I have a 3570K but I'm still running it at stock clocks because I didn't realise that pretty much none of the affordable non-stock coolers fit in my case properly (or, at least, none of the ones available at the time did). I keep meaning to get that sorted, but to be honest I've had very few games where my CPU's been the limiting factor (GTA V, maybe?), so I've never bothered. I guess I'll just get a new case when I finally upgrade, but my 970/3570K's been more than enough for 1080p for years now, and I'm certainly not dropping a bunch of cash on a new monitor anytime soon, so :shrug:

Did wind up having to swap out the CPU when I put in the 970 since 8 years ago I bought like the cheapest AMD quad-core processor available so the card outpaced it. My PC is well on its way to being The PC of Theseus with all the stuff I've replaced/upgraded and obviously the best megaman game is the first X but I like X2 also

i've only played the gba versions but yeah unless you're looking to refight the zero 3 and 4 bosses in zx1 or hook zero 3 up to a copy of battle network, that's probably a good way to play it

They should put X1 on switch and the only thing they change is that you can dash from moment one and I would buy it

Instead they put it on PSP and hid the dash. :thumbsup:

for me it's worse because i assembled 95% of my new rig reusing the old case from my last pc and just used my old graphics card while waiting for my new one to arrive, then when the card arrived earlier this week i found out it doesn't fit in the old case. so this is the second time i'm doing it.

They put the measurements of the card and case on the store pages. I was so paranoid about this happening to me that I didn't buy my video card until I confirmed three different build reports including photographs that my card + case would fit together

I like that the Zero games have really crazy unlockables, you gotta do some crazy dumb stuff to get ultimate mode unlocked on those games.

I somehow managed to fail state Breath of Fire III at the Shisu bullshit section. The NPCs didn't mention anything about how to make it and none of the games are flagged. Had to use an earlier save and made the worst Shisu he would accept after failing it once.

That sucks, sorry dude. I'm glad you're playing BoF3 though, it's a great game.

It's funny to go back and play Anticipation on the NES for shits and giggles because even though 8 bit pictionary cant exactly be complex there are times where I'm just starting at the screen and trying to figure what in the gently caress the game is trying to draw haha

good news i did this and the new case wouldn't initially fit my new card either


i say initially because it turns out cheap chinese 3.5" bays are pretty loving easy to bend out of the way in anger

The only thing more memorable than the music in that game, is the very poor quality screeching sound when you make a mistake.

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

I don't think I could ever play Zero 1 without save states but 3 and 4 are legitimately great games and Megaman fans should try them.

I've been pretty down on Path of Exile in the past but if I'm reading it right their new patch kills the 'beat the game 3 times over' system in favor of one long story, which sounds great. I've always hated the idea that you have to beat the game to unlock the real game, and I think a lot of these games, honestly d2 included, are worse for it.

tbh the greatest reason for zero games after the first one is basically everything to do with omega zero. he's probably the best final boss in any mega man game ever made, in a series that already spawned and would later spawn the second and third best

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
So apparently if you play the Shadow Tactics demo on PS4 then buy the full game it doesn't flip the "purchased" switch and now it won't let me past the second stage. The "X to Continue" is greyed out, and even after deleting the game and re downloading it it comes up as the demo version. I've purged it again, including the save files, and it's downloading for a third time now.

It's very frustrating
