yeah, I'm limiting their screen time since young

luckily most modern day devices comes with family control settings to control the screen time

but unfortunately many parents nowadays never do that, and we can see many zombie kids being nannied by phones and tablets when going out

worst I've seen is a father lassoing/guiding his 5/6 yo son burying his face in a phone while walking in mall, bump into them few hours later, still the same shit
and some parents blasting baby shark on full volume on a ipad attached to the pram and in restaurant, till the point pissing me off and walk over to tell them "nicely" to reduce the volume

earth ShenRong only grant 1 wish

we can't space travel yet, so Namek's ShenRong's 3 wishes is out of reach

Namek already destroyed by Freeza, remember?

both, depending on games

https://majornelson.com/fpsboost/

quite a few games there, sniper elite 4 is one
it was unplayable for me on X1S due to piss poor fps, now it's buttery smooth with FPS Boost

come to think of it, backward compatibility is nothing if it doesn't improve on the next gen consoles, MS did a dang good job in implementing the FPS Boost and AutoHDR

while the other side is still begging for their rumored so called 123 backward compatibility
Hell! i buy the next gen console bcos I wan to game next gen, not to play back the old games in 30fps
There's no way I'm gonna play Bloodborne on PS5 with the sub 30 fps

DOAX1 & 2

When D2 was removed from Gamepads I have suspect something is afoot already, as keeping D2 on Gamepass has more pros than cons to Bungie

IMO Sony bought Bungie as a desperate move at higher price, as a show of strength to MS. If MS didn't bought Activision, Sony won't rush in to buy Bungie at this high price which imo Bungie doesn't worth that much.

Completed Halo 2, 3, 4 & ODST of Master Chief Collection on EASY during this 1 week break
IMO, this is one of the most relaxing gaming session I've ever had for a long long time, no long check list to check, no collect N amount of random stuffs to progress, no fetch this junk from A to B...
just plain dumb shoot and shoot and shoot and enjoying the story
Multiplayer section there? that's the part I aint touching

Halo List Progress:
1- 4, ODST completed, just started Reach
Halo Backlog:
5 & Infinite, Halo Wars 1 & 2, Spartan Assault
few more weeks to go

Witcher 3: collected all the witcher gear set, cleared all the ? on all maps and all quests, on the easiest setting
I'm too old to challenge any games on their highest difficulty already

but when come to Zelda BOTW, all those undiscovered/unsolved shrines are bugging me, i did burned out on those, as well as collecting those stupid seeds
completionist in me forced me to stop at the final dungeon, and it's has been sitting there for few years till now
and if I were to continue the game, I wouldn't know how to play and where am I supposed to go already, and will have to start from beginning, and that added to the cause of it still being uncomplete

similar things happened to HZD as well, I'm nearing the end already, collected & upgraded tonnes of gears, then one day I just stare at the map of side quests & unexplored areas and decided to call it a quit

used to love farcry series as well, explored and completed everything on the map, but Farcry 5 now is still collecting digital dust, haven't even got motivation or mood to load it up yet

you're still younger than me bro... welcome to middle life and an early happy birthday

go do any physical stuffs you like while you still got the energy and health, dun wait until 40s like me then gg already

Another World, took us weeks to complete that "short" game last time, but now can complete it with one sitting without guides, probably still got some left over memories from 30 years back on what to do
last time got scared shitless with Alone in the Dark even with our puny internal PC speaker, that's the real grand daddy of survival horror genre!

mine was an AMD Am386DX-40, lasted me quite a while, basically can run almost any games we threw at it, just need to tweak config.sys and autoexec.bat
it even survived until Win95 era and played Wing Commanders after adding soundcards and a CD-ROM drive
imagine installing Win95 from diskettes!

3.1 was pretty smooth, no issue, also played with 3.11 for Workgroup
first installation of Win95 was from a pile of 3.5" floppy diskettes, can't remember how many are there, but it's a lot and took me few hours overnight just to install it
and immediately gave me the famous blue screen on boot
when it's finally working, booting up takes forever, more than 15mins IINM, and everything is slow as snail, basically it's unusable for all that time wasted on it

nowadays I just laugh at those "Can it run Crysis" comments, been there done that long before them

Bought 2 games from Argentina Store last night using Wise debit card with AR Peso deposited in my Wise account.
Both transaction gone thru without a hitch, whereas last time when using my BP card, only the first game can go thru, then second game will be unsuccessful
since no other games to buy, so I stopped at 2 games, lets see if I can buy with the Wise card again in the next sales

very straight forward, similar to BP card

but my physical card is MIA in the post, supposed to mail to be in Dec for FOC, till now still haven't see anything

yup, physical card is optional, since last time they got offer it's FOC so might as well grab it, IINM now physical card is chargeable

dont need VPN, but the success rate is a hit & miss sometimes

can try your luck, if it's rejected today then it will be flagged for few weeks, usually I'll wait 2 to 3 weeks then try again

there was a discord I joined for LYN D2 clan, but it's kinda inactive already last time when I left, maybe it will heat up again with the witch queen release, but most players are PC based, you can go look see under D2 PC game forum section
D2 I also quit already, need too much time commitment, too much grinding for me, past few seasons kinda wasted, played a while completing the season opening quests only, the rest just sitting idle there
didn't even complete any of the new dungeons or raids for a long long time

for Witch Queen, IINM you just need to buy the Witch Queen expansion to play it, as New Light is basically free to play, you'll just missed out some of the contents from the previous expansion like Beyond Light

well, their yearly expansion is priced like that one, basically price of a new game, that's how Bungie profits from GaaS model, and now Sony wants a piece of that cake also

just wait a month or two, generally there will be a much better discount once it's halfway thru the season

after the painful 60+Gb patch, C2077 finally is upgraded automatically with the X|S logo over the weekend
unlike the blue camp, which involved lots of tears & blood just for the upgrades

haven't tested it tho, still busy completing Halo saga, now finally at Halo Infinity

maybe I'm having an amnesia liao from old age, XS logo could be there for all this while
Did the library cover changed as well after the update?
