Let’s say for example I have a 165hz 1440p monitor, but can push well over 200fps and then some as it is. Is it truly worth investing in a monitor that can handle that and then some? Potentially OLED too?

Or would it make more sense to invest in a PS5 to have as a system to play older games that are basically dead on PC, but very much alive on Series X/PS5. I know gamepass exists, but I’m not exactly interested in that.

Kinda curious on feedback of what everyone thinks. I’ve only experienced an OLED TV, and it was incredible, and I don’t necessarily need a console but….i really only prefer the PC for things like MMOs where it really shines. Yes COD can shine too, but older games are usually hacked and not worth messing with, and there’s still PS5 exclusives that I can’t get (though many do come over for sure).

So I was playing the game and enjoying it mostly when it hit me. This is a Disney princess in space, complete with her animal sidekick.

How many of you are still playing it?

If you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it, it's super fun and still being played.

Like I hear people talk how Pro evolution soccer or ISS used to be the soccer game, I always thought Fifa was the best.

Just grabbed it on Steam for 3 freaking dollars and I cant stop playing... wanna see Superman catch a nuke? Flash losing his finger? And much more... wait why are we hating this game in the first place? Battle pass? Just ignore it... Initial price? It would be discounted as any other game after some time.

If a game relies on having a healthy player base then that information should be available so you can make an informed purchase

What happened to that fake game? Did they ever release any new footage, or a game? Any news? (I always suspected it was never game footage, it was real footage with digital terrorists inserted later). I saw two terrible looking games that released in November that looked a lot like it, was one of them actually unrecord? They’re both bodycam games that looked like ass

It’s on sale for a few hours more. Should I get it for PS4 Pro or not? I do not have a PS5 and won’t get one any time soon.

Grabbed Mass Effect as it was on sale on steam, and enjoyed the initial premise, roughly an hour in, but the game keeps crashing every now and then. I have heard a lot about this game and would love to play it, but the crashes require me to restart my laptop every time the game crashes. I don't think the lap is the issue, as it can run heavier games like the Witcher 3.

This was an rpgmaker2003 also know as Cell divine commedia in Japanese by Sharktale Factory Im hoping someone know this game if you know. I wanna talk to you talked about the game also give information to game including the dlc! Honestly this was absolutely intriguing game I ever read through on translation if you know please replay to me!!

Unlike bosses, who are usually meticulously planned out, with multiple phases, forms etc.

Personally, I always liked the wasps from Donkey Kong Country. Their design and functionality is just somehow spot on.

EDIT I thought this was clear in my post, but maybe not. I am not saying there aren't better graphics to be found into today's games. I am saying they don't look a Decade better, they don't look 6 years better. For example, Legend of Zelda OOO came out in 1998, Crysis came out in 2007, that's the same gap between the release of Wild Hunt 3 and now. Skyrim came out in 2011, and 6 years prior to that, same gap as between RDR2 and now, the most graphically amazing game just released was the King King movie tie game. There is an ocean of difference, graphically, between Ocarina of Time and Crysis, between King Kong and Skyrim. You could show your grandma a picture of the two and she'd be able to easily point to the one with better graphics. But if you showed Wild Hunt 3 or RDR2 or Battlefield One next to many or even most big budget graphically cutting edge titles of the day, your gran probably couldn't say which have better graphics. The gulf is REALLY narrow compared to the same time span in the past. And if you look up just about any listing of the most graphically impressive games, RDR2, a 6 year old game, is still near the top of basically every list.

Was recently doing an RDR2 play though and was blown away coming back to it, just how damn good it looks. I remember it looked good, but I mean it looks GOOD. And I remember thinking the same about a year ago when I picked Witcher 3 back up.

Hell star wars battlefront 2 was released in 2017, battlefield 1 was released in 2016, and you’d be hard pressed to find games in their genres released this year that look any better.

I’m not saying games now look bad, they just don’t look a decade better than Witcher 3. I feel like for most of my life video game graphics have been making continuous leaps. I can’t think of any other time since, hell, the N64, when you’d go damn near a decade with the top tier most graphically impressive cutting edge game not really looking much better than those from 6, 7, 9 years prior.

Are there graphical powerhouses out there I’m just not aware of?

Control is the only one I can really think of, and control looks great, I just don’t think it looks that much better than say rdr2, maybe slightly better lighting system? But it’s hard to compare since almost all of control takes place indoors.

I recently finished Silent Hill 2 after two decades of being told its one of the best horror games ever made, I can finally confim that statment.

Whats that game you still havnt played but really should?

Let me know which you think was a turnoff.

I get people being surprised I have never played Minecraft once in my life. This is of course a question for more avid gamers, however most people have played something at least once. I love simulation games too which is the most surprising thing. I grew up playing all the sim cities, and tons of other build it yourself games. I was the prime age for Minecraft when it came out, just never wanted to play it.

What have you not played or tried? Almost avoiding it even?

Back in the day Areo was one of my favorite Blockbuster rentals. With all this talk about the Retro Engine and Sunsoft license holders interested in bringing their old games to current day platforms, I was eagerly awaiting an announcement, but I guess it flew by me. Much to my surprise when I was browsing the PS5 store a few minures ago, I saw it listed. It was apparently released last month and it's a port of the GBA remake. This makes me so happy.

Edit: Apparently in addition to the GBA version, there's also ports of the Sega Genesis/SNES version as well. In addition Aero 2 is also available.

I'm not into classic style BG games, so is NWN2 like Classic BG?

I was looking for some Games that I might want to get only to find that all of those Games are INSANELY large for the content they offer

After looking into it I found that 90% of that is just from high resolution textures and wav audio files... I'm sorry but I don't want that

As a Person that couldn't care less about Graphics I really don't want that a Game fills up so much space with some stupid images plastered onto a wall (And I say that with 8TB of storage).

Games already have multiple Download options, why not allow Me to choose between the Game with full resolution textures and wav audio, and another version that uses 2K (2048x2048) textures with FLAC Audio while keeping everything else the same

Sure it would be extra work, but batch scaling down textures and changing out WAV files with FLAC files isn't that difficult (Since I already did that with multiple Games. Problem is just that tons of Games don't allow it).

And I also think it would make sense from a business standpoint as I personally just don't buy some Games when I see how much storage they take up for the content they give Me.

A major reason why I don't buy Call Of Duty games anymore is because the Game size is insane for the short campaign and the repetitive multiplayer

Yes games can look great without having 4K (4096x4096) textures and because People will disagree on that I think we should give People both and just allow People to choose what they want to use

Edit:When I say "4K, 2K and Full HD textures" I mean 4K=4096, 2K=2048, and Full HD=1080 or 1440. Yes I know it doesn't make complete sense but it was late when I made thi spost and I was tired. Should have worded it more clearly in retrospective
