Yeah, the visuals in the FFXV demo are very uneven and the IQ is terrible.
I found it interesting though. It's a curious mix between demo and tech demo, you can mess around with the weather and the day/night cycle and control different creatures and vehicles. Having it take place inside a dream allowed them to go to town.
Combat seems simplistic but I really like the warp mechanic.
The game has potential to look incredible on PC if they give us the option for higher quality textures.

You want a quality knife? Because I am not sure you can find a good one that is cheaper than 30 bucks.

Just a basic Swiss knife serves me well. They got those $15 ones with like a blade but the $30 was one I owned before and served my basic daily needs.

How Nintendo crushed the 1980s PC market with the NES

The Digital Antiquarian blog has published a fascinating new history of how Nintendo took on personal computers in the U.S. -- and won -- in the 1980s, with its Nintendo Entertainment System console.

The post takes in how the NES ushered out the age of the Commodore 64 in the U.S. -- with incendiary quotes from the popular 8-bit computer's fans, naturally -- and how companies like Activision and Elctronic Arts responded to Nintendo's massive and unexpected success.

I lost my pocket knife somewhere. Anybody know where I can buy this one for cheap?

I need this to survive so I can buy more Steam games, of course.

I have a Wenger Swiss Army and a Leatherman.

The Wenger is for everyday odd jobs and convenient.

The Leatherman is for when shit gets real.

I love stuff like that. Will definitely give it a read.

Maybe one is the typical Ubisoft Bullshot Demo (I mean you can also play these more polished, better looking demos at E3 and gamescom) and one is the real product.

Mine is 4 years old and still running awesomely. I play everything in ultra except ubisoft shit.

I'm tempted to all out and get a build with a GTX 980ti etc and have it lasted me a good few years before I need to upgrade parts

These are my specs:
Intel (R) Core(TM) i7-3820 CPU @ 3,60GH - 4 cores
Nvidia GeForce GTX 670
4x 4GB DDR3 RAM

I bought it when the 680 came up, so it was fairly new, but now it's falling behind mainly for being 2gb only. That being said, I don't find any problems playing on ultra unless the game is poorly optimized or too high end.

Really tempted. Since in however many years it'll be when it starts lagging behind I can just upgrade a few parts and it'll be sorted.

Well done on avoiding it. If I hadn't seen it on launch weekend, it would have been spoiled for me when I played Wind Waker HD and picked up a Miiverse bottle.

In Steam news, does anyone have those set up videos for the Vive that came out recently? There were three posted at the same times and I get the feeling that Valve made them.

10 years to be done, the game still runs like crap, and of course SE already ensured us there will be DLCs.
I mean, all of us expected DLCs for the game (it's SE after all), but at least polish your game before talking of additional contents.

It's at the point where management is pushing the game out no matter what. They want it out no matter how poor it looks or perform. The IQ will probably be fixed but the gameplay I wouldn't expect much. There is a reason why they are ditching their own engine for UE4.

DLC for any game is the norm now. Even 3DS games have DLC. I guess it's a way to balance out the hefty cost associated with making AAA games in 2016.

 

[r3n4ud]

Broken Sword Complete Pack is the daily for $13.99.

I own the first and second game, so the other games in the pack come to $15.90 for me. I have to pay more for owning some of the games. Okay.

Cheaper than buying them separately, I guess.

[Erekiddo]

I genuinely hope someone can help with this issue. It's maddening and making me pull my hair out in frustration. I've googled and found lots of different answers, none of which have helped.

Has anyone else running Windows 10 had issues with Steam games randomly minimizing themselves while playing full screen? It isn't particular to a certain game and seems to occur at random times.

I've tried to look at Event Viewer with no luck. I don't see any sort of pop-up stealing attention, it just aimless dumps me back to the desktop.

Anyone?

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Lets be honest, at this point if you entered steamGaf and it wasn't a flaming wreak you would be more surprised.

 

[morningbus]

KnifeGAF needs to talk about their knives constantly. They need to be looking at a knife constantly. When they need something new their only thought is of knives.

They use their knives to slice away everything else in their lives.

Anime is just another knife.
