Jason Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 But seriously I guess you don't need a cart when your entire business model is using Tencent money to give away games for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 The store deals are actually pretty nuts this year. Death’s Door for $5. Spiritfarer for $5. Inscryption for $6. Hades for $6. Sable for $7. Jedi Fallen Order Deluxe for $7.50. Disco Elysium for $8. Axiom Verge 2 for $8. Forgotten City for $9. THPS1-2 for $10. Death Stranding for $11. Immortals for $14. Horizon for $15. Kena for $20. Guardians for $28. And a lot more… I’ll wait for giveaways and the Steam sale, but I could see myself picking up something here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I canceled my original order after reading FF7RPC is a bust and it kept the coupon somehow and locked me out of the sale. Luckily I found I could click “coupon details” at check out which showed me that order and let me release it. Weird. Guess all this cart stuff is new. Anyway I nabbed Mafia DE, Crysis 2 Remastered, Alan Wake Remastered, Tony Hawk 1+2, and Sonic Colors Ultimate for $60, pretty happy with that deal. Also just realized all 5 games I picked are remasters but that makes sense since I wait more on remasters if I already played the original, though I’ve never played Mafia or Colors. I now own THPS on ps5, switch, and pc! I just got it for $20 on switch too, already 100%’d it on ps5, can always use an excuse to do it again.

Xbob42 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 FF7 Remake on PC seems fine to me. Seems to get a little bit of stutter every once in a while during rapid scene transitions, which kind of sucks, but gameplay has been a buttery smooth 4k/120 for me at max settings. Dunno what the fuck was going on with Digital Foundry's PC where they couldn't get it to hold 60, but I'd be the first bitching at the gates about a shitty port. Also, the game feels tremendously better to play at 120 FPS. I can actually track everything happening in a battle effortlessly now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that frame monitors aren’t detecting fps correctly and it’s actually all over the place, it’s also using drs so likely scaling below 4k for the “120”. Def gonna wait for patches or just play on ps5 60fps mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
