Hey gang,

I bought this TV I'm using now about a year ago. Infact, I just looked, I've had it almost 2 years. I've really liked it for the most part, but I've recently had a few issues with it, notably just starting when I built my new PC and hooked it up.

See, the PC is a 1080p desktop. So naturally, you'd expect the resolution to be 1920x1080 right?

Wrong.

When I hooked my TV up to serve as my main PC monitor (until I can afford a new dedicated PC monitor), I set the natural resolution to 1920x1080. Unfortunately, it cut the edges of the screen off both the top and the bottom of the screen. I had to use the NVIDIA CP to manually shrink the screen. I'm now running the desktop at 1842x1036.

Is there any reason this happens? I just started playing "A Hat in Time", and the only default resolution is the exact 1920x1080. When I started the game in that mode, it cut off parts of the screen. I'll attach a picture. Apologies I had to do a phone shot of the screen, but it's the only way to show it.

As you can see, it cuts the side of where it should say "Start Act" and "Exit"

I had to go into a hidden .INI file, change the resolution to my desktops, then save it as read only, so it couldn't be altered on boot.

Bizarre

Is this gonna be a problem I continue to see as I carry on PC gaming? Am I doing something wrong?

If you have any ideas, I'm all ears.

Thanks!

There was a topic on this on the GB subreddit

Hello everyone,

I've recently been digging my way through my backlog, and I've recently come to "Owlboy". I was pretty excited, because the QL on the site made this game look pretty terrific, so I was eager to jump in.

Whew. What a game. Absolute best in class aesthetics- As in the actual game looks terrific, and the music is delightful.

But fuck me, the part where you have to actually play the game is terrible. The bosses are stupid, you get one chance, with usually maybe 2/3 opportunities to make mistakes, then you have to do the ENTIRE fight again. This is especially evident on the Monkey King boss, where you have to fight several waves of enemies, which can grab hold of you and drag you into lava, which is a one hit kill. Then you have to do the entire fight from the beginning. And the worm boss which is another terrible boss.

I've seen a few different complaints online about the actual gameplay being kinda tedious and boring, but I'm slowly getting through. I can usually manage about 30-60 minutes before it gets too annoying to carry on.

Has anyone else played Owlboy? I'd love to hear your opinions!

Hey gang,

When I was at university, I first played the AA series. And I'll be honest- it blew me away. The mature writing, interesting characters, FANTASTIC music and incredible cast of villains made them an absolute DS favourite.

I recently read that on the 3DS, they re-released the first 3 games in one complete package.

I guess what I wanna know is this: do the AA games still hold up? Do you think I'll still enjoy them even though I know (mostly) what happens? I'm dying to play the final Godot case in AA3, and the Steel Samurai case in AA1.

Have any of you played these games recently? I'd love to hear from you!

Hey gang,

I'll be brief. I've never played a CRPG properly before. I played a few hours of Planescape, the first part of Baldur's Gate 2, but they never really stuck.

I've just built a new PC, and I'm looking to dive deep into either Tyranny or PoE. What would you guys recommend for someone that's enjoyed a LOT of RPG's in the past, but never this type?

Thanks!

If you guys had to pick a favourite wrestler from NJPW currently, who would it be?

For me, it's really tough. I think Okada is a match of the year factory, but I can't help but love Tanahashi's look and overall in ring presence.

Also Cody is the worst thing about wrestling. He's awful

Yes

God Hand was pretty tough. The Great Sensei fight took me a few days

He seems awesome. I know that Nakamura was meant to be "Strong style" (let's not talk about what happened to him since he joined WWE) but Shibata seems to be the living embodiment of that. Plus his look is awesome. It's so simple, but he looks sick

I haven't watched MUCH NJPW but I've recently kinda got into Shibata.

He's just great at beating the piss out of people right?
