Pavlov VR comes to mind, it's basically Counter-Strike in VR. It has tons of maps and modes you can download.
rockstar launcher has the most enraging Capchas on its login.
The "Pick out cars or fire hydrants" bullshit and you hit and one fades out and another picture pops up. Fuckers, give me the 9 picutres to pick from, I'm not Skynet, you don't need to juke me.

God yes. I sure as hell hate having to discover what they consider a hill between 32x32 low quality images. Then you've some in which you don't know if a certain square is part of the object they want or not.
The thing I'm looking forward to most with the new gen is hopefully people kinda "forgetting" about the PC space. All this focus on PC lately seems to smack of people that are bored with their consoles and "discovering" PC gaming.
Oh man, that looks outstanding!
Man, I do need more FEAR in my life. Are the expansions worth playing? They came with the base game on steam.
Oh man I've been waiting for this for so long. I'll wait a bit longer until it's out of beta, really looking forward to doing a complete run. Hopefully they get everything stable before Alyx releases.
New Dawn update is out for Legends of Aria. Adds free to play accounts, among others.
Oh man. I've bought black Mesa day one and barely got into it just to wait for this. It's only been like 8 years lol
Black Mesa...it has been....so long.....
Honestly I should wait a couple more months, this beta release will probably be buggy as hell.

You can definitely tell right away that the production values are much higher than 1. I've been waiting for the season to finish and I'm finally about to start Episode 2. Very exciting!
I'm still in the range where 15gb feels like a lot. but the vast majority of the games I play are smaller indie titles or digital board games lol.
of course I also have asgard's wrath installed which I bought a new SSD for specifically because it's like 140gb lol.
my top 12 installed games by file size
and tomb raider is only there because I wanted to try out the benchmark tool lol. (though borderlands 2 at 25 gigs or so was there for a while before that.)
CloudLands VR Minigolf, make your own courses.
Modbox. It's actually just a design/game engine for people to make their own content with in dedicated rooms but plenty of people have and there is fun to be had or opportunity to stretch your creative muscles if that is what you are looking for.
Tabletop Simulator. It's just VR supported, but I like being able to look around a table in first person with it and people have made every game out there just about.
40 years ago games were 2KB. Most of my early gaming was on a 48KB ZX Spectrum. These 50GB games are 1,000,000 times the size of those Spectrum games.
Ah, memories! Yep, those were the days - typing out code from the back of Commodore 64 magazines, then saving all that work to cassette tape.
The Day of Reckoning has arrived!
Everyone, to the shelters!
I found this in my house the other day:
I can send you photos of what to type for some of these games if you want.
That would be great. Galactic Monsters, Qui Vive, Escher, Explosion, I.T. The Adventure of the Century, and Fallout are ones that catch my eye. Any one of those would be nice to try out if it's not too much trouble.
I find that a lot better to what I had for UT2K4 a good number of years back. I think it was 6 or 8 CDs that came in a huge fold case, which is probably the most amount of discs I had for a PC game install.
The moment I saw the 'Uno da firma' I thought: "This game must be from a Brazilian developer or at least has some Brazilian working on the team". XDDon't sleep out on Horizon Chase Turbo, it has 4 player split screen, a free Easy Mode campaign for some relaxing driving as you also get to learn the stages and an outstanding soundtrack.
Unfortunately it seems to be nerfed alot!
They're more FEAR. They do play a little... stiffer? You might know what I mean after you play them. They weren't Monolith developed and they're not canon. Most people like Extraction Point more but I preferred Perseus Mandate.
Qui Vive and I.T. require 48K of memory.
If any image is unreadable, just tell me and I'll take a new photo of that page.
EDIT: Aaaand Imgur deorganized the entire thing, fun.

Hopefully it doesn't take too much longer for Black Mesa to come out of beta. I feel like it's been in development forever.
From Wikipedia:
"Black Mesa began as the combination of two independent volunteer projects, each aiming to completely recreate Half-Life using Source. The Leakfree modification was announced in September 2004. The Half-Life: Source Overhaul Project was announced one month later.[8] After realizing their similar goals, project leaders for both teams decided to combine their efforts; they formed a new 13-person team under the name Black Mesa: Source.[7] The "Source" in the project's title was later dropped when Valve asked the team to remove it in order to "stem confusion over whether or not [it was] an endorsed or official product", which at the time it was not.[9] "

Got extreme cs_office vibes mixed with FEAR. I'm gonna keep a close eye on this, I was just thinking recently about how much I missed FEAR. I hope Monolith gets to do more than just the LOTR stuff they've been doing.
Ugh, I'm only a couple of bucks short on my Steam wallet to purchase it right now lol. I'll have to top-up later today.
You have the perfect avatar for that footage! Thanks for the link. :)
I think they are mentioning because there's been discussion here on the rumor of HZD coming to PC
The December humbly monthly was pretty decent. And I have a $5 coupon for the region-locked Soulcalibur VI which is sort of a nice bonus since I wouldn't have played it anyway.
Disappointed that Void Bastards, one of the games actually on my wishlist, got swapped out in Humble Choice.
