Really useful tool!

It even helped me as my Surface Go didn’t want to boot on a USB drive, but accepted to boot on it through Ventoy.

It’s one of these miracle software 👍

Some of the things he said are what’s keeping me on PlayStation. You just get the game (probably update it) and you can play it without worries.

I love Linux, but I don’t think I’m ready yet to become a PC gamer unless Sony tries some really anti consumer shit like getting rid of discs while still letting you locked in their PlayStation store.

I’d be willing to pay extra to buy a retro compatibility feature, but never as a subscription.

At first I thought they were talking about compatibility with every previous PlayStation, including the third one.

Sadly we’re not even sure that’s coming for the PlayStation 6.

I’ve used an IKEA lightning cable for years and treated it really badly and it’s still in perfect condition. The official lightning cable from Apple had to be replaced every two years (it’s my employer’s phone and we upgrade every two years, stupid waste) because it was always destroyed and I had to give it back in perfect condition.

The quality is also a factor.

Yeah it would need to be straightforward and with as little settings as possible as I don’t think it’s what console gamers are looking for. Just watching at videos about games running on Steam Deck and seeing how many different settings you have to choose to get the game running is depressing for me.

About the prices, I also checked Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty and it was 5 dollars cheaper on PS Store than on Steam. It’s clearly not a small indie game though…

Great news among the bad news (speaking about discless ps5 pro). Every company should do this 👍

If physical disc drives disappear, I might leave consoles and only use a Linux gaming PC as they would lose a big advantage in my eyes.

In a way, I guess we really need Xbox to get back to shape so that Sony doesn’t become the only player in its market and doesn’t try anything stupid.

This or Valve releasing a gaming console/pc for your leaving room for approximately the price of a ps5.

But I just made a comparison online as I was trying to buy Star Wars Jedi Survivor and the game is around 80 dollars on Steam, 40 dollars on the ps store and 49 dollars for the physical version on ps5 on a swiss (my country) online retailer. So when people are saying that games are always cheaper on pc, I don’t think it’s always the case.

The Steam Deck is a really exciting project and I might buy its successor but I guess it depends on how it would perform when docked on a bigger screen as I don’t see myself playing all the time on a small one.

I’ve never been attracted by pc gaming, but the disappearance of disc drives and the high prices of PlayStation hardware these days is making me consider buying a Linux gaming PC after this generation.

I’d never thought this as I always saw so many advantages in console gaming…

But who knows, an optional disc drive on ps6 might still be proposed.

It’s useful but it got me even more lost 😅

So many different standards my god.

Even with just 8gb of Ram you can have a windows 10 vm to do the only few things you can’t on Linux. It’s gonna be really slow but if you need it once a year it’s fine.

I also discovered that these are pretty cheap and really upgradeable while looking great.

I would never buy anything from Apple new, but old Mac Pro or MacBook Pro are really tempting.

Converted my fiancée ´s 2012 MacBook Pro to Linux two years ago and it’s a great machine which shouldn’t be collecting dust.

Sometimes people underestimate the treasures they have lying around 😅

Sometimes making an iThing (iPhone) work with another iThing (Fiancée ´s Apple TV) isn’t as easy as it should. Streaming the nba app from my phone to the Apple TV was a nightmare a few years ago. Now I just use my PlayStation as the nba is hostile to Linux even in a browser.

So, taking into account the fact that Linux is free and works on almost any hardware, I can only congratulate the people making Linux possible.

I’m not really into PC gaming, but the more gaming possibilities you have on Linux, the better it’ll be👍

Another reason for me to just own games and not rent them.

I don’t mind if a movie disappears on Netflix as you just watch it from the beginning to the end, but finishing a game means a lot of time investment and moments without playing.

Never heard about it but it sounds crazy.

Loved Little Nightmares 1 and looking forward to number 2.

I don’t know how to call this kind of game but the art direction was really great.

I think an expensive ps5 pro isn’t necessarily a bad news as it’ll mean the base pro is gonna stay the main platform and games are still going to be optimized for it.

One more reason to try to ditch Google, Apple, Microsoft and the others…
