Word on the street is he already kidnapped 200 people for his PSYCHOTIC games

Not surprising considering there’s little to no competition in that price range. Pretty much every not-bad PC headset is $1000+, and heavy hitters like Valve Index haven’t had a hardware refresh in years.

Whew, I was getting worried we were one day into 2024 and nobody said this yet.

As for price and features I think it will be comparable in price to the PS5 and Series X so around the £450 point.

I doubt it actually. One of the key selling points of the Switch is the console being cheaper than competition, the Switch going for $300 and Switch Lite going for $200. I think it’ll stay the same price or at most be $350 with a general hardware upgrade.

Also betting on a new 3D mario game being the launch title. I would be surprised if there also isn’t DLC or an enhanced edition of Tears of the Kingdom also there.

From Xbox’s side we’ll hear more about their new 1st party titles from all those studios they acquired but I don’t expect many of them to release this year. Their one popular title will probably be Avowed, which I’m expecting to be basically Skyrim 1.5, janky combat included.

Other random predictions:

• Final Fantasy 16 comes to PC (as an Epic exclusive as usual)

• Hollow Knight Silksong releases late 2024

• Elden Ring DLC releases within a few months and is a banger

• Windows game emulation on Android phones and ARM laptops will actually get really good

• Valheim will still only release 1-2 major updates within the year

• Many studios will attempt gimmicky AI-enhanced video games then give up when people quickly get over it

• Netflix will combine or collaborate with Xbox Game Pass in some way

• Lots of larger sized indie games will release on the Godot Engine instead of Unity.

The PlayStation 3 baby commercial was also something else. Playstation has had some real weird marketing moments.

There was also one string of Tweets in which many seniors from the Overwatch crew blamed Kotick for sabotaging the franchise and ruining Overwatch 2 with terrible decisions from higher up getting in the way of development. I really felt that one since I used to be an OW fan.

Everyone knew something was off when the game director which was extremely passionate (Jeff Kaplan) just straight up left the team after OW2 was announced. Really sucks, but at least we got some context.

Despite looking childish, Snakebird is actually a really good puzzle game that gets very difficult. I played it on my phone and would recommend picking it up.

Were they though? After they fixed the drivers and used proper transition layers for directX they’re really decent entry-level cards.

I know reading is hard but you realize this quote was reason #5 of the many reasons listed… I’m not going to copy-paste the article, it’s all relevant info.

Honestly you should just stick to Fedora.

Why?

Seems like a cool project, but with such weak specs what can one actually do with this?

Dall-E 3 is the easiest to use and usually understand prompts the best. You can use it for free via Bing Image Editor.

All I know about it is that the soundtrack is absolutely banging

Also it’s a decade old so it should be on the left side really

People probably said the same thing when Apple dropped PowerPC for x86, there’s going to be an awkward transition period but when it becomes a standard you’ll feel differently.

Who said anything about Linux becoming Windows?

Dunno, but I suppose you can use piped: https://piped.video/watch?v=98kFh3JpIXk

But for real though, they had to know that having telemetry be on by default wasn’t going to look good for the open source community.
