Have they fixed the broken GTA Remasters yet?

I want to say yes but I’m not entirely sure. LOL

I'd almost risk it. But the download size I am wary of.

I bought a Playstation Classic, for $80 USD including shipping. So looking forward to hacking that next weekend.

I watched Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade last night. Two thoughts:

- Everytime Sean Connery refers to his son as "Junior" All I could think of was Scrooge McDuck.

- Naughty Dog needs to send Steven Speilberg a million dollar check and a thank you note every year for ripping him off directly for the Uncharted series and him not suing them.

Not a bad deal. I remember after the initial wave of disappointment hit on the PS Classic it plummeted to his low as $35 in some places. Figures it would bounce back after some time. But for a controller, raspberry pi, and shell you'd be paying over 100, so you done good.

Once you have it cracked, you should take a look at some of the fan translated PS1 games out there. Most of them are skippable (which is pretty much why they never got a translation in the first place), but there's a couple out there that are pretty great or at least definitely worth experiencing.

One of kojima's early games, Policenauts, is fully translated and most adventure game fans seem to like it a lot. There's also a game called LSD: Dream Simulator that is one of the stranger games you'll come across, but worth experimenting with for 20 minutes if nothing else.

Naughty Dog's entire existence has been to rip off other's ideas. Mortal Kombat, Indiana Jones, Super Mario, Walking Dead. It works for them. 👍

I'm on the final open world area of Off the road Unleashed.

Nearing the end and I've enjoyed it so much I'm looking at alternative unconventional racers. There's a game called Overpass that I need to read more on.

Off the road Unleashed has been a permanent fixture on my switch all week playing for hours each day.

When it's on sale you guys should consider getting it. There's a demo that's decent.

Overall I have very few complaints: needs more music tracks, could use some humans and voice acting to add to the atmosphere. Could add some more variety to the missions.

Considering the credits has like 5 developers it's pretty great what they've made here.

Latest in 3D surround sound. PS5 uses a similar Tempest audio. Stereo sound is just fine for me.

I gave up on blasting surround sound years ago. Too much faff.

I've been playing Baldur's Gate 1 Enchanced Edition on PC. Like most D&D CRPGs, I have no idea what I'm doing and will likely end in disaster soon, but it's fun anyway.

So I kinda gave up on anime after Crunchyroll and Funimations apps on amazon  became squiffy.

Looking to get back into it, but what's happened after Sony bought them? They haven't merged into one service?

Crunchy doesn't seem to be offering free with ads these days? All my watch list is premium now.

I haven't tried Funimation but at least the episode lists don't have PREMIUM plastered all over it.

Even before, they had a tenancy to only show a few episodes free before suddenly saying premium only.

Me either.

I'm either caught in an endless web of Kdramas,  or Korean Running Man. I could watch Running Man all day everyday.

So I tried one of these free to play hidden object games on android.

Ugh,horrible. They put a timer on scenes and make you restart from scratch if you fail. You have a couple of hints, once they're  gone the game wants extortionate money for more hints (microtransactions)

Tried Lost in Play demo on android, really delightful, it's a point and click game with a magical score and awesome animated visuals. Will get it on switch when it's cheaper.

Also downloaded Life is strange and the Octopath traveller prequel on the Play store. Interested in seeing how they try to cash.

Taking a lot to not jump at BG3 right now, I'm holding off for starfield. But man it looks like BG3 is truly special, I'll play it in December.

My new PC is doing great, got to try out TLOU part 1 on it, looks stunning. Still don't get the point of this remaster as the gameplay is so behind part 2 but at least it looks nice.

I managed to sneak in some PSVR time and beat that horizon game I paid full price for... bad mistake, review up soon. Such a waste of potential cause production value wise there is no VR game as impressive outside of HL Alyx.

What's BG3?

Anyhow,I was hoping some Steam games would work on a droid. But the only way is to use Steam link so it's pointless.

The Play store storefront, seems to only display a handful of games.
