Remember the SMACH Z handheld? It's apparently going to be at E3 this year

Quoting: KlausThe switch is pretty cheap actually at 300-330€, and comes with access to traditionally developed "full" games
…which are overpriced as hell, especially indie games, and you have to re-buy them even if you've got them on Steam or elsewhere.
Quoting: KlausLacking this support, games that will run well on a Switch will likely fall behind quickly on the much more expensive SMACH.
Or they will not. Anyway, Smach is a computer, so you'll be able to tweak games to get better performance.
But do games run well on Switch? I've seen on Youtube how games look and perform there, and it's horrible. Ugly graphics, low resolution and bad framerate for your 60€. MK11 looks worse than the mobile version of MK.
Quoting: KlausIt also will have to fight with the battery-life and performance implications of running a full desktop OS with traditional pre-mobile multitasking.
But if that OS is Linux… :wink:

Quoting: UltraAltesBrotWhy purchase an expensive new device when you already have a smartphone or tablet?
Say this to Nintendo.

Sweeney: There is a popular crowdfunded game we should make EGS exclusive, Outer W-something.
Galyonkin: I googled two games, which one?
Sweeney: I'm not sure, just get both.
D9VK sees a first actual release for getting Direct3D 9 games running on Vulkan with Wine

I tried it with Resident Evil 4 (it's very glitchy with regular Wine), and it stucks on the loading screen.
Easy Anti-Cheat is actually still supported for Linux, a statement from Epic Games

And we, of course, believe Epic Games and Sweeney for they never lied before (*sarcasm*).
Easy Anti-Cheat are apparently "pausing" their Linux support, which could be a big problem (updated)

We're focused on a single version of Hades while the game is in Early Access. It's available on the Epic Games store for now and will come to other platforms once Early Access is complete.
And that Early Access is purely coincidentally complete exactly one year after it appeared on EGS.
Despite the high price, the initial batch of Valve Index headsets have sold out on pre-orders

Quoting: dpanterI would love to know how many units we're talking about.
More than two, but less than four.
NVIDIA have two new drivers out with 430.09 and the Vulkan beta driver 418.52.05

I installed 430.09 driver on my main computer and my laptop, and now Steam doesn't launch on my laptop showing 'X Error' in the terminal.
DXVK 1.0.3 is released while work towards fixing up DXVK 1.1 continues

Quoting: YoRHa-2BIt just means that you don't have any system memory left that the graphics driver could allocate from, and looking at your profile, I can certainly see why - 4GB just don't cut it for an entire Linux desktop and this game.
Shouldn't 4GB be enough for this game, especially for 1280×1024 resolution? It even has GTX 770 (2GB) as a recommended card.
