First off, I've complete my full set of PSVR games. I'll closely monitor publishers but I think the console is dead given that the PSVR2 is about to hit 1 year anniversary, and the fact that you can't easily port PSVR games to any other VR headset. PSVR2 are much easier to port to or port from. This is why I think PSVR will die a quick death. So with that onto PSVR2 collecting! I got some custom protective lenses for the PSVR2 headset and two more games.. Some Switch pick ups... Some PS4 pickups Some PS3 games, PS2 and PSVita pickups. Big pickup was Time Crisis 4 with the sensor bar. I now have two guns and the sensor bar. Time for some co-op gaming. Lastly I got a hardcover copy of the complete Horizon Zero Dawn graphic novel collection

7 games were left, 7 games were collected!!!! Here is the last game for PSVR. It was released on November 16, 2023

I know when Departments of Transportation (DOTs) use eminent domain to buy someone's property/business, they have to pay for the land/building, pay for the expense to find a new location to move, and also pay for the move. Basically do everything possible to do the right thing to make sure no extra expense is occurred from being forced to move. Not to say that I agree with eminent domain use for private business to get what they want.

You'll find your fellow nerds in the Homebrew section. Fun fact, VGS helps get some homebrewer's games published with Mega Cat Studios. Still a new thing but we are proud and excited about it.

I saw shit like this in Iraq.....they didn't have many bridges going over top roads once you left the major city like Baghdad. Bridges only cross streams.

I'm down with it...... Cincy did it

I think that bottom picture is actually Spring. And yes, Spring is shit.

Nintendo cares about it's profits because it's the only thing they do. But Xbox and Sony stockholders don't care about the BILLIONS of dollars in profits because other sectors of company make money too???? You bet your ass if Xbox didn't make any profit they'd pull the plug on it so fucking fast due to shareholders not wanting to LOSE money to a sector of the business that doesn't make them money. Please tell me what publicly traded company is fine with a sector of the company not making a profit and just lets it be. Companies will ditch sectors because they DON'T make a big enough profit let alone go in the red. I think you way under estimate how bad shareholders are with their investments making a profit consistently and with a large rate of return. Source Also you'll see they devote a similar amount of space for AI as they do Gaming in their last annual report for investors. Seems like Microsoft thinks their investors will care about their gaming sector. Now when it come to just data storing and cloud services you can see that is where their biggest attention is based on how much they cover it over multiple sections. https://www.microsoft.com/investor/reports/ar22/index.html

PS3 was released when I was in college.... My back log is SUPER old too as I got some games I pre-ordered and never played from then

I makes me so happy that a site "owned" by a Canadian has a turkey theme for November. But it may be very cool to have some international themes represented. Not trying to be Google with a new logo for every day. But if you got some suggestions I think it's worth while suggesting them.

@T-Pac is the online version of Keanu Reeves Extremely talented, always positive, and a delight to be around.

Given that video games are relatively new medium I have no problem saying it is generally improving with time. I'm not saying older games are dog shit, but to make improvements is human nature. Also what is valued in art will change with time too because human culture isn't stagnant. I put story telling and immersion as very high tiered qualities in games. So for my perspective this is a no brainer that video games get better with time in general. And don't think immersion is a fancy word for graphics. I value the same thing in my books I read and too. In fact I generally prefer books without any visual artwork so I can draw my own image. Or I should say I let the author provide the details that I then draw in my mind. What do you value in video games that has peaked? I mean since games aren't improving you are implying that they have peaked.

Not concerned because Bengals put Buffalo back a game so no change Dolphin's division standing. You're welcome

I hope you've recapped that beauty. Would hate if you had issues from know problem that can be avoided without too much effort.

Looks like you are from Ohio. What are your thoughts of Skyline Chili. I will be judging your answer

Surprised there wasn't an "Under..." games or a video game for

And Quest 3 runs on a Snapdragon so it's just a cellphone. A modern electronic device is often a combination of hardware AND software.

https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/worst-nfl-record-in-the-2010s OK, I remember the 90's and we were the worst that decade. 2000's weren't that great either but Cleveland had it worst. So yeah, Ohio needs that Super Bowl W. Bengals will win it for all of Ohio

Bengals are forever an underdog until they win the Super Bowl. And when they DID go to the Super Bowl everyone had called them an underdog ever since their first playoff win that post season. When you have been a "losing" team for as long as the Bengals have been, it's hard to not feel like an underdog. Our record so far is 4-3, I'd say that is an underdog team to be going after a Super Bowl ring. I think people forget where were the worst team of the decade not too long ago.

Portable PC is still a PC. And no, Xbox and PS are not PCs. Just because a console has SOME games ported to PC doesn't mean they are PCs. Sony is porting games to PC because they realized there is a MASS market they can tap into without really damaging their console base sales. You calling a PS5 just a PC is as ignorant as our parents growing up were in calling every console under the sun a "Nintendo". SNES and Genesis are similar but they are not the same. If consoles are just PCs then they will stop making hardware and just make software like SEGA.

Steam Deck is just a portable PC just like ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, or etc. Steam Deck may be the first but the market already has multiple alternatives because it's just a portable PC. I just watched a video of a gaming store in Japan where there were multiple brands of portable PC gaming devices just like the Steam Deck because it's so easy to mimic it.

I'll list PC when they do physical releases of games....

I love the comfort of the latest controller design. I like how a lot of my games are digital so it's easy to see what is games I have to play without getting off my ass. I also love the graphics of modern games. Even the retro styled games are still better looking I think. Art/media just gets better in general with time so go figure I love the new stuff. Not to say old stuff doesn't have any value. But I think it's foolish to say there is nothing good about modern gaming.

Came across this old drawing from @T-Pac and made me question how many of us Sages are "modern" gamers. Also as an open question, what about modern consoles do you like compared to "retro" consoles.
