They can just add an integration with Internet Archive, or let people upload the ROMs through a web interface like VLC used to (does?).

iOS now basically has regular file management. I don’t see why it can’t be handled locally.

Should I just play Fallout 4? I never actually did because of all the negative reactions at the time.

Or is there another game that's not Fallout but would scratch the Fallout-type itch?

(I have played New Vegas and its expansions multiple times at this point and I don't feel like going back would really be worthwhile lol)

Yeah. It's not a bad game imo, despite all the typical Bethesda problems which can make it quite frustrating. I especially enjoyed the survival mode (which among other things disables fast travel and saving anywhere), but I know that's not for everyone.

Emulators on iOS have been slowly trickling in over the past week, but this is the first really solid effort I’ve seen, and covers everything Nintendo up to DS (I guess no virtual boy). E:should have worded that differently. No GameCube either, and from what I understand that’s not happening until Apple allows jit compilation

No iPad version for now. It’ll run, but as an iPhone app (so small).

Been suffering from a bit of insomnia lately, and today I finally went to sleep after inundating my barely functioning mind with reviews of rpgs and rogue likes. And I dreamt of what felt like a pretty original take on the two. Much of the logic was dream nonsense, but I think some of it might be salvageable. Not sharing more, because I harbor delusions of ever working on my own game.

loving weird dream, though.

i think it's a side effect of finally getting my ADHD treated, since they more or less went away around then. i do kinda miss them from time to time, but the other side of that coin was occasionally suffering from sleep paralysis, so we'll call it net neutral

hilariously, even my sleep paralysis ended up being extremely boring. i think i had one of them "allans in the room looking at me" experiences once, but the rest of the time i'd just wake up feeling weird, send the brain signals to turn on my light, realize i didn't actually do it, and then sit there feeling irritated until everything finally cooperated

Sorry to hear that, didn’t think the two were connected.

The PS2 version of San Andreas is probably more playable on PC than the original PC version at this point. I have it on Steam and found it basically unplayable. High resolution does not suit that game at all, and there's no real controller support being so old. It also uses the old "only save when you actually go to a save location" model so being able to save state would be very useful.

I had to play the pc version with a zero damage cheat because otherwise my cars would blow up way too easily, and fights were way too hard with a controller (without the console lock on).

E: you’d still die from fall damage, because technically I think the cheat just gave you infinite armor.

Its an attempt to kludge in the superior Quick Resume to hardware/software that can't support it. In a world where Quick Resume didn't exist it'd be awesome, so instead its just a nice little feature that doesn't work as well or often as it should.


i don't think it has anything to do with quick resume, since i'm pretty sure it was shown before the console launched

Micro PC, laptop or Steam Deck (or Steam Deck clone)?

I’m also told gaming laptops get way hot because they cram in components that probably need desktop cooling. What do you guys think

Steam deck seems like a decent compromise, but I hear it gets warm with more demanding games (less of an issue with the OLED model iirc), and you're not going to be able to play some big newer games at all (like DD2).
