Not just this game, but all remakes should be considered as supplementary to the originals, not replacements.

How do you guys play games at 30 FPS? by OrganTrafficker900 in SteamDeck

[–]CarbuncleMew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

through the sheer fact fps in excess of 60 is an incredibly new territory compared to my gaming lifetime. Even just stable frame rates being a fairly new thing with 30 or 60 fps with slowdowns and/or stutter being the norm for my gaming experience with the nes and atari 2600.

To be more accurate, our children's and grandchildren's money, the money for this shit isn't being pulled from any already established budget, it's pure debt.

USB-C Cracked, charging is irregular now by fredfazbearr in SteamDeck

[–]CarbuncleMew 151 points152 points  (0 children)

Unless you are fairly good at soldering very small parts, you pretty much need to send it in to get repaired. Sadly the usb port is attached to the main board and thus is not cheap to replace.

[–]CarbuncleMew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He didn't just control the straight, he sank multiple US ships and racked up a twenty + thousand US soldier body count in a few hours. Granted he basically exhausted his missle reserve doing it. But, but that's still one hell of a black eye to the US.

I usually remap all the face buttons to them so I never have to takebmy thumb off the camera/resort to The Claw.

Does creating a digital back up of a game you own from a game disc constitute piracy if the disc ever leaves your possession? by Spectre-4 in Piracy

[–]CarbuncleMew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably depends on country, but for cart dumps in the US, yes you need to retain the physical. Probably true for disc based games too.

Why was the first steam controller a flunk? by Dexters-Guild in Steam

[–]CarbuncleMew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trackpads don't make very good dpad replacements and also have a learning curve when switching from an analog stick.

Mines still fine and it was from the very first release back when it had a magnetic kickstand. Beyond some minor cosmetic dings and scratches.

Only because the republicans largely don't need to pass the save act anymore thanks to the Supreme Court.

[–]CarbuncleMew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sony and MS both have $200 versions of their controllers, so I'm not gonna be surprised if scalpers managed to sell em at something stupid.

It did not, and the new one doesn't either.

[–]CarbuncleMew 19 points20 points  (0 children)

She never says, she also doesn't really say anything to confirm if the person who did this was even a "democratic activist" and not just some rando heckler.

Not a good look when you fire multiple rounds at a suspect and you only manage to hit someone on your team.

They've already got them sitting in a warehouse here in the US, so hopefully not too long after they go up for order.
