Download the offline installer of any of your games on GOG, save it to a disc and it's yours forever. You don't need a storefront's permission to play what you bought.

In other news the DK Rap had 1.5 million plays on Tik Tok ….. I got paid 56 cents

Playstation now cancelling physical arcade sticks

@GendoWasRight Yep, I've gone form a build with a 5800X3D and 5070ti to a ASUS Xbox Ally X and its made no difference to 99% of my gaming, other than it's cheaper electricity wise and I can play it anywhere

PC gaming discourse is WAY too focused on high-end performance. It's. becoming clear with console gamers now doubting their industry. PC gaming is great for plenty of reasons that have nothing to do with performance. howtogeek.com/760146/why-pc-…

Thank god for auto saves, I had a bug where I couldn't leave the cabin of my ship on Black Flag, so I reloaded the save file and this happened. Luckily I had auto saves from before I entered otherwise I'd have to restart the entire game

It's good to be back

Assassins Creed Black Flag Resynced - The Jackdaw #ACFinest #AssassinsCreedBlackFlagResynced #pcgaming

@K__Med Absolutely love it, it looks fantastic, the combat has been subtly improved and the friction of the modern day stuff has been removed

How's everyone liking Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced? I've been hearing and seeing really good things about it! I think I'm going to wait until a price drop before I try to grab a physical copy. I have so many damn games, no need to buy it right now in my case.

@G_a_l_v_a @peterf @GamingTech_HDR People have already used the Steamdeck with it, not to mention you can buy docks for things like the Steamdeck and Xbox Ally X which connect via USB-C and work fine with VRR

@AVGN82 @peterf @GamingTech_HDR VRR over USB-C……..I dont know man

Nintendo Switch 2 docked VRR support is still being worked on. This is the console’s biggest Achilles' heel right now. The hardware is great, but missing VRR is a massive missed opportunity. It would completely transform and smooth out heavy-hitting games on the big screen.

You can run but your balls can't hide

@Seraphin4891 @gabry0132 @GamingTech_HDR It's hugely beneficial for consoles ss many games don't lock to their framerate targets, particularly 3rd party games on Switch 2

@gabry0132 @GamingTech_HDR Isn’t VRR not that much imortant for console ? I mean they have stable fps so I don’t really see the point.

@gabry0132 @GamingTech_HDR This simply isnt true anymore

@GamingTech_HDR Most consumer grade tvs don’t have VRR. If they do, the average consumer has no idea what it is or why they might want it. This is just not a big deal tbh

@peterf @G_a_l_v_a @GamingTech_HDR The dock does have VRR support, its something to do with how the Switch 2 itself interacts with the dock

@G_a_l_v_a @GamingTech_HDR It's capable but the dock maybe isn't. New version of the dock pro

@PeterP_1985 @TheDazeel That looks normal to me

@TheDazeel Well thats gross. Does my post here view like that for you? It doesn't for me? x.com/i/status/20762…

Oh, by the way, big dislike for the new photo layout on here. Years of me making an effort to crop/frame pics into specific aspect ratios so they look their best on the feed gone down the shitter. Cool. 👍

@GMC_Reviews @SurvivorNo0322 The denoiser was only an issue in a few limited areas but this was never fixed with an update, it was simply turned off. Yet with the disc you can still play with RT in those areas

@SurvivorNo0322 Shipped with a broken RT denoiser that produced smeary artifacts, ghosting, and excessive visual noise on PS5 Pro but it's convenient to leave that little fact out, right?😉

Watching people parrot “discs always need a day one patch anyway” is embarrassing It’s complete bullshit. Capcom alone proved that wrong in 2026. Two massive releases shipped complete on disc , no download required, and both were sold out physically for months.

@OjChinx39757 @xcruiselord23 @FabrizioRomano Idiot

@xcruiselord23 @FabrizioRomano You don't give a yellow for this. There was a contact. Simulation is different from this. It's clear Argentina are buying this world cup

🚨 Switzerland head coach Yakin: “We were punished because of a mistake. There was no reason for that booking. I don’t understand it. It was an innocent situation; there was nothing malicious about it”. “That decision was simply unbelievable. I completely disagree with it. There was clear contact, and I don’t understand how the referee and the VAR came to that conclusion”. “I wouldn’t say they were being favored. We had a fair and open match. Both teams played football. Football wasn’t the winner today. We were punished by a mistake. It was a decisive moment that determined the outcome of the match. We can complain now, but I have to congratulate Argentina”.

@BBCSport Football is on very dodgy ground with how VAR is being used. It's certainly a dive but now we're looking at yellow cards? And if the Argentinian player never got booked, then it's never swapped to Embolo. There's too much ambiguity and VAR is overeaching

Breel Embolo was distraught after becoming the first player to be sent off as a result of the new ‘mistaken identity’ law 🟥 After a VAR review, he received a second yellow card for a dive when Argentina’s Leandro Paredes was initially cautioned for a foul ❌

@AbsoluteBruno So the sensor in the ball can tell when someone's hair brushes it and the ball never changes direction or it's spin but when it's hugely deflected off a cable, it senses nothing? I'm an England fan but this tournament is a joke

I didn’t even think this was possible, how did the refs miss something as obvious as this??

@TheRelaxDad @RENews_X That's fair enough, I think the RE1 Remake is outstanding and love the first half of RE7, really enjoyed Requiem too

@AVGN82 @RENews_X Okay, semantics aside, I just think it's a little limiting to say their 2nd ever crack at their prized IP was the greatest they ever accomplished. I agree that it's a masterpiece but I objectively have more fun with RE7 or even RE1. There ARE a lot of other good games to compare

🏆 Resident Evil 2 Has Been Voted the Greatest Resident Evil Game of All Time. More than 30,000 retro gamers took part in a massive fan tournament organized by Retro Dodo, where the community voted to determine the best Resident Evil game in the franchise’s history. 💪The competition featured multiple legendary entries from Capcom’s survival horror series, but the final round came down to two icons: Resident Evil 2 (1998) and Resident Evil 4 (2005). Despite Resident Evil 4 often being considered one of the greatest and most influential video games ever created, the original Resident Evil 2 took the victory and was officially chosen by fans as the best Resident Evil game of all time. 🗓️Released more than 25 years ago, Resident Evil 2 continues to stand as one of the defining survival horror experiences, thanks to its unforgettable Raccoon City atmosphere, dual campaigns with Leon and Claire, and lasting influence on the entire series.

@TheRelaxDad @RENews_X I mean that's a stretch as it includes several multiplayer modes as standalone games and it still isn't even 3 dozen. Not to mention that realistically most of them can't be argued as been better than RE2, which is what you were suggesting
