Been waiting a good long while for HL2 RTX to come out. I've been through HL2 a few times, and some years ago I was thinking it would soon be time for another playthrough. Then when I saw they were making an RT version, I said I would wait for that.
As of 1:15pm EST, my local Micro Center has 25 in stock. Newegg and Amazon have none. A friend of mine grabbed one from Newegg and said they sold out in 9 minutes. He also got one from Micro Center. He's gonna return the one he got from Newegg.
Exactly the same with me. Gameplay is the main ingredient that makes a video game a video game. Story, music, all that other stuff is all well and good, but if the gameplay is not there, then I'm not there. The gameplay has to be good enough to carry the whole game alone. Video games are active...
This @sshat is the worse thing to happen to Naughty Dog. I really miss the original Naughty Dog led by Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin, or even Naughty Dog 2.0 led by Evan Wells and Christophe Balestra. Basically Naughty Dog from the Crash Bandicoot, Jak & Daxter (still their best series), and...
I don't even see the 3rd-party sellers, they are invisible to me. If I don't see "shipped from and sold by" on Amazon then I don't buy. Sometimes I'll buy if from a known reputable company selling their own products through Amazon.
By the way, Crysis 1 and Warhead are $5 each on GOG again:

That's what I paid for my own GOG copies years ago.
It's still sad that none of the first party controllers from Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft have hall effect or TMR sensors. They had better f*ckin' fix that for the next generation. Cuz there are $30 controllers out there from 3rd-parties that have hall effect sticks.
I played the f*ck outta THPS 2 on Dreamcast, and THPS 3 on Gamecube. I used to spend a lot of time making custom skate parks. Haven't played any of the other games in the series (except for 1 briefly), and I haven't played any of the remakes.
That's good news. The less Neil Druckmann garbage is out there, the better. From Crash Bandicoot 2 to Uncharted 3, Naughty Dog had nothing but awesome games... until TLoU Part 1 came out.
The last time I used Skype was in the late 2000s or early 2010s at my QA software tester job. We used it to communicate within teams, across teams, and with clients. Never really cared for it. Won't be sad to see it gone. I never had the displeasure of using Teams.
Yeah clearly, woooow. I had no f*cking idea Monolith was like this now. I was mainly thinking about the days when people like Jace Hall were running the show.
My first one was a RatPadz GS, and then I got a RatPadz XT that I still use to this day. I still think the optical sensors of mice track the best on a RatPadz. Something about the pattern that's printed on the surface. I also have a fUnc Archtype 1030 that I've been using a lot since the mid...
A few years ago I replaced an old damaged anti-static mat I got from CompUSA in the 2000s with one of GN's modmats, and I've been pretty happy with it. Except for the extreeeeme smell of rubber that hasn't gone away in years, and which gives me a headache. Aside from that though, that sucka is...
Similar to the segmented vRAM issue on the GTX 970 (for which I not only got a partial refund on Amazon, but $20 or $30 from the class-action lawsuit).
"The idea is that those people may become fans of a particular franchise, and when a new game in that series comes out, they may be convinced to purchase a PlayStation." Uh no. We're just gonna continue to wait for more Sony games to come to PC. The whole point of why I want these games on PC is...
