Those were so much fun. My girlfriend was not much of a gamer when we met, and those levels taught her the ways of the gamepad and the basics of timing you need for those games. 11 years later, we still play the music levels, especially “Castle Rock” with Ram Jam’ Black Betty.

I know it’s Ubisoft, but I’d buy a new Rayman game immediately. Well, at least of it’s like Origins and Legends.

You mean something like r/LowSodiumCyberpunk?

Well, they’ve had five years and then some. Isn’t the 700 million budget (so far) significantly bigger than what GTA V had, including marketing? I recall that game being stupid expensive at 500 million USD back then.

lol, yeah right. I wish Lemmy had that Remind-Me-Bot that Reddit has, just so I could have a good chuckle in two years’ time.

Missing No One Lives Forever (2). Those games were just fantastic.

Weird flex, but okay.

I’m not afraid to admit that I played the game a lot and that shit cost me weeks of my life. I’d usually watch MSNBC videos on the second screen while the other one was showing the clouds above LS.

The Ps5pro is overpriced, and for 200$ cheaper, you could buy a PC that will outperform it.

How would you know that?

Anivia on the other hand was only saying that for the same money or less as a Playstation 5 Pro, you can get more performance by spending your dollars on a computer instead of a console. This is correct.

I’d like to argue that you can’t get as much or more performance by spending the 700 dollars on a gaming PC. I’d be glad to be proven wrong when the first PS 5 Pro benchmarks are published, however.

What are you taking about? Your barebones configuration is a hundred dollars more than the standard PS5 years after its initial release. The PS 5 Pro (subject of your link) promises significantly more power than the original model and costs significantly more. You cannot compare that to your bare bones gaming PC. A gaming PC that promises way more bang than your 5600+6600 combo is significantly more expensive than the PS5 Pro.

Your hastily assembled list will maybe do 1080p60 in more recent games, severely limited by the GPU and its 8GB of VRAM. That was good when I got my 430 EUR Vega 56 back in 2017. Today? Not so great.

That’s a 100 dollars more than a PS5 Digital, though.

Where I live, the cheapest 3060 is 260€ (including 19% tax). A 4090 is almost two grand. That’s the equivalent of two of the upcoming PS5 Pros with a couple of games.

You’re right, a 4090 costs 2-3 consoles.

Let’s assume the 3060 costs 180 Dollars (no idea what those go for). Add 150 for a decent CPU, 40 for 16 GB of memory. Another 80 for a Mainboard for a total of 180+150+40+80=450 USD. You also need a case, a power supply and mass storage. Your math doesn’t check out, even with the humble specs those Dollars will buy you.

I’m not trying to sell you a console here, far from it. I’m just saying if you want a rig that outperforms a console, it will be in the 4-digits. A mid range GPU alone will be 400-500 nowadays.

A gaming GPU has cost as much as a console for a while now.

So a USB-C puch hole, like for smartphone cameras?

I read an article the other day that said exactly this. It’s not unique, it’s too expensive, and they did zero promo and advertising.

That’s what was initially rumoured. From what we know now, they could release (or at least be unveiled) as early as this year. Board partners are busy with RDNA 4, or so it is claimed. I’m pretty impatient after a good 7-year run with my watercooled Vega 56.

Edit: can’t find the source, maybe it’s wishful thinking.
