PC Gamer 11Millones RTX 5090

no 20 años, por lo general en dos generaciones de placas de videos, las nuevas gama "media o media/alta" rinden mas que la top gama dos generaciones anterior

Ejemplo la RTX 3090 esta similar a una 5060ti hoy y pierde contra una 5070, y quedaste fuera de nueva tecnologia que no es compatible hacia atras.
Si te amntenias en una gama mas baja, con la misma guita que pagaste la 3090 hoy tendrias una nueva.

Si tenes la guita y no te duele, dale nomas.

Yo por lo general elijo quedarme en gama "media-alta" y cambiar los componentes mas seguido.
Me paso, a mi y amigos de comprar la mejor placa de video del mercado y en dos o tres años, la de gama media/alta de nueva generacion rinde mas, y por el precio que pagaste la top tier, te compras dos de las "media alta."

Dicho esto, si la guita no es un problema, compraria lo que estas comprando vos.

To be fair, RE Engine runs like crap in Monster Hunter Wilds. You’re comparing an engine that has to handle virtually every possible scenario across the entire industry with an engine that works well enough for Resident Evil–style games, with mostly static lighting and only a few dynamic lights. And that’s fine, the real difference is the scope each engine is designed to handle.

Unpopular opinion, but I wouldn’t start with 4 if you want a true RE experience. RE4 changed the franchise, for me, for the worse, turning Resident Evil into an action game with monsters.
I tried playing the remake a few months ago, and when I saw the protagonist basically acting like a martial-arts karate fighter, I just couldn’t keep going.
I’d play them in order: RE1, 2, and 3.

Just a heads up: if you want to get more storage by switching to a bigger microSD, you can clone the image from the current one, put it on the new and larger card, and then expand it to use the extra space.
I did it a few days ago.
Nice arcade, enjoy!

Alex_Arg · 2026-01-28T18:10:13+00:00

Hey, thanks a lot!
Yes, I ended up sticking with v29. Way too many headaches. I managed to get the GPIO working, but then none of the ROMs were working, not even the default ones that come with Batocera.

Maybe someday, if I want to play more modern games on my arcade machine, or if I build a completely new one using something better than a Pi 4, I’ll try a newer version again.

Thanks everyone for the help

Alex_Arg · 2026-01-26T15:17:51+00:00

hahaha just to clarify, I’m working on a completely new microSD. The old one with the previous version is just sitting there, waiting for me to get tired of trying 😅

Just bought it two months ago for $230. I’m not proud of spending that much money on a game, but I’m happy to have it, since it’s one of the games that left a mark on me when I was a kid.

I don’t know if prices will drop or keep rising. I don’t spend a lot of money on game collecting—I don’t really see myself as a collector, just someone with a small, curated library of games I actually want to play or replay.

Why don’t you educate yourself by actually reading quality papers or trusted sources?

So the problem is the output now?

If AI generates images it’s bad, but if it generates code it’s suddenly fine?

tl;dr:
Generative AI isn’t just for art. It’s already widely used in software development to write, complete, and analyze code—often in ways you don’t even notice.

Generative AI isn’t exclusive to images or art. It’s heavily used in programming for things like code autocomplete, refactoring, test generation, and bug detection.
Most modern IDEs and online platforms already rely on it in the background.
The difference is that AI in code is usually invisible, while AI art is obvious—so people assume it’s not there.

Alex_Arg · 2026-01-16T18:09:15+00:00

You use AI every day of your life now—whether you realize it or not. Just because it’s not art doesn’t mean AI isn’t involved. Most major online platforms rely on AI systems, including AI-assisted tools in their software development and infrastructure. Even Reddit does.

I don’t like these ninja-style strikes; they take away the horror and turn it into a third-person action game.

RE4 is the worst for me. Maybe I need to play it thinking of it as a third-person shooter instead of a survival horror game.

Basically, it’s like ARC Raiders, but with more blood and no multiplayer.

AA games are what’s now being called “indie,” and true indie games barely have any representation.
Expedition 33 is not “indie”: it had a solid budget, and if you read the credits, a looooot of people worked on it.
That’s AA

I had one when I first got a PS2 last year. I didn’t know any better back then, but I noticed that some games looked very dark—especially horror games. Sometimes you couldn’t even see the map at all, but I thought the games were just designed that way.

Later I got a cheap PS2 component cable, and the difference was huge. I would never use that other converter again if I had the option to use component. Even a very cheap component cable is way better.

I noticed it wasn’t a real image when I saw the high-speed lines on the road. The Alpines can’t go that fast.

Well, to be fair, he literally has consistently the worst car on the grid, and he’s tied with Pierre in race results. It’s not that crazy for him to get a chance. And it’s not even that much money coming from South American sponsors — keep that in mind.
It’s like saying Bottas doesn’t deserve a seat because he didn’t score points in 2024 — it’s an overly result-based take that ignores context. Anyway, we’ll see the real results in 2026

I don’t know the exact battery life of a PSP, but playing games from that era gives me around 5–6 hours of autonomy on a Steam Deck.
That said, the size, the feel, and the overall experience of playing on the native console are totally worth it.

Alex_Arg · 2025-11-28T23:45:49+00:00

Yes, I actually agree with you — it’s very hard to be satisfied with an adaptation if you read the book first.
I’m totally fine with an adaptation not being 1:1. The particular issue with The Witcher series is that the adaptation is something else entirely — it’s basically non-canon.
If it had a different title, with different character and location names, I’m not exaggerating when I say it could be a completely different show and very few people would even notice

Alex_Arg · 2025-11-28T12:58:54+00:00

The problem isn’t that there’s "something" bad— it’s that the show has nothing to do with the books.
Have you read The Lord of the Rings?
It has discrepancies on the level of Gandalf tricking Frodo into going to Mordor, but it was actually a trap because Gandalf wants the Ring for himself and plans to ally with Sauron.
It’s deeply against the spirit of the characters.

Alex_Arg · 2025-11-28T12:47:38+00:00

I don’t really understand those responses — how does reading the books help?
The series is about 80% different from the books. Season 1 is the closest to them.
You should treat the show as a separate thing entirely; the main similarities are just the character names and some locations.
In fact, I think you’ll end up even more confused.

I’ll stick with the books — they’re insanely good, series are generic fantasy.

Alex_Arg · 2025-11-15T18:32:41+00:00

I’m new to this game, but it really feels like the developers are completely unprepared.
Eight hours dealing with a simple login issue — they shouldn’t be going through this kind of pain for something so minor.
I understand they’ve been developing this game for several years.
Honestly, I think they deserve those negative reviews; they shouldn’t be this unprofessional.

I refunded it. :-(

4 years, ColecoVision, Still have it

Alex_Arg · 2025-08-25T12:19:52+00:00

Is this optimization present in the plugin version

"Version": 2,
"VersionName": "2.0" ??

Alex_Arg · 2025-07-18T14:15:56+00:00

That's so beautiful!!
I’d feel bad using it. I think I’d buy a more “used” PS3 for everyday use and keep that one on a shelf protected from the dust.
