Solid line up.
I knew TDU SC eventually come on PS Plus. Glad I cancelled preorder for Astro or instead.
I heard TDU SC was a mess at launch. Did it improve? I'm going to give it a try
This is unrelated to the actual post, but can anyone tell me what happened to this site? It used to be the best place to get news, but now it seems like barely any big news comes through, there's little discussion, and it seems to be dying overall. I know there was awhile where I couldn't access the site, but that's been taken care of for a long time. What happened?
There are a lot of technical issues and it doesn't seem there are many people left who approve stories, so they take a long time to get approved, if they get approved at all.
Money. It was sold to someone who wanted to maximize the ad revenue while investing nothing into the actual site. Money killed it.
I'll add to what Nyxus and Eonjay said
Another reason is trolls are allowed to run rampant. So the few times discussions might happen, they get derailed fast.
There's also the fact that they're more strict on what gets approved now compared to what they were back in the day.
Site’s been slowly turning to garbage over the past 5 years. It’s currently almost unusable. Full of utter shit adverts covering everything. You cant even access your profile notifications and it’s been like that for what must be over a year now. It really has become an amateur shit show here.
True, I tried opening "my submission" and it opened someone else's list of submissions...
An endless amount of rude trolls, along with terrible and inconsistent moderation. I once got banned for saying S***, but then there are other people who can drop F-bombs and not get banned. Mods also punish the wrong people often, just stupidity all around. I stopped submitting stories and I rarely comment these days due to the lack of proper moderation.
Always thought this was just a Sony pony troll site lol. But it used to be nuts. I used to check this site every day same as siliconera. I do still check here and there but yeah ain’t what it used to be
Love the article description!
Also someone had the foresight to put Neva on there... and monter hunter Stories. Solid additions all around.
They had a strong classic library last year, I don't hope they plan to double down on disney releases again this year, like they've done before.
From Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Batman: Arkham City to breakout hit Dispatch and new Marvel Cosmic Invasion, these are 10 of the best superhero games you can play today.
YouTube tech analysis channel ElAnalistaDeBits has made a comparison video, showing off Marvel's Spider-Man 2 running on Steam Deck, ROG Xbox Ally X, and PS5 (performance mode)
A noticeable improvement over the Steam Deck, but those reflections are hilarious. You're definitely paying for better quality with that hefty price tag. I do like that density isn't really affected by quality, though.
For the performance they were going for, increasing the reflections would not have been viable. The deck and rog can certainly be taken further into the quality mode, but obviously performance takes a huge hit..... but it does look good on a little screen.
Yes, it runs somehow in low graphic resolution and with very limited effects. $1000 for this quality?
Looks impressive for a handheld that lets you play anywhere other than a living room or a desk.
I think this is a perfect release schedule (about 12-15 months) from PS to PC. It helps keeps PS hardware relevant while still enjoying sales from the PC-only fanbase.
"The official system requirements for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 are yet to be revealed, but here is what is generally expected for them to be"
So this article is fake news?
"Requires 3rd-Party Account: PlayStation Network (Supports Linking to Steam Account)" Actually you don't need that shit on PC 🏴☠️😂
Saved you a click.
Expected System Requirements
The official system requirements for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 are yet to be revealed, but here is what is generally expected for them to be:
Minimum:
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X / Intel Core i5-8600K
RAM: 8GB
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 / Nvidia GeForce RTX 1060 (6GB VRAM)
Storage: 75GB SSD required
Recommended:
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X / Intel Core i7-12700
RAM: 16GB
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 (8GB VRAM)
Storage: 75GB SSD required
Those numbers are insane. A Ryzen 7 5800x is too much for this type of game. Even the Rx 6800 is also a bit much. That GPU rivals the compute power of the PS5 Pro. Not many gamers on PC will be able to meet the recommended requirements. Steam deck and other handheld gamers are of luck.
Hopefully the official numbers will be more reasonable.
I expect it to be around the specs of the recently released God of War Ragnarok. See below
