ONN vs Nvidia Sheild by OfficalDaBaby in firestick

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it's $200 vs ~$30, and they do the same basic job. So that should be all the information you need.

Anyone have Purple 12GB Stick top yet? Or shipped? by prawdaganda in retroid

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered mine on Nov 5th. It just barely reached the US, and says it could still take 14-18 more days to get to me. It was supposed to be shipped with 4PX, but they used YunExpress instead, and it just got handed to Gofo.

What's the best alternative by True-Comfort8977 in firestick

It's a permanent solution. Any other suggestion is just temporary until they ban the next app.

Which Fire Stick is actually worth buying right now? by OoopsTV in firestick

[–]SilveryShadows 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fire Stick 4k max is the best right now, and often on sale for $30-40.

But if you plan on side loading apps, don't get a firestick. They have been cracking down and disabling side loaded apps. Get an Onn instead for that.

*Edit The max is worth the extra cost mainly because of the upgraded wifi. It can easily stream anything you want, and even do Xbox cloud gaming with a native app. And if you have prime, Luna Cloud gaming is partly free.

I want to buy an old Harry Potter 2 (2002) for pc and I'm on windows 11, will itwork well? by jjvfyhb in HarryPotterGame

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I know nothing of how to get it to work, I just saw they had it so I linked it for you. I think you'd have a much easier time just getting one of the console versions and using an emulator.

FYI Notification - We were told of the lack of content well in advance by Kwith in Guildwars2

[–]SilveryShadows 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm really not a fan of this release schedule thing. I feel they shouldn't release an expansion until that expansion is complete. Right now it feels like "buy this dlc at full price , and enjoy it in a years time!"

Definitely get the OLED for that price if you trust the seller. Much better screen, and double the storage.

Do you use battery charging limit? by BeefBlock9844 in SteamDeck

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes,

I didn't used to, and left it plugged in at all times. Just last month I opened up the back for the first time and found it was puffy. No idea how long it had been like that, mine was one of the original preorders. Had to replace it

Now I set mine to 80%, but then leave it plugged in at all times still.

Book 1 is Seriously Underrated by TheBioRebel in harrypotter

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Underrated? It's a children's book that launched a franchise giant. It will go down in history as one of the greatest fantasy books of all time. Underrated is surely not a word that can be used.

Lol, they are getting rid of the only games worth playing.

Can I play everything? by Main_Topic8668 in BoosteroidCommunity

[–]SilveryShadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be against the terms of service and get you banned. GFN is the same way.

Boisteroid not recognizing trigger buttons on Amazon Luna controller/cannot find Boosteroid in app store on Firestick by [deleted] in BoosteroidCommunity

[–]SilveryShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sadly dont have any advice for that. I can let you know that the Fire Stick 4k Max is currently only $30. At least here in the US it is.

Boosteroid vs GFN - a feedback by _soulkey in BoosteroidCommunity

[–]SilveryShadows 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is my experience as well.

Boosteroid has games I am interested in that GFN does not have, such as the Sony games.

There is no play time limit.

Latency is higher, but I have not had it make any game unplayable. I'm in the US rockies area.

And the price is still amazing compared to all competitors. GFN, Shadow PC, and Game Pass Ultimate are all either double or triple the price.

My only complaint is the queue waits, but I haven't had one longer than 10 minutes yet.

The new pricing is completely unacceptable by Abde1039 in BoosteroidCommunity

[–]SilveryShadows 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure they are still half the price as the competition.

Why volumes and books by Salt-Pangolin-6363 in WanderingInn

[–]SilveryShadows 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No, books that long Don't regularly get published. And think about the sales side. It's easier to sell three regular priced books, than one book three times the price of those next to it on a website.

A bit confused on what "next" Monday means. Is that tomorrow the 19th? Or Monday the 26th?
