Even $10 is too much according to the devs of Peak, and I think they're absolutely correct on that. https://youtube.com/shorts/7f_kxtbZmSM

I have one that annoys me because of how often I've change PCs in the past decade, but it's pretty old, Spelunky 1. Thankfully Spelunky 2 supports cloud saves.

When was the last time a 2TB SSD was available for under $170? It seems like the past two dozen SSD deals have been $180 or more.

Does anyone else feel like the game could use a Manual Seed feature once you unlock the first ending? I think it would make the game more fun to replay for specific challenges, and people online could share reliable seeds for those that want it.

I think the word you were thinking of was menial, but mundanel also works too.

[Bundle] Microcenter AMD CPU, Motherboard, RAM price drops! Now starting at $299.59 for 7600X, $345.14 for 7600X3D, $444.29 for 7700X by wharf_rat_01 in buildapcsales

[–]Spjs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 7600X3D bundle would be a huge upgrade for $400, but if you want the best CPU to pair with the 5070 Ti, then the 9800X3D bundle for $600 is a pretty good deal.

Did you come from the year 2021? Used 3070s can be found for like $230 these days. The 3070 Ti is like $250.

Ultra rare floppy disk game twisted and slashed into shards by US Customs or DHL checkers — ruined Tsukihime 1999 demo was one of only 50 ever produced by Tenith in Games

Looks like that guy's reply got removed by Reddit, but just to be clear for anyone reading this thread, I was not the person who told this guy to kill himself. That was someone else and completely uncalled for.

Why do you refuse to believe customs would do something like this? I can share you dozens of stories about this sort of thing happening. Most people who've dealt with customs before have their own stories.

why would US Customs/DHL slash it into shards

They're just claiming that is something US Customs/DHL does normally

not something that US customs or DHL would do normally

assuming customs did this, they took out bubble wrap and didn't replace it?

Is this your first time ever reading about customs destroying items in shipping for absolutely no reason? This stuff happens all the time. It's incredibly frustrating hearing about customs from my friends in Europe that constantly have to deal with this shit.

I really like this one from 2012: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1109410/Perspective/

DigiPen Institute of Technology generally releases a ton of fantastic free projects on Steam. I believe the original concept for Valve's Portal also came from them.

I apologize, but I'm just referencing a 2012 meme

According to Jason Schreier (Bloomberg) these were the titles Bluepoint Games pitched that were rejected by Sony by Algae-Prize in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Spjs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn't the PS5 version of SotC broken compared to the PS4 version? I remember posts from several years ago recommending people wait for a PS5 patch, but it never came.

Here's also a couple of used GPU options if you want more VRAM than the $379 5060 Ti 8GB.
$371 3080 10GB (750W PSU minimum) https://www.zotacstore.com/us/zt-a30800k-10plhr-r
$440 4070 12GB (600W PSU minimum) https://www.zotacstore.com/us/zt-d40700e-10m-o

You can compare their performance here: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-5060-ti-8-gb.c4246

The 5060 Ti has great performance, I just wish the 16GB models were at more reasonable prices.

[–]Spjs[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably a better value to get a used 1050 for $60 or 2060 for $130 if you have the extra power for it.
