- ^ yeah, wasted talent but listening to him talk he just takes ideas from others. Perhaps he was just a one hit wondermugwart
- ^ The best of us take inspiration from around us all the time. He recognized what was noteworthy, and how/what to build upon.ETM
- And he is classy enough to credit back his inspirations openly.ETM

I love these things even if I can barely get my head around how the fuck they work.
Ever wondered how all that shit in your videogame gets rendered?

It's boggling to me just How Much Goes On x times every second.

I typically avoid BR games but gave this a go last night and really enjoyed it. Kind of a mix between Overwatch with its character classes and CoDs feel/gunplay. Felt very polished.
- Played on PC, btw. Not sure if the console experience is better/worse.duckseason
- some of those abilities look like cheating...BabySnakes
- None really feel too OP just yet. I'm sure a meta will develop soon.duckseason
- something about him being a living legend?cannonball1978
- I'm gonna say no just based on the stupid soundtrack turning me off.cannonball1978
- Yeah Respawn really knows how to make a satisfying shooterNutter
- cannonball, that song is only in the trailer. the real soundtrack is great, completely different.Milan

So Hitman is free on PS+ this month. A good tip is that the levels are playable in Hitman 2 with added gameplay features.
To play the levels in Hitman 2 do the following:
- Download Hitman from Ps+ store
- Open the game and go to the ingame store and click on "Redeem legacy pack". This will open the Playstation store and you redeem the legacy pack for free.
- Delete Hitman
- Download Hitman 2 demoAnd thats it. Slightly convoluted but then again I don't think any other games let you play the old levels in the new game.
- Am I understanding correctly? It's all playable from within the demo?duckseason
- If you redeem the legacy pack in Hitman (1), then yes all Hitman (1) levels can be played within the Hitman 2 demoNutter

https://steamcommunity.com/id/ep…- There's a QBN channel on steam - I've not maintained it for ages now - perhaps needs some new blood?Nairn

CRT vs LCD screen
When reminiscing over old games, if you remember them better looking than they appear now, is because CRT screens blur better
- Most emulators can simulate that CRT pattern very well. Fun times for sure.monospaced

Remember Dots...? The game a few people on here were playing a year or so ago on mobile... i just finished it, 3 stars on every level... not a brag.. just a demonstration of how empty my life is and how I have chosen to waste it over the last year or so... should probably go outside a little more and talk to some more human beings.
- do you mean Two Dots? And you have reached level 1910? fucking fair play to you ... i'm on level 1554Bluejam
- Dots & Co, by the same people. End level was 550... right maybe I'm onto Two Dots to fill the dot shaped hole in my life!dee-dubs
- Before you get a life... did you beat it on the secret level?cannonball1978
- link?Krassy
- BTW, I finished Jotline, then they released new levels, and then I finished it again. LOL. Now waiting again, after clearing 635 levels.Krassy
- Secret level???dee-dubs

So, how many times have you completed GTA V?
- In communist russia, GTA V completes you.mantrakid
- 0 - Despite enjoying it, the only Rockstar game I've ever "finished" is RDR1.duckseason
- 2 times. but shared both play throughs with my bro / housemate at the time.inteliboy
- 1 tho, unless you count all the shit that comes after the credits roll in which case 0, cuz once i had millions in cash i focussed purely on psychopathy.mantrakid

I hate this type of deception in video games industry... i.e. showing a much better version in the demo versions and then the final product is dumbed down.
- omg they removed those extra bowls ... life too short to let this crap get you downBluejam
- They removed way MORE. The demo versions looked very cinematic and lush. The final version looks cartoony and cheap compared to demos.NBQ00
- I'm exaggerating a bit but the downgrades are still substantial. Details can make or break the look & feel of a game and the demos were much better looking.NBQ00
- never preorderMilan
- adding more details = longer load times, and people complained about the load times in the final game.Nutter
- Perhaps there were also console limitations, many effects by 4 players at once could potentially make the game stutter or lower the framerate in general.Nutter
- uninstalled as soon as i heard it can turn my ps4 into a brick. hoping to hear of a fix. game has potential, once they actually complete the game. 6/10jaylarson
- ea messed up swbf2, now this, think ill take a break from ea games for a whilejaylarson
- That's what EA doespango
- We managed to have fun with 8-bit graphics, I think you can handle this.i_monk

can't fucking wait:
- I suck ass at the Dead Souls style games, but this does look good. I'm more looking forward to Ghost of Tsushima.elahon
- I cant wait to die over and over and over and over...DRIFTMONKEY
- Some sites are saying this is a bit more approachable than previous Dead Souls games.duckseason
- and others are saying it's way harder...Milan
- I hope it's hardercannonball1978
- i think vaati said the difficulty came in learning not to play it like a souls game. then i had to turn off his video. too many spoilers. can't wait!jaylarson
- vaatividya's take:
https://www.youtube.…jaylarson - Approachable in that they offer things like a combat tutorial and the ability to pause the game. Everyone is still saying it's brutally difficult.duckseason
- yup. this one ive been watching for a whileplash
- t-minus 10 hours...jaylarson

This is looking better and better, too:

Whatever happened to mobile gaming? It was supposed to overtake all consoles. And here I have my fancy new Samsung Galaxy S10 with 8GB Ram and a CPU almost on par with some laptops and yet all the mobile games (on iOS and Android) still suck and are stuck at the same level they were 5-10 years ago.
There were only a handful triple-A mobile games like "Modern Combat" and EA Sports titles but that's about it.
I just don't understand the game industry and developers: Here you have a massive market, yet the games are still mostly "stupid" casual games.
iOS & Android could easily compete with Nintendo Switch if the devs developed or ported games to mobile phones. But no...
- The use modes prevent meaningful contentcannonball1978
- interface is useless on touchscreen unfortfadein11
- ^
It all boils down to buttons, or a lack thereofNairn - Small screen + no controller = sucks.section_014
- The only games suited to smartphones are the stupid casual ones. COD on an iPhone is like After Effects on an iPad Pro.MrT
- Turns out people won't pay triple-A prices for mobile games. At all. They want $3 or free with in-app purchases only.monospaced
- I think a lot of gamers prefer their television sets and home audio anyway. And of course, the big console players fought back hard with innovation.monospaced
- ^ what mono said. Even $3 is too much for most. Has ruined the entire mobile gaming industry. Micro-payments and all that rubbish is in every damn iOS game.inteliboy
- users with hardware like s10+ are not the norm and the market is dependent on pay2win etc. because apps have to be freemekk
- mobile gaming is trash and will always be. Get a switch if you want mobile gaming.mekk
- Nintendo cut them off at the pass. If Samsung (and then Apple, a year later) built Switch-like controllers it might change...i_monk
- we've had stupid ass controllers for smartphones for years now and everyone failed miserably.mekk

I think this mode is going to be a blast -
- I find it amazing how all these devs are blatantly copying a formula.... and no one gives a fuck.inteliboy
- what do you mean by formula? I like the game - i like the style of mode this is and prefer the gameplay over fortnite or the like.rodzilla
- you like the formulamonospaced
- FPS modes have been copied in all FPS games since forever.BabySnakes
