It’s the only reason I’m still there at this point. Fucking Easy Anti-Cheat.

Tempting. Thanks for the review!

That screen looks incredible. I’d love to have something like this, I just can’t really justify it to myself. My phone already will play pretty much anything I want to emulate, the only hassle is needing to lug a controller around (one day I’ll buy one of those backbone controllers or something).
Still, as a lover of tech and games, this kind of product speaks to me. I just WANT it. I don’t need it.

For me, it isn’t that it doesn’t work, it works fine enough most of the time. It’s that it’s so heavy! My work PC is just an office special and it can chug with all the bloat from the office suite. Especially Outlook. God I hate Outlook.

I’m sure his family will really appreciate his “manliness” as he ages. I swear, I’ll never understand these people and that mindset.

In addition to the other commenter mentioning “Do Not Recommend”, there is an extension called BlockTube that is pretty handy.

If I had known I could make a living just telling blatant falsehoods in an angry way, my life might have turned out a lot differently.
I do enjoy being able to sleep at night, though. So maybe it all worked out for the best.

DEI, otherwise known as hiring the right person for the job, regardless of label. It’s wild that meritorious hiring principles aren’t the norm in this country. Have to find out what you are before who you are matters.

I’m still so mad about this. I have a save with over 350 hours in. It’s the only souls game I’ve ever played because I thought it was awesome.
I sat it down and waited on the DLC, which I bought. I went to go play it and realized that one of the updates corrupted my save.
I don’t have the heart to play through it again. I just can’t. I’ll never play that DLC I spent $40 on.

- Comment on California signs first US law regulating AI chatbots, defying White House stance 2 months ago:
Good. Imagine the relative utopia we might live in if other states were as proactive about protecting the rights of their citizens.
I want digital privacy laws, right-to-repair, and the million other advocacy-driven things Cali has. It’ll never happen in a million years, but I can still want them.
I can’t wait to leave my shit-hole state and move West.

For what it’s worth, I kinda agree. Maybe I’ve changed but I feel like their content over the last year or two is nowhere near as good as it was.
Maybe I’ve just had a change in taste, though.

That’s awesome! Which ending did you choose? Also, I highly highly highly recommend doing the gigs. They fill out the world in amazing ways and aren’t just cheap filler. They really give flavor to the bigger jobs and the characters involved.

Underground 2 .net has as l an amazing loren accurate overhaul. Highly recommend it if a one stop shop mod.
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 2 months ago:
The EA Sports BIG titles are stupid fun. Highly recommend SSX Tricky, NBA Street Vol. 2, and NFL Street 2.
MX vs ATV Unleased is a classic. Great racing game.
ATV Offroad Fury 2 is fantastic, but hard to emulate.
I’m sure I’ll think of more, but those are great off the top of my head.

Just look what they’re doing with their Xbox brand. One of the most well established brands in the most profitable entertainment sector and they are literally setting fire to it in every conceivable direction.
Microsoft must be taking business cues from GRRM… Kill all your main characters.

Probably my favorite game and game world of all time. Though, to be honest, I’m having difficulty in relating it to Skyrim. Then again, I was never big into Skyrim. I always got bored half way through the game and never finished it. Probably just a setting thing. I really like sci-fi and less into fantasy.
Did you get Phantom Liberty? If not, I highly recommend it. It’s ridiculously good. I’m on my 5th or 6th playthrough and still finding new things and details I missed previously. The world is ridiculously dense.

Very cool. I’ll check that out when I have time. Thanks!

You’re right. “I want it” is completely valid. If I had a bit more disposable income to play with I think I’d probably go ahead and bite the bullet.
I wouldn’t call Max Payne one of my “favorite” games, more that its a really good game that I’m currently discovering just how good it is. My favorite games are Cyberpunk 2077… Probably have like 500 hours in that. Had it since launch. By far my favorite “world” I’ve ever been immersed in. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been living rent-free in my head for months. That was a masterpiece. I spend 75% of my gaming time playing race sims, though. I’ve been going hard on Le Mans Ultimate lately. It’s so good! I want a race sim rig so bad. It’s the one thing I’ve wanted for years that I haven’t been able to get a chance to get. Hard to drop 2g’s on a peripheral.
Beyond that, more retro… Donkey Kong Country, Diddy Kong Racing, The Typing of the Dead (God I love this one. So glad RetroArch exists otherwise I would have never got to experience it)

I had some fun messing around with that remake they recently did. I unlocked all the levels in three and got most of the challenges done. I’m more of a Skate guy to be honest. Skate 2 and Skate 3 are all-time greats for me. The new skate game that is free to play is the biggest piece of shit I’ve ever played. It makes me so mad every time I think about it. Been waiting on that game for like a decade and they absolutely shit all over it and us. They absolutely ruined it.
No I’m not upset at all about it I always have steam coming out of my ears.

Good to know! Thanks, homie.
I’m definitely going to play 1 & 2. The love for them is overwhelming. I wonder if I’ll feel differently than others due to playing 3 first. That’ll be interesting to find out.
- Comment on What Are Ya'll Playing? 3 months ago:
Heck yeah I’ll check it out!
I keep thinking about picking up one of those small emulation devices but I keep coming back to the same thing… My phone is probably just as powerful and I already own it. It’s a little annoying to have to have a controller to play, though.
I have all my emulators up to ps2 on my phone and they run great in high resolution. I’m struggling to find a need for one of those aside from “I want it.” Lol

Wow, I didn’t know about all that for RoboCop. If I’m honest, I’ve never actually watched the movies. I know… I know. I should have by now. Especially considering I’m a big fan of dystopian cyberpunk type stuff. Maybe after I give it a watch I’ll be more interested in the game.
I’ve heard about No Mercy being the king of the hill, but I haven’t tried it either. Warzone was… not great. lol. I much preferred WCW-NWO Revenge of the two. Those are the only two I owned back in the day, so I mainly boot them up for nostalgia purposes.
When you say No Mercy has a modding community, are you talking about a PC release of some sort or romhacks?
