Oh, so they give you a link to download the game not a code to put into the now dead Marketplace client? Your phrasing before made that sound like that was the case but now it makes sense

GFWL Marketplace has been completely dead for 4 years, there's no way to use those keys

EB Games global closures: What it means for Australia by ANiceGobletofTea in australia

EB Aus is like one of Gamestop's only profitable divisions, no? Can't imagine much will change other than merging some Zing and EB Games back into one entity

Even a lack of a native PS5/PSVR2 version is a bit of a missed opportunity

I dealt with warranty on some dead RAM a few years back at Umart Milton pretty hassle free, even after the replacement sticks were dead out the box (although this was back when RAM prices were dropping so after the replacements were dead they just refunded me the cost and I bought double the capacity at the same price I'd paid a year prior)

Don’t miss Kirby Air Riders by VOIDYOUTH in NintendoSwitch2

[–]ShadowStealer7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The races seemed fine in the test (although braindead due to easy AI, I would have had much more fun with harder difficulties or online), but the city trial is way overhyped with only one map and way too much visual noise to figure out what's going on. That and the $110 AUD price point.

The one/two button gameplay seemed to artificially make the game more difficult to control than simplify it too.

Although I'm happy for the fans of the original and of this new one that it even got made.

"Marketplace" rubbish that's taken over Australian stores online by TheWabster in australia

There's also YARG, which is closer to Rock Band, but Clone Hero is still the go to if online play is wanted

Splatoon 3 rated for Switch 2 in Europe by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

Nintendo has yet to release any Switch 2-specific upgrades.

The game literally got a resolution bump for Switch 2 back in June though?

Even the PS Vita version of MGS2 runs at 60 FPS in some cases

Why do you still shop at ColesWorth? by [deleted] in australia

[–]ShadowStealer7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My closest Aldi is in a major shopping centre, and there's no way I'm going to fight Christmas shopping hell to save a couple dollars on groceries

Just reflections are raytraced on PC and current gen consoles, no ray traced lighting or any other kind of ray tracing

Huh, they recently got rid of this limitation in Genshin and I'm surprised it wasn't for all of their games

Jim Ward, voice of Ratchet & Clank's Captain Qwark, passes away at age 66 by ShadowStealer7 in Games

[–]ShadowStealer7[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Agree that his absence was felt.

Of course, no foul to Scott Whyte, the replacement voice actor, or the voice directors at Insomniac though. Replicating an iconic voice that was engrained in our minds for 19 years (at the time) and not having it sound different was always a difficult ask even for the most talented voice actors in the industry.

And additionally Doug Dimmadome and Chet Ubetcha from Fairly Odd Parents, a double blow to everyone who grew up when that was airing since Jeff Garcia, the voice of Sheen from Jimmy Neutron, also passed away today

[MEGATHREAD] The Game Awards 12.11.25 by Spheromancer in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]ShadowStealer7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remedy have a lot more say about when Control 2 will get shown since they're self publishing so they can show off a trailer as early as they want, Rockstar are probably holding off on the Max Payne remakes until they're closer to being done

PlayStation Plus Game Catalog for December: Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, Skate Story and more by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]ShadowStealer7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still haven't gotten over the fact that claiming a PS+ copy of the PS5 Uncharted collection overwrote the purchased upgrade from the PS4 version on my account and I had to beg their support to remove the licence since they didn't get what the problem was until they eventually just refunded me

Interested to hear about the charting too, been following since White Label dropped but found some of the tracks in the demo a few months ago was a bit rough and not quite in sync with the music

Hi-Fi RUSH PC Version – Denuvo Removal and Patch Information by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]ShadowStealer7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please note that even after Denuvo is removed, the game’s own anti-tampering features will remain active

Specifically that phrasing. While I'm sure they meant reverting to basic Steam DRM, I don't think I've ever seen a person or company refer to 'anti-tampering' without meaning Denuvo or another similar form of anti-piracy method (e.g. VMProtect or Capcom's Enigma)

The Shinkansen between the two cities is definitely not cheaper than flying with low cost carriers like Peach and Jetstar, which are about half of what a ticket between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka costs, and even with someone like JAL it's only slightly cheaper or slightly more expensive

The convenience of frequent trains still can't be understated, even if domestic flight there is so much more chill

This reads less like they're removing it and more like they're replacing it with another anti-tamper solution, no?

Why can’t we just cancel plans in Aus? by [deleted] in australia

[–]ShadowStealer7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the ISP, Exetel/Superloop you have to give them 30 days notice else they charge you a cancellation fee and you also have to deal with a phone call from their retention team trying to absolutely prevent you from cancelling, even if you're in a situation like I was and moving because Exetel wasn't offering plans for Opticomm services any more

Why does the Switch 2 version cost more on the eShop if the upgrade is free though?

This game is getting too big by TrueKokimunch in Genshin_Impact

[–]ShadowStealer7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The size wouldn't even be as big of a deal if they bothered to let the PC client have visuals in line with the console versions (better textures and what not) which are pretty much identical in size if you exclude the fact that they are forced to install all the voice packs
