PS3 was the point where complacency eclipsed quality. Never could bring myself to buy a PS3, or especially Xbox, back then. Without doubt these games play better and look as they were intended to on PC. Not sure where on the spectrum emulation lands since ports are never fully as good as the...

Someone had some success in the controller space due to consoles effectively raising prices on ages old designs that are sloooooooowww. Shows some passage of time was impeccably stated. Even casual games are better when movement doesn't equate with sludge aiming for a 20% error rate due to...

That channel has a newer video with 497 HDD totaling over 2 hours in length. Didn't want to interrupt the flow of this thread with it.

My favorite is forgetting Steam stores it's own local copy outside folder you point it at. Having a full game file sized backup on your OS drive always feels good to delete.

Most of the game service launchers have built in ability. As do the monitoring overlays. Anything outside of that is just a desktop screenshot program.

Excellent. Working through your resistance to leave SSHD up to the point of realizing how likely degradation was. Pushed me away from seriously looking at solutions using NAND in large TB HDD for longer term desktop use. Will be interesting to see if consumer facing products receive...

I'm certainly the second type of person who enjoyed watching this video :sleep:

Appreciate reminder to look where this setting got left during multiple months of attempting fixes and waiting for patches. I should just download the Definitive Edition of Mafia I and II that have less issues. Remember seeing screenshots of Robocop in here right after it was released and...

Real drivers set danger sign records by crossing distance counting trigger point from the opposite direction. :rockout: I'm giving up on getting classic edition of Mafia II to run without crashing on 24H2. Same place I landed with Forza Horizon. If 25A# doesn't arrive soon and put things...

@OkieDan Consider it a MSI sponsored GUI of most current AIDA build. Mostly sure it requires having MSI Center installed and is accessible through that program.

Glad your headache mostly went away. Wherever you arrive on the split between fast OS drive and storage across your systems. Less flashy [pun] [but also stress on less] spinning rust is making a comeback. SSHD → ____ vs lasers/foam/synthetic DNA/I AM ROBOCOP has been a fun tech divergent for...

Optane, that's what. ;)

I just commented elsewhere on the topic of choosing games that are interesting for technical, as in unique test subjects, reasons. As opposed to outright popularity among any group lying outside the consumer of TPU. My understanding is that establishment of infinitely repeatable static...

Pretty weak troll even within a vastly marginal repertoire of insulting predispositions. Since a question was raised. This and the previous thread had a directly stated purpose of choosing unique game engines. If one felt so inclined they might've taken into consideration what context the...
