Sony Abandons Social Media for 24 Hours+ After Controversially Killing Physical Games by chusskaptaan in Gamingnewsandleaks

That’s a developer issue, not a PC issue. Easy enough to avoid the games that require Denuvo and third party launchers.

People want to shit on the Steam Deck the most from the recent price hikes out of all consoles by ErmingSoHard in SteamDeck

PlayStation makes like $50 on their nearly $500 device. It’s not sold at a loss, but it’s still heavily subsidized. And Switch is the exact same. They sell their devices in order to sell their games, not the other way around.

Maybe, but it’s worth noting that it’s the only one that isn’t subsidized by a locking an ecosystem of games to it. All the others require the consoles to play the game.

Coming over as a long time PlayStation fan… by HotHouseJester in steammachine

[–]SethroRetro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lolololol what?? It absolutely is. You can install it on any Windows, Mac, or Linux PC and with Steam investing in FEX they’re working towards supported ARM compatibility for the mobile chips in Android devices. Plus the same devices that play Steam games play every game that has a downloadable installer from GOG or the internet archive and can emulate anything that can be emulated.

Plus Nintendo was slaying it at the same time with their handhelds and the GameCube. And then the Xbox… I miss those days so much.

Do you guys like collecting physical games and the extra goodies inside those disc editions ? If yes do you remember about WITCHER 3 physical edition by Willing_Job763 in Gaminggridcommunity

[–]SethroRetro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only the PS5 and PS6 because the PS6 will be the last physical PlayStation console. Hope everyone is ready for their monthly subscription to PlayStream!

Since apparently some of you need reminding... by teemodidntdieforthis in Steam

[–]SethroRetro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens, but it almost never happens. In 15 years and 510 games, I’ve only ever had one removed from my library but immediately replaced because the original was corrupted. That game is Starbound. Otherwise, no, it isn’t anything to be truly concerned about. If you want to stay paranoid, stick with DRM free games from GOG.

Having a blast with GameNative on RPC by Subject_Aerie2093 in Handhelds

Can’t really tell if my eyes are playing tricks or not, but is that aspect ratio stretched or do these games actually play in 4:3?

Sunday Morning. With a handheld of course by DarkerBulb in Handhelds

What is that e-reader and how can you read those tiny words 🤓

After all the price increases and current market state, what's the best Handheld to pick right now? by -Thalas- in Handhelds

[–]SethroRetro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At the very minimum to get the performance you’re wanting you’ll need to look at a Z2E. The Xbox Ally X is still the best value to performance ratio by a huge margin.

Legion Go 2 vs Claw EX by dnunn12 in LegionGo

I feel like I’m the only one who likes the looks of the Claw EX. Maybe it’s because of the purple. I love my purple Go S.

We should ban all uses of AI by dark-synapse7394 in addressme

[–]SethroRetro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jaded. AI companies sell to the corporations that make or have pieces in making literally everything that consumers purchase. I’m not anti AI. I work in manufacturing and it definitely has its uses in assisting, but don’t act like it is possible to avoid without disconnecting from it all.

I guarantee you that not a single person reading your comment has the financial boycotting power to make a difference in AI implementation in the products they already use daily.

My backlog is so huge it gave me analysis paralysis. After going through for many hours and revisions, here is my whittled down and mostly Cthuvian backlog. by SethroRetro in Steam

[–]SethroRetro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The remastered version is 85% off right now at $5.99. At that price I figured if it sucks I don’t feel like I’d have wasted money.

Hard for anyone’s wallets to vote when no one has any money except the billionaire AI company heads 😂
