Finally played through Bioshock. It only took a Steam Deck for me to be able to carve time out for it.

turns out macs included myst and a game called nanosaur.

i spent close to 100 hours in myst and never got past the basic island. nanosaur, i finished, at least twice.

The first comp at my house was MAC too. When they were subsidized by the schools.
Played "F/A-18 HORNET" demo. Took off from Wheeler AAF and proceeded too crash into the Arizona Memorial.

Was "babysitting" the grand-daughter yesterday (she was playing I was watching her play) and decided to see if I could sideload Steam Link onto our Firestick 4x Max. Worked like a champ using a PS4 controller. I played a little Saints Row 3 Remastered, and 7 of us later played about 2 hours of Jack Box.

I played 1, 2 and 3 in sequence after purchasing them on a Steam sale. I enjoyed them. Not sure why they are choosing to remake 1 rather than move the franchise forward, but that seem to be the "thing to do" these days.

Not sure whether I'll play through it again or not, even with the advancement in technology, but if you haven't played it, I definitely recommend it.

Although it’s a remake they seem to have added features introduced from DS2 such as the zero g flight. So that could change the dynamic of some of the bosses from the first game. Still I will probably get it since they did add things and change some stuff.

I wasn’t a fan of 3. I liked and hated it at the same time. 2 was the best one and 1 really had a nice mystery around the whole situation.

Intel Arc A770 Reviews are in. Not too terrible, but not that great either. All I can determine is that for being a first generation, is a solid effort with lots of room for improvement due to drivers and what not. That high idle power consumption is a little worrying. Other than that, is good that another player joins the GPU league.

Can you fit an RPi in there? (if you could find an RPi)

weederr33 · 10-06-2022, 07:06 PM

LMFAO so much for trying to cram the biggest card into a SFF case. That thing IS the case!

Put some handles on the end and you have a Monster Steam Deck.

Oh man. I vaguely remember playing Bioshock for the first time. The intro was just joy. It was such an awesome game.
