    Doom 3

    Ctrl+Alt+Tilde (key above Tab) and type in "god". EDIT: You have all the cheat codes in Doom wiki: https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/Doom_3_cheat_codes That is the cheat code for original Doom games. It does not work for Doom 3.

    is this laptop enough to run all new games?

    Approximately so, I believe. On paper, laptop 3080 may actually be better than desktop 3060, but keep in mind that performance of laptop GPU will sharply fall off after a couple of hours due to cooling issues, whereas desktop doesn't have that problem.

    It may be, depending on what you want it to do. But I don't think laptop 2080 would be able to run ALL new games smoothly. To be exact, desktop RTX 2080 Super is anywhere between 29% and 50% faster than its laptop "variant". Overall, laptop 2080 is at best equivalent to desktop 2060, and...

    is this laptop enough to run all new games?

    We Can't Keep Making Video Game Stories for Players Who aren't Paying Attention

    Eh, I don't know. My impression is that he is long-winded, repetitive, and uses certain (catch)phrases way too often. He is definitely better than many, but he is way behind e.g. Tolkien or Hemmingway. So yeah, maybe I shouldn't have said he was "terrible", but frankly, getting through his...

    We Can't Keep Making Video Game Stories for Players Who aren't Paying Attention

    Thing is that what many people enjoy in fantasy is the world itself. George Martin is a terrible writer when it comes to quality of his prose, but he has engaging characters and engaging (if shoddily built) world, and so many readers are more than willing to overlook the terrible writing.

    What was the first video game you remember playing?

    My first? Depends on what we are looking at. First game I played ever was likely Red Alert 2, at friend's PC. First game I played on my own PC was likely either Civilization 2 or else Wacraft 2. Not sure which.

    Mecha Break

    So I am usually not really a person for shooters, but Mecha Break has actually become my new favorite online multiplayer game. For reference, I had played also Throne and Liberty, Strinova, EVE Online, World of Warships, World of Tanks, Guild Wars 2, Left 4 Dead, Counter Strike 1.6, Counter...

    Need help to find a new game

    @I_VeXoS Your laptop should be fine to run basically all old games, so suggestions in this thread might be helpful for you: https://forums.pcgamer.com/threads/your-favorite-pre-2010-games.145316/

    Oh, I definitely enjoy fantasy settings, but I only ever played historical Total War games.
