentence could be deleted, and not be missed.

And? Peter's article starts and ends with MP games. Skate, High Guard, and the abandoned GoW online game. Then ends with ARC Raiders and the upcoming, certain to flop. Horizon MP. Thanks for understanding the point. 🍻

Quoted for facts. Space Marine 2 ARC Raiders Battlefield 6 Elden Ring Black Myth Wukong BG3 Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Helldivers 2 Stellar Blade They all understood the assignment. All have sold well. Even with game pass sometimes in the mix.

Pedro with a thorough review.
