Oh, terrific.

Let’s just make every single functionality in cars be a separate paid subscription service.

Switch to a PAYG account. Continue to use Always Free resources. Still pay nothing. And don’t get your account yoinked for underutilization anymore.

That’s worked for me so far, for almost a year now. (knock on wood)

Callisto Protocol is one of the free October PSPlus games.

One would think they’d get some cash out of that (???)

If I recall, the only thing not dubbed was non-boss-enemy callouts around battles.

Have they actually said this game and Infinite Wealth would have English dubs?

The excellent dub in LaD is what finally got me into the series.

Dub > Sub. Fight me, Street Hooligans.

Web search is rapidly getting worse & worse, unfortunately. Thanks, AI & SEO-chasers…

v:dw

I’m maybe 2/3 through.

The voice acting is extremely excellent. It’s also not anime, if that’s what you’re in it for. So, no awkward hyperventilating between sentences. Female characters don’t all sound like screeching children. And intonation is what an actual human would use in actual speech.

The side quests in the game are definitely pretty awful, though.

A Nintendo handheld console with similar capabilities as current gen non handheld competition?

Last year Google had a thing for past customers where if someone used your code when they bought a Pixel, both you and they got a $100 voucher.

Those expire on the last day of September.

Hey Google… I see you releasing this phone 4 days after the expiration date of the $100 Play Store vouchers that many of us have stashed away.

I used to get excited by new Android versions. But now I barely notice the difference when a new one drops.

Yikes. It doesn’t look like a game where I’d have to bump all the way down to the Low preset to get 60fps at 1080p on my 3070. Yet, here we are.

Ironically, I guess I’m waiting for AMD to save the day with FSR3. Nvidia just wants us to pay them for frame gen on their dud RTX4000 cards.

If you’re playing games, I’d actually recommend sticking to 640x480 if at all possible, and trying to increase the font size in any UIs you have running so they’re readable.

Most game consoles ran at odd resolutions that don’t divide evenly into 320x240, so you get weird scaling issues. I’ve had best results running at 640x480; setting a custom viewport in Retroarch & manually adjusting the x & y resolutions to fit the screen for each system; and then applying the sharp-bilinear-2x-prescale shader to every system.

If you’re in the US, I’d stick to NTSC 60fps. If you’re elsewhere like Europe, you’ll likely use PAL 50fps.

It’s likely that your HDMI adapter is probably converting whatever signal you pump into it to 480i, so I’d just pick whatever looks best between progressive and interlaced.

Wonder if we’ll ever see that fixed Saints Row 2…

If you watch it for awhile, I believe it slightly moves the display once a minute or so to prevent burn-in. I think it might also turn off the display in your pocket. So really, most of the time it’s on is while you’re sleeping; and that’s at super-low brightness.

I’ve always used it all the way back to my OG Pixel XL, and never had burn-in.

Honestly, that looks about right for 800x600 content on a CRT TV.

Try bumping it down at least to 640x480. You may even need to go all the way down to 320x240. Really.

This was life in the 80s & 90s.

One of the biggest reasons I stopped playing Overwatch on PlayStation a few years ago.

Smurfing is out of control there (unlimited free accounts), and most matches down where I lived in Gold were determined by which team had more Masters players on their team.

I think we’re gonna need a picture.

Sounds like you may not be particularly familiar with CRT TVs, which had much lower fidelity than VGA monitors of the era.

640x480 resolution is more along the lines of a target resolution you’d be aiming for. And even that is pushing the limits. You aren’t going to be seeing individual pixels unless you go down to 320x240, and even that’s with some squinting and imagination.

What you’re describing may be completely normal for a CRT TV. Particularly one using composite cables (yellow/red/white) at any point in the chain.

Rockstar has yoinked music from GTA games in patches, so it’s not unheard of.

Worst case on Hi-fi Rush, they fall back on the royalty free “streamer mode” soundtrack that’s already in the game.
