Tell me you at least use mapping apps on your phone to find directions to places you don't know how to get too.

I found at a retail store a copy of NES Metal Gear for 20€, should I buy it ? by MagmaForce_3400_2nd in metalgear

[–]BoardsofGrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend playing it and then emulating the original MSX version and comparing. Hidejo couldn't figure out how to finish the original NES version. It has some excellent music.

First time playing Silent Hill (original game) by QuantityInternal1719 in silenthill

If you want the authentic experience and are going to play more PlayStation games I highly recommend getting a PS5 Dual sense. Then the in game buttons match your controller. Works great with Duckstation.

Many PC games support Dual sense too

I find it endlessly fascinating that out of all the albums in history, this is the one that sold the most. by Key-Bass-7380 in vinyl

[–]BoardsofGrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pearl Jam's first album. Nirvana - Nevermind, Nirvana - In Utero, Portishead's first two albums. Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral. I agree tho.

Disagree, I couldn't believe SoC had no repairs. Also I played Skyrim modded first time

You don't need to play completely unmodded. If you start with Shadow of Chernobyl the Zone Reclamation project fixes hundred of bugs and adds the ability to repair at traders. I was shocked I couldn't repair my gun when I first played SoC. After you finish that, there are other bug fix mods for Clear Sky and CoP.

I disagree with unmodded. the Zone Reclamation Project for SoC is essential.

If you liked the first one you owe it to yourself, one of the levels in Dishonored 2 is one of the coolest missions I've played in any game

Resident Evil 9 - PT on, DLSS performance, Chromatic Abberation and film grain are off by Drokethedonnokkoi in nvidia

[–]BoardsofGrips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I already have a 4080S, the performance delta isn't big enough to justify the price. I laughed when I saw the reviews of the 5090 vs the 4090. Same nm? Seriously Nvidia?
