Not too surprised. They have really improved their controller support over the last few years. I am able to play the game without issue with my HTPC using a controller.
I loved playing the first game when I was younger. It was like a more exploration based Sonic game. You had some fast parts and then others where you tried to find hidden areas.
Im happy to see them reflect on their first video which i disliked quite a bit. I got about halfway through this one and its pretty good, though not that interesting to me anymore. I hope that summer eternal project does well though! looks the most interesting of the offshoot studios to me
It’s not a dumb video and it’s not an edge case. It’s a great video that goes straight to the point, has timestamps, explains in detail how the exploit works and how consistently, and showcases it.
The exploit is BadUpdate v1.2, an evolution of the previously known BadUpdate, which was great as a proof of concept but not very useful in practice, as it required an average of 30 minutes to work, had a success rate of about 30%, and needed to be applied every time the console was rebooted (on a console with no sleep mode, may I add).
By comparison, as shown in the dumb video, the new version of BadUpdate works flawlessly in about a minute (10 max), and has a far greater success rate of about 80%, according to the creator. It can be launched from a USB stick and requires no additional software or hardware modification to the console, and most importantly, works on all X360 and not just earlier editions.
If you’re too lazy to click on a link, fine, but I’d suggest at least not acting so confidently when saying things you know nothing about.
The exploit is a race condition that requires precise timing and several other conditions to be met for it to trigger successfully. As such it can take a while for that to happen.
Which means that, sometimes, you run the code but it simply fails. When it happens, you can turn off the console and try again.
If i remember correctly, some memory address that needs to be overridden by the exploit is randomized on startup. The only way to find it is to just write to a random address, which often fails
You should re-read the discussion, because I’m pretty positive you didn’t even get the topic.
We are talking about being able to play pirated games and homebrew apps on the X360. Of course that doesn’t happen in the wild. Unless you think that I woke up one day with a modded PS1.
You can, but most everything that would let you run your own boot-time code is supposed to end up in the TPM event log, which the TPM is happy to attest to with its unique/uniquely bannable attestation key. Not too difficult to set it up so that no attestation = no access.
This type of attestation is far from perfect for a lot of different reasons, and it would be really impractical to automate bans with it, but I guess it's a tool they see value in.
May I ask what it is you dont like about them? Saying them as there are more than just one person behind this channel now, not sure if u refer to that or just the main person.
They coined the term “HR in the room” with dragon age veilguard and called the entire dialog tree in every scenario terrible when they only took a single dialog path. As I have personally played the game and enjoy it as do several people I know, it’s pretty clear they were upset by the fact that they weren’t included in review copies. Now that’s not to say veilguard doesn’t have problems because it clearly does, but dialog in my current playthrough has been perfectly fine. There have been other reviews like this as well for lower profile games, DAV unfortunately was a very high profile game reviewed by a disgruntled YouTuber with a large platform to voice their opinions. The real tragedy is that the meme stuck and veilguard will always be labeled as this terrible “woke” entry into the franchise when in reality it was perfectly fine.
To put it simply, Skillup is not genuine in their reviews and in some cases very clearly have an “agenda” to push. I’m not a fan of that behavior, so I’m not a fan of Skillup.
The music, story and art harmonizes in a way that caused me to sit and be sad for hours. The melancholy environment, the inevitability of death and the sorrow love eventually causes. It’s so fucking beautiful!
Just the start, losing Sophie to the gommage, the setting and music ties it all so damn well together. It’s beautiful and tremendously sad. The whole thing is such a masterpiece of what games can achieve. A game where the gameplay isn’t the best or groundbreaking, but combined with the art, music, tone and story, it flies up to one of the best games in recent years. If not more.
I really liked the first one. For those who haven’t heard of it, it’s a weird platformer/collect-a-thon where you play as a spaceman (or a spacedog, funnily enough) scouting potentially livable planets for a ruthless company.
The first one was a bit undercooked, but the whole game was better than the sum of its parts. I’m curious to see if the sequel improved on the original.
For some reason, the game is still pending on GoG despite having released yesterday on Steam. I wish developers stopped the second-class citizen of their GoG users. I can understand small dev teams doing a staggered release for multiplatform games, but the game’s already on Steam, and GoG is just another PC storefront… I don’t understand.
FYI, the “O” in “GOG” is capitalized; it stands for “Good Old Games” as they originally made their claim to fame by modernizing access to literally old DOS, etc. games that are hard to run onodern PCs. It doesn’t stand for “of.”
With that said, yes, GOG should absolutely be prioritized, as well as itch.io.
You know the people that screamed not to buy the PS5 pro and games like the last of us part 1, a completely rebuilt game compared to the original…
Those are the same people that will buy a switch 2 and defend a $90 pride tag on a Mario kart game. I won’t buy a switch 2 for $450. That’s fucking insane. But the console will get scalped and people will still buy it for $800-$1200 for fomo reasons.
The console for $ 450 is not that insane (although it is somewhere PS4 power equal), the game prices and some other anti consumer practices are. I am playing in PC, and the only console i had the past 15 years was Switch. I did not know many games where dropped to $20 before Switch only to resale them at $60 after.
Many gamers had no problem with a $70 some years ago, buying the games and now its going up. Until they realize it, they will ask themselves why $120 games is the new norm in a few years.
Also charging $10 for playing the games you own in a new console that you bought, without almost no content, man consumers suck hard for accepting that.
