Yea, I take pictures like crazy. I sold a CPU and made sure to take pictures. I had a guy try to return one and I ask for images of the CPU. That I wanted to compare the SKUs and Manufacturing numbers. I also wanted to see if he de-lidded it.
Dude, said, "Sorry it works."
The Megaman Arm was a preorder bonus. So, Capcom just finally made it available to late buyers.
As for, MGSV, I love that it basically became Splinter Cell and got praised. Which is deserved. As a stealth series, Splinter Cell was vastly superior. Sure the story wasn't as wacky or fun...but...
"I doubt Konami would ever work with Kojima again."
I prefer that wording because it's more accurate. The dude missed timelines and went over budget constantly.
I actually think it might be a scenario where only certain titles will run 100% depending on the system resources they need. And, that the work is really going to need a new FPGA. However, if anyone can figure it out...it's Robert.
I basically went full retro at this point. I play some new stuff from time to time...but there's countless stuff from previous gens that I never got around to or had the money for when I was younger. So, it's nice to finally have time. Also, I find they did more interesting things back then when...
If you do go the "all RGB route/Component" the HD Retro cables are great. Also, Extron Crosspoints are great Component/RGB switchers. They are on eBay all the time and can be had for under $100. Just make sure you are not getting screwed by shipping. They are big devices...but image loss is...
I'd have to guess that the Pics 2 and 4 are the Insurrection Cables. As I believe they are shielded. I don't remember. That's honestly the biggest deal with cables. Even cheaper ones can be better if they are at least shielded. I tend to buy HD Retrovision cables and have gotten them for all my...
They're great TVs. I have one in storage. I nicknamed it, Cherry. HAHA. Currently, my main is a 36FV310. However, when that goes, I'll probably swap to the D or the iArt.
Heads up. The game installs Epic Online Services even if you cancel out of the install. You can uninstall it and the game will run. Might not have online features though. Which, doesn't bother me. I don't like playing online anyway.
Honestly, if you're interested even in the slightest...I'd just start buying the Nano now. That thing keeps going up in price every few months. That's the one constant in the MiSTer world where all the other things can get revisions and updates...but the core is always the DE10 Nano. The price...
I just think it's hilarious. I got one of these close to 20 years ago. When it was still "new." So, I got to use it during it's prime as my main monitor setup in College. Everyone was "upgrading" to LCDs at the time, so I got the monitor for under $200. It was my main until 2012 or so. When the...
Honestly, I felt gaming has been in a drought for a few years now. I just haven't been impressed with the majority of new games. However, that just gave me an excuse to go retro. So, I spent the last few years building up my hardware and equipment for doing so. There's tons of games out there...
Got my Logitech G29 up and running with the Outrun core on MiSTer. Took a minute to figure out and a happy accident to fix the issue with the brakes...but finally got it working. If you're interested in obtaining a cheap wheel I really recommend using Facebook Marketplace. I was able to get a...
I bought the Sega Saturn Virtua Stick Pro HSS-0130 and I'm using a daemonbyte adapter to PC/Mister. I swapped the buttons out for Sanwa. I got the stick for a decent discount because the seller lied about it being modded. It had a supergun installed into the stick. Which, meant the side was cut...
Honestly, they could do it more closely to Rondo and it would probably do well enough. Rondo is my favorite of the series. It's the right mix of old school with a save system. I've been playing the X68000 one on MiSTer and that's pretty nice too. It's hard as hell though. But, it's got a save...
? It's Silent Hill. Of course it should be muddy and depressing.
I'm actually playing through SH2 for the first time on PS2. Since basically building my ideal retro gaming setup, it's been a real hoot.
Just get an old PSX with Xstation installed if you want that. Or, emulate it. Personally, I like the direction they are going with this "remaster." It's very respectful of the OG look while also being rather modern. It def looks like a "I remember it this way."
I already sold my Rift S and have no plans to buy anything else from them. I will be fine with abandoning my account/purchases. I didn't buy that much from them anyway. Crossing my fingers for a new Index announcement or if Sony's upcoming VR set will support PC.
Correct. I delayed starting Cold Steel when the Fan Translations were announced for Crossbell. Currently finishing up Trails 3RD. Which will lead me right into this. I've heard good things about this game...apparently it's pretty dark. I should have my Steam Deck by then. Which, will make being...
Some people prefer the tidiness of "one platform." That shouldn't be dictated by a company but by the consumer's choice. I only support two launchers myself, Steam and GOG. If it ain't on those, it ain't on my PC. Not to say I haven't tried others...but when you game via Steam Big Box and...
If you re-create the folders on the SD, it should just automatically use the drive. I haven't used USB in awhile as I was trying to keep a "clean look" for my MiSTer setup by some having a 512gb SD card. Though, I'll have to re-think things once the PSX/Saturn cores are finalized. Though, you...
I don't despise graphics. It's actually the poor pacing of modern games that's kinda put a damper on my enjoyment. I generally despise Open World and consider that a warning sign.
I wouldn't say I'm fed up with it...but I def decided not to make an effort to care about modern PC gaming. Mainly, with the separation of storefronts and places trying to spread my money around multiple places...I'm just not interested. So, it has helped me focus more on going back in the...
As I quickly approach 40 (Currently late 30s), I found myself more inclined to play older games from when I was a kid. I don't really consider it a "mid life crisis" or anything of that sort. It's mostly because the games were designed short. So, the challenge is high but the length short...
