GreenMario, do games w Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 and 2: This. Is. Epic. Drop in to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 on Steam, October 3

About time lol. I guess they forgot about it.

I bought on Xbox so was no thing. Great remake, definitely recommend.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

The company the developed it got consumed by Blizzard shortly after.

So they’ll be owned by Microsoft before too long. Maybe we’ll get the 3+4 remake we deserve.

GreenMario,

RIP Vicarious Visions. Those guys did magic on the GBA and all their remakes were spot on.

Thanks for letting me know I don’t need to bother with Playstation for the foreseable future, Jimmy boy.

TenderfootGungi, do games w Dusk: Unpopular opinion: I'd rather pay Valve 30% and put up with their de facto monopoly than help Epic work towards their own (very obviously desired) monopoly

Just like I am happy with Apple and Google taking a cut and running their app stores. If these big companies could make their own store, they would. Apple would lose a cut, but that does not affect me as a consumer. What does affect me is a gate keeper keeping terrible practices in check. Making it nearly impossible to cancel a subscription instead of having a handy menu to just turn it off. Having places to put credit cards that are not secure. Collecting personal data nonstop. Etc etc.

conciselyverbose, do games w "Ubisoft may also request that Microsoft perform technical modifications,including to ensure that the Activision Games support emulators like Proton"

I don't think any of their stuff doesn't work now. Even stuff like Halo with anticheat has been allowed to work via proton already.

This doesn't provide any promise that you can use gamepass or windows store games on Linux, and it doesn't provide any promise that they don't use anticheat in a restrictive way on Linux machines. They can trivially provide a bypass in the cloud environment that doesn't get shipped to end users.

Hopefully they don't do that, but this doesn't really mean a lot to individuals buying their games.

Potatos_are_not_friends, do games w Xbox thought Bethesda was worth $10.5B at the time of purchase but they acquired them for $7.5B

That’s how negotiations work!

Shame Zenimax named a number and Microsoft was like, “Uh yeah that sounds right!”

First person to say a number loses the negotiations.

GiantRobotTRex,
toasty_mcboost, do nintendo w Nintendo of America on Twitter: Tune in on Sept. 14 at 7 a.m. PT for a Nintendo Direct livestream featuring roughly 40 minutes of information focused on Nintendo Switch games releasing this winter.

My moonshot wishlist includes -Metroid prime 2 -Legend of Zelda windwaker/twilight princess

Not expecting anything for the Switch 2 as Nintendo wouldn’t compromise holiday sales. Just just regular Switch releases this year and early next year stuff.

Metroid Prime 2 shadow drop would be nice.

Eh_I, do games w Rockstar is selling Cracked Game Copies on Steam
@Eh_I@lemmy.world avatar

Can I upload cracked rockstar games to steam? $100 right?

Z4rK, do games w Starfield Premium Upgrade has actually made the Top Ten in the UK physical charts. It’s at No.7.

Is there any other real benefits except early access?

conciselyverbose,

It says it includes a story expansion. Obviously it will be available for purchase separately but I doubt it will be less than $30.

I almost wish I'd just bought that to be playing now. I'm waiting for the "release", though.

I think most people that cared about the game could hand over $30 more for “early access”, will full release push the needle that much? I don’t know, don’t think so.

Dettweiler42,

Copies of the Premium edition were included with a lot of graphics card sales, and there’s been a lot of upgrading going in with some card prices coming down. It could be a significant factor.

Naz,

That’s exactly how I got my copy. The highest tier AMD GPU (7900 XTX, 24 GB) dropped to $800 on Amazon sometime in July, performing about 95% as fast as an RTX 4090 in most titles, which cost $1600-1900 (10% sales tax), and outperforms or matches the 4090’s performance in Starfield.

I’m getting 108 FPS on 4K Ultra outdoors, and 128 FPS indoors, with Resolution Scale at 100% and FSR disabled.

Best impulse purchase of the year.

Renacles,

It’s going to be on game pass day 1. Why would I pay full price + 30 more to play 5 days early?

NuPNuA,

If you’re on gamepass you only pay the 30 extra not full price. I didn’t either but was tempted.

Because you don’t want to be left behind or because neurotransmitters are already going pog just thinking about the game and you need your fix.

simple, do games w Spyro Reignited Trilogy sells 10 million units globally

This should be a good thing, but Activision killed Toys for Bob. It’s a shame we’ll never see a Spyro sequel.

darkevilmac,
@darkevilmac@lemmy.zip avatar

They killed Vicarious Visions - Toys for Bob still exists last I checked

simple,

They’ve been downscaled and relegated to supporting Call of Duty development, so they’re effectively dead.

pulaskiwasright,

Vicarious Visions is Blizzard Albany now.

moipe, do games w Dragon's Dogma 2 joins the Capcom lineup at TGS2023!

Awww yeaaaa. They are going to say “its done! You don’t have to wait years. You can play it right now.” And I will be so happy.

Annoyed_Crabby,

Santa Claus: What colour do you want your dragon?

moipe,

Red and named Grigori!

emeraldheart, do games w Starfield is now available for pre-load on Steam

I don’t trust like that.

dan1101,

What do you mean?

omgitsaheadcrab,

Buy games once they’re out and reviews don’t claim it’s a buggy mess

Feathercrown, do games w Charles Martinet Will No Longer Voice Mario

Sad to see him go, but glad I got to hear him as Mario.

VentraSqwal, do games w Charles Martinet will be stepping back from the voice of Mario and is taking on a brand-new "Mario Ambassador" role at Nintendo

I’m curious if it’s his choice or if Nintendo wants to make it Chris Pratt everywhere lol.

Monomate,

Let’s hope not. But I think they’d prefer a dedicated voice actor to replace him, as the logistics of Chris Pratt recording his voice lines between his acting commitments would cost too much for Nintendo.

ech,

It’s certainly pretty conspicuous timing, but the guy is also almost 70, and been doing the job for over 30 years. It’d definitely make sense for him to just figure it’s time to pull back.

MimicJar,

0% chance Chris Pratt will play Mario in the video games. He’ll do the voice for another 2 movies along with the rest of the cast and that’ll be it.

We’ll get a few spin off movies, maybe he’ll appear in those briefly but then he’ll be done.

They’ll eventually do a 4th movie but I’ll have a name like “Universe” or “Dreams” and I’ll be a new Mario cast.

    More likely he wanted to retire but still enjoyed meeting fans

    gammasfor,

    It’s basically “he’s retiring but keeps getting paid by Nintendo”.
