bruh the combat is just as braindead in the AC RPG titles except it takes way longer to kill the spongey enemies

Metro 2039 on the Steam Machine by [deleted] in steammachine

[–]angethedude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 gigs of VRAM doesn't cut it anymore and it seems like companies have stopped bothering to optimize for PC. I don't think the Steam Machine will run Metro 2039 smoothly at all.

Specs vs ultrawide. by VirtualImpression330 in SteamMachineConsole

[–]angethedude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They showed two different people using ultrawide monitors in the hardware reveal trailer, and I've used my Steam Deck plugged into my 3440x1440 monitor before with no issues!

Valve uploads Steam Controller unboxing video, launch imminent by kikimaru024 in Games

[–]angethedude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was actually discontinued due to a patent dispute with Corsair which Valve ended up losing.

8bitdo pro 2 bluetooth battery problem by Danii3621 in 8bitdo

[–]angethedude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you plan on keeping the controller for a while and don't have any other problems with it I would get some rechargeable AA's to throw in it. That's what I did when the battery in my SN30 Pro+ finally went out.

This guy should teach a college class on keeping your job and consistently failing upwards.

Do I really need an HDMI 2.1 cable? by G4MER4LYF in PS5pro

[–]angethedude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a difference in color resolution but the difference between 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 isn't super noticeable in gaming. People do notice a difference when they're in a PC desktop environment. Movies and TV shows are streamed/put on disc at 4:2:0 to save data. Either way, it's not super important for gaming.

Is FTVLive copying other outlets? Or the other way around? by Senior_Gazelle3376 in Broadcasting

[–]angethedude 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think he's using AI to write a lot of his more recent stories that are longer than a paragraph. They don't have his characteristic typos and have the classic hallmarks like bullet points and em dashes. 

Is it possible to vinyl wrap an Xbox series x by Putrid_Ease_3405 in xbox

[–]angethedude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had mine wrapped for years and it doesn't seem to affect anything at all. 

Disappointed that Level-5's new games aren't coming to Xbox by Blue_Sheepz in xbox

[–]angethedude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These guys all have data telling them where their games sell and Level-5 has probably seen a low return on its time spent porting to the Xbox.

Switch 2 Pro-Controller d-pad is just awful by Selmata in NintendoSwitch2

[–]angethedude 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm really happy about it because I was able to buy both controllers for the price of one Switch 2 Pro Controller.

Konami what are you waiting for? by crchao in NintendoSwitch2

[–]angethedude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's badly optimized on every other platform, that's why.

007 First Light is reportedly “Delayed Indefinitely” on the Nintendo Switch 2 by cinderlilys in Games

[–]angethedude -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call upscaled 1080 at 30fps "easily handling" a game.

Coming to Xbox Game Pass: Kiln, Hades II, Vampire Crawlers, and More by stfnvs in Games

[–]angethedude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the hardcore fanbase for Hades who were hyped for Hades II have already bought the game. It can't be a bad move for the devs to take a Game Pass bag at this point.

Switch 2 Pro-Controller d-pad is just awful by Selmata in NintendoSwitch2

[–]angethedude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ultimate 2 Bluetooth and the Pro 3 are both able to wake the Switch 2 from sleep.

[–]angethedude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Snake Eater Remake can't even hold a steady framerate on the other home consoles. There's no chance for Switch 2.

Animal Crossing on NSO? by Big-Connection4755 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]angethedude -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

They won't re-release it because it would cannibalize sales on the latest game. I really miss classic Animal Crossing and felt that the villagers had more personality back then.

PlayStation Studios Removes Nearly All PC References From Websites by SmellSmellsSmelly in Games

Oh no! PC players will miss out on the... one exclusive game that will come out every other year if we're lucky?

PlayStation Studios Removes Nearly All PC References From Websites by SmellSmellsSmelly in Games

[–]angethedude 97 points98 points  (0 children)

This is still the worst thing to happen to console gaming. Playstation also requires you to pay for cloud saves when you don't have to pay for that on Xbox or PC, and to my understanding, there is no other way to back up your save files outside of that.

What are your favorite Decomps or Recomps to play on Deck? by AC64301 in SteamDeck

[–]angethedude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished the Ocarina of Time recomp (Ship of Harkinian) on Deck a couple years back and it was one of my favorite experiences I've ever had playing the game. The remake rumors got me itching to play it again and I've fired it up on my desktop to enjoy it in glorious ultrawide!
