  1. Dark Sector (2009) Is Free to Claim on Steam for a Limited Time

    I bought this game for $13 many many years ago cuz a friend enjoyed it, and then I never played it. Actually I think I played I tried to play it back then, but had issues getting it to run, and then just plain forgot about it. Isn't this game tied to the Warframe series?
  2. “Complete Sunset”: 2K Launcher Has Been Removed from All Games on Steam and the Epic Games Store

    We're talking about PC digital storefronts here, on one platform: PC (although at this point, each PC storefront can be considered it's own "platform", unfortunately). Also while PS4 and XB1 are based on the same AMD Jaguar SoC, and PS5 and XBSX are both Zen 2+RDNA2 machines, Switch with its...
  3. Tencent and Intel Partner to Develop 3D One Gaming Handheld Prototype Featuring an 11-Inch Screen and 3D Eye-Tracking Technology

    Would love to see how this compares to the New 3DS with it's eye-tracking glasses-free 3D. Bigger screen and more powerful hardware. But Nintendo had the games that made good use of the tech. I would love to see that kind of sh1t with handheld PCs. Looks like this device is gonna be the first...
  4. Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot Controller Launches for PC and Xbox with Rotating Thumbstick and Button Control Modules

    Ah okay, I knew I had heard about this before: https://www.thefpsreview.com/2024/10/29/turtle-beach-introduces-stealth-pivot-controller-for-pc-and-xbox-with-first-of-their-kind-rotating-thumbstick-and-button-modules/
  5. GameSir Launches Cyclone 2 Multi-Platform Wireless Controller with Mag-Res Technology, Micro-Switch Buttons, and Tri-Mode Connectivity

    I've been an explorer and dweller of the 3 corners of the video game universe (arcade, PC, home/handheld console) since the 80s (starting with 2nd-gen system Atari 2600 and arcades of the time), and I have never EVER heard of this brand before. So yeah, I call bullsh1t on them being a...
  6. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    I'm with you on pretty much all of your post, but some info: Xbox One (the 3rd Xbox, which was for the 8th console generation) and Xbox Series X|S (the 9th-gen Xboxes) run on Windows and use DirectX. Xbox One X (the higher model of the XB1) was closely developed along the DX12 specification...
  7. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    I'm with you 100% there. The problem is, this will almost never happen in the modern game industry, so long as consoles are still the lead development platform for the overwhelming majority of studios. And consoles have been on 8 cores for two generations now (and technically they only have...

  10. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    Ah, my apologies. Digital Foundry. I think I saw that they are getting their first patch out next week. No idea what fixes it contains. But you know the deal, the more you wait, the better the game turns out, and the more stable and polished it is. Cuz games don't ship finished. But I certainly...
  11. Sony Developing Handheld Console for PS5 Games to Rival Nintendo Switch and Microsoft’s Upcoming Xbox Portable, Sources Say

    So is this a successor to the PS Vita, with its own games as well as PS5 game support, or is this just a way to play PS5 games in a handheld form-factor without having to stream them?
  12. Web Browsers

    If you are on Windows, you can install right from the Windows Repository using the Windows Package Manager WinGet: Which is also the easiest way to keep the program updated: However, I have also tried the Windows 64-bit binaries multiple times, and they seem legit to me...
  13. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    DF pointed out that the game is very heavy on CPU. Also the game is missing sh1t the original game from 2007 had, including shadows from dynamic lights such as muzzle flash, flashlights, and fires. Yeah cuz while it looks smoother visually, the game is still running at the actual non-FrameGen...
  14. NVIDIA Warns of A Gaming GPU Shortage as It Prepares to Launch Its GeForce RTX 50 Series

    nVidia may warn of a GPU shortage, but I'm warning them of a cash shortage in my wallet and bank account. 5000-series GPUs may be hard for us to get, but my cash is gonna be very hard for them to get. The last two times I got an nVidia GPU, nVidia saw no cash from those purchases. I'd like to...
  15. Star Wars Outlaws: Wild Card Story Pack Out Now Alongside Title Update 1.4.0: “Our Fourth and Biggest Patch Yet”

    I think I'm too lazy to even bother to grab a "community demo" of this game.
  16. DLSS 3 Accelerates Performance In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl by 2.4X on GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs at 4K with All Settings Maxed

    Yeah I give them props for continuing to develop the game in the middle of real-life war. They were in Kyiv, and for a while they put development on hold indefinitely while some of their staff fled their homes or joined the Ukranian army. Then they moved development of the game over to Prague...
  17. Web Browsers

    What's handy is that a lot of browsers like Chrome, Edge, Epic Privacy Browser, Brave, Ungoogled Chromium and more are all based on Chromium. So they all benefit from updates to Chromium, and often you can have a similar experience between them, and use some (or all) of the same...
  18. Intel Core Ultra 9 285K & Ultra 5 245K CPU Review

    I am NOT a fan of big.LITTLE / hybrid architecture on x86 desktops. Intel please give us P-core only options!
  19. Web Browsers

    Firefox is still my daily driver (as it has been since the very first release), but my secondary browser these days is Ungoogled Chromium. I've also tried Edge, Brave, Epic Privacy Browser, Falkon, and probably one or two others I am forgetting. I had also used Pale Moon as a secondary browser...
