    Square Enix Celebrates the Launch of FFVII REBIRTH on PC with New Artwork and a Breakdown of the Latest Features, Including Enhanced Lighting and T...

    I don't care for this IP (or the company), I don't play these games, but I understand how the series is set up. Each game with a roman numeral is standalone. They don't have anything to do with the other ones. They are not sequels to each other, they are not even related to each other. So FF7...

    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Will Perform Similarly to Ryzen 7 9800X3D in Games, According to AMD Exec

    Makes sense, cuz each CCD only has 6 active cores on the 12-core parts. So basically that's a 6-core X3D against an 8-core X3D.

    Sony to End Production of Blu-ray Disc Media, MiniDisc for Recording, and More in February: “There Will Be No Successor Models”

    I've done the same with some shows/series I own on DVD. I like having the discs, but for actually watching, I just load up the DVD rips. Convenient to have all the episodes together on a hard drive. I don't have to swap discs after a few episodes. Not to mention the loading is much faster. When...

    Sony to End Production of Blu-ray Disc Media, MiniDisc for Recording, and More in February: “There Will Be No Successor Models”

    Not me. Can't stand streaming. When it comes to movies I always do BD rips. I would actually buy BDs if they had more affordable prices (I do own a few, usually bought at deep discount). I have a BD burner but have never burned a disc. There's no need for it. Not in this age of super-large...

    DOOM: The Dark Ages Will Be the “Most Ambitious DOOM Game to Date” When Prequel Launches for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox App for Windows PC, Steam, P...

    id Software talks about the game here: So looks like the focus this time is on power over acrobatics. Hugo Martin said in Doom Eternal you were a fighter jet, but in this game game you're an iron tank. A balance between enemy projectiles and player movement that hearkens back to Doom 1 and 2...

    Sony to End Production of Blu-ray Disc Media, MiniDisc for Recording, and More in February: “There Will Be No Successor Models”

    Do they just mean blank blu-rays? Or will all BDs stop being manufactured, including the ones that movies and games come on from the factories? I had NO IDEA that MiniDisc was still being made! Way back in the late 90s I used a MiniDisc walkman/recorder. I still have a lot of unopened discs...

    SilverStone Revives a Classic with the FLP01, a Retro-Inspired HTPC Chassis That Takes Cues from a 1982 Japanese PC

    From an article a friend shared me with back in November (https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/pc-cases/retro-beige-pc-case-goes-from-april-fools-joke-to-retail-silverstones-sleeper-pc-with-modern-internals-ships-in-q1-2025): "...the front has a couple of faux 5.25-inch floppy drives to...

    Marvel’s Wolverine and Marvel’s Spider-Man Developer Teases What’s Next as Insomniac Co-Founder Announces His Retirement from PlayStation Aft...

    I can't believe Ted Price is retiring, woooooooooooooooooooow!!! I seem to recall that at one time his company kept getting on the list of best game dev companies to work at year after year. I'm not sure if there is a game developer who treated their employees better than he did, minimized...

    Nintendo Switch 2 May Be Released as Early as April, RoboCop and Test Drive Publisher Reveals

    The Switch couldn't match the 8th-gen consoles (PS4 and XB1), but it was at least more powerful than the 7th-gen ones (Xbox 360 and PS3, and I count Wii U although technically it's an 8th-gen console). I know Switch 2 won't match up to PS5 and XBSX, but it should hopefully be better than PS4 and...

    LUNAR Remastered Collection Launches for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on April 18 with Modern Enhancements, Including HD Pixel and

    Never played the Sega CD originals of Lunar 1 and 2, but I own the special editions of the remasters on PS1, and both games were f*cking awesome. But I stopped playing JRPGs a very loooooooong time ago, and I don't think I have the patience for them anymore, even the old-school ones. Still might...

    Over 80% of Players on GeForce RTX GPUs Activate DLSS for Boosting Performance in Games, NVIDIA Reveals

    I almost never use DLSS. I only use it when I absolutely can't get decent performance in a game. The only time I've really had to do that was Portal RTX, which ran like @ss on my 3090, and only the crappiest-looking DLSS Ultra Performance mode got me to playable framerates. Now to be fair, my...

    FPGA or emulation? And if FPGA, Kevtriss is the man for the job. He already did both systems already, in the form of Analogue Super Nt and Mega Sg.
