I tried the beta of the new Nvidia overlay, from quick look I suppose it's better then it was, but could be way better.

The performance overlay does not allow you to switch text color, size, or opacity, just if it has a background or not, line break up and position on the screen. It's also missing the bottom 1% fps counter it had before, so maybe re-add that and also add bottom 1% frame times. Could have a little line chart for frame times like other overlays do.

I do wish the Graphics driver settings, global and per game were available in the overlay, so for example maybe set max fps setting as I am playing instead of needing to quit or Alt+tab. Lastly it needs sorting options in the per program settings.list cause I don't even know what it's sorting it by, the apps seem all over the place.

It's a control panel. It works. Putting lipstick on a pig doesn't make the pig better.

Can you honestly say the new, modern settings panel in Windows is in any way superior to the old, quaint Control Panel? In many ways it's worse.

Don't know yet about this new version but the current control panel sucks. I had an AMD card some 2 or so years ago and was surprised how much better their control panel was then Nvidia one. For one I could go into the overlay while in a game and have access to bunch of settings to be set per game on the fly, or globally if I wanted to, or bunch of performance settings and how often they should update and where to display them. On Nvidia control panel by comparison, to change any of those settings, I had to quit the game, open the control panel, wait like 10 seconds for it to load, switch to the per game settings, hope it's in that slow dropdown that has a ton of applications with no search function. If it's not there click Add button, wait like another 30 seconds for the list of recent apps to load, then hope it's in that list otherwise you need to go digging for the executable of the app you want to set the settings for. This might have been ok 10-15 years ago, not now.

Tried to redeem my old CD key for it but would not work. They could have at least allow you to do it for this game.

The Prince of Persia Sands of Time series was quite brilliant. What happened?

Assassins Creed happened, and Ubisoft made way more money with that IP. All while, after the Sands of time trilogy, Prince of Persia (2008) was not really that well received, and Forgotten Sands was really forgettable.

So, what's the reason for naming it "ultimate" then? Marketing hype word? Updating the game and adding a DLC makes it "ultimate"? Thinking

They released a physical version of the bundle and named it Ultimate edition. So yeah it's pretty much marketing. So if you buy Phantom Liberty from GoG, or some other store that sells GoG codes you will have the Ultimate Edition with your original game.

His original writing was kind of a mess. Short stories made into books. One of the reasons the first season of the netflix series is a mess.
Ah... the first 2 books are just a compilation of his short stories that were originally published separately in magazines. Saying that he is a messy writer because of it is like saying Joe Abercombie or Brandon Sanderson are messy writers because Sharp Ends or Arcanum Unbounded were published as single books.

There is also possibility of it not just being about Activision individual purchase, but about MS buying up a lot of game companies. Bethesda was a big one too, and MS was quick making those future games exclusive to their platforms.

The Zero (0) reviews do not agree with your hypothesis that it's due to "the poor quality of the game."
This is quintessential review bombing.
After a quick look though some of the reviews in your link I see only one review related to the Blizzard scandal which if those were all of them I would agree that they are review bombing as it does not have have to do with the games quality. But the rest of them deal pretty much with the poor implementation of the monetization systems that make the game crappy for those people, so how are they not valid reviews?

Are they really going to charge $70 for it? Seems bit much, when you can get the PS5 version for like $45 right now.

Pretty much what jacob said. Just because you have X car doesn't mean you can drive it, or drive it well.

Hell finally figured out how to drift for the first time since the Forza franchise was created
To me your kind of experience shows the issue with this progression system. They pretty much give you random cars to the point where it took you a long while to figure out a basic mechanic, cause you probably had access to cars that were more powerful but also more difficult to handle. I argue that the progression should be giving you less powerful cars at first and steer you to ones that are capable of completing, for example a drifting mission, easier. So you can learn those basics, then after that have the game start giving you more powerful cars where you can utilize that earlier experience. If I wanted to learn to drift does then game tell you how to do it, which cars to start with, and which cars to advance after, or does it just throw cars at you randomly?

I really wish they would redo the progression system in FH5 though, the previous games had the same one and it's just not well designed. Bunch of lotteries, and just getting top cars without much work. I started the game picked one of the 3 cars after the first mission, and 2 races later I had a super car, and like previous FH I'm already starting to get bored with the game. It's just way more satisfying unlocking progressively better cars though out the game instead of being handed top of the line cars right at the beginning.

They deliberately choose their FPS target, it's not a question of ability.

Bloodborne had really hard time even achieving 30 fps on PS4, and even when it did, the frame pacing was messed up and would stutter, an issue that still present even on PS4 Pro and PS5, cause From software as good as their games were did not know how to design it correctly at that time. After that game though they started getting better.

I envy people who are able to buy any GPU at MSRP. It's impossible in Poland, the cards are so overpriced it's wiser to invest in a used car instead. I already purchased an insanely overpriced RTX 3060 that barely manages to offer good enough performance at 1080p and I feel terribly dirty now.
If you want give Amd.com a shot. I think they do drops in EU too, but I do not know how big? From what I remember I think they happened on Thursdays too around the same time as US one, but maybe like an hour before (so it would be 3-5PM for you). This was few months ago so might be different now. Powodzenia

How in the 666 levels of the Abyss did you get a new card at MSRP? Everything I've seen here at any retailer that's actually in stock is still 100%+ over MSRP.

Started looking for a card for one of my cousins back in October of last year, signed up for any of the EVGA queues I could, then finally was able to grab EVGA 3070 from Best Buy in January for over $500 I think. Then stopped looking but after a while noticed how much I could sell my 1080 GTX for so I started again in March but did not have any luck with Nvidia cards which I would rather get since more games were starting to use DLSS. But with no luck for months, I decided to give Amd.com a shot in early May and within 4 weeks I had the card. At that time at least they had regular drops every Thursday at 10-11am Est (they might still do, but I stopped checking) and was able to grab a 6800 XT on my 4th try (would have been 3rd but my bank messed up the order a week prior). Then over summer more of my cousins wanted cards and finally that's when the EVGA queues started to catch up, got one cousin a 3080 TI last month (it was way too much for me at $1400 but he was willing to pay for it), and for another cousin got a 3070 TI for $850 just few days ago.

EDIT: It appears the AMD.com still has Thursday drops but its random entry instead of first come first serve, but you might still have some luck with it, the tracker stream (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ7BrgHqhQQ) I used before says last one was at 10/07 at 10:02 AM ET, so I suspect another batch will drop tomorrow, but no guarantees.

Even at MSRP this series is overpriced.
If you compare it to old pricing then absolutely its overpriced, with the current prices though not really. Like I was able to grab a 6800 XT at MSRP, $690 after taxes, while at the same time sold my 1080 GTX for $435 after Ebay fees. Whole difference was like $250.
If I was not able to get that card but was able to get this for MSRP I would have done it, cause I would get a more powerful card then 1080 and still be left with about $100 extra in my pocket.

I hope Apple loses their appeal. If this means Apple will have to sell their phones for a higher price to make up for their lost profits, then I am all for that. The games industry should not have to subsidize non-gamers on Apple platforms.
WTF does this even mean? If anything, Epic wants Apple to subsidize their presence on the AppStore.
I am not fan of Epic, but no, they do not. If anything they want to be able to sideload their own store on the phone and bypass the AppStore completely, however Apple does not allow this claiming it would compromise their security. a pure BS statement since they allow installing any apps on their computers yet somehow that does not compromise their security there. To me this is like if Microsoft decided to force everyone to use their windows store for all new application installations, no more GoG or Epic or Steam stores allowed since that would be a competition.
Epic is suing Google too but they just claim that they make sideloading difficult for the user, though I would disagree with that, as its simple to bypass with some simple instructions for the regulars users. Apple on the other hand is way worse, and I hope they completely loose this appeal, not for Epic but for any other developer from being forced to use their overpriced payment methods.
I remember when Microsoft got into trouble for making IE a default and integrated browser on Windows for being monopolistic, but now somehow Apple forcing everyone to user their store and payment methods is not?

Yeah, so they have all of these cards just sitting around that they can send out as RMA's but they don't have cards to fulfill orders for people who have bene siting in their wait ques for about a year now. Something just does not add up here about that.

What do you think would would make EVGA look worse: having people wait in queue for months to just be able to buy a card, or people that were able to buy a card but had an issue with it and then had wait for months for a replacement because EVGA sold all their cards? The latter option would make them look way worse as just being really greedy. They have to have a stock for RMAs to fix issues quickly, I would expect every company to have one. If I had to wait months for a replacement card because it broke under warranty, while people have a better chance of buying a new card, I would never buy EVGA card again.

Now that we know FSR is pretty much a complete non-starter, that DLSS promotion is going to be Everywhere.

How is it a complete non-starter? Sure DLSS results in better quality and has more headroom to improve, but FSR still makes the picture look better then just regular upscaling, is relatively easy to implement, is open to everyone, and is supported pretty much on any card from last 4 years maybe more. Considering how hard it is to get an NVidia 20 or 30 series cards at normal price, a lot of people wont be able to use DLSS for a while anyway. While not easy either, if you want AMD card you have much better chances of getting one. I was able to get 3070 FE back in January and no card since them (though I only really wanted either FE, EVGA, or Asus). Then last month I tried getting AMD card, failed to get one in the first Thursday drop, the bank declined the payment on the 2nd for some reason but I got to the checkout, and got 6800 XT card on the 3rd week.
Would I rather have a 3080 for RTX and DLSS, sure it would be nice, but considering I cannot get that one without paying scalper prices AMDs 6800 XT will more the suffice me for few years, and how knows what tech we will have by then.
