Speaking of Steam and consoles, apparently the "Steam console" thing was just a rumor.

DEBUNKED: Valve Is Building a 'Steam Console' To Rival PS5 and Xbox, Rumour Claims

The latest rumours have suggested that Valve is (still) building a 'Steam console' to rival PlayStation and Xbox units.

That's unfortunate, to be honest. Rather than hardware, it would be nice to have SteamOS available to install on an existing PC.

calling it now. you cant kill the end early. the bonus ocelot unit fights are missing / you cannot fill the criteria for them and either you cannot remove the transmitter anymore or they cut out the waterfall scene completely.

That is what I fear, I am waiting for the retrospective of all the things missing in the remake.

They said they went out of their way to keep the loading zones and AI behavior the same, I doubt they'd cut out the actual features after presenting that kind of autism. Only things missing might be the monkes on non-Sony consoles, and the funny nightmare game, like in the HD/Master Collection.

Either the remake is great and we all win, or the remake is ass and we still all win because we get to watch our favorite MGS streamers play it and dog on it the whole time.

At the very least, they didn’t try to redo the voices. I wonder how many hoops they had to jump through for that.

I hope it's good because if I have to see Dunkey, 5 Peso Pedro and Troonjim Sterling's faces making up absolute bullshit and talking about "Kojima's legacy" to shit on another MGS game I might commit a hate crime.

No, I mean actual MGS content creators. Like ones that clown on Kojima while playing MGS marathons with modded versions of the game.

I mean, you know you don't have to watch them, right? The only time I've ever seen Jim Sterling was because Josh showed him on MATI.

I know, but when MG Survive was coming out, most of MGS discourse online was their retarded fans screeching and parroting their videos at people who are trying to talk about something else.

Should have gone further than that, imo.

...what was the last video game remake that both:

A: worked on modern PCs

B: didn't cut out a bunch of interesting stuff for the sake of a more "modern" experience?


This is a legitimate question btw, I'm trying to think of one and actually can't...

This is a legitimate question btw, I'm trying to think of one and actually can't Dead Rising cut out a bunch and was AI generated, all the Sims stuff doesn't work, etc...

Paradox Interactive Acquires Tropico Developer Haemimont Games

Paradox Interactive has signed a binding agreement to acquire all shares in Haemimont Games (known for Tropico series and Jagged Alliance 3).

worthplaying.com

I haven't played one of their games since Tropico 5 and I don't think I've heard great things since then. More mandated DLC won't be too different from what they're used to.

I'm last-minute grinding in Arknights before the 7-hour maintenance, and every day I do not get Endfield access is a hate crime against me, personally. To further fill the void, here's another roundup of games I'm at least tangentially aware of.

Cardfight!! Vanguard Dear Days 2 released the other week to horrendous bugs, translation errors, and a high cost of entry, but because it is the best place to play the card game digitally, there is no alternative! If you're not a turbo-fan of the series, wait 1-2 years for it to go on sale and possibly fix the issues. Otherwise, I doubt this is going to get new people into the game, especially with the $70 + DLC price tag:



This week in Warframe, the Rhino Heirloom pack released. Next week in Warframe, Lavos Prime will release. In March, the TechnoCyte Coda will release, alongside four new protoframes, and the new Temple Warframe (Rebecca accidentally leaked that they're also getting a protoframe - sasuga). I am still incapable of pursuing Warframe Wednesday due to extended tech issues that I mald about each day, but hopefully it'll be resolved soon! Maybe! I need my fix.



Space Engineers 2 released in early access for those who want to satiate their building autism. While the systems are an improvement over the first game, it is not yet a true "replacement", so give it some more time to add more content (it is more or less a barebones skeleton to showcase the new systems before content is added). At least I have higher hopes with these developers than Kerbal Space Program 2! I trust your ability to read the Alpha disclaimer on the steam page if you are interested in purchasing this, because of how much they stress this is just a skeleton, and to see the roadmap of content in the pipeline. Please play the first game for the time being if lack of content is a deal breaker!



The team behind SFO in Total Warhammer I/II/III are making their own game (in a completely different genre and style), released in early access the previous week. Will it capture the same audience? Absolutely not, but at the very least I'm going to get a copy of the game to support the work they have done over the years. Support your local modders today!



Back to the Arknights mines I go, Hypergryph please gib Endfield, I will die without it

Another strategy game's mod team releases their own game, hopefully this one piques my interest more than Terra Invicta.
