I like social media challenges, so I'm going to cross one over I did a while back.

Being suppressed for the longest time, being able to escape into a game was the only way I could really see and express myself. So, I sought out games with female characters.

So, this is my personal female character celebration challenge.

List a game for every letter of the alphabet.
The game must meet the following criteria:

  • Must have a playable female character
  • Must be a game I have personally played

Each day will bring with it a different game for each letter. Can I get the whole alphabet filled?

(EDIT: Thread is complete. If I'm boosting it. It's probably because I felt it was relevant at the time)

Anyone who is reading this plays games on their TV in the living room? What's your setup? Do you just have hooked-up with a dock or do you use Steam Link software on your TV to stream from your gaming PC or do you have a "Steam Machine" type of a dedicated device just for TV ? I wish to hear about it.

I’m hooked on #TheLastOfUsPart1 and I’m pretty sure I’m getting real close to the end.

The sad thing is I now have to go to bed to make sure I have at least some sleep before getting up to take my son to nursery and be somewhat cognitive for work.

Bank holiday weekends just aren’t long enough! 😅

Morning Folks! I've been spending some time playing that other new survival game that does not involve catching them all... . This morning I share some of my very early thoughts about the game after having played around six hours.

What games would you suggest that have LAN support these days?

While PC may be one's first thought here, I'd also be really interested in any mobile games that might leverage one's local wifi network for multiplayer.

Classics are a-okay for suggestion too, btw!

Trying something new this year to help beat the backlog. So this will be a thread of all the games i finish this year accompanied by a mini review of sorts :gamepad:

I thinks it's unnecessary to ask whether you've played Doom 😁
But on which platform you played it first? 🕹️

Started a new MagicaCSG project: a tribute to one of my all-time favorite computer games.

Who can already guess which game this will reflect? 🙂

What kind of power consumption tests would you like to see across and various distros?

Some ideas I have so far:

1: Proprietary vs : Outlook vs Thunderbird, MS Word vs @libreoffice Writer, etc. (Have more pairs to suggest?)

2: Power savings when at native 4K versus using AMD FSR.

3: Idle/Load power usage of KDE, GNOME, Xfce, MATE, etc.

4: Power usage across various form factors (Tower/Desktop PC vs Laptop vs )

YOUR IDEAS HERE 👇

Another Analogue question:

The Duo will have a CD drive, but I don't have any NEC stuff. Is it possible that FPGA cores will let you play PS1/Sega CD/Saturn stuff on it via the real disk?

Also how collectable are the games for the systems the Duo naturally supports? Thanks to ebay and COVID "Entrepreneurs" I know I have high prices ahead of me in any system but...

Hey, can anyone tell me some games where you start off in a trashed base, or even just ruins, and you've gotta fix it up?
Bonus points for sci-fi, NPCs who'll move in, and town management.

Today I'm dropping my third (~1 min). It's about a game I'm sure everyone here played at least once in a lifetime. 🤼‍♂️

What are your thoughts on Street Fighter 2 on Game Boy? 🤔

Is it a good port considering the Game Boy's hardware? 👌

Or do you know even worse ports? 👎

Street Fighter II originally was released for arcades in 1991 and has been ported to numerous consoles and platforms. But did you know that even the Game Boy Classic got his own version of the most influential fighting game ever made?The Game Boy port was released in 1995 and had to be reduced in complexity due to the limited capabilities of the handheld. From the characters side Dhalsim, E. Honda, Vega and their home stages didn't make it into the game. Because the Game Boy only had two buttons, the strength of punches and kicks has to be determined by the duration of button presses and many of the character moves had to be simplified or completely removed. The game runs at less than ten frames per second and in the stages there are no moving background elements or destructible objects. But there are also positive aspects about the Game Boy version. The game offers large, recognizable character sprites and three different game modes. When playing the game on the Super Game Boy, the health bars can be colored and there are unique borders that follow the stage that you're fighting on. By Game Boy standards the game can be seen as an excellent conversion. But the numerous downgrades only made it a bad fallback option for those not having access to a home console or computer.

Almost half of the has gone by, so I believe this is the right time to start thinking about the , and what better way of doing so than talking about the videogames you'll play during the next days?

Tell me your !

I'll be playing mostly The Purring Quest and maybe a bit of Helldivers 2, although the latest is not so appealing as it was originally.

Maybe a bit of Euro Truck Simulator 2 too!
