Lost Planet 2 also has a benchmark and may be playable. It’s my favorite in the series.

If you have any emulation-related questions feel free to hit me up ideally through replies here in case it also could help someone else

Preparing for steam nextfest this upcoming week by looking through early release demos. I’ll update here with what was enjoyable and also post in next week’s thread. Drop games as replies if you have the time and found something interesting.

Update:

SPRAWL Zero is a high-intensity fps that’s centered around constantly having to pick up (from a distance with your gravity hand) weapons/physics objects and chucking them at enemies.

ROLLA is you playing katamari except you’re a giant flesh ball that has to roll over humans to increase your flesh mass to destroy the city. Getting shot/flame-throwered/air-strikes decreases your mass until you die. Has leaderboards and seems like a good quick mindless arcade romp

Kaido Genkai is an anime-aesthetic open world racing game with realisticish physics set in a fictional Japanese countryside village. Missions vary from simple races, timed deliveries, and even some environmental retrieval missions. Seems cool- still need to play some more to better form an opinion.

BioEden is habitat/world restoration settlement sim where you’re creating environments for extinct fantasy creatures inside a biodome and terraforming/recycling resources from the dilapidated outside world to support it

Normal Golf Game is a golf game designed by someone who thought QWOP was too easy. I actually think this is phenomenal.

Burn-9: A metal gear-like where you play as the operator directing the agent where to go in the mission while taking calls from various other people during the mission. Short demo and potentially very cool.

Rivage is a first-person environmental story puzzle game set on a space station. You have to dig through documents, learn how to operate various sections of the base, and piece together what has happened to progress through the game. I’ve just unlocked room 3 of ??? before needing to hop off, but this one has me extremely intrigued so far.

Things I’m trying next (will write if I enjoy them):

• Over the Hill
• Happy Bastards
• VHOLUME’s new demo
• Ascenders: Beyond the peak
• RetroSpace
• Deep Dish Dungeon
• Grain Rot
• Sunset Summit
• AGX GP

Do it and buy a used ROG Xbox Ally X (and throw bazzite on it) at this point. Better device for less. Or pocket the money

This can’t rationally be read as anything other than a direct existential threat to any citizen of Utah

“Oh no I’m on the instance where people will push back against my bullshit”

Incredibly so yes

Check out 3DS, GameCube, and Wii emulation with side-by-side 3d toggled on in the emulator settings. Azahar would be the 3DS emulator, and Dolphin is GC + Wii (and actually all 3D games on the WiiVC as well)

3D movies are also best experienced in VR in full SBS mode.

Feel free to ask me more about this if anything catches your interest
