  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic On the Switch's 4th birthday I think it has been a really good console but also a disappointment in a number of ways.. on the Nintendo Switch board Mar 4, 4:30pm

    I definitely have regrets after purchasing mine, but that's all on me and I don't want to take away from people that actually enjoy theirs. Will probably look to resell the thing since it's just been ...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic So you want an Arcade Machine?. on the General Discussion board Feb 20, 12:51pm

    I wrote something that might help builders: https://github.com/mikew/xarcade-xinputIt turns keyboard input into xinput, so your sticks will just work like a controller in any modern game / emulator.

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Valheim, anyone else played this yet?. on the Valheim board Feb 14, 12:23pm

    I'm surprised people are surprised by its reception. Take a proven concept (multiplayer survival), remove a lot of the annoyances (griefing, things going bad, not losing resources when dismantling), a...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Building a Plex server (never built before). on the General Discussion board Feb 12, 7:48am

    Another option would be a NAS. They might be a better option if all you're looking for is storage + a Plex server, and not managing a whole-ass server.

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Anyone checking out the Steam Game Festival? Any recommendations?. on the General Discussion board Feb 8, 11:01am

    little nightmares II (demo) - It is in fact more Little Nightmares. Which isn't a bad thing if you are into Limbo, Inside, et al. I also didn't realize this demo has been around for months.glitchpunk ...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Wow, the method for playing video files on PS5 is ridiculously unintuitive. on the PlayStation 5 board Feb 4, 11:59am

    The web-browser on PS5 is mostly an escape hatch for when web content is just absolutely needed. Embedded browsers often being the entrypoint for hacking consoles is probably the reasoning behind this...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic How does everyone feel about Wandavision and the "NEW" idea of a slow burn, streaming without binge. on the General Discussion board Feb 2, 12:25pm

    I'm not huge into the MCU, but am watching WandaVision. I welcome the return to TV-ass-TV with a week between episodes. Especially with this show, how mystery is core to the thing. Leaves a lot of roo...

    @therealturk: “crony who benefits from the stock market doesn’t want to see anything bad happen to it, manages to slide their sick gains into an internet post, news at 11”

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic r/wallstreetbets and Gamestonk. on the GameStop board Jan 27, 2:08pm

    It's hilarious. Sad for the people getting in late and putting in their life savings but like, that was never a smart idea.But yeah, I have no qualms with some old fogeys who have been doing nothing b...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic What controllers are people using for PC gaming these days?. on the General Discussion board Jan 20, 7:55am

    @y2ken: games from GamePass / the MS store often only support Xbox controllers. It sucks for us, but it's a sane decision from the devs.You can use ds4windows, or glosc + Steam to get the games to see...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic What controllers are people using for PC gaming these days?. on the General Discussion board Jan 16, 12:43pm

    @quasiconundrum: It's got some quirks (like figuring out the app ID, or some gamepass games still not working) but I've had decent results with GloSC.

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic What controllers are people using for PC gaming these days?. on the General Discussion board Jan 15, 1:26pm

    PS4 controller. Steam lets you map the touchpad to other things which really come in handy.

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Half-Life is a platformer, and other things people didn't tell me about the 1998 classic. on the Half-Life board Jan 13, 10:33am

    @nateandrews: That's great! I'm glad to hear it stands on its own when compared to other modern games. I just reached Xen last night on my current play through and like you said, wow! They knocked it ...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic Half-Life is a platformer, and other things people didn't tell me about the 1998 classic. on the Half-Life board Jan 9, 6:39pm

    @banefirelord: yeah, it's definitely jarring and a product of its era.@nateandrews: I'm interested in your take, cause my POV is influenced from playing so much of the original over the years. So Blac...

  • mikewhy posted a message in the forum topic What I hate about the PS5 and Xbox Series X. on the General Discussion board Jan 8, 9:25am

    Can't think of anything I used less on PS4 than themes. Tried a few, either they had terrible contrast with icons and/or text, or they had like 3 of the icons themed with the rest being from the defau...
