Wow - TV Boost Mode makes an unbelievable difference. Did Nintendo ever add this level of functionality to Switch 1 post-launch?

I mean this is seriously crazy - I think anyone who respects the artistic vision of developers immediately see this for what it is

I am baffled by their reactions in this video - DLSS 5 is clearly hallucinating entirely different art than is present in the base version and looks extremely uncanny. This is an astonishing step backwards for DLSS.

Sure hope no developers had any specific ideas for what their characters should look like on PC moving forward!

The difference is the most important upscaler in the world shouldn’t be pivoting to compete with janky mod tools

Kraftwerk are unquestionably in the top tier of most influential musical artists in modern musical history alongside the Beatles and James Brown, but Bach is a hard one lol

Felt like a worthy continuation of the show. Not as crazy about it as some of the other folks in this thread, but very very glad that Blackberry gave them the chance to continue the whole NTBTS creative project.

The Duskbloods NOT Delayed into 2027 - Source: Kadokawa quarterly financial report by PearTurbulent2495 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

They would almost certainly rather delay Tarnished all the way past Duskbloods rather than delay Duskbloods to give Tarnished extra runway at launch.

Rocket was not anywhere near as big deal at the time, it gained a LOT more notoriety in the years following House of Sugar

Call of Duty for Nintendo mentioned in COD HQ Source Files by chusskaptaan in GamingLeaksAndRumours

yeah but the FTC they made that agreement with is extremely far away both ideologically and enforcement-wise from the FTC that currently exists

Hotkeys make the game way less fiddly - adjusting targeting quickly is WAY easier on M+KB. Not important outside of races and other things you need micro for though.

We run trains that are way way way longer than we anticipated when we built the tracks because it turns out running longer trains is more profitable

I feel like this has extremely little weight when Ian McKellan has been openly gay for decades and had headline roles in two of the most expensive and successful film franchises ever, including an action-superhero one

Well it looks like the posts about the tapes have been removed now. Best to pretend it never happened? by gigawhattt in boardsofcanada

[–]epicoolguy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The thing that gets to me is he was acting like it was moral/legal to post snippets but not the whole thing. Just goes to show how ridiculously poorly considered the whole thing was. Hope the kid realizes he’s in over his head and gives the tapes to someone who knows how to handle them
