FUCK EA AND FUCK THE EA APP
"just another launcher!" *spit
I was trying to play a chill session of Fifa Manager 12 last played on this PC sometime in 2020.
Opening Origin --> please update to EA App
Installing EA App, installing Fifa Manager 12, starting... ---> product not activated, please activate product
What? checking the info panel on the library card, there is the core displayed ---> clicking "activate product"
"Ea App cant activate product, please check if you are offline" ---> FUCK YOU! I downloaded the fucking game 5 minutes ago! The CD KEY is displayed in the games library!
Checking Forums and reddit, seems like it is a known issue with no resolution.
I wasted 90 minutes on this shit.
Never Again! Deleted EA App and will never buy another EA game ever.

It always was a little slower than other forums for me. But today it's like 3 times as bad.
damn, guess the hosting must be having some trouble or something, no clue
They always seem to think that when Valve starts choosing winners that they will choose them (or their friends).
I actually use, in a targeted fashion, Steam discovery tools to find specific types of games, and that way I've played a lot of good games that have <100 reviews and that basically no one ever talks about outside Steam.
So obviously not scrolling through all games at random, but maybe looking through specifically tagged games in the recommender.
I really don't understand this thinking at all.
I don't care if 10000 bad games exist on Steam (which I never need to interact with except perhaps spent a second to click past 0.1% of them) if getting rid of them would mean that even 1 great game couldn't find success on the platform.
Seems Nvidia and Sony are on good terms :
Looks like another Nvidia-sponsored release.

Better than AMD sponsored games, tbh.
Won't need a DLSS mod for Dragon's Dogma 2 at least.
At this point associating your PC games with AMD is sending your audience a really bad message.
I'm sure Forbidden West will have FSR 2/3 anyway.
I'm also expecting it to run a fair bit better on AMD hardware, generally speaking.

New keyboard. I'm weak to keyboard gimmicks.
that one clip where he shows that the Intel Chip at 30W is comparable to 25W with the Ally is just rough. And the chip bottoms out at 15W. In terms of perf/watt, it really seems like Intel is a full generation behind AMD. Especially when you consider that none of the mobile chips use AMDs newest architecture yet, Zen 4. So once that hits APUs, Intel is going to look even worse.
Yeah, this thing is a joke. Intel are a laughing stock when it comes to efficiency in this day and age. They’re back to making huge chips that run hot.
MSI Claw is a joke. We’re nearly 2 years since the release of the Steam Deck and there’s still no device that competes in any way, shape or form.
Price notwithstanding, all we’ve seen is a pointless spec war that has completely missed the point of what a handheld device is. The Claw is the most indulgent of these given it runs at 25w, but all 3 of the main Deck competitors have screwed the pooch in one way or another.
Evil motherfuckers. Share price went up with the news too.
I seriously think you could solve a whole bunch of society’s problems by banning shareholders and the stock market. It’s a massive fucking grift that has no discernible benefit other than to propagate the eternal growth myth and allow companies to get bigger than they have any right or need to.
Looks quite rough, Patapon is driven by a stellar art direction, which is not very present in that short clip.
In any case we have ratatan, made by the same people as the original patapons.
Seems like this has been confirmed, according to an editor at hardwareluxx, the 4080 and 4070 Ti are entering EOL.
I'm probably going to cave and get the Super Tie. On paper at least it seems the most interesting of the super cards, more vram and bigger bus than the non-super card should be quite nice.
Well, depending on general availability and actual real life pricing over here. Also curious to see the card line up since there's no FE edition of that one it seems.
I've been quite happy with my last 2 Asus TUF cards in terms of noise so unless something changes there I expect I'll get a TUF card again.

In some parallel universe out there Rocksteady continued making Batman games after Knight. They made at least 3 more good games and didn't go into 8 year dev hell to make some crappy service game. Fans were happy and the games sold/reviewed really well.
The missing step in the Arkham series was Batman: Beyond Arkham. Bruce retires, the next generations rises
But alas. It wasn't meant to be

Rocksteady won't escape the wrath of Zaslav. They'll be shuttered within a year.
Damian Wayne game was in development by WB Montreal and Arkham Knight ending kinda teased that at least for some time sidekicks took over securing Gotham.
I don't know what you're talking about I've been playing Pokemon on PC for years now
Indiana Jones gameplay next week wooo hooo!!!

Suicide Squad is going to be a massive disaster. It has epic fail at the level of The Avengers written all over it.
The real question is do Rocksteady bounce back from this?

"People are just haters I'm there day 1 Rocksteady don't miss"- nervous gamer trying to forget they said the same thing with arkane and redfall last year
Also no one post the pics of the HUD it should be categorized as NSFW

Wasn't that the premise for Gotham Knights?
I'm asking sincerely, since I never played that one.
Nadeo/Ubisoft changed once again monetization on TrackMania, fucking ubisoft get fucked

If you're asking, then the answer is probably yes. It's a fascinating game.Shoud I buy Fear & Hunger?
It's not good but I fail to see a big difference between this and any other modern shooty game like borderlands, overwatch or cod. If this is bashed the others also deserve some bashing. It's the giant damage numbers that make it worse than it would otherwise be. It has all the markings of a bad game but this isn't even in the top 10 reasons.
I recommend the Lets Game It Out videos for that game, might give you some, ahem, tips
Gotta keep feeding the backlog.
