JSRF was an original Xbox game, not an Xbox 360 game, so outside of possibly some sort of revival of CXBX, with modifications because of how CXBX worked, youll be waiting for quite a while most likely.
Raytracing with cel shading would probably look prettt bad, by the way. It could be okay with reflections, maybe, but the style of cel shading helps simpler effects look better.
You can already emulate it in 4k with Xemu.
Still waiting on the return of Gungage.
Battlefield 4 was the last time Battlefield felt like Battlefield, but only after a bunch of fixes and DLC. Nowadays its a completely different game.
Battlefield is more about squad play and objectives than CoD is. CoD has much faster player movement, Battlefield has slower player movement but it has vehicles to compensate on the bigger maps.
Meaningless. Everyone knows this game is going to launch a mess, just like the last like, 5 Battlefield games.
The graphics were extremely groundbreaking for the time. Unless you lived through it, it would be hard to understand. Its hard to compare it to any modern graphics advancement because modern graphics advancements are all such tiny visual improvements, its not the same as the massive leaps early 3D graphics had.
Even a 25% tariff on the import value of a physical is still only like $0.20, even if it had a 100% tariff it would only increase the price by like $2 because tariffs are not based on final sale price, it is based on the import value which is way lower than MSRP. MSRP is set to give importers profit after paying import fees, tariffs, shipping from the port to distributors, etc.
If someone is paying 25% more based on MSRP “because of tariffs,” you are 100% getting scammed.
Some games were programmed with the hinge gap in mind, so squeezing both screens together can lead to unexpected timing when objects can move between both screens, for example Metroid Prime Pinball.
Right now maybe, but Lemmy is open source, and anyone could fork it to add this functionality.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this started happening at Lemmy too. Its a lot easier to control what kind of content is on a platform when you do something like this.
Now, I don’t particularly think this is a good idea, but I can see the benefit of this as well. People have the freedom to upvote whatever they choose, even if I think they are dumb for doing it, and they shouldn’t have to worry about anyone other than law enforcement or lawyers (in extreme edge cases) using that information against them.
Oh boy, I can’t wait for top end PCs to barely be able to run the games that look only slightly better than a PS3 game!
Waiter waiter, more poorly optimized games, please!
While I definitely agree the overall best design goes to the Atari 2600, this comes in close second for me:
This bad boy (or girl, rather) is the Casio Loopy. Yes, Casio, the company primarily known for making wristwatches. This console was only released in Japan, and when it launched it had a target demographic of girls and young women. The console came with a built-in sticker printer, and the games were woman-targeted games in genres like romance, fashion, and life simulation (like Animal Crossing). Only 10 games were ever made for the Loopy, by the way. Its biggest failure and reason for not selling well was being a console that had games that looked like the SNES but having to directly compete with the PS1 and N64, as well as the replaceable sticker cartridges being very expensive.
Now, I am a man, and I am clearly not a part of the target demographic of this console. The games are entirely uninteresting to me, except maybe the Animal Crossing-like game “I Want A Room In Loopy Town.” But something about the curved shape of the console and its cool purple hue speak to me. The black cover for the sticker ejection port has me imagining a newer version playing an animated logo on that part if a small screen was behind it. The absurdly massive Eject button just looks like it gives the most satisfying “kerchunk” when you press it to eject a cartridge.
In third place I’d have to give a shout out to the Apple iMac G3, even though I really dislike Apple products and its neither a game console.or made for gaming in general, something about the white and bold color combo just looks really cool. The mouse was really bad though. Got a bit of that Frutiger Aero look.
Hope NieR Rein becomes playable again. Would be nice. Private servers, anything.
This is interesting. As AI continues to mature and advance, I wonder how they will be able to overcome AIs current limitations. I wonder how long it will be until people would even be able to tell if something is AI generated or not. One of the benefits of AI in art is that sometimes it can suggest or generate something that is unexpected, or something that when a human sees it makes them say “why didn’t I think of that.” Which, I mean, its because you are a human and it is software. Future AI improvment will certainly be interesting.
Also, this sounds pretty good. The guy who programmed it interviewed game developers about what they wanted and needed in game development. Then he created this tool that helps them quickly iterate from a starting point. I hope this can help some studios create games that have actually fun gameplay, because gaming has taken itself almost too seriously in recent years, with many games trying to tell a hidden message instead of just being fun to play.
Eh, I have spent about a year on Lemmy and I have seen way, way more calls of direct violence and inciting violence here in the last few months on Lemmy than I ever saw in multiple years on Reddit. If I had known how Lemmy would turn out, I wouldn’t have come here. It was cool in the beginning when the people were still nice, but Lemmy users have become so aggressive lately. I can see why someone might consider Lemmy a platform that incites violence, the users give plenty of ammo for that.
I think you got hit with a wrong timing thing. Almost like poking a hornets nest, you might have thought you were being helpful or whatever, but things are so volatile there that it wasn’t the right time.
Helldivers 2 is different. The game already released, and then Sony tried adding PS Account requirement after many people had already bought the game.
Forza Horizon 5 has not released on PlayStation yet, and anyone that currently plays the game does so on platforms that they do have a Microsoft Account. For example, playing the game on Steam still requires you to link a Microsoft Account.
The Helldivers 2 things wasn’t that the game needed an account, it was because it was added on later. Its also different from games like Horizon Forbidden West or God of War Ragnarok because both of those are singleplayer games and should not require any kind of account to play the game as they do not have online gameplay.
