You know, something I really appreciated about LiS Ep. 3 is they actually modeled Chloe with her hat off. I know it's something really small, but so many games will just stick with the same model even it doesn't make sense with what they are doing. Like at the beginning of Second Son Delsin is in bed for who knows how long but they just leave him completely dressed with his stupid beanie on.

Borderlands with Rage's gun mechanics (weight and feel at least), would be interesting, but I'm guessing it'd be difficult to implement without compromising everything else. Too many gun types.
well, like, remove everything about boredlands, very little about that game is good anyways

how about

stalker with rage shooty mechanics

I really enjoyed rage and I even played it on 360.
Ending was kind of whack but I found the entire playthrough fun.
yeah it was like

oh you know that room you just cleared? that's the final room

good bye

You're doing the Lord's work son. Rogue-lite Low-Fi Doom. It's a good game, every time I see posts about it I get the urge to re-install and play it again.

Was my favorite that year it hit Steam. I'd been pretty bored with Roguelikes at that point but Teleglitch managed to hit everything I didn't think I'd wanted at once. Even the eye-ravaging software mode VGA Quake-esque visuals.

I've also never beaten it, because damn does it really get tough.

it's my favorite game, maybe. it's certainly up there in my top 10.

magnificently crafted, it's the hard(est) but fair game i've ever played.

I couldn't find any Street Fighter matches for a while, then I realized Steam switched over my DL region to Argentina for some reason. Well, I'm glad I figured that out right before the service probably goes down for an hour. =\

edit: Steam goes down during my match. gg

Worry not, cattle dearest. It's the black calm before the storm of purple. Before she returns to take back what is already hers. We are the gears thay grind, we are the loan that pays, we are the mouth that smiles, we are the heart that swoons - embrace the bloodrelated of the lost one.
 
Finally again on my PC.

Many thanks to all the folks posting tips on which monitor tech to choose.

Going from 1366x768 to 1920x1080 is a ginormous shift.
There is so much space suddenly!

Did you know that incredibly many pages have empty place on the sides at full-hd?

Even browsing Gaf is different. There's so much info on a single line and images as well!

Still trying to get used to this resolution. It's the firs time I have 1080p as a normal resolution for windows. Crazy. Totally recommend it to you all.

the internets is built for tablets and phones nowadays so widescreen is kind of fucked for browsing

now you get to experience the joy of side ads
 


... aaaaaaand it's out of EA ... well, that was fast ;)
Reminds me of that one 3DS game.
While the performance and scaling of The Witcher 3 is mostly great (with a few oddities that tweaking in the GUI doesn't quite give the results I'd expect) the really story is this...

21:9 support out the box! Cutscenes are pillar box to 16:9 but I can live with that and more of a sign CDPR have taken multi-monitor and ultrawide monitor setup in to account (Max Payne 3 and GTA V still have the best blending for multi-monitors even though MP3 fucks up on 21:9 during cinematics).
21:9 really looks nifty :O
I bumped Textures to Ultra, Grass and Foliage to High and game still runs at 30 FPS :D Here are some HUD free screenshots. Remember this is just small opening area XD
Not gonna lie. Your screens are on promo-levels of beautiful!

Yeah, thats like a ssd a quality of life gamechanger. I used to run on cheap laptops and was amazed about my first 1080p monotor. Next stop for you: two full monitors. I tell ya, it's fantastic.

Is the crow Zeus?

Is he going to get some?
It's The Witcher, not The Gyrotcher. Don't put Greece together with Central Europe.

Life is Strange: Episode 3 was just a whirlwind of different feels. Patiently waiting for Episode 4.

Also,
Lisa, I'm so sorry. : (

I was really surprised to see so many pages not having "widescreen modes" like they have "mobile modes".

It looks a bit weird when about 50% is empty, haha.
I'll be able to experience that on a daily basis from this Saturday onwards.
Nice! Mine came just today, so we are not that far apart :D
I also went from a 16 or 17 inch 1366x768 to a 23" 1920x1080 awhile back and it was quite a jump up. Really puts you in the game, and blu rays look great on it.
Wow that is a huge leap for you. I haven't yet watched any movies but something sci-fi with many effects would look cool I'm sure.
Maybe I'll watch some Elite or Star Citizen gameplay :eek:

Hah. Not sure how compatibility and performance would go at 1080 times two. On my desk there is just barely even place for two screens at this size. But for devs/modellers I can see the extreme advantages of so much space!

My coworker just got a new laptop today that has a resolution like 3200x1800 or something. Everything is tiny on there.

I ain't no dev, but you can for example play a game on fullscreen and watch Netflix at the same time. Or watch two pornos on fullscreen at once.

On that.

What Wallpapers are you good folks using right now?
Samaritan's order.

I once hooked my 768p monitor to my 768p laptop. When I opened a game on one screen, I couldn't just go with my mouse to the other and click there. Upon clicking the game would minimize always :/

having two monitors was the best

concept art on one screen, blender on my other screen, or just code and level editor

this is why every game needs borderless windowed. completely negates that issue.
 
This is interesting. Sounds to me like a similar thing to Kinect where your room gets flooded with IR. Could lead to cool stuff especially since the dev said you could plaster your hands with sensors and have them in-game!

Are you an actual game dev? (Just curious)

Oh! Now it makes sense why I read so often people wanting to have that feature in games. Thanks iosefe. Something new learned.
 
My wife opened a link with malware she got through facebook, the damn thing started to send more links to everyone on both her and my friendlists, it was shooting messages all over the place like crazy.
Out of everything I tried only Malwarebytes was able to detect and delete it, the damn thing was starting to drive me crazy.
So yeah, I recomend Malwarebytes for this kind of problem.

Borderless Windowed is the magix. And even if doesn't have that with a game you can still throw Netflix in that automatically goes to the next episode. This is how I consumed Clone Wars while playing other stuff.

Left monitor is my secondary, 23" 16:10 at 1440x900 to look more or less in scale with my 27" 1080p monitor and their respective heights.

games are run borderless on the right screen while i browse gaf or do other things on the left.

Uninvited is the perfect hoarding simulator. My inventory in Shadowgate was quite packed when I was finished with it, but that game has nothing on this one. I currently have 3 pillows, various bottles, kitchen utensils, and much more. The atmosphere is pretty creepy, and I expect to get stuck any minute now. Btw, there are spiders in this game.
