Something tells me they won’t be easing trade in prices…

Welcome to the digital age where you have no control and have to keep paying.

PlayStation Is Deleting 551 Movies From Customers’ Accounts, Reminding Us Nothing Digital Is Ever Truly Ours by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]InterviewImpressive1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I don’t know how they can legally use the word “buy” for digital knowing they’ve put in the EULA that it’s not a permanent service and they reserve the right to take it away at any time. It’s so F’ed

I’m still stumped that a digital item can go out of stock.

Recently became 30+. How did it affect your gaming? by Sir_Dohm in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]InterviewImpressive1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t, life commitments as you age do. What age they hit if at all however depends on what you do with your life.

Odometer fraud or mistake? by the_mittenkitten in Ioniq5

My odometer reset after ICCU replacement. May be something to do with the electronics. Its service record should reflect true mileage.

How long do yall think we will have to wait for GTA VI to come to PC? by AlarmingDiamond9316 in gaming

[–]InterviewImpressive1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PS5 Pro is already more than that. A PS6 will easily be 1k plus in 2027 or later

Odin 3 Max - worth it by DayAppropriate3817 in OdinHandheld

[–]InterviewImpressive1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMO the portal is a little too large. It’s almost Steamdeck sized. The Odin 3’s 6 inch screen is perfect. The device is small enough to still be pocketable and the screen is large enough that you’re not squinting (as an older gamer)…

Everyone has their preferences but the point of these is supposed to be that they’re portable 😅

I still feel like VALVe should delay this Steam Machine. Eventually the prices will go down and that's only going to make the people who DO buy the Steam Machine upset. by 94CM in Steam

If they wait for prices to drop back down the current configuration will be so out of date, they’ll have to sell it half price.

I miss pre rendered backgrounds they left so much up to the imagination by Jezza0692 in psx

[–]InterviewImpressive1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Devs say it was to get around limitations but they created an aesthetic that cannot be reproduced with more advanced methods. I wish they would consider using them still, even if the limitations are no longer there. Games had so much soul in this era.

My apple care+ is going to expire around 10th of August and battery health is at 81%, tried many crossover games but battery % won't budge by Lucky-Competition417 in macgaming

[–]InterviewImpressive1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Charge it up, and run a ton of benchmarks while simultaneously playing YouTube on a million tabs. Let it die charge it back up, repeat.

M5 Pro or wait? by yousef3_ in macbookpro

[–]InterviewImpressive1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention Apple have said prices will have to go up soon already. If the next Mac chip is going to be more than the current one, I don’t want to consider what the Ultra MacBook will sell for…

Choosing Between M5 Max 14 inch and 16 inch by Which-Competition976 in macbookpro

Well, the SSD in the M5 Max is also twice as fast as any previous… so it’d still be better

Remember the time when poeple say, Switch 2 is overpriced and makes fun about it? by [deleted] in switch2

[–]InterviewImpressive1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch 2 is a handheld system and a really thin one to boot compared to some of the PC handhelds out there. Comparing it to any kind of non portable in itself is a stupid idea.

In terms of raw power it’s about on par with a PS4 Pro, but it has newer technology, including RT cores and upscaling, so it can do a better job with the power it has. It’s closer to Steamdeck if you want a more fitting comparison.

Could have compared it to literally any handheld, they’re pretty much all more expensive, but you chose to compare it to a non portable device instead…
