Considering most (if not all) Game Pass games are UWP in everything but the executable, I failed to see how it's enviable except for the privilege of playing the game a little early. Cheap isn't always better.

You can't even mod the game without the developer's involvement, something which goes against the nature of PC itself.
This can't be said enough! (y)

By the way so right now I have 19GB total of storage from Steam. Is that only used for screenshots and stuff? And how do you get more storage?

Is it dependent on how high your Site level is?

So far I have only used up about 0.4 GN out of my 19GB. And I have been using Steam for 5 years now
Cloud storage on Steam is its own separate thing right?
Hello, most part of those 19GB are pictures/screenshots, yeah, you can find them in userdata > 760 > (number) > and here you will find them both compressed and uncompressed, if you are like me, you will have hundreds and hundreds of pics haha

Hmh seems I still can get Game Pass ultimate for 1 euro! But... only have 0.09 to my name for at least few weeks... unless one can use paypal, since I have that google reward money there!

Edit, you can use paypal! BUT not actually use paypal funds but have to use a bank card and well fuck.

I’m annoyed for your sake.
Is there really no solution people ? I guess gifting 1 euro to your Paypal won’t work.

Ah no, I have 3 euro on my paypal but can't use it.XD Just have to wait till I have money in my bank and try again. Seems the only way is either use bankcard directly, or use paypal which also uses the bankcard.

Due to recent exchanges here and personal rethinking I'm wondering how I should sort my steam categories.
1100+ games, I have no idea how to sort that shit.

1100+ games, I have no idea how to sort that shit.
I'm using following categories:

  • Asap (for games I want to play next)
  • Backlog
  • Completed
  • Abandonned
  • Multiplayer
  • Play Again
  • Finish later
  • Endless (for games without ending or high replay value, eg rogue-likes, arcade games, Dirt Rally, TW Warhammer etc)

I'm so sick of getting headaches everytime I'm updating my nvidia drivers.

I've used the suggested way by using the DDU program. But after uninstalling the driver, I always get stuck on this screen after restarting Windows.



The only fix is by reinstalling Windows, so I can make it into safe mode and finally install the driver to completely fix the issue. I only update my driver 2-3 times a year and it's always a nightmare each time.

Ouch, after looking into it a little more, dynamic categories aren't worth shit. In visual novel I have JRPG, DRPG, Adventure games... basically anything that has a little bit of reading is a visual novel now.
People grasp on genres is stressing me out.

texhnolyze Really? Something is really, really wrong there. (Well, thanks Mr. Obvious! lol) I mostly just do an in-place Nvidia update and once or twice a year i'll boot safe mode for a DDU cleanup and driver install. I've never had that problem, reinstall windows after a driver update? I'd end up having an aneurysm!

How are people playing Just Dance nowadays? Microsoft seems not to sell Kinect anymore, how does the Xbox register dance movements? I am asking since my daughter loves do dance and I thought maybe I should buy a console with Just Dance

Downloading my CoD MW promo copy I got from Acti on Batte.net. Hope the campaign is good. Got lots to play right now between Game Pass (PC and Xbox), CoD MW, Steam backlog, Disco Elysium, Destiny 2, PS4 backlog, GOG backlog and more.

Also really interested in buying Moons of Madness as I am really interested in space horror and the game is made by a Norwegian company I know.

Waiting for those EGS exclusives to hit Steam is very easy.

Is that official? Why not Sega?
The NSW version has the same publisher and developer

Also not SEGA because they aren't involved in the project according to that polygon article

Beyond that, there are no further details about what to expect; Forever Entertainment didn’t announce platforms or a developer. When we reached out to Sega for additional info, a representative for Sega of America referred us to Forever Entertainment, saying it wasn’t involved in the project. That’s not as unusual as it might sound, as a number of Sega-owned properties in development are being created with seemingly little involvement from Sega itself — the Deep Silver-published Shenmue 3 and DotEmu-published Streets of Rage 4, for example.

What timing, my bank sent me a new card.:D So not only could I now add a bankcard to my paypal but I also sent my paypal money to my bank. So I can get 1 euro xbox ultimate pass AND can get a cheap bottle of wine too!:D

Unless there isn't some problem... paypal wanted to do something by doing two charges on my bankaccount but I don't have enough even for those, but it seems more for transferring from my bank to paypal, so hopefully it wont cause any issues.

Aaah the troubles of being poor and trying to something that only costs ONE DAMN EURO!XD

On everything from the Wii to the XB-One.

Try here for Controllers: Supported controllers for Just Dance 2019
XBone needs either Kinect or the Android App on your phone.

Just Dance 2020 is out in a week and has "8 new extra choreography for kids" routines which may be worth waiting for. No idea.

Might be worth for the "kids mode"

Both Android app and ps moves you need to hold the unit while dancing. Not something I would let my daughter do when she dances. I thought the android app would act as a camera, but it's not. Maybe I should just let her dance without gaining scores

I got it to download without "restarting my device".

I just needed to restart the menagerie of Windows services it inexplicably depends on.

The last question put to Ettouney was also about the nature of Dreams as a PlayStation exclusive. Would Media Molecule and Sony ever make it available on PC or Mac, the platforms where so many creatives do their professional work?

"The answer to every question is 'yes', but Dreams needs to reach a lot of people first," Ettouney said, with obvious hesitation. "Our goal for Dreams is to last for 20 years, and keep expanding it and keep adding to it and keep improving it.
Yeah they definitely want to go non exclusive but still in contract with Sony.

Incoming fanboys angry noise.

Control has been 'controlled'.

Thoughts: The best gameplay from Remedy since Max Payne 2. Beautiful game, with some technical hiccups on PS4. Its not too short, even playing the way I didn, sprinting through the main story. There are a lot of optional quests, however during the main story there isn't any compelling reason to do them, as long as the mystery is left unsolved. Once the main story is complete, then it makes absolute perfect sense that you do all of the side quests.

Spoiler thoughts: I may have been spoiled by my long time reading of a good portion of the SPC foundation entries. I expect the mind fuck at this point and I've had to wrap my mind around a lot of twisted shit. For someone who isn't exposed to this kind of horror/sci-fi, it'd be like a more coherent Bioshock. To me, just another containment breach. I was surprised at some of the reveals, such as Darling ascending to another dimension and the existence of Herdon. Others, like the Janitor being an extradimensional entity, the hiss coming from another dimension, the director having gone rogue, evil brother I saw before I even started the first mission. I'll say this, I'd love to spend more time in the world and I am looking forward to playing the expansions. Just not at $60 and the additional cost of the expansions.

Better make their own launcher. PC only gamers will happily use Sony Launcher lol.

I expect Dreams to hit EGS in the next year or so (EGS since it seems to be Sony's platform of choice for "multiplat"

Does the 2080ti (and assumely the 3080ti) work with this mobo (the one I currently have)?

Im gonna upgrade my PC next year, but will probably wait for the 3000-series from Nvidia.

Still not sure if it's worhtwile to get a new mobo for the 9900k if the 5820k 4 ghz isn't gonna bottleneck the 3080ti.

I will do gaming on the PC (like Im doing right now), no editing or any sort of that stuff.

It likely will be.

And it will likely being the best selling third party game on there? Because of its creative nature?

And it will still be behind in content. I wonder if high quality textures will be available from the start?

The game is selling very well still and a lot of people are still playing it.

Rough price(s), same as on consoles but too rough for me. I'm all for wasting money on DLCs for games I've never played (see Rise of Industry 2130) but there's a line.

What exactly is the game logo you can change in the new beta version?


That "The Outer Worlds" logo on the left can be resized and placed wherever you want.

Well actually not wherever, you can only put it on the middle or the left.
