Message for supporters: which way/site is the best (I mean with less charges from plateform, currency change, so with more money that directly go to GOL) for a €uro bank account as mine?

The Linux-powered Atari VCS is getting upgraded to AMD Ryzen, shipping dates pushed back

Quoting: Narvarth...
You seem to be keen to defend this project, which is probably laudable.
In the meantime, this VCS Atari does not exist and the list of things you write are only ads for the moment, not real. We are only discussing communication, which is "our" point. Moreover, their communication plays on two bankable teats that cannot defend against such image grabbing: nostalgia and geek/linuxian desire for such an emblematic flagship machine.
When the console will be there, people like me at worst will be silent, at best will take their hat off.
Personally, my only fear is that this kind of project will add one argument more to Linux detractors against our OS as suitable for gaming, which should affect us all at GOL

New paper on the VCS Atari (with facts ;) ) ... why we should fear this project [External Link]

Quoting: Geppeto35A paper by a specialist on this project (google translate it ;) ) [External Link]
The author of this blog is not a "specialist", but just a guy like you and me. There is litterally no information in this (old) article, just his opinion and assumptions.

He explains that Atari has been lying since the beginning of this project, and why the Atari VCS will never get a Ryzen. So funny when you read this news.
it shall be funny and I will disavow when you will get this Atari on your hand, working as claimed...for the moment, the implied guys are pros for crowdfunding resulting in nothing (demonstrated with facts on their previous projects in those series of paper). Moreover, concerning the author, he is not "just a guy like you and me" but develops with real factories (...not communication agencies, see the difference?) small computers and related hardware solution for years (being before those years himself a specialized journalist on mini-computers and laptops in a high audience specialized journal). Yep, for sure "a guy like you" as you say (not me, you don't know my job dude). Thanks for your reasoned and factual return :whistle:
But I understand that it can be disturbing I wanted to believe in this project also :(

The innovative FPS 'Shotgun Farmers' has left Early Access with a tasty update

It would be too long, but...some retarded farmers running on pigs who shoot other farmers with plants!?

No, gaming is officially dead.
Clearly you have no sense of humour.
Totally agree with Liam: it's clearly a fun game and I enjoy playing with my son of 13 like a paintball/dodgeball video game. It's fresh, fast and funny. The idea of shooting seeds that can grow to give you fresh full ammo bring new tactic and strategies above the "humour" of the style. That escaping chicken to catch and keep in team is so amusing.

My 2-cents: hypothesis1/ few players because parents leave children to play adult-game (how many children on CSGO, GTA5 & cie?), hypothesis2/ too many "free" to play FPS on windows OS (apex, fortnite & cie) and hypothesis3/ few adults 'cause they believe a true FPS should happen with comic-like-muscles, violence, tuning cars and testosteron?

Quoting: ThormackJust wish they use some English names for the towns.
Can't even pronounce the Russian ones.
great and good thing to open to other cultures, other sounds, other states of minds and modes of reflection. Welcome to the real world, which is far not only English speaking even if economy, sciences, teaching, etc. are pushing hard for every people on earth speak it (who said linguistic -and-by-the-way cultural- colonization?). :whistle:

Just discovered Stellaris with my son of 13. Amazing game! (even if it's true price with dlc on big sales results in a normal price of a normal game i.e. ~50 € :O )

On sale on fanatical with the 8% more with LUNAR8
