Modern Doom isn’t really a Boomer Shooter anyways.

It auto updated for me on Steam Deck and Bazzite, so if you’re using either of those it should be.

Of course it was in the US. Europe actually has consumer protections.

And the backpedaling begins.

Don’t believe them. I’ve been told I’ve been grandfathered into legacy pricing on multiple occasions by multiple companies only to have every single one of them force me off old pricing. This’ll be no different. You might get a few months. If you’re lucky, you’ll get a year. But it’ll go away eventually.

Works well on my little bazzite machine. Loads hella fast now.

Oh cool! I haven’t heard the name Geohot since the old PS3 jailbreak.

I also agree with his take on AI

Microsoft stopped releasing console sales numbers over a decade ago. Tough to say how they’re performing in hardware. But it’s also safe to say that they wouldn’t hide the number if it was good. But they don’t care about hardware anymore. It’s all about the subscription now.

I’m curious how that subscription value is gonna look in a few years now that Microsoft has cancelled basically everything and fired a ton of talent. How do you sell a subscription when you have no exclusive content for said subscription?

How do you convince third party AAA studios to put their game on a subscription service where they know they’ll make less money? Aside from buying the studio, that is.

Why would someone want to pay monthly, indefinitely, for access to some games? You’re not gonna have time to play everything. And if you pick one game and play it endlessly, it’s a better value to just own the game outright. I only see the subscription model working for casual gamers, which are the exact kind of people who have no issues dropping a recurring expense if they aren’t getting their money’s worth. Sign up for a month here or there, play the new release, drop the subscription, rinse and repeat.

On the flip side, you’ve also effectively devalued your games to the people who would have paid full price. Why pay $70 for Doom or Indiana jones when I know I can pay like $15 for a month and beat them both, and unsubscribe till the next game comes out. I’ll either temporarily subscribe or wait for a steep discount.

Microsoft is bad for gaming as a whole.

Wait. Why would we pay for this??

Payment platforms have problems with incest and furry content from the looks of that list.

Beat saber is the only game besides Gran Turismo that I ever used with VR. Both are great experiences. I only bought it for GT7 on PS5, total waste of money honestly, but it’s nice that the PSVR also works on PC too so I can use it on other racing games.

Oh look. Sega taking old games down so they can sell them to you again. Never seen that before. /s

Steam hasn’t forgotten about gaming on Mac, even if Apple has.

Any Bluetooth mouse already works and has better ergonomics.

Is this just the 80/20 rule?

If they stick to just remakes, I’m sure it’ll sell like hotcakes. I’d gladly pick up banjo Kazooie and Tooie with updated graphics and the same gameplay.

But I don’t want them making a brand new Banjo Kazooie game, especially after playing Crash 4… it just didn’t feel enough like those original games. The difficulty was ramped way up, the levels dragged way too long, and the story and characters didn’t feel the same at all. I don’t think they understood what made those games so popular.

Don’t mind him. Any time someone shares code, there’s always someone else who did nothing talking about how much better your code could have been. Just noise from the peanut gallery.

Do you wanna share a bash script, then?

HP typically makes garbage nowadays, so I dunno how many people are clamoring for them to make a handheld.

How is this any different from Overseerr?
