No idea - I haven't fired up RA2 yet; though it WOULD be nice.  Still, I kinda doubt it (since Generals and ZH don't support 1080p, and they are newer than RA2).

You can edit the RA2.INI file to use custom resolution that didn't existed back in the early 2000s

Need for Speed - Most Wanted now free On The House... Grab it..

Second trip through for MW - I grabbed it last year during a previous OTH stint.

 

That is also why HP 2010 is conspicuous by it NOT being offered.

I get that message when I have Adguard enabled. Just disable protection for a few seconds to load the page or go to the page via the actual Origin client.

A new Trial and a new On The House both drop today - Star Wars Battlefront (Trial) and Battlefield 4 Dragon's Teeth (On the House).  Looks like my weekend is going to be Real Busy.

Nox™ is fast faced action, set in a land filled with discovery and deceit.

An excellent action/RPG hybrid with very unique gameplay. Your name is Jack Mower, a 20th century dude who just happened to be sucked into the world...

Nox was a very good and fun game. I don't think it was published by MS. I had the game (physical retail boxe) and don't remember anything MS related in the presentation (intro video, boxe, etc ...). From what i can recall it was made by Westwood and i think EA bought the rights to all Westwood content a while back.

 

I own it on GoG already so i wont download it again.

The current Need for Speed (Trial) and Batlefield Hardline expansion Betrayal both hit On the House today - and the NFS trial crashes to the desktop.  When I had the Intel graphics drivers as the default, it complained that the drivers were too NEW (not too old).  In an unrelated development, Forza 6 Apex will NOT run in *hybrid mode* - it essentially thinks that any mode where you have both the Intel GPU and another GPU is hybrid mode.  I will test-run Apex again in *solo mode* (no discrete GPU in place at all) to see if this persists.

There is a bunch of DLCs and expansion packs that you can get for free. Even if you don't own the games you can still get then so that when you do buy the base game you can use the DLCs and expansion packs.

Indeed (not a trial - and likely part of the ME: Andromeda promotion) and it includes a ton of free content, too.  (Downloading as I type this.)

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
