Garden Story and Elder Scrolls Online. Polar opposites, can hop in for an hour on each and make a little progress.

Just a quick blurb, it's nice to see Microsoft and Valve having these kinds of meetings and relationships: View: https://twitter.com/XboxP3/status/1426324572626845697 Man I can't wait to get my hands on mine.

I love that they're telling a story about young Vesemir.

I haven't played many games that do this, but no. I lucked out with Mass Effect 2 - I got a perfect, paragon ending and everyone lived. I earned that too, I didn't look up any guides and avoided spoilers. On the other hand, I lost one of the people I really tried to save during my Heavy Rain...

Red Dead Redemption 2, 1440p, 75Hz, HDR, all settings ultra / highest. The environments and lighting look cooler and more vibrant than real life. And the biomes run the gamut from deserts to forest logging towns with streams running beneath main street. It's a joy just riding your horse across...

That looks really fascinating. Since Unavowed was on sale today I now have a free space on my Steam wishlist :D

Many people reserved a model (myself included), and feedback across the various forums and social media appears very positive, so I hope that it is as successful as Valve needs it to be to support it for years, and getting a new model down the road.

People have called my idea macabre, but the Rapa Nui of Easter Island back during its assumed human-driven environmental decline. The simulation would begin decades prior to the sort of the arms race (for lack of a better term) they engaged in, allowing players to experience the build up to it...

I can't remember them all, but... 1. Mass Effect 2 - first for the PC when it released (wish I had kept the box and disc), then later as part of the Legendary remaster on the PS5 2. Witcher 3, sort of - prior to the release of the game I purchased a graphics card that came with a code for a...

Ultima Online back in the day. I loved merely exploring, looking inside homes and castles, dungeons and crypts. Sailing the seas to discover new islands with their resources, creating teleportation runes so I could revisit it and show my friends.

I recently acquired Verizon Fios. It is advertised as 875 Mbps (109 MBps) down, and during tests and downloads from Steam it often averages that rate pretty consistently. No datacap, no throttling. I purchased the fiber Verizon router/switch as it was the highest rated by consumer groups and...

Consoles are too uniquely customized to be considered a PC. They have customized SoC's / APU's a consumer cannot get their hands on. Different types of memory existing within the same system - some for general and game compute, different memory dedicated for things like background tasks and...
