Didn’t for Super Mario 3D All-Star, they just downloaded a rom of Super Mario 64 on a ROM website?

The copyright term for works owned by a corporation should be cut wayyyy down. I’m fine with a long copyright if it’s owned by a person, but corporations shouldn’t be able to lock down things that are older than like 20 years old. People shouldn’t be forced to buy a long discontinued console in order to legally play a old game.

With that strategy, we’d wind up with shell people holding copyrights on behalf of corporations.

Edit: Just wanted to add that I am definitely for the reduction of copyright duration, just that this particular solution has a somewhat amusing flaw.

Isn’t there a Retroarch core for Doliphin? And Retroarch is on Steam. Maybe the Dolphin core is not available on the Steam version though.

Anyway, thankfully if you are tech savvy enough to get Dolphin to work, you are more than likely also capable of side loading it on the Steamdeck.

It stifles innovation in the same way that museums and libraries stifle innovation ie. in no way

twinklefruit, 11 dni temu do games w Emperor of overpromising Peter Molyneux says he's done with games after Masters of Albion, which is also his 'redemption title'

His biggest mistake was interacting with the gaming community.

I never interact with my customers because they’re all insufferable as fuck and don’t deserve any validation for what they say.

Oh man. Roberta Williams well and truly is a veritable legend in the field. Mad respect for her. I hope she gets enough to get treatment (though I hate that she has to)

Cheems, 18 dni temu do games w Former BioWare lead writer reads the runes on EA-Saudi deal and speculates that 'guns and football' are in, 'gay stuff' is out, and the venerable RPG studio may be for the chop

I almost certainly will never play another NFL or NCAA game again. Cod can go fuck itself. I’m almost definitely not in the demographic to which they’re trying to sell games to anymore. But God damn I know I’m not the only one in this field.

FenrirIII, 23 dni temu do games w Would-be City of Heroes successor, Ship of Heroes, decides to launch the MMO with a $45 price tag and a $15 monthly subscription and it's, er, going about as well as you'd expect

I wish the Marvel MMO was available on private servers. Played that shit for thousands of hours before it just disappeared

CoH was a flawed, but awesome MMO in many ways. I’d love to see it done right, but I think they are out of their mind if this think this will succeed.

Wilco, 23 dni temu

Go play CoH … the EMU is a perfect retail copy of the game.

Well, as I said, it was flawed. The XP grind near the end got roooough, especially since that was still in the era of losing XP when you died. That was especially frustrating when they had lag issues that killed you and then you lost a week of progress leveling up. The game was still a lot of fun though.

DarkAri, 23 dni temu do games w Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics'

This might not be too bad if they improved the controls. Deus ex is such a good game outside of the N64 era PC controls.

It’s fucking important for any gamer with a shred of concious humanity to boycott this game and make it fail.

The money this game was funded by comes directly and only from blooded oppression of a dictatorship. From forced unpresented taxes and bloody oil money of terrorisim. They beheaded and killed all their human-right activist citizens and protestors who tried to ask for their share that went to this game.

capuccino, miesiąc temu do games w Nintendo reportedly gets even more obnoxious about patent law by taking a 'mods aren't real games' stance against a Dark Souls 3 mod that could invalidate its Palworld lawsuit

a videogame isn’t a big mod out of an engine? Like, GTA V, is a mod of RAGE engine?

Matriks404, miesiąc temu

It depends how mod is made. If it depends on a base content of a game, it’s generally a mod for that game. That’s what Counter-Strike and DOTA for example was at first (they required Half-Life, and Warcraft 3 base files respectively).

If you make a game for a specific engine, it’s generally considered as a standalone game, not a mod. Also in olden days code for the engine and the game wasn’t separated so you couldn’t easily reuse the game engine. AFAIK Id Software was one of the first companies that made reusable game engines that were also licensed to other companies, and even made map editor available for free.
