My favourite Christmas movie is Die Hard.
He was just testing it out to see if it worked.
The power draw is 45w handheld to 60w for docked.
The wattage range they say is more like an rtx 3050 equivalent.
I saw a video with the 8gb version, Digital Foundry used the 4gb version for their tests ages ago.
So the other videos run around 20 games on it to see the resolutions and framerates using DLSS.
I was quite suprised, the dude playing was keeping all the framerates at 60 or higher. Most switch owners would assume a 30fps cap, at least for 4k output.
All games he tested at over 60fps and using DLSS the games were either 1080p (a few) 1440p (the majority) and quite a few at 4k.
He did say he had a great cpu though.
Encouraging nonetheless, even though it was never rated as a great card for PC owners. Supposedly he said it was low energy, quiet and didn't generate much heat, so is a good choice for laptops or mobile devices.
I think the Switch 2 has 12gb of RAM so it should do well on image quality.
They even ran God of War and Horizon on it over 60fps
I just dug out the dvd for A Christmas carol the musical. Let's see how bad this looks...
Then some Mofo comes out of nowhere and obliterates me in seconds. How do I beat this guy?
Death on the Nile: Agatha Christie Hercule Quirot game has been announced.
By the same devs as Murder on the Orient Express. No one played that yet?
It was 10 USD on the eshop recently.
Frank Capra's 1946 It's a Wonderful Life.
Just bought it, GG.
Another good choice.
You would!
RIP Rickey Henderson aged 65. A baseball legend with a huge impact on the game (and even the rise of personality-driven sports players).
The press maligned him a fair bit because he was openly proud of his accomplishments (and black).
Rickey Henderson - Wikipedia
When I think of the A's, I think of the trio of Henderson, Canseco and McGuire.
Yes, it was a great time. He grew up in Oakland, so him becoming an A was especially appreciated. I have his autobiography and he was the real deal. My ex-wife was from Oakland and she would see him and Tony LaRussa in regular restaurants, or just in the street.
No news updates today, there is no news, understandably. Here's is some news, I ran 5K this morning, was hard, but easier than yesterday given the 30 degree heat.
Beach was perfect, warm water. Lost my sunglasses in the surf. Have not gamed yet today, working on next podcast. Read two copies of Retro Gamer, which is a win for me (I save up my magazines and read them on vacation).
Considered buying Sonic X Shadow Generations when I found out it include a remaster of the original Sonic Generations game (which is great).
And that's your news update.
I couldn't run 500m
There's 3 other Hercule Quirot games on Switch.
The London case and the First cases are by the same dev. Really enjoyed the First Cases and I recently bought the London case.
Then there's the ABC Murders, that's pretty good but shorter and more graphic adventure style.
They frequently sell a combination from those 3 together (in double packs) for a cheaper price.
Though it always seems to be ABC + one of the other two titles.
