Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (12th October)

After getting the Platinum for Silent Hill 2 yesterday, Absolutely amazing remake, great job Bloober Team! I'm debating on what to start playing next to keep spooky season going with horror games.

It's a choice between Alone in the Dark or Still wakes the Deep.

Other then that I'm slowly progressing through Dying Light (Steam Deck OLED) co-op with a friend when we both have the time to do so.

Have a great weekend, and happy gaming, everyone!

Re: Switch Briefly Mentioned On GTA+ Subscription Site Before Being Removed

Whats with Rockstar and the way they treat Nintendo fans? Switch still doesn't have GTA V. Even though I would prefer to have GTA IV.

Physical copies of GTA Definitive Edition & Red Dead Redemption for Switch seem to never go on sale even though most of the games aren't even on the cartridge.

I'm glad I have a Steam Deck OLED to play most of the Rockstar games I enjoy!

I understand why RDR2 isn't available for Switch. But the older stuff should have been on Switch a long time ago. That's easy money sitting there, Rockstar.

7/10 isn't bad at all. Since it's a mobile game, I expected it to run at 60 fps, so an unstable frame rate is disappointing.

A friend of mine really wants to play it with me, so if he buys it for me, that's the only way I'll be playing it soon. Other than that, I'm in no rush to get it.

I'm sure my Steam Deck OLED would have no problem running this at 90 fps. I'll wait and see if Limited Run has a physical release or if it comes to PS5 or Steam.

Re: Zelda-Themed 'Hyrule Edition' Nintendo Switch Lite Launches This September

DTfearTheBEARD

It's so beautiful! Why does it have to be a Switch lite though. I understand why since TOTK Switch OLED was released last year, which I own, but still.

I have 4 Switch lites that I don't even use anymore since the OLED released. I definitely don't need this but I want it. This late in the Switches life and I'm thinking about buying another Switch. Only Nintendo can do this to me.

Re: Resident Evil 6 Has Sold Over 1 Million Copies On Nintendo Switch

I did my part and bought the RE triple pack back when it was released. Mostly to have RE4 on cartridge in which the game never received a patch to add gyro anyways, so I didn't play it much.

I had fun playing Mercenaries on RE6 for Switch, especially using split Joy Cons with gyro. But ever since Steam Deck OLED has entered my life, I much prefer to play RE6 on it instead.

800p 90fps in handheld mode/1080p 120fps docked with better gyro controls!

If Capcom gives Switch 2 proper physical releases of RE5/6/7/8, I'll buy those Day 1.

@Rpg-lover Thanks again for the Steam Deck info. I fell in love with the original Deck so much that when the oled came out, I sold my Deck and immediately upgraded and put a 2TB SSD in it.

I'm amazed by what this handheld can do. I play it daily. It's easily my favorite electronics purchase since the Switch back in 2017.

Ever since I bought the Steam Deck oled, PS5, Series X, & Switch haven't been played as much...

I'm currently playing RDR2, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Resident Evil 6 & Max Payne 3 all on the Deck oled. Steam Deck is my first PC/handheld so PC gaming is new to me.

Being able to adjust resolution, frame rate, and add gyro to any and every game makes this system a dream come true to me!

Re: Red Dead Redemption Gets An Update On Switch, Here Are The Patch Notes

DTfearTheBEARD

@SearchingS What platform did you play RE4 Remake on? I have the Platinum for the PS4, PS5, & Steam versions thru Steam deck. Same with the Series X version.

On Playstation and Steam, you can use gyro, which is an absolute game changer! Even playing on Steam Deck at 30fps the aiming is so much easier (with gyro) vs the Series X version at 60fps.

Re: Red Dead Redemption Gets An Update On Switch, Here Are The Patch Notes

DTfearTheBEARD

@SearchingS Hard to explain but it just feels wonky and sluggish. Mabey it's because I'm used to more modern games at the moment.
I don't remember it being an issue with the 360 version. I should pop in the disc on my Series X to see if it's different.

I disagree. Aiming in games are much better at 60fps vs 30fps. Redfall comes to mind, for example.

Re: Sega Reports 'Sluggish' Sales Of Sonic Superstars And Other Major Titles

DTfearTheBEARD

October was a packed month with Spider-Man 2 & Mario Wonder. Plus some other games I know I'm forgetting. Sega games usually go on sale pretty fast. I waited a few months and picked up a copy of Sonic Superstars for $20 a week or so ago from Best Buy. I did the same thing with Sonic Frontiers the year before. I like Sonic but I'm not spending $60 on a Sonic game day 1 that I know will be half price or less within a month or two.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 2nd)

Ever since my Steam Deck arrived on Monday, I've been on it nonstop. Downloading games from the Steam store (GTA 4, F.E.A.R. collection, Days Gone, Horizon Zero Dawn, Dying Light, and more). Plus, using the Deck to play Game Pass games via the cloud & PS5 through remote play. Being able to add gyro support to games that don't even have the option is pretty mind-blowing that it works for my PS5 & Series X games as well. This all in one handheld is amazing! I'm very impressed!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 26th)

DTfearTheBEARD

@Rpg-lover I'm the same way. I already have a bad habit of buying and downloading games thru sales and Game Pass/PS Plus Premium on PS5 & Series X.

Plus my backlog of Switch games over the past 6+ years. How much harm can 1 more system do? Lol.

I've been adding games to my wish list on Steam these past few days while waiting for the Deck to arrive. over 100 on the list so far, haha.

One thing I'll miss while using the Steam Deck is playing on an OLED display. After using the Switch OLED and playing PS5 & Series X on my OLED TV's these past few years, It kinda sucks going back to LCD. Mabey the Steam Deck 2 will have an OLED option...

I tend to double and triple dip on games I love, like RE 2, 3, & 4. Which I own for Playstation, Xbox, & now for Steam here soon.

Can you play the Resident Evil games on a Micro SD card? or is it SSD only?

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 26th)

DTfearTheBEARD

@Rpg-lover I appreciate the information. It's nice to know they run well on the deck. I'll mostly be playing at home so battery life isn't a concern for me.

Besides being able to play games on a handheld that doesn't come to Switch, having the option to add gyro to games that don't even support it is a big reason why I wanted a Steam Deck. Well, that and it's a more affordable way for me to get into PC gaming.
