Wasn't that a flash game on Newgrounds?
Should be able to play a good number of current indie games and at least PS3 era AAA games , which would already make it the best handheld ever.
That's The Flock, a different game. The Flock has a number of overall deaths that can be done in total by all players, which will then trigger a final event and then the game ends forever.
The obe I'm thinking about is a multiplayer survival FPS where you can only die once and thats it.

Not really happy with the two right most columns of keys. But eh, z8500 (hopefully the 8550) and DS formfactor is fine by me.

I think Chronicles of Elyria is also a fantasy one that is currently running. It might not be perma anymore though.

Going in Mafia II. Took a quick look in-game at settings and it's a bit weird. AA is only on/off, OK. PCGW it is. SSAA it is apparently. Disabled, went to Nvidia panel, activated MFAA. If that's no good, FXAA.
Let's see how good Mafia II is.

That's pretty much the reason I want it haha, couldn't you download a program like say moonlight and stream more beefy games on it? should work on such a device I think, but i'm a noob on stuff like streaming so I don't really know ha.
Not with that first game it won't be, apparently.
Seems kind of backward to have what appears to be complex crafting system when you will probably die 10 minutes in because of hackers.

Still conflicted about upgrading my PC. I really want to upgrade the GPU, but I want to keep the form factor of my X51 as well. Which would require a new power board and new power brick, along with the new GPU.
Part of me just wants to run this thing even farther and play games at lower than 1080p settings if need be (I don't plan on going higher than 1080p until this monitor breaks). Though as some of you have seen I'm not quite sure how much longer this thing will last. I've been having to fix it on odd ways. But I just can't purchase anything again at a high price.

People say Tomb Raider 2013 and Rise of the Tomb Raider are Uncharted clones, I've never played Uncharted, how great of a clone the TR games are in terms of gameplay and story?

Gameplay wise I think the TR games are better. The story in both Uncharted and TR is crap, but at least the Uncharted games know it and they are more like fun action movies. Sadly, the TR team never got the memo.
The Uncharted series has much better set-pieces, characters and storytelling.

Mafia II has a movie atmosphere and feeling to it. It's nice. Shooting is fun, driving a bit weird. Maybe it's because the winter.
It looks nice and detailed but up-close textures and models are low-fi. Understandable keeping in mind it was a ps360 era game. Found the first "magazine collectible". Ehrm, that is "interesting".

Fixed that for you. At least in terms of one of the games.
Haha, exactly. Maybe fun, depending on your preferences. Definitely not very long lived.
Depends... most of the comparison comes from the fact that they're both archeologically based adventure stories that revolve around some ancient artifact/civilization/whatever and the myths that surround it. Basically they're sort of akin to the Indiana Jones films -- Uncharted more directly so. The TR2013 and TR2016 games tend to try to be more serious in tone and less like an Indiana Jones movie mostly because Drake is more like Indy than Lara ever will be simply because of character design. And this is probably why CD made the games in the reboot have a more serious tone than the Uncharted games they're compared to.
With the reboot, and now the sequel, TR shifted to a more over the shoulder, semi-cover based TPS shooter for it's combat (where if you've played any of the slightly older/remastered games, TR was more about travesal and/or puzzle solving, though they did have Lara running around with dual wield handguns).
The Uncharted gameplay itself differs, particularly starting with Uncharted 2, by leaning toward a heavy shooter focus that is cover-based. Think Gears of War without the brutal melee type finishers and feeling a bit looser overall since the character models aren't big and bulky like the COGs. The naratives are about the same quality, or worse depending on your preferences and your tolerance for Nolan North and the general personality of Drake. Uncharted 2 is by far the most popular on the internet; I tend to believe this is because it ditches a lot of the puzzle solving/exploration type gameplay that was in the first game (and somewhat returned in the third, which is why I think a lot of people who loved Uncharted 2 were let down by Uncharted 3) and was the first game in the franchise to offer competitive multiplayer. It seems relatively likely that the campaign was designed to make full use of all the resources they spent developing something that could be a Gears of War for the PS brand.
I may have to come back to edit this some more, but I think a lot of my thoughts are there.

I have no idea how many endings are in the game but I got
[*]The normal ending following the narrator
[*]One where I closed Stanley's office door
[*]Stanley becoming insane and dying, with a woman watching him dead in the street
[*]Choose the option to turn the mind control device
[*]Fell off a window and the narrator told I didn't broke the game
[*]Jumped off the elevator(?) in a place that looked like a warehouse and the narrator told I did it jusr to show I was in the command
[*]Still in the warehouse missed the elevator and the narrator conviced me to jump, dead again.
[*]Found a museum
[*]The one where I refused to go through a red door.
[*]Got locked in a room because a tried to use the source engine console to open the doors

I'm not sure if all are considered endings and I tried to be a bit vague if you plan to play it again.

the rule of thumb for buying PC games now is that the actual 'release' is 3 months after launch
still doesn't stop me from Day 1'ing Mankind Divided though ( ≖‿≖

Except for Uncharted 3. What a waste of potential.
sunless sea is strange, i kind of at the same time appreciate how little "playing" you do but i feel like listening to a podcast or something while playing because of how much waiting while traveling there is. kinda sad cos the atmosphere is great
my second character is doing a lot better than my first one, but i feel the game's pushing me to start taking risks and making long trips and i feel that'll end in tragedy

no its not... the rule of thumb is to buy the game when it hits 50% off during sales
For the few that care, the demo for the first volume of Flowers is now on Steam.
Oh and the physical version (and I assume the digital version), has a date of March 20th.

Uncharted 3 corrected the course of the franchise and brought everything closer to the original while retraining some of the advances put forth by the focus on multiplayer in the second game. For me, it was a return to form, and showed me that I was wrong to write off the series as a generic Gears of War clone that Uncharted 2 seemed to be pushing the franchise toward.
I did have one moment where I thought it was all going to take a turn for the worse, but it was just a little deja vu as (Uncharted 2/3 spoilers):
there is a bit where you get to the top of the ship graveyard type area that evoked a lot of the experience of climbing out of the train (twice); the train being one of my least favorite areas of the game. It wasn't though, but something about the longish bit of climbing and the way the camera moved brought back all sorts of bad memories of Uncharted 2.

That crew ain't going to eat themselves!
But seriously, that's how you find port reports (which, for the further they're out, are worth more) and more storylines with resultant questlines/missions/trade/smuggling/etc.
Late chapter 15 and beyond.

Damn that new DS3 trailer is incredible. Someone needs to hurry up and discount that preorder down to like 30-35$. Come on GMG..you can do it
Probably just cave in and pick it up for the fourtyfiver closer to release. Would be nice to get it lower.
Everyone's favorite grey market dealer, cdkeys, had it for $32 a month or two ago. I think it's up to $38+ now.
Having played a LOT of DS2:SotFS in the past 2 weeks, I just realized something that would be really handy would be for FROM to let you save loadouts of armor so you can easily have a few sets done up to switch at a bonfire or something. I suppose they could let you do it via the menus anywhere too, but I wonder if that would go against the design of "no pause" since it would make it easier and less risky to swap out armor on the fly.

To get your favorite Waifu(s) in the game?
You'll need to restart the cutscene in the command room several times to get your favorite soldiers.
You should see how fast PVPers ring swap and weapon swap, that speed is crazy.
