Well, less than a week from many of us firing up our clients of choice to download the next iteration of the Smash Bros series and rabid fans (and fanboys) are firing up left right and center. Not particually fond of this event but it does bring a smile to my face to think of one thing. Almost everybody is excited for Brawl. A little of each of nintendo's franchises have been tossed into the game with the upmost attention and care given to every little detail. Now the thing is, many people are having problems passing the time!

So, here are some ways to pass the time!

Nintendo Wii Owners

Play through Super Mario Galaxy as Luigi! NTSC Console owners: Play No More Heroes. Play Smash Bros Melee.
Give NiGHTS a shot. Try Sonic and The Secret Rings. Throw the Sonic and The Secret Rings dvd in the garbage or shredder. Fondle yourself.

Xbox 360 Owners

BURNOUT PARADISE (that's what I'm doing!). Eternal Sonata. Halo 3 or Call of Duty 4 on live. Mass Effect. Assassin's Creed. DOWNLOAD REZ HD TOMORROW! Play Sonic The Hedgehog. Throw the Sonic The Hedgehog dvd in the garbage or shredder. Fondle yourself.

PS3 Owners

Play a ported 360 Game (KIDDING, although look at the 360 list for some fine multiplatform games!). Play Uncharted. Play your old God of War games. Play the GTHD Demo for the millionth time. Missed this on the 360 list but I'll let you PS3 owners have this one: Play the Orange Box. Play UT3. Play Sonic The Hedgehog. Throw the Sonic The Hedgehog dvd in the garbage or shredder. Fondle yourself. Install Linux.

PC Owners

Play N. Play Saturn's NiGHTS in an emulator. Call of Duty 4. The Orange Box (TF2 Online). Play UT3. Play Crysis. Fail to play Crysis online. Install Windows Vista. Throw the Windows Vista dvd in the garbage or shredder. Fondle yourself (with porn!). Install Linux.

DS Owners

Too many good games to name. Just play them.

PSP Owners

Play Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness. That should keep you busy for a good long ass while. FF Tactics for those that only play SRPGs with Final Fantasy Characters.

And last but not least, a bit of torture for the road.

That was a great post Ashura!

Dr. Huckstable APPROVES! I busied myself watching Naruto fillers and all the Shippueden eps till the most recent one, then played the hell outta my DS games, and my Wii games. Currently trying to finish SMG and NMH. I'm more addicted to NMH...I dunno why >_>...since SMG oozes more quality. Who knows...probably cuz I could kill ruthlessly.

    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
