Cybernetic Vermin posted:maybe so, but i'll play the original if it comes to that, very few games genuinely gain much from getting a remake. i feel like demons' souls is one of those games, it was right before they really nailed the souls formula, it'll be cool to see how they modernize it. also, it has my favourite atmosphere of those games and i really want to see if they can keep the oppressive feel on a more modern engine on that note, all i needed from ffvii remake was to see HD cloud in a dress and it surprised me at how well they captured a lot of the charm of the original. re2 remake was also cool. i'm not a fan of remasters, but i'm pretty positive on remakes atm

they shut off the servers for the original so you can't play it as-was any more

lol. that's definitely not something i have said. i have said that yosposters are loving terrible with computers and cause most of their own problems, but no, windows is janky as poo poo what relevance that has to multi-gig patches preventing you from just sitting down and playing a game on a modern console, i don't know. i do know that is a thing though

what it wasn't good at was running game engines, especially game engines that were developed for more than one system. at least with everyone building essentially custom PCs, cross platform games won't be quite so hamstrung by weird-rear end architectures

infernal machines posted:what the christ are you loving doing? this: https://tarantulo.lt/how-to/how-to-install-drivers-for-xbox-360-chinese-wireless-receiver/ the latest build of windows broke support for knock off 360 wireless receivers the fix is: - edit a hardware ID in the (official, downloaded from microsoft) inf - turn off requiring drivers to be signed - install the edited driver - turn requiring drivers to be signed to install back on it's a pain in the hoop, and definitely counts as janitoring, but as far as i can see not a security risk or anything

yeah, that's fine as long as you're re-enabling driver signature enforcement, but good grief that's some bullshit for a knock-off gamepad. reminds me of the poo poo you used to have to pull to get ps3 controllers working in windows. ultimately the best solution was "buy a controller that's natively supported in windows"

the controllers are official 360 wireless controllers, still work fine, and are officially supported the jank is in the knock off wireless receiver. if i could have bought an official one i would, but they're like hen's teeth i've got an 8bit-do snes style controller that's fine, but also a knock off dual shock 3, and gently caress all the poo poo you need to do for that to maybe work

the problem with using game controllers on PC is that they're console devices and therefore inherently bad driving games are the only games that makes sense to play with a controller anyway
