  1. PC Gamers Make Less Money than Console Players When They Grow Up, Survey Reveals

    Being an exception to the rule yourself doesn't necessarily preclude the possibility that a data point is generally accurate. I make more than most people who don't have a high school or college degree. I don't even have my (G)ood (E)nough (D)ummy. I work in a technical field despite having no...
  2. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Won’t Be Significantly More Expensive than RTX 4090, It’s Claimed

    I've never cared about power consumption on a desktop part. As long as I can keep it cool enough to maintain reliability I'm happy. As for the price, I don't really expect it to be that much if any more than the RTX 4090 was.
  3. Piracy Causes a 20% Drop in Game Revenue, Denuvo DRM Research Finds

    Organic and natural diversity is NOT DEI. Let's make that abundantly clear. The 1987 film Predator stars an extremely diverse cast of characters. No one had a problem with that. In the setting and context of the film the diversity was organic. It also didn't matter if the cast belonged to one...
  4. GeForce 256: NVIDIA Marks 25th Anniversary of “World’s First GPU” with Celebratory Video, Green Popcorn, and More

    The Riva TNT2 Utra's were knocking 3DFX around before the GeForce became a thing.
  5. Secret Level: Amazon’s New Adult-Animated Video Game Anthology Series Features Arnold Schwarzenegger, Keanu Reeves, and More

    That likely cost a fortune but they were sure Concord had "Star Wars level potential" when they invested in that crap.
  6. Piracy Causes a 20% Drop in Game Revenue, Denuvo DRM Research Finds

    Well there is a lot more that's come into play than DEI. The short version is that the games industry has effectively ended up mirroring Hollywood in a number of ways. Sure, the DEI crap is one of the biggest issues that's plaguing them but before that they had what I call MCU syndrome. After...
  7. Piracy Causes a 20% Drop in Game Revenue, Denuvo DRM Research Finds

    Agreed. I think they believe a pirated install is a lost sale and I don't think that's often the case. If you are interested in the game and can't afford it, you pirate it so you can play it. If you aren't interested in the game you aren't going to install it either way. Take Concord for...
  8. Ubisoft Is Reportedly in Negotiations With Epic Games Parent Company Tencent For A Buyout Deal

    Tencent can't do any worse with the Ubisoft IPs than Ubisoft has been doing for the last half-decade or so.
  9. Starfield Design Director Says Sci-Fi RPG Is Bethesda’s “Best Game Ever Made” as Shattered Space Expansion Drops to Mostly Negative Rating on...

    It just shows you how out of Touch ReTodd and his gang are. Interviews with him showcase this point and how little Bethesda understands their audience. Case in point, they added a vehicle to shorten travel times to POI's but the game still wasn't designed for it and the physics of it are worse...
  10. Cyberpunk 2077 Has Tarnished CD PROJEKT RED’s Reputation Forever, Joint-CEO Believes

    1.3 was an improvement over the original release version but still felt very much like an alpha version of the game. It still had many unfinished systems, items, etc. 1.5+ felt like the game was at least in beta and 2.0/Phantom Liberty actually was closer to what we should have had when the game...
  11. Most Gamers Prefer Single-Player Games, New Research Reveals

    I got it for my Birthday and I've only played it with friends. I don't really enjoy it enough on its own, but with people I regularly play games with its an enjoyable experience.
  12. NVIDIA App Beta Adds G-SYNC Controls, RTX HDR Multi-Monitor Support, and More

    I just tried it for the first time yesterday and I completely agree. I'm not sure why NVIDIA didn't just update their driver control panel and call it good, but its dated as hell and the app is much better than GeForce Experience. Unfortunately, it's kind of clunky and the overlay can cause...
  13. Microsoft Wants to Know Why Some Developers Aren’t Interested in Xbox

    It is my understanding that developing games for the XBOX platform is rather difficult. If that's the case, it probably comes down to the tools that Microsoft gives developers to create titles for their platform that suck. The platform may also have certain limitations compared to the PS4/5, I...
  14. Most Gamers Prefer Single-Player Games, New Research Reveals

    They can overlap but usually don't. Single player games are story driven games like the Mass Effect series or Jedi Fallen Order / Survivor games where there is no multiplayer component. (Mass Effect 3's MP not withstanding.) Online PVE would be Destiny 2's non-PvP modes or something like...
  15. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Season 3 Debuts to 282 Players on Steam

    That's what happens when your new playable character and focus of your new content is another unlikeable girl boss character that's better than her male counterpart / predecessor in every way. She's also not a character that anyone's really heard of. I hadn't heard of her until I saw the trailer...
  16. “Disaster”: Star Wars Outlaws Has Only Sold 1 Million Copies Worldwide, It’s Claimed

    It have been better if it had been a reskin of Assassin's Creed and say Ghost Recon Wildlands. Star Wars Outlaws literally takes elements from all Ubisoft's most popular games and executes them with that Wish.com and Temu type quality those sites are known for.
  17. Cyberpunk 2077 Has Tarnished CD PROJEKT RED’s Reputation Forever, Joint-CEO Believes

    It really was. The thing is, Cyberpunk 2077 was a fun game at its core with a lot of the basic systems in the game being solid enough to be enjoyable. However, the game was unfinished. Basic physics were incomplete. None of the promised reputation systems were in the game and still aren't. There...
  18. “Starborn”: Rumors of Starfield’s Next Expansion Surface as Shattered Space Launches to Mixed Reviews on Steam

    They need to make the characters in Constellation be more than just blocks of wood cut from the same tree. They need to add new weapons, new armors, suits, clothing, locations and ships. You know, things the latest expansion didn't do.
  19. “Choose Your Next Cooler Wisely”: LGA 1851 Socket for Intel Arrow Lake CPUs Will Feature a Different Hotspot

    Not terrible surprising. I mean, we experienced this with the transition to LGA 1700. Sure, waterblocks and higher end coolers would get the job done they weren't ideal. Coolers properly designed for LGA 1700 definitely make a difference.
