If anyone is interested...

UP - Intel x5-Z8300 board (Kickstarter) Can emulate Gamecube, INSANELY SMALL.

KICKSTARTER - Target goal already met.



Design based on Raspberry Pi, mostly as adevelopmet platform, but this can be used as a anormal PC, so you can isntall Windows, Linux or any other OS and you can install games on it.

Here is an example of it's capabilities running Dolphin, this is based on a commercial tablet with the same atom architecture for comparisons sake:


Why is this good for gaming?

1. The new CherryTrail platform is great for gaming, can run games from 2010 and below at medium/low settings
2. Can be used for streaming games through Steam or Moonlight
3. Low power usage and small form factor, could be modified into a portable handheld.
4. Emulation performance is pretty good, should be able to emulate Gaemcube games, can "run" PSP
5. has enough ports for gamepads and other devices you may want to hook up.



Why don't I just use a Small factor PC / Windows Stick/ Tablet instead?

1. smallest form factor that does not sacrifice ports, not tied down to a tablet interface or design of a box, can be integrated into other things.
2. more ports anf functionailty make it more expandable taht most boards
3. GPIO is a huge benefit for button / board integration
4. One of the first iterations on where we can just buy the atom board by itself with no extra junk.
5. Should be a lot easier to modify a heatsink for the cpu.


Hopefully we can see projects like this:

SPECS:

 

[Turfster]

Oh, totally missed the start of the sale. Did i miss a pricing error or something?

€: oh, no games are showing up. Steam pls.

They care so fucking little the damn garbage search isn't even showing the sale stuff any more.
Hell, the banner even disappeared.

[AHA-Lambda]

Only took a quick glance at my wishlist so far but these discounts are shit.

 

[chronomac]

Escape Goat 2 is $3.99, which matches an all-time low. Same with Crypt of the Necrodancer at $7.49, although both have been on sale before.

 

[Sober]

In other news, I noticed Unity and Rogue have had their regular prices dropped to 30$ finally, so I'm hoping to pick those up on sale by Christmas.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

Only took a quick glance at my wishlist so far but these discounts are shit.

Almost none of the games actually on sale show discounts on my wishlist, I've had to check each one individually.

 

[Omaer]

Any good deals on racing games or DLC?

 

[jaundicejuice]

Sale stopped showing the list and now it's missing from my client. Gabe must agree and probably cancelled the sale.

 

[crazyrabbits]

Guys, Labyronia RPG is legit. Get the bundle for 50 cents. Got 10 hours of playtime out of the first game alone.

 

[MMBosstones86]

I hate to quote myself, but....

Wow

 

[KingKong]

Gabe saw us complaining about the deals and cancelled the sale. hope you're happy

 

[Jazz573]

How much is SC in USD? It's $34.99 CDN ($26.5752 USD).

 

[Cth]

No Lakeview Cabin sale

It's showing 25% off for me.

 

[Adnor]

This better be good, AnimeSteamGAF

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

$29.99 USD

 

[Ludens]

Here base price is 40€. Thanks Ubi, not even 1:1 conversion.

 

[GaussTek]

Is it just me or GAF has been terribly slow this morning?

Please, don't die on me today that we have TitS SC launch / Halloween Sale / Humble Weekly

 

[Dragon1893]

It's Bethesda though is such a thing even a possibility

Well, I bought the base game at 75%, though that was on gmg. I'm sure the pass will hit $5 somewhere in the not so distant future.

 

[corrosivefrost]

No. From PSN I only take stuff from Plus or thing I can't get elsewhere (Okami, Suikoden, God Hand).

Then do as nabs suggested ... hell, even just buy it with the 50% off coupon... it's only $1.49 difference from the price it was discounted on PSN.

 

[Jazz573]

$29.99 USD

So it's about $2.50 cheaper here.

 

[Chance Hale]

Poor Pathologic going up minutes before a massive seasonal sale starts.

 

[Durante]

This better be good, AnimeSteamGAF

It's good. You have to be able to appreciate something slower-paced though.

 

[r3n4ud]

It's showing 25% off for me.

Ya, I posted after that it received a 25% discount

 

[Dragon1893]

Downloading SC and getting really shitty speeds.
Just yelled at my ISP but to no avail. Fuck them and this shitty overpriced service.

 

[ramoisdead]

While not at its lowest, I hardly ever see the game on sale and I actually enjoyed playing it on the 360. Price is at $7.49

 

[Ruruja]

Yeah it was the same for me until a couple of minutes ago, funny because freshVeggie was saying it's faster than ever for him lol. Maybe it's an issue with DNS servers.

 

[Lomax]

That would break Kickstarter lol

 

[Se7enSword]

Same. Getting half the speed.

Too much load on servers I guess

I know its Ravensoft but I can't stomach many horror-inspired areas or settings.

You sure it's on your ISP? Servers usually get shit on sale time. Try changing your download region, but before that check if it really is your ISP by going to speedtest.

 

[crazyrabbits]

Sale's over. Go home.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Was OOTP16 already 75% off?

World Series promo

 

[Ludens]

Then do as nabs suggested ... hell, even just buy it with the 50% off coupon... it's only $1.49 difference from the price it was discounted on PSN.

The rule is 75% off or nothing.*

*Excluding rare occasions.

**Because I'm broke and I need to put this rule on myself if I want continue to play, lol. Not because a game is not worth full price or something.

 

[Salsa]

fucking holy shit oh my god

 

[Visualante2]

£8.99 seems like a good price for Talos Principle. I've been waiting for a decent discount.

 

[JaseC]

2spooky4me sadly ToT
I know its Ravensoft but I can't stomach many horror-inspired areas or settings.

But it's Raven's swansong!

 

[Dascu]

Malebolgia will be 75% off for the duration of the sale.

Eh, I won't categorically say everybody can play it, but the horror elements really aren't something I remember from this game. Maybe some gruesome monsters, at best.

 

[Last Baron]

I'm lost on this one, I thought they were already wheeling and dealing with Paradox on Pillars?

 

[Khronico]

2spooky4me sadly ToT
I know its Ravensoft but I can't stomach many horror-inspired areas or settings.

From what I remember there's only one major section that's spooky.

The game does have an overall pretty spooky atmosphere but I was able to handle it and I'm a total coward.

 

[chronomac]

Some of y'all are acting like this is your first Steam sale. Every one of them starts with a couple glitches. Relax.

 

[Tizoc]

But it's Raven's swansong!

Yeah I know, I may just end up getting it once it's $5 on amazon, etc. out of principle and one day plow through it...so that on future replays it wouldn't be 2spooky4me :3

 

[Dragon1893]

You sure it's on your ISP? Servers usually get shit on sale time. Try changing your download region, but before that check if it really is your ISP by going to speedtest.

Not sure if it's a coincidence but it's going a lot faster since I turned off the phone lol.
Wasn't getting past 200kbs and now it's all over the place with peaks at 1,5 mbs. I dunno, I had a 2.5 hour window to download and play a bit but it doesn't look like I'll even finish the download. It's 3.4 gb for fuck's sake!

Edit: now it's going at over 3mbs. I was downloading for 30 minutes without going beyond 200kbs before I made the call..

 

[Branson]

Dying Light is so stubborn price wise.

 

[Lomax]

I'm lost on this one, I thought they were already wheeling and dealing with Paradox on Pillars?

Paradox just bought the V:TM/White Wolf license from CCP.

 

[jaundicejuice]

Hey so with Arkham Knight's Windows 7 hard drive paging issue is GPU related. Is that cards without 3GB of vram?

Warner Bros. still acknowledges "a hard drive paging issue with some GPUs on Windows 7" that requires players to periodically restart the game to fix.

If I ever buy this on PC it's going to be for 5$ and only when I have a machine that can brute force it, but even that doesn't seem to be a guarantee...

"If you're running a top-of-the-line system, you might find this playable (although that's not a guarantee) but otherwise you should stay away for performance reasons alone," one reviewer wrote. "I was one of the lucky, hated few for whom, on release, the game worked well for... Now the game crashes every 120 seconds in the batmobile, and around every 8 minutes on foot," wrote another.

http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2015/...problematic-arkham-knight-for-pc-12gb-of-ram/

One thing's for damn sure, I am never pre-ordering a game published by Warner Bros.

Malebolgia will be 75% off for the duration of the sale.

just me or this game reminds me of Anor Londo from Dank Souls?

anyway, browsing GAF during a sale is bad for my wallet, my currency is pegged to the USDollar so that eases me a little.
