    General Game Discussion for March 2026

    When you say co-op that can be played solo, my first thought is Borderlands. That was pretty good solo, though it looks like it was better as co-op. I'm getting near the end of Jedi: Survivor, I think. I've got ways to open up just about every kind of path I've seen. The question is: why...

    Non-PCG News Discussion for March 2026

    As a long time programmer, I'm quite certain that it's a hardware issue. ;)

    We had our first tornado hit. It was just barely a tornado (EF0) and it was screaming along at 50mph+! I heard the tornado warning, shut down my PC, got my shoes and phone, went down to the basement, turned on the TV, and was like "Oh, that's pretty close!" And then the rotation data updated...

    That would be a fundamental failing, then. If it's designed not to suggest violence and it suggests violence, then it is not working as designed. If the nature of AI is such that they can only make it less likely that AI will suggest violence, then that needs to be announced to the public that...

    PCG Article Discussion for March 2026

    He's got a point, as long as modern means after Y2K or so. Nvidia has been the leader in getting new features out into the world. I've seen multiple devs mention that Nvidia helped them get through rough graphical issues, too. Any history covering how gaming developed over the years would...

    A website to revive dead multiplayer games: GameDate

    My only concern would be security. IF a game has security issues, this site will tell hackers all over the world who's running a game they can hack at any given time.

    I lost dark mode and see no way to get it back?

    You're lucky I'm not running the board. It would have been Dark Green Mode for sure!

    Spinning disk drive hanging around in a thrift store, so I wouldn't be shocked if some were broken. But at that price, so what?? If it doesn't work, get another one next week.

    What is the Best RTS game of all time?

    Oh, what was I thinking!? I forgot to include Sacrifice! It's got Tim Curry in it, so you know it's good. ;) https://www.gog.com/en/game/sacrifice Jeez, apparently they upped the price to $25 around the 25th anniversary. Maybe they did it to get the multiplayer working again?

    40% off Civ 7 Delux, which brings the price down to... $60. Yow. And that extra cash only gives you extra empires and leaders, not a 'season pass' to future DLCs with major content. (I'm starting to wonder if they will ever even offer a DLC like that.)...

    General Game Discussion for March 2026

    Started up a new game of Distant Worlds 2 late yesterday, just because it's always so hard to find a good place to save in Jedi: Survivor when I want to quit. Got hooked and barely got to bed before 1am. Guess that wasn't such a good plan... @Pifanjr, weren't you playing Metal Gear Solid V...

    City of Heroes! Sidekick system works great for teaming up with higher level folks.

    Are games in series coming out too slow?

    I think the number of complex systems in a game is more a limitation on the player side now and has likely been that way for a good 25+ years. Developers can add all sorts of systems to a game, but the players (by and large) don't want to have to learn all of it. But what I'm really wondering...
