While I hate the videofication of everything as much as the next person. Looking at a regular website these days is even worse than YouTube with ads… Cookies bro? You want to subscribe? Can we send you browser messages?? Here are 10 ads that move the text around that you were just reading…
And or it’s search function for applications when you don’t want a permanent search bar clogging up your taskbar because you like text labels in the taskbar ;)
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (GBA). Being able to grind XP / gear to compensate for my bad platforming skills was amazing. Also this sparked my love for Metroidvania games.
It’s very carefully being shoved in by touching the waters and seeing how far they can go. The first few times there is outrage but after a while people get tired, miss that it is happening or simply don’t understand what it’s about. The changes aren’t that big but as a whole work towards something nobody wants. Same as with a lot of laws and / or social changes.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I will look into it. I just have a small stack of CD’s I can’t play so I’ll manage for now. 2008 is like brand new haha. Sony’s look great so good luck!
Was affraid of that. Affraid being a big word. I really fell for the look of this player and / or players from that era knowing age could be a problem. I can pick up a replacement laser for this unit for 36 Euro’s while the unit itself cost me around 60 Euro’s. I have put some love into it already and this might be a sunken cost fallacy thing but you can’t put a price on love ;)
Don’t know what the experiences are with swapping lasers but I’ll look around. Buying something else from this era might just result in the same or different problems anyway. I really can’t see anything modern I like. I can even hate a beautiful machine for the font used on the buttons ;)
Thanks for answering! When it skips it’s usually unplayable. This morning I’ve had a CD (as far as I could see in good condition) that did not play at all. It barely indexed and did not start. Others skip every few seconds and sometimes it even gets less after a few minutes. Also the skipping isn’t always at the same moment.
Apart from those it plays most CD’s flawlessly. It indexes really fast, also playing starts fast and so is changing to random tracks. That’s what I thought was kinda weird about it.
This… also, use your motherboards QVL when selecting your new kit.
Short answer because I’m drunk but I have to admit I’m somewhat older so I play a lot of indie titles. And one of the few triple A games that I play (BF5) forces me to boot into Windows but that is a fraction of what I play.
I use Discord, Steam and Firefox mainly and don’t do much productivity wise so probably a biased experience.
My 6750XT was automatically installed and had no work from it whatsoever.
Just switched after seeing how much of my Steam library I could play on my Deck. Just have to switch back for BF5 sometimes and I don’t miss Windows at all. Very nice experience.
Can you give an example of a new game you find backwards graphics wise?
As a European I’m so gratefull people didn’t “go for talks” on that day they stormed the beaches… sometimes you have to actually fight for your ideals and not water them down every time they are opposed…
Are the issues only with your home router / accesspoint? If the need is high you could always get a seperate accesspoint and hope that works.
Even borkier would be buying a USB-C network adapter or the dock for troubleshooting but that would get you online.

A few rounds of discgolf!
Absolutely recommend this one, even for someone that’s not deep into cardgames.!
I feel the same but I buy shit on Steam all the time. Probably because I can still play my old shit on there and I don’t risk having to buy every indie game several times because it isn’t compatible with the latest console.
Also, the pricing on console stores are ridiculous…
I might just be tired but I’m having a hard time understanding what you’re asking.
