Quoting: pbThis makes no sense. Why not September 16?Most game release happen on Tuesday/Thursday and it's been this way for a long time now :smile:

As a side note, some purist will never like the remake version of RE2 because of the changes they made to it, but I like it just as much as the original :smile:

Quoting: PenglingResident Evil 2 has always been my favourite of the bunch. It's just a pity that re-releases are inevitably missing the content that was added to the Nintendo 64 version*!Personally, I prefer the PS1 version because it's the one that I played originally and didn't have any interest in the Nintendo N64 to play the game again when it was rereleased, despite the additions on that version. Also, I still like the fact that it was innovative at the time on PS1 imho since no other game managed to have the story converged, regardless of which disk you started out with first.
*That port was an incredible technical feat [External Link] in and of itself, crunching down two CD-ROMs into one 64MB cartridge, and then it managed to have more to it than the other versions! :shock:

Quoting: clatterfordslimYou cannot beat the original Resident Evil 2.I felt the same way when I was trying out Proton for the first time and came away disappointed because it didn't convince me that Linux was ready to play Windows games. However, once I got the Steam Deck and try out a bunch of games, I was amazed that it played Windows games better than I expected. Now, I'm thinking of building a PC to use one of the SteamOS variants like Bazzite, ChimeraOS, etc.
Looking forward to this being released and will be playing it on my ArcoLinux Gaming PC. I've finally taken the plunge and moved to Linux full time for gaming, as before relying on Windows. Just played through Uncharted 4 through Proton and can honestly say I am enjoying gaming in Linux. I poo pooed Proton when it first released and thought it would never get off the ground, but that was mainly in it's first year. Since then, with the Steam-Deck release and the amazing work done in Proton and WINE for us to be able to play PC games, from nearly on first day release, is amazing.

If you're thinking about Windows due to other stores and launchers, perhaps first look into the likes of the Heroic Games Launcher and NonSteamLaunchers.I don't think launchers is the biggest reason to use Windows but more like those that want to use mods that don't work well in Linux or play games with crappy anti-cheat software like Ricochet from Activision and the ones from EA would be why they go back to it. Solve and fix issues like the ones I've mentioned and Linux would be a good alternative to ditch Windows.
Until Dawn remake arrives on PC October 4, requires PSN account

I remember getting this game for free when it was PS Plus back then and never got around to playing it. I guess I'll wait for a sale on this one to buy it for the Steam Deck since I still have an active PSN account that should work with linking.

Quoting: CatKillerI guess I better start cracking on that website in hopes of scoring a Steam Deck in the future :smile:Quoting: ToddLI'm always tempted to try out these Preview/Beta builds but too afraid that'll make changes on my Steam Deck that might cause more problems. Now, if I had a spare Steam Deck, I would go for it but don't have the funds for another one right now.All you need to do is run a gaming website for many, many years, and then Valve will send them to you for free. EZ.
Valve attempts to deal with jokes, memes and ASCII art reviews on Steam

Quoting: MrSeatbeltYES!Those types of reviews are the worse and I'll be glad when we don't have to see them ever again.
Put an end to those steam point farmers, tired of all the "If this gets 400 likes and 40 community awards my friend will buy me a 4090 and a sack of lemons" or "I will eat a spoon of hot sauce for every 5 likes this review gets".
Now just make jesters give you no points to stop incentivizing toxicity :wink:

The Beamdog & Owlcat RPG Humble Bundle has some killer games in it

If I didn't have a majority of the games that this bundle offered, I would've jumped onto the $35 tier and not care about the coupon they're throwing in for Mythforce.
