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..

 

https://www.origin.com/en-in/store/free-games/on-the-house

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.)

    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.

    • No thanks! WebView trash is unacceptable. I only use software that's native.
