    Release date for cyberpunk life sim 'Nivalis Nights' announced

    It's a completely different genre, and it already has a lot I don't like about gaming (first person view, cyberpunk setting). Terraria is a 2D platformer/sandbox crafting hybrid, clearly based on Minecraft, aiming for 2D experience, which ended up being superior. The very comparison between...

    Release date for cyberpunk life sim 'Nivalis Nights' announced

    Terraria is much better than whatever this is.

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    As long as I can pirate it, I don't care. I'm paying solely to support the devs and publisher, as I've known since forever that digital (and even physical media in a sense) is merely a glorified license. When it comes to physical media, it's simply harder to revoke the DRM, since it's tied to...

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    I don't agree with the idea, but it's been coming for a long time and it does not affect me at all. I've been digital only since 2006 (PS3). As long as there is GoG, piracy and emulation, it's a non-issue. Sorry for those of you out there who enjoy clutter collecting though.

    Pixel art MMO ‘Soulbound’ gets Steam Early Access release date

    Horde control games are so ZzZzZzZ.... Hard pass. Graphics are kinda nice though.

    Thoughts on the world cup?

    Like I said, it does not "feel fixed". For all intents and purposes, it might as well be, but it's fun enough as it is.

    Thoughts on the world cup?

    I like watching the matches, and it definitely does not feel 100% fixed. IDGAF about the political subcontext, and I see zero ads (other than the short ones from the channel itself, which I promptly mute) due to watching on YouTube (with adblockers, as any sane human using the internet should...

    Homebrew Homebrew app Sphaira - hbmenu replacement

    I've seen both repos (tom and kefir) before, while sorting the forks by "last updated", and neither have any really significant changes. Kefircfw focus on small fixes and kefir-specifc additions, while tom is adding minor features. I haven't checked the others yet, nor do I intend to atm...

    Homebrew Homebrew app Sphaira - hbmenu replacement

    So, is it "dead" or not? The kefircfw updates were pretty minimal TBH.

    Homebrew Homebrew app Sphaira - hbmenu replacement

    So.... did anyone pick this up after ITJ vanished or is it dead? The most recently updated forks are from the kefircfw team. I like this much better than Hbmenu, and it'd be a shame to return to it. Not really in the mood to learn CPP and the inner details of libnx to keep this going atm, nor...

    What do you want to see in the next Nintendo Direct?

    - New 3D Mario, really overdue by now. - Paper Mario or any new Mario RPG, even if it's unlikely due to brothership. - New F-Zero. - A cool New IP. As for what I know I won't get: - Pokémon World (will never happen, but whatever). - Substantial new content for MK World (MK8DX + DLC is still...

    Acer announces the Nitro Blaze Link, a streaming-only gaming handheld

    Buy a GameSir pad for Android, use an old phone. Heck, buy any decent snapdragon or mediatek. Way more useful than "streaming only" devices, with better specs to boot. I have yet to find a "Raison d'être" for these electronics. Maybe to fleece a few gullible consumers I guess.

    Steam Deck gets a major price bump, more than 40% increase for US buyers

    PS3 + Wii U is a LOT of gaming for cheap TBH. Those Deck prices are hysterical. Ayaneo / AYN etc, which were already much better, just got even more attractive.

    Pokemon Platinum PC port gets a surprise release

    Of course, but I don't have the $ do do my own RAID NAS atm, with storage expensive as it is. Maybe in the future, but I'll keep the cloud for extra redundancy. Online storage is just yet another reasonably good, accessible backup method to me. The main one is local HDDs (A 26TB, 8TB and 5 TB...
