  1. That looks like a nice stick too, but I need a new GPU, so hopefully the Sidewinder will suffice. Playing this and looking at this flight sticks takes me back to when I ordered my Pentium 133 from Gateway back in the mid 90's. I had everything ready and waiting for the PC to arrive in the big cow boxes. Chair, check Desk, check Tie Fighter, check X-Wing, check Janes ATF, check Gravis Firebird, check
  2. This is super cool, takes the typical mundane browsing of games to new a new level. Nice job!
  3. Yep, 5760 X 1080. Didn't make sense to go with higher res monitors as my eyesight isn't that great. https://www.amazon.com/Acer-VG271-Pbmiipx-Technology-DisplayHDR400/dp/B07MDXF81K I get a full center screen and about a 1/3 on each right and left. The borders are pretty thin and it works surprisingly well for some games with this being one of them, although that wasn't my primary reason to get them.
  4. I've been watching for this one to show up for a long time and was surprised to see it require not only logging into Origin, but also that Origin is on the way out in favor of a new app. I've always found it lacking compared to more viable alternatives, which is something I've expressed on survey's I've been prompted to take. This is one that I immediately downloaded and gave a try and it's fantastic to see a modern space sim. The Tie Fighter and X-Wing series of games are some classic favorites of mine and this one seems to have a lot going for it, but I need to get out my sidewinder and tweak some settings to get the full experience. My GPU just makes the cut for this one, but it did utilize all three screens and looks pretty damn awesome!
  5. The price seems very competitive when you compare it to other SFF's on the market and most likely comes with a lot less bloatware.
  6. In "Advanced MAME Settings" in the setup wizard there is a "Don't Filter these ROMS" setting. Put the file name for Bubble Bobble in that field and save/update.
  7. You have to hand it to them, they have milked it for all it's worth https://www.techspot.com/news/96636-atari-50th-anniversary-celebration-gives-players-hands-lesson.html
  8. Links and more over at Bob's.
  9. I somewhat followed these during funding but just can’t think of enough tittles or that must have game that makes one of these a justifiable purchase for me. Am I just blatantly missing something, and what purpose does the arcade pedal serve?
  10. Dude, that comment freaked me out until I read the fine print! 😬
  11. I don't know why, but the feel, or more so the sound of this game reminds me of predator.
  12. Another nice one!
  13. Live recorded footage has certainly come a long way since the 80's, which makes a statement as to the quality of the video games titles in that era. Retrotechtacular raw video from inside a 1980's arcade
  14. I don't use GameExtender myself, but appreciate you reporting back your solution.
  15. Oh man, nice!
  16. Me too! I wish I had taken a camera into the 1982 World's Fair arcades scattered all around the park, but I was too focused on feeding the machines tokens.
  17. Everything seemed so common place back then that you would have likely have been viewed as odd for taking a camera into an arcade, but I'm glad some did anyway. https://timeline.com/golden-age-video-arcades-940a177ccb30 Some pretty cool footage put to horrid music (IMO)
  18. PC Gamer review
  19. 30 hours remaining as of this post. https://www.gog.com/en/game/genesis_alpha_one_deluxe_edition
  20. Not perfect, but makes it look so easy. https://www.tiktok.com/@fixer17d/video/7155370887926091013?is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=7155370887926091013

  21. Dead Space was a good game too, with much more dated graphics obviously. First thing that entered my mind while reading.
