    Digital Foundry: Microsoft Xbox One X & S supports Freesync 2 [2017-04-11]

    The HDMI encoder IC in PS4 - well, there were a couple, but I think the most common ones were a Panasonic mn864729 or mn86471a. I've never been able to find a datasheet for either of these parts, so I can't confirm they are programable. I don't even know what "programable" means in the...

    Everybody's Golf Hot Shots (PS5, PC, Switch)

    As a Hot Shots fan who doesn't own a PS5, I'm glad this is one of the Playstation IP that is going day 1 multiplatform.

    What, really, justifies future consoles?

    But they can give you a different experience. You can play Fruit Ninja or Cut The Rope with a controller, but it isn't the same.

    Intel XeSS upscaling

    I think they only remember the last 20 years. People don't remember the days pre-Xbox 360, when PC games were often inferior in weird ways to their console contemporaries. Compare Duke Nukem or Jaz Jackrabbit to NES or SNES sidescrollers and it's clear who had the better hardware. Hell, id...

    Could Dreamcast et al handle this/that game/effect? *DC tech retrospective *spawn

    We need facts here. The existence of a port of this game would not have a causal link to your mental state. Though now that you believe that a port may be in the works, the absence of it's existence might have an effect.

    Digital Foundry Article Technical Discussion [2025]

    I use Edge as my secondary monitor youtube browser, with disabled hardware acceleration. Edge is not my preferred browser, so that allows me to not have to toggle hardware acceleration for my main browser when I'm watching youtube and gaming. Beyond disabling HA, I've found Edge to be slightly...

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    Source Bolds are mine. Can we call it a successful launch now?

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    There are other factors, though. Ubisoft+ has only been available on consoles since 2023. I believe Mirage was the only Assassins Creed game to launch day 1 into the service since then, and it was marketed as a smaller title, when it was marketed at all. The Steam data may not be...

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    Physical sales appear solid. It's the best selling physical game in the UK so far this year.

    Terminator 2D: No Fate (Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo, PC)

    Nah, they were the right size. Boxes now are so small.

    Xbox Business Update Podcast | Xbox Everywhere Direction Discussion

    Maybe not even just music. If a game is licensed to play on an Xbox, then you would have to make all PCs that would play that game an Xbox. Oh, wait...

    Right. And you aren't married to it, either. I play games from Gamepass on console and PC, but I also play games from other PC storefronts. And sometimes, I find a game on Gamepass that I like and buy it somewhere else.

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    Real life is like this. What we experience, and by extension of that, our memories, are not the ground truth of reality. They are an interpretation of reality. In fact, there is plenty of research that suggests that our memories are extremely malleable, and constantly being reinterpreted by...

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    Besides the fact that the reality contains both science fiction and fantasy elements, it is 100% an interpretation. Memories are at their core, an interpretation of reality. If the technology existed that could simulate out memories, those memories would have to be further interpreted by the...

    UBIsoft in potential financial trouble

    But it's not a game out that era. It's a game about an interactive projection from a future timeline. So anachronisms should certainly exist in this simulation, because the simulation is based on the ancestral memories as they are interpreted by a modern simulation. Also you fight a minotaur...
