Console Gaming (General)

[Jerroddragon]

This looks like one of those games that just comes along and finally breaks its genre into the mainstream. The premise alone is one of those wacky daydream thought experiments all of us have had at some point. I also thinks it’s no surprise this is yet another game coming to us from what looks to be a midsize studio.

If this has an easy mode....I'm so in looks so much fun

I’m considering getting a Steam Deck as a second console and the devs confirmed they have it running on it in this video. I just might join you in an easy mode lol

Another thing to add is how all of their focus here isn’t on graphics but rather gameplay aspects like how many soldiers they're putting on the field.

Also, we need this in the game for when we’re plowing through soldiers with the pick up truck.

I dont know if anyones seen this yet, but essentially you can stream Steam games to your browser. However it does cost money if you wanna play for longer than an hour at a time.

Its pretty decent if you have a good internet connection and network. I was digging it but my previous gaming PC was at the point it wouldn't even reliably turn on. I tried getting an ASUS ROG Ally and loved it but it had some pretty nasty driver issues that bit me 2 times too man. Went off and got a reasonable Razer and have been pretty happy, but the Geforce Now top line subscription is surprisingly cost effective.

Amy Hennig is the lead on this. She did the first 3 Uncharted games.

Color me intrigued.

I had no idea this game was a thing but it looks interesting. Will definitely be keeping my eye on it.

Insanity what Unreal 5 can do. I really hope the Steam Deck is able to run this since I’m getting so freaking close to pulling the trigger on getting one to play Indiana Jones and some emulated retro games that Nintendo and other companies refuse to sell me lol.

Edit: Cyborg playing Black Panther is something I didn’t know I needed until now.

Its insane they waited this long to do this

But also saw on Reddit the Dev doesn't have a great track record normally making games that are just there to sell you skins....so I'll hope for the best but....expecting this to be another cash grab

This and Lost Records: Bloom & Rage are easily my most anticipated video games for this year. Sooooooo excited.

So, for the first time ever I’ll be a multi-console owner. I pulled the trigger on the Steam Deck when I saw Valve was selling refurbished 512GB models for only $10 more than a brand new 64GB model. I think I got one of the last ones too because they’re no longer in stock now. I also got a Dock and PS5 controller for it so it’s essentially another Switch.

It arrives Tuesday

So I bought the Mickey Mouse Castle of Illusion remake on Steam because it was on a sale that ends today and I’ve always heard good things about it. DuckTales Remastered is also on sale. Anyone here play these games?

DuckTales Remastered is a fantastic platformer. I'm really glad they were able to get most of the original voice cast to return for it.

Cool I’m apprehensive as I have no nostalgia for the show at all and was wondering if it’s still enjoyable without that lens. I’ve still got a few days to decide on that one anyway.

Yeah, the game feels very similar to classic Mega Man, as the original game was developed by the same team. The game heavily revolves around using Scrooge's cane drop attack, which is a lot like the shovel drop in Shovel Knight if you've ever played it. The game's soundtrack is also really incredible, with the classic NES tracks getting remixed by Jake Kaufman (Shantae series, Shovel Knight).
