Pokémon Scarlet - really good game minus the obvious performance issues.

I've finished the main game / most of the post game, just need to work on the Pokedex now which will take some time.

Playing through A plagues tale requiem with some halo infinite MP on the side. 

I don't know what I'll jump into next, have to check my backlog. 

That game's poster reminds me of Grave of Fireflies by Studio Ghibli. Man, I don't want to watch that film ever again.

Portal RTX

...soooo pretty.

Edit: and I'm done.  Forgot how short the game is.

Now playing Quake Dimension of the Past. 

 

FYI:  Amazon Prime gaming has Quake w/ “The Scourge of Armagon," “Dissolution of Eternity,” “Dimension of the Past,” and “Dimension of the Machine" for free.

Very nearly platinumed Death Stranding Directors Cut on PS5 it's been a most expected awesome journey considering I thought I'd be bored shitless when I started it months ago!

Finally got Platinum with 250hrs playtime and the only game played over the last 3.5 months! It will be missed.

Trying Return to Monkey Island now, apparently it's really good.

It is - there was only one thing that upset me but I won’t spoil it.

 

I have been bored and wanted to play something new

 

i totally missed the outer worlds - when people said it was amazing I always though it was the outer wilds game they talk about which I did not like

outer wilds is like borderlands 1 and even better (I got sick of crazy amounts of loot in later versions)

 

And the cheesy alien world RPG got me hooked - playing though the expansions now - though some talk is too “politically correct” it is almost laughable- I enjoy a good laugh

Mass Effect Legendary 

 

wow I am having totally different experience then when I tried ME2 and then Me1 afterwards 

me2 was good before and me1 was not

 

now everything is amazing - I enjoyed me1 like I could not before and playing me2 now 

 

It is real nice to have such improved games and playing them in a row with the same character

 

 

as I love sci fi - this is a treat I did not expect to be honest

Just finished Stray last night. Unbelievable game, albeit short.

I didn't expect it to be as gritty, yet beautiful as it is. Soundtrack is on point, and a few callbacks to HL2 as well that I certainly appreciated.

People who whine about Stray because it is a “walking simulator” and not dead souls like game just don’t get it

 

i loved stay for the atmosphere- story and gameplay were good enough to for me to keep exploring the world that fascinated me. 
 

I really enjoyed stray a lot. I am not sure it is a game to write more lore about - but for a few hours of pure wondering about it was fantastic 

 

 

ps. Almost done ME2 legendary and it is a lot of fun - now that I stared from the beginning and know the lore - everything seems more exciting- then jumping in ME2 with zero knowledge like I did last time or trying to catch up on me1 when it was super dated in graphics and controls already.

 

Last time I quit me3 early on because i did not feel the game - now if all my character decisions carry on - this will make so much more sense 

 

TLDR - Mass Effect Legendary- if you like sci-fi and did not already enjoy the games - it is a good time to try it out

 

i did not like the idea of constantly remaking games but in this case the remade trilogy makes perfect sense

Totally agree. I actually need to finish the legendary trilogy. I stopped somewhere on the first game and never went back, but I was thoroughly enjoying the game. One of the last good Bioware games. I also need to finish DA: Origins for that matter. :p

    • Happens to the best of us, bro. 😛 
    • Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
    • This Gigabyte AMD RX 9070 XT is very good deal despite the launch of 9070 GRE by Sayan Sen Recently we reviewed AMD's latest 1440p gaming card, the Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12GB, for $549. The card is in stock too at that price, though if you want significantly better performance and don't mind spending a bit more, the Gigabyte Gaming model of RX 9070 XT is currently on sale for just $650 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The card employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The technical specifications of the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT GAMING OC 16G are given in the table below: Specification Value Core Clock Boost Clock: up to 3060 MHz Game Clock: up to 2520 MHz Stream Processors 4096 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Size 16GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Bus 256-bit Card Bus Interface PCI Express 5.0 Maximum Resolution 7680 × 4320 Multi-View Support 4 displays Card Dimensions L=288 mm, W=132 mm, H=56 mm Recommended Power Supply 750W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin Video Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16GB Graphics Card, GV-R9070XTGAMING OC: $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $740) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Why does this kind of tactic not surprise me?
    • They used AI based TOOLS to convert the JavaScript engine (the main rendering engine is still C++) and it was not fully automated but was human reviewed. Other subsystems will be looked into to also be converted to Rust in the future. I have no problem with any of that.
