We're working on a piece about #retro darlings — those pieces of #tech that refuse to die because of communities that have sprung up around them to keep them alive. We're looking at #Pebble / @rebble, #Sony#aibo, #chumby, and various retro #gaming#consoles and #handhelds, as well as numerous #retrocomputing platforms — what are some other beloved devices and dedicated folks and communities that should be on our radar? 🤘💾🤘
People should really, stop speculating and giving too much value on rumors.
Wait till uncle Phil clears things out.
In the meantime... enjoy gaming, no matter what platform you're using 🎮
The more people tell the same story, the more real it will start to sound. There is absolutely no need to spread chaos.
Whatever the outcome may be, it is exceedingly unlikely that you'll be negatively affected (you can keep playing).
I'm not sure if it will pan out this way, but it feels like the #steamdeck is one of the most important devices of late for #pcgaming and #linuxgaming when you think about the AAA #gamedevelopment process.
So historically it's easier to develop for #consoles as you have a common spec to develop against so you know if it's going to run well. The deck easily could become the PCs common spec, giving a single lowest denominator that also can be used to verify #linux compatibility as well.
Personally I’m not sure why anyone is shocked by the RT implementation in Forza. The reality is current gen consoles simply are not powerful enough to produce true ray tracing. Heck most gaming pcs still can’t! I look at the marketing for Ray Tracing on modern consoles like the marketing for HD on 7th gen consoles. Few games hit 720p even fewer hit 1080p. PS4 and Xbox one hit those targets better. Personally I think 4k 60 was good enough for now. #gaming#consoles#tech#shareyourgames
As time goes by it’s only getting more difficult to find #Korean releases of older generation #game#consoles, so when I do find one, I get quite excited. Even if it’s for a game I’ll absolutely and forever horribly suck at 😅.
@majorlinux "Certification issues" here means that the game is in such rough shape that it constantly crashes or is otherwise effectively unplayable, right? If console red tape is really the issue, why aren't they launching it on PC in the meantime?
@majorlinux Ha, my inability to clear my backlog helped me here. Playing games a year after release seems to be the best choice. So many games gets cool updates.
D'après une étude menée par moi-même sur un échantillon de 4 personnes, 72% des mastonautes sont réparateurs de #consoles#retro. Est-ce que l'un ou l'une de vous aurait un conseil (tuto, vidéo, etc.) pour m'aider à ravoir cette vieille Game Boy abandonnée ? Merci d'avance !
@niavy@CorentinLamy En effet, il y a quelques chaînes de vidéos qui semblent tricher (ces vidéos un peu esthétiques en mode ASMR), mais il y a bien plus de passionnés qui réparent des machines.
