Does that work? I always assumed games with DRM wouldn’t work if they couldn’t authenticate to your Steam account.

Simple explanation: if you have one console full of fond childhood memories then of course that’s the one you consider to be the best!

You can still play them on your GameCube or Wii though, or take copies of the discs and play them on anything that runs Dolphin

FYI if seems you can access older versions of Steam games, it’s just a bit hacky

OK, just making sure you’re aware that the reason everyone is talking about gatcha games is because they’re the ones that you brought up!

How many of the mobile games that you specifically mentioned aren’t gatcha games?

Fingers crossed!

Didn’t it already reach the threshold last year and the government (or the civil servant in charge of rejecting every petition) closed it saying that current consumer protection laws already apply?

It also launched a year or two before the ps3 and I feel like it was significantly cheaper. Xbox Live also seemed to be huge despite the cost, probably some network effect in action. I remember Gears of War being another big name they had.

In the uk I remember the 360 being huge and nobody having a ps3, but now I’m not sure I know a single person who bought an xb1 or whatever the current one is called.

That was probably one of their most sensible naming decisions

Exactly, the cheapest device is the one you already have!

I meant bad luck that you bought a machine with loud fans generally!

FYI Lemmy already supports RSS, for instance I could add this feed to any RSS reader to follow you

Ah, bad luck

I guess they’re trying to make it more integrated and covering every source they can, but something about taking an open source project and turning it into a subscription service to play the games you already bought on the computer you already bought is… not to my taste

Is it the kind you can open up and clean the fans?

That sounds about right. I remember the 360 being huge and nobody having a ps3, but now I’m not sure I know a single person who bought an xb1 or whatever the current one is called.

I believe that’s to get the assets (i.e. the textures, character models, etc) which are still covered by copyright and so can’t be included in the decomp projects

Imagine you went through the pain of learning it to make a web front end. You want to make back end things too, but they all require knowing different languages. You’re not learning another language, learning this one was hard enough! Easier to keep using the same horrible language for everything, of course.
