Comentario de viejo: No lo sabíamos entonces, pero Sony y Sega hicieron mucho daño en los 90 intentando ser más mayores y "cool" y decidiendo lo del "público objetivo" en su publicidad.
Nintendo tiene muchas movidas, pero lo de "las mujeres también gastan" lo tenían claro aún antes de la DS.

W/O CRT filtering, if you're a heathen with bad taste.
Should be easy to make toggleable on modern consoles.
Bad quality CRT filtering in emu releases are ALSO a head scratcher.

My "tasteful upres" preset on emulation, FWIW.
PSX games can look SO stylish and smooth. I blame press and influencers bragging about "in 4K" and "fixing" render features. People don't have buzzwords for "authentic looking" and teams working on these don't focus on that as a value as a result.

I guess it'd be closer to it defaulting to the overhead cam from 1 and 2?
I mean, not the best analogy, but it does fit.

It helps to read the actual quote and not the mangled ragebait version that gets posted in the headline and social media.

Look at this shot of the PC version with all the water deformation going on. What's happening to the speedboat's reflection there? It's artifacty but not modern SSR artifacty.

Cielo santo el regate. Te vas a romper un tobilo.
Total, que la cita es la cita y lo que dice es que va a hacer lo que no hizo.
Y mientras aquí la supuesta izquierda dándose golpes a sí misma con la que está cayendo. Como de costumbre.

Estas dos tablas de la encuesta de hoy de El País suponen un fracaso monumental del espacio a la izquierda del PSOE.
Eso sí, da confianza tener la seguridad de que veremos cero autocrítica y mucha recriminación entre ellos. Al menos no hay sorpresas en este proceso.

In fairness, they were very late SNES releases. 95 and 96. People were more concerned with the fighting games at that point. Makes sense that they'd be more successful on ZSNES than SNES.
Still, that's some gorgeous pixel art. Pulling from the arcade but with its own flavor. Love to see it homaged.

That was always part of the appeal of the Persona Q games and the Sin Megami Tensei dungeon crawlers in general. They get to have fun with locales.
It's also why I got into the 1986 Zombie despite finding it in the early 90s for the first time and having no clue how to play it.

Inside y Control si hubiesen puesto la escala de todo al 50%.

Es que los juegos y los espacios liminales se llevan bien.
Me creo que el "Board" the Control y el de Severance sean ideas independientes, pero también que no.

See, my favorite handheld implementation for that is obviously the GPD Win 4. Not only is the deployable controller a "duh" moment, but their clever optical nub works better than any touchpad (not just Valve's) as a mouse replacement.
You can't make this for the price of a Deck, though.

This is the one bit that raises an eyebrow for me. I'd get it if it was a technical limitation, but the exception suggests it's not. My prototype for season passes is fighting games, where I don't see the need to have one character out to preorder the bundle if you are keeping up seasonally.

I saw this chart in a TLDR piece about Giorgia Meloni and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.

"Cheekily" is presumably in reference to both of their Twitter comments about it being jokes.
To IGN's credit, they've updated the headline regardless, but I struggle to be mad about the original, either.

Well, at least they are consistent.
In the towns they are covering here, the far right did win, but just narrowly, by under a percentage point. Meanwhile, it seems the left is the biggest party by quite the margin nationwide.
They seem to be just trying to manifest a new Reich for some reason.

Why are the dates obscured? Looking at the full chart it seems to show that the power increase has been going at the same rate since 2008, way before generative AI was a product. Right concern, wrong reasons?

Oh, no, it was a thing. Searchable, too. I think people don't remember because it was so easy to opt out, but it was a thing and it was *bad*.

I mean, if that's a metric, so did the local cannery in my town.
Not to say that power consumption isn't a concern, but it's healthy to get some context.
The interview they're sourcing for the consumption numbers is way more nuanced than the article.
