OG founder of CPU magazine (newsstand and digital) and GamersU.com. I’m a married dad of two and worked @Microsoft for 17 years—my posts never did. Enjoy retro/classic computing & games. Love decency. My handle on Twitter was the same.
Encountered an issue with #Balatro on the Xbox Game Pass version--there's no setting (yet) to play windowed. I can't seem to find the Reddit post that got me going: Go the Balatro > Content > Assets folder and backup conf.lua before editing it like in the screenshot. Tweak the width/height.

Late to the Balatro party and winning my first game took me way longer than I expected! My gaming PC is really maxxing out the frames on this one!

Some great ones in this thread! I've been partial to this one for a very long while, introduced to me by my buddy Chris Trumble . . .

About 20 years ago I pushed for a cover story on Jensen in #CPUmag. Don't recall "crypto" being in my vocabulary, but I knew Nvidia had a special something from the moment I played Virtua Fighter on the Diamond Monster 3D. Thus, got sort of a joyful kick out of the CES keynote last night.

Fascinating academic study of the direct absence the Commodore 64’s deep influence to video gaming.
