    I use back buttons, when available, for triggers (that don't need analog input). I have RSI issues with my hands, and trigger pulls in FPS or action games are the most aggravating. I wish the Dualsense had a back button attachment like the PS4.

    See, I told y'all. Make sure you pre-order not at GameStop!

    Steam+ Deals Mega Thread (All PC Gaming Deals)

    Valve doesn't set pricing on Steam , except for the games they publish. So it's up to whoever the publisher is to determine. I would imagine the floor might rise with the ceiling, no doubt.

    Limited Run Games Thread - We only promise our NES games will work, not your console

    I already stated above. Using B stock when clients expect A stock is bad. Without knowing how those components were damaged or how they were stored, their service life is likely degraded. I don't see an issue with PCB or connections, as you stated, but who knows what the quality is like in...

    Limited Run Games Thread - We only promise our NES games will work, not your console

    I reviewed PCB specs yesterday. For the job that pays me, not just poking at whatever this board has on it. (I don't do consumer electronics) So folks can decide if I know what's a bad practice or not. LRG's history and executive's attitudes suggests they go lowest cost solution regardless of...

    Xbox Deals and Discussion

    We're in uncharted waters in terms of consumer debt volumes. We're sneaking up on a very bad economy crisis since the entire market is built on leveraged positions now, that may make 2008 look like the little leagues. I suppose it's what people define as a crash, but video games are recession...

    If digital games worked like accounts for F2P games, meaning one copy works on any piece of compatible hardware I owned, I'd be much more inclined to go all in digital versus being locked to one hardware manufacturer.

    Apologizing for LRG is great look these days, I guess.

    I suppose if it's like a simple title with multiple endings where there's like 3 options, I'd get that. But games I've replayed multiple times include Divinity Original Sin 2 and Baldurs Gate 3. Not only are there different endings, I've seen new things every run. I've got the 100% in BG3...

    There's definitely shows, series, movies, etc. that benefit from a rewatch. It's definitely not a single metric to judge something on, but there are definitely some stuff I have that I will reread, rewatch, or replay.

    Letting the customer know you're using B stock is typically the thing to do. If they're thinking the price reflects new parts, A stock, and you use B, then that's usually breach on contact. With consumer products, it's more just being sketchy and gross. Whether it rises to a civil claim would...

    It's very cliche, but the art is worth it alone. One series of I recommend the anime over the source just because the level of detail is insane.

    Final product condition is reflective of the way it was produced, typically. They could be utilizing B stock parts to cut costs, which are items with non-function impairing defects (visual scuffs on the casing, no damage to pins). Or theyre just built with no quality control. They could have...

    I feel like we're going back to the era of glitches being the best deals around. Bundles are wimpy. Daily deals are disappointing.

    Nintendo eShop Deals and Discussions

    Would you all give up physical carts if Nintendo allowed resale of your digital games? I'm thinking that's one step farther than their lending program they've offered. I can see people "renting" their games to people through account sharing style stuff again like the old days on other...
