Love me some old games.

I bought one of the anbernic rg 351 devices 2 or 3 years ago (before I got a steam deck), and I still use it. It’s a nifty device with some cool community support for firmware and ports.
An iPhone doesn’t have buttons or a dpad for comfortable gaming. A steam deck doesn’t have the portability that these devices have. But it’s not for everyone, and could be landfill for most people.


Competing with the console prices is not likely. Not only will they probably sell hardware at a loss, but they step on Sony and Microsoft territory, with whom they have deals to bringing games to steam.
Selling at a loss works for consoles because games will recoup the loss. For pc there is no guarantee. If the steam box is that cheap, corporate sector will order steam machines (by the 100s or 1000s), without guarantee to recoup the loss.
Doom 3. Moody at the start, but when the guitars hit it’s just amazing. It really summarizes the game where it’s moody and dark at the start, but you rip and tear later on.
Those interested in taking Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown out for a mobile spin can pre-register now via the App Store and Google Play. On its release, The Lost crown will be available to try for free, before the full game can be unlocked with a single in-app purchase.
Knowing Ubisoft, I’ll wait until I know for sure there is no other iap


Everything was under delivered since the early 90s by Peter. I think het just gets off from the attention. Considering most of the projects were a financial success nonetheless, he probably saw this as a reason to keep doing it.
This really bit him in the end though with godus. A failed god game where he went to kickstarter for money. I guess releasing an under promised game when you ask for money before making it, promising all sorts of things and never delivering it is not really good PR.


TL;DW: Mario blinks at a set interval even after level loads to prove legendary Japanese speedrunner of old, who even had a timing sequence named after him, of cheating by splicing. Even in the run that gave him his fame.
Quite interesting video showing different ways people can prove a run is spliced.


For the future maybe. For games that were sold one day, they would have to either keep supporting it, or release server software.
It is up to the gamers to keep supporting this practice in the future.
I can still play Unreal Tournament '99 and 2004 even though the servers are offline. I can even still play it online with the server ip and even use the server browser with fan mods.
You can’t say the same for the crew when it goes offline.

Capcom has implemented your product on their back catalogue of games and it’s causing performance drops, crashes and has broken many popular mods people use to make these games run better.
The PC community is very angry and has noticed the implementation of your product. It is being mentioned in a ton of negative steam reviews.
You should be aware that there is likely a huge negative PR storm coming your way and possibly offer Capcom advice on how to implement your product properly as you’ve angered a lot of people. It wouldn’t surprise me if big PC YouTubers like Digital Foundry pick up on the issue and make their many subscribers aware.

Curious, what action do you need from us? And why do you blame us that someone use our software? Someone use, we do not push to use it. What is our guilt you think?
And why are you so sure that all that you reported belongs to our software?
Maybe you are so angered because you can’t use the cheats anymore?
Best reply is always be a dick. Fuck corporations that act like this
Edit: it seems like the thread is deleted now.
Are you implying doom is not palatable? It’s a matter of taste, but of all the old FPS games, Doom is one of the most replayable in my opinion. Even without nostalgia goggles. The gameplay is tight, the weapons are timeless. The only thing that dates it other than the obvious graphics, is the level design can be a little tedious.
Tomb raider was never limited to a console family. Metroid is only on Nintendo devices. And even Metroid was never a phenomenon like tomb raider was in the 90s. Tomb raider also had a big revival with the modern trilogy on PC and consoles. And now the remastered classic games too.
The only Metroid I remember having any real hype was prime, and that was on the least popular console of that generation (of the big 3).
