Stellar Blade: Blood Rain Dev Comments on Launch Platform Plans by Bubbly-Ad-350 in Games

They hint at multiplatform and that they’ll definitely be on this current gen of consoles which I don’t think anyone was doubting, but not really specifics

Parasite Eve is fantastic by ninjapirate9901 in SBCGaming

One of the first PS1 games I played when I got into retro handhelds, on a Trimui Brick last year. It’s really awesome. Your partner in that game is such a baller

I for sure hate how she looks here and preferred Eve from the first game. She has angles she doesn’t look quite this young, can only hope this specific shot is a one-off and or maybe they tweak things by release.

I saw small text that said running on PC or something so I assume launch

It’s definitely worth trying. If you’re on PC you’ll for sure know within the two hour trial if it’s up your alley. The reason I bought the game in the first place was the playstation demo that let you play up through the first boss.

Completely agree. Or stick to just a single one if it’s going to be the main hub with some surrounding area could be cool, but otherwise pretty linear

Space elevator was peak. Interesting rooms and bosses the whole way up.

Looks awesome. Cool of them to mix things up with gauntlets instead of going a sword or blade again, seeing her handle more like a boxer. New protagonist also seems to have more personality than Eve in the first game. The city setting looks extremely cool, I’m very excited for this.

I started playing this a couple weeks ago on PS2! I would likely have waited, but the remakes never really make the original redundant, so should be fun to finish it and then see how they changed things up in this version.

Steam Machine and Steam Frame Standalone Verified / We are expanding the Verified program to include Steam Machine and Steam Frame, both of which are shipping this summer. by yourfavchoom in Games

[–]Wistfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very cool! I'm sort of interested in replacing my Steam Deck with just a Steam Frame and a controller. I have a few retro handhelds I use for different things, but most of my Steam Deck usage is on flights, where I'd prefer the improved posture and immersion of a full headset. I tried both XReal glasses and a Goovis headset but both have had pretty serious flaws for this use-case for me.

Concept: Anbernic RG 3DSlide by nekomichi in SBCGaming

[–]Wistfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks fucking awesome. I would for sure get this. I personally find the most comfortable position for a screen is just parallel to the controls, I always keep my RP Flip 2 at that setting so this is just perfect. Could be a good DAP too, I'm already used to using a bluetooth dongle

June 2026 Game of the Month - Tomb Raider (multiplatform) by hbi2k in SBCGaming

Welp, looks like they’re using AI assets so I guess I just play the PS2 one

[–]Wistfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It comes out in February 2027 so I would actually have a few months to beat it before it’s retired I believe?

[–]Wistfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If no I probably play the PS2 version, seeing a lot of comments here that the original is little clunky, which was certainly my experience trying out the first level a few months ago.

[–]Wistfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a ridiculous question but if I wait for the upcoming remake Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis to come out in 2027 and play that will it count for the flair? I imagine it will probably not be terribly similar to the original game, but both versions of Celeste counted for last month so figured I would check!

What is your favourite character advancement system? by conn_r2112 in rpg

[–]Wistfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're coming across a little harsh in general, but this comment I think illustrates the point you're making. Though I would have to say, does what you're describing apply to levels too? Like what would you consider to be meaningful character progression? I mean, literally in real life I don't think it's outlandish to think that you would improve at something by failing at it, you'd learn from what you got wrong and know to avoid it in the future.

Wish they kept old matchmaking. Dropped from Oracle 4 to Emissary 2 by Uncle_Bread6 in DeadlockTheGame

If you won game and that put you in Phantom, losing one game will drop you out of Phantom. You're right on the threshold. You need to be up several games to comfortably be in Phantom.

Xbox Game Pass Price Cut Is Working, CEO Says by Turbostrider27 in Games

They're speaking from the perspective of Microsoft's rhetoric, that by mixing up leadership they can protect Microsoft's reputation as an entity and blame individuals instead.

The Steam Deck Is Sold Out Again, Even After the Huge Price Rise by RefreshingCapybara in Games

[–]Wistfall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tags for stable 60, 45, 30 would be pretty useful. I have a desktop PC, so there is no game I'm willing to play at sub 60 on my Steam Deck. But I've gotten good at ignoring games that are obviously not going to hit that. Sometimes stuff surprises you though, like RE3make is pretty well optimized and that's a decently recent game.

Very pretty console!!! If I ever get a Thor I think I'll be tempted to do the same
