System Shock remake due to release in March

Quoting: pete910Wish people would understand what PC means feckin morons
It's annoying, but expected since Apple made ads that told everyone that a Mac was not a “PC” (which was obviously Windows).

I doubt that there will be a native version since this is still Nightdive. I'm still waiting for the System Shock 2 source code release that Mr Kick promised many years ago.

I wonder if I'm the only one that reads CDC as centers for desease control. An unfortunate name.

All in all this reminds me of https://xkcd.com/927/ [External Link]

Makes me think of loot boxes. Well done ASUS.

Quoting: Loftyso long as it has proper dual shock vibration
Integrate a Fein Multimaster for vibration purposes. From start to numb hands in 5 minutes.

What I want to see in 2023 for Linux, Gaming, Steam Deck and more
1 Jan 2023 at 2:24 pm UTC Likes: 1

What I want from GOG is

1) add the missing Linux versions
2) restore Saints Row IV's offline installers without EOS including the removed DLCs
3) restore access to Spear of Destiny missions packs that got removed during the upgrade

What I want from Steam is to fix some bugs like https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/8164 [External Link] which is very annoying.

To be fair, although JSAUX clearly has to do some explaining – at this point I feel even inventing a data leak would be better than silence – they are not responsible for the escalation.

I'm sure that there cannot be enough warnings around when people want to believe that they can buy a genuine 1 TB Elite Extreme Plus for 14 €. Studies have shown that discounts can trigger the same brain regions as drugs.

Has there been any kind of explanation from JSAUX regarding the lost/leaked email addresses?

Steam Deck OS update fixes factory reset, Forza Horizon 5 OS update in Preview

One of my Steam Decks would wake up by itself, and it happened multiple times in a row.
That sounds really annoying.

I've recently managed to get the audio crackling after standby bug that I've been reading about.

Proton Hotfix from Valve gets The Witcher 3 next-gen DX12 working on Steam Deck
15 Dec 2022 at 11:37 pm UTC

Quoting: EhvisThey could have (and it's what I expected) back-ported the DX12 support from CP2077 into the game for a more solid implementation.
That's what I expected as well since I read the announcement of the “upgrade”, although I wasn't sure about the solid part.
