How long did it take for you to beat it? Did you use any guide? Did you care for achievements/missables or just plowed through it?
Does Disney not still own/release the Turok game?

That Narnia game looks like a real piece of trash, no clue it existed.
No guide. 41 hours according to steam. I don't care for achievements at all but I opened and completed all the doors.

It's in copyright hell. Bish is still trying to work with nightdive on getting the rights.
I think basically Disney owns the entire game, just not the Turok IP itself.
So a rerelease would need to either have the game bought out from disney or a compromise made. Since nightdive currently owns the video game IP rights.

Gotta have those Dino qtes. Definetly beat that game and it's all I remember lol.

Oh
Then there's the issue of paying voice actors and such depending on the contracts they had signed. There was some decently named actors as VAs in the game such a Ron Perlman. So that could be an issue if it's supposed to be a sort of royalty thing.

The game is real.
Thanks for the input, sadly I've tried that.
I believe the hdmi cable is 1.3. Had no idea this was a thing.
What cable should I get to test this out?
What method of downsampling are you using, because I'm pretty sure what Grief said is false.
Think about it...if you output at 1080p signal from the game, it's generated in your GPU and sent out on the HDMI cord as a series of pixel colour information to display on your screen. If you downsample using DSR or tricking Windows, it's taking the 1440p or 4k information and giving it to your GPU to downsample to a 1080p signal and send it out along the HDMI cable to your monitor. It's still a 1080p signal, just with slightly different pixel colour information than a non-downsampled one (different colour values per pixel, not different style of information).
So unless you are sending out a 1440p signal to your monitor and letting it downsample (which as far as I know, is impossible), your HDMI cable can not tell whether you are downsampling or not.
So I'm going to give Trails in the Skies a legit shot, finally. I played 90 minutes tonight and it seems fine so far.
Are there any configuration options I should change that might not be obvious? I set to to HAL/1080p/32 bit and kept most every graphical option checked. I only ask because the opening cinematic seemed super wonky.

Assuming you mean the first game, the FMVs were updated to be higher quality recently and IIRC something went wrong with that one. It's probably not an issue on your end.

The only thing I'd recommend is using the d3d8 wrapper if you're having any occasional stuttering.

good ol anime shepard
If any old Capcom series needs to come back, due sorely to silly fanaticism, it's DuckTales. Ducktales 2 needs a remastered edition. NES game is a lot of fun, but I'm curious what they could change with it's slightly more open ended nature.
This on the other hand, I rather just have a new Turok game. Sure the N64 games were good-ish for their time, but it's not as though they did a great justice or love for the comic it was based off of.

Bought the Surge, hopefully I play it for more than 30 minutes like with Lords of the Fallen.

The realest of games
Few people know this, but Dino Crisis 3 is the real reason we have no working Xbox emulator: People start working on it for the Halos and then come to realize they would, at some point, release this dinosaur-themed menace on an unsuspecting world and proceed to destroy their work.

People trippin about no half-life 3 when we already had dino crisis 3.

Yeah, it's a Disney game, but the IP, which originated as a comic book series, is owned by the book publisher Penguin Random House.

I started playing Slayer Shock as my short burst game - the spiritual successor to Eldritch.
Man, that game has some charm to it - the music is just so good - like cheesy good. They really know how to do low fidelity graphics and still manage the get the game to look good. What's most important is, that the game FEELS good. I have yet to get another weapon other than then Pointy or the nail gun, but murdering Vampires feels great. Like in Eldritch you can stealth your way through the levels, or just try to kill everything, which is right now, not that easy depending on what mission you are. I can see it being a little lighter on content than Eldritch and they have not done an udate since Halloween, but maybe they already work on their next thing. I follow everything they do, they nail the gameplay and look aprt very often. I have yet to try Neon Struct though, which seems to be the better game according to reviews.

I have been playing Mini Metro lately and now four of my rarest achievement are from the game.
All achievements have less than 0.5% players who have completed them
The others are from Mighty no 9.
I have the Istanbul one as my rarest atm. I wanted to try the other two new maps but it turned out I hadn't done the prerequisite maps as they were new as well! Been a while since I've played it.
It didn't take long time for me to get back to the game. I even play better than last time. But after watching videos on how other play the game.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
well fuck, I can't unsee that
Did you notice how PSN is actually offering much better deals compared to Steam?
Some examples: the last Sherlock Holmes is 76% off with Plus (40% off on Steam), Umbrella Corps is 85% off with Plus (60€ off on Humble right now), 2Dark is 50% off on PSN, 40% off on Steam.
And the trends continues with TT Batman and many other games, which are heavily discounted compared to Steam/Humble and generally Steam key authorized sellers.

Well you are paying for Plus aint ya?
It's worth keeping in mind that the higher discounts PS+ users get (versus non-paying members, that is) are due to Sony forgoing some of its cut, so the PSN version of a multiplatform game having a deeper discount is not necessarily due to the publisher being more aggressive with pricing than on Steam. But, yeah, "Game discounts are better on Steam than PSN/XBL" is no longer as true as it once was.

Publishers decides prices and such. Keep in mind that for these "better deal" you pay 50 bucks a year to get a slightly better price on some titles. For 50 bucks, I prefer to buy 2 cheaper games I actually wanted.
Make it a drinking game
-Take a shot when the camera changes into a confusing angle
-Take a shot when the one playing gets disoriented by the camera changes
-Take a shot when a dumb explanation pops up
-Take a shot whenever the Jetpack is used
-Take a shot when something stupid happens. (RIP)

I can't remember if Dino Crisis 3 would have actually been an ok game if it didn't have the worst camera system of all time which leads to not being able to see yourself half of the time.
Watch a bit of a playthrough to see its many issues gameplay wise. Also the voice acting is definitely terrible for most of the part.
The camera and the movement would get confusing with camera changes and the fact that a lot of the dinosaurs will sometimes start attacking before getting on camera giving you a small chance to escape in situations was an exercise of frustration. The game had interesting ideas but the execution is a mess on all fronts.

I've been striving for that for years.
Dino Crisis has at least 4 games, drop them into a $40 compilation release and we good :V
