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

    First they drop PC ports, now Sony expects us to pay $1000+ for a PS6 with no disc drive (and thus limited backwards compatibility) and $100+ for digital only games that can't be resold or lent out. What's next? Having to send them a video of you on your hands and knees begging to give them...

    Are you excited for GTA6 and are you going to buy it upon release?

    I haven't really decided yet. I think Rockstar has likely lost their soul and that it probably won't be up to par with GTA4/5 despite the hype and massive budget. I have no interest in multiplayer, and I'm not sure Rockstar has much interest in single player given how much GTA5's multiplayer...

    Let's celebrate Barack Obama Appreciation Day

    Obama promised hope and change... and then didn't deliver much beyond being Bush's 3rd and 4th terms. It's a betrayal that we still see today with "both parties are the same" rhetoric. He disbanded the progressive movements that helped get him elected immediately after becoming president and...

    "Quest 64" recompilation project is now available in alpha stages

    Ah, Quest 64, the "N64 has RPGs too" game that I played while everyone else got FF7 and the rest of PS1's legendary RPG library. I'm still upset that the game required a memory pack to save, and I wasn't able to really even play it for a few months after I got it until I saved up enough money...

    Stereoscopic 3D simulation software?

    Stereoscopic 3d works by giving each eye a separate image. Unless you put your head so close to the screen each eye can get a different view (Nintendo Labo, Google Cardboard), there is no way to simulate that on a normal display. One of the technologies they used to use for stereoscopic 3d...

    Please teach me to not care...

    The game isn't even out yet. Anybody who has an opinion and hasn't played it has an uninformed opinion that isn't worth listening to.

    Anyone upgrading to Windows 11?

    If your PC doesn't support Win11, there is a way to convert Windows 10 to the IoT LTSC (Internet of things long term service branch), without losing any data. That gives you Win 10 updates until 2029. Otherwise if you sign up for a Microsoft account, you can get updates until around this time...

    Tesla stock

    My cousin has never invested before, but he owns Tesla stock. Conservative media is saying that it's the stock to buy, and a lot of folks are looking very rich off of it right now. Recently, Elon bought $2 billion dollars of Tesla stock, which caused his existing shares to increase by $12...

    Gaming Spiritual Successor To Parasite Eve Confirmed with 2026 Launch Date

    This is from the developer who did "Frontier Hunter: Erza's Wheel of Fortune", which was a pretty solid Metroidvania. I am cautiously optimistic.

    Plants vs Zombies Replanted, the remaster of the original Plants vs Zombies, receives heavy backlash days before its release among early players

    The 360 version was great. Full controller support, co-op, HD widescreen, and extra content. I have doubts that modern EA could make something as good.

    Costco to drop Xbox products entirely in the US.

    Yes, letting Microsoft buy Activation was totally a good move that benefited both companies and gaming as a whole....

    Anbernic RG DS teased, a sub-$100 dual-screen retro handheld

    The DS/3DS form factor is still unparrelelled for travel. It's small enough to fit in a pocket, and you don't need a bulky case since the design protects the screens. The Switch and Steam Deck are too bulky, as is a controller+clip for a phone, especially for air travel, and that's before...
