Funny how a thread about a Steam Deck turned into a Steam Powered boilers thread. Must be why the store uses steampowered.com as a domain.

Hard to say for sure until people get it in their hands. This article compares it to a 2400G which has a 10% higher boost but lower IPC, and it handled switch games well as old as a year ago on older versions of the emulators. I wouldn't be surprised though if it could handle most of the...

Yeah you can really tell who the Nintendo fanboys are by some of the articles. It's like they are offended that the Steam Deck even exists. The Steam Deck isn't trying to be a Switch. It's a handheld machine that lets you play your PC games and Steam library on the go, without having to buy...

Yeah, I do 8 hour shifts of boredom. I'm a sole database admin. My job isn't so much to do anything but rather to be there to answer questions or to fix it if shit crashes. Thing is, it never crashes. So I just show up to work, answer a few emails a day, go to a couple meetings every week...

That's just it. I own like 500 Steam games. If this thing will play most of them it is much better than a switch for me. I do have a Surface Pro 5 i7 that I game on sometimes, and a laptop, but those suck for lugging around and opening up to play. If I can just toss this in a bag and bust...

Also getting this same error. Thankfully I was able to get one preordered for my kids on their account, but I can't get mine preordered damnit...

Looking forward to this season. Finally some fresh reason to play a new season. Craving some new Diablo and it's taking forever for Immortals to release and who knows when D4 is coming.

Yeah I deleted that post shortly after I made it. I did some more digging and found out that his supposed tweet was most likely false.

I found this podcast today. He's only on about the first 25 minutes but it is great. He talks a bit about that documentary and gives his account of what really happened for some of it. I dunno, his story in it's simplest form makes a lot of sense. I have zero trust in the media, especially...

Also, What a madlad

There's nothing better than running screaming at an archer full speed, dodging his arrows, getting about 30 feet away, and chucking your 2h axe overhead right into his chest. Then picking it up as you run by, run into a group of his friends, and start heavy swinging in circles and lopping off...

If I could figure out how to program it, I could be a mega-millionaire. Make a virtual girlfriend/wife that lives around the house. Give her a good voice assistant personality. She can watch netflix with users on the couch, and they can pay buku bucks for some skimpy outfit DLCs. The...

Ouch. Can you return it? Or are you happy with it?

I'm enjoying it. Something about it just seems more fun than the first one, and I could never really get into Mordhau. I'll never be some pro who can time every block perfectly and do all sorts of fancy moves, so for me this one seems more forgiving. I was running around as the knight with...

Porn. Porn always causes technology leaps.

So you get a HMD with better resolution and slightly better FOV, but still need to spend $800 for the HMD + $400 for stations + $260 for controllers + $350 if you want wireless. Yes, these dont even come with controllers. The base kit with HMD, Controllers, and 2 Base Stations is $1399. And...

Or we will get a ministry of truth approved version, with dildo faggins the tranny and other loveable LBGTQWTF characters all hamfisted up in this bitch.

Yeah it should.

The update is regional rollout, but if you connect to your phone's hotspot for the wifi and then reboot and search for update, it can find it. If not, try connecting to a VPN if you have one set up on your phone. I was able to get the update this way on mine. Just remember to reboot between...

So Airlink (Oculus's version of Virtual Desktop wireless streaming) has gone live and apparently people are saying it's even better than Virtual Desktop. Easier to use, less stutters, smoother, 120hz, and less compression artifacts. I'll probably try it out tomorrow if I get time to update my...

24 hour flash sale on Oculus Quest store today only. There's 15 games on sale about 30% off. Some decent ones in there.

Damn, that looks like a good game.

The newer Assassin's Creeds are super guilty of this too. People bitched about collecting items, so they added in sidequests. Which I guess is better but there is such thing as beating a dead horse. But then on the flip side if you had this huge open world like AC Odyssey with no sidequests...

So glad I went with a 3070 even though I wanted to wait for a 3080. I used to hate it but now I am content with it. I'm going to be stuck with it for a while it seems.

You should get at least 2 hours wirelessly. I do on HL Alyx. You can get an elite strap with a battery pack on the back, or you can velcro your own battery pack on your regular headstrap if you need more battery.

So is there any crazy deals for the ultimate gamepass? Just got a Galaxy Fold and a gamesir controller and want to try some cloud gaming on it. Also I refuse to use Stadia.

I was never a tabletop player, but I gotta say that having an actual dice to roll is ingenious.

Things are so much more plug and play than they were even 5 years ago. AIO water coolers are super easy. But yeah you'd probably be better off with a pre-built given the GPU situation.

Glad to see that. Hope it's not easily gotten around.

I don't see why any PC gamer with a good PC would buy an Xbox anymore. All of xbox's big exclusives come to PC as well. Seems like PS5 is the perfect companion.

Well I offered my buyer a $200 partial refund and told him he can keep the card. He seemed decent about it and accepted it. From what I read, this closes the INAD case and he cannot open another one. So all in all I end up having gotten $350 for the card and get to wipe my hands from the...

When I was researching video card prices, I came across multiple listings for like 3080's where it said "digital edition". They'd sell for like $700. I opened them up and saw the seller saying you recieve a digital image of the item, not the actual item, and that by buying this item you are...

Eventually I have to imagine they are going to have a lot less sellers and a lot less stock which will probably see the rise of more competition. Doesn't help that they just nixed PayPal for sellers as well and you have to give them your SSN to even sell on it. High value items just aren't...

Ouch. Im out a card I paid $350 for 3 years ago. Sounds like you're out a lot more. Fuck ebay, I'd rather sell local even if it takes longer and I only get 2/3rds the value.

From what I have read, if he sends me back a card with a different S/N (I took a photo of the one I sold him's S/N before shipping it), people said to file a police report and then contact ebay with the police report info and then I have a much better chance. Not saying that's what he will do...

Well I may have just run into my first buyer trying to fuck me over. He requested a refund and said the card stopped working 3 weeks after I sold it to him. From what I can tell ebay will pretty much side with him by default. I'm trying to offer him troubleshooting tips, we will see if it makes...

Haven't beaten HL Alyx yet, but definitely checking this out once I beat it. Someone made a full campaign based in Bioshock world of Rapture. Apparently they got the permission from Bioshock to use assets and go hog wild with it. https://uploadvr.com/half-life-alyx-bioshock-mod-campaign/

They can get their flaming hot cheeto dust all over the silicone case I'll be putting on it. I suppose they will get it on the buttons and triggers though. Kids ruin everything.
