Oh shiiiat, woooow, no kidding!

The 3 audio cables plugged into my sound card (front channel, rear channel, and center/subwoofer channels) travel about a foot and a half away to the subwoofer that is part of my 5.1 speaker system. This is all under my desk. Most of the wires going from the subwoofer to the satellites are...

Analog sticks that use hall effect sensors, or better yet TMR sensors, are more precise and accurate, but more importantly they don't suffer from the same flaws like drift, which is a big problem with the Switch 1 joy-cons (and Sony controllers too, maybe Microsoft controllers as well). You can...

Oh gawd, please don't remind me about Aureal A3D, I'm still pissed about that. Also upset I can't find my Vortex 2 sound card. It's somewhere in my parents' house, has to be. I wish to look upon it again. I still have access to DirectSound 3D hardware-acceleration via ALchemy (which takes...

If you wanna compare Switch 2 to PC, then compare to the Steam Deck, a system of similar power whose lowest SKU is cheaper than the Switch 2, and whose games are on the whole vastly cheaper, especially when factoring in the constant and deep sales I mentioned earlier. Not to mention the Steam...

$50 was bad. $60 was very troublesome. The new standard $70 price for 9th-gen games was absolutely insane. Now we are seeing $80 for games for a system that is 8th-gen in terms of power! This is absolutely ridiculous! But I never buy games at launch or at full price anyways. The problem with...

A friend showed me this: https://kotaku.com/nintendo-switch-2-pre-order-requirements-store-online-1851774277 "Right now, if you want to purchase a Switch 2 through Nintendo in the U.S., you have to register interest on the company’s website for either the standard $450 system or the $500 Mario...

Enter the Gungeon and Wizard of Legend are two others that I remembered trying, and yeah I couldn't get into those either.

I don't usually watch these kinds of things live, but I did this time. The video in the stream lagged behind the audio, and at one point the video just plain stopped working. $450 is a tough sell when base PS5 without disc drive is $400, and XBSS is $300 and is probably still more powerful than...

The last time I rolled into Micro Center not too long ago (before 9070 launch), there were plenty of 5070 and 5070 Tis on the shelves. Some employees said there were a decent amount of 5090s and some 5080s in the back room, but none of them are selling because their prices are all insane.

I recently got access to the game through Steam Family library sharing, which I'm pretty happy about. Between what @Peter_Brosdahl and another friend have said about the game, I'm looking forward to getting around to it, which I plan to do sometime this year. I got other games ahead of it in the...

I have it installed but haven't even gotten around to updating the GPU drivers to try it out.
