Computer games.


The new Mario Kart on the Switch 2 will have an open world map that you can drive around to and from the races as opposed to going back to a loading screen. It "works", apparently.

Barely looks any better than the previous game visually. I know Nintendo kind of operate in their own market but I find them frustrating with some of their decisions especially in a technical sense, too archaic.

There'll be a ton of secret races, achievement unlocked, fast & furious style map based competitions. It could be a multiverse style and amazing. Or they could bleed diddy kong racing across?

I have no doubt it will play well and be fun, i would like them to be a bit more with the times in other areas. After eight years since their last hardware I found it all a little underwhelming.
 

Finally got that Kingdom Come Deliverance II. Played about 4 hours on it, then my GPU hosed itself. Unsurprisingly, it won't run on intel Integrated graphics. GPUs are totally at a premium and I can't afford $1000+

Tried on my Mac studio. Not Mac compatible, doesn't work with Whisky/Wine. Some suggestions to try Parallels but in my experience that's always been absolutely plop.

So it seems I have to wait a while, frustrating!
Tried geforce now and it works great. Highly recommended to the point where I probably won't bother buying a replacement GPU.

Turns out also that I didn't realise I had to assign perk points which means I've been playing on slightly harder than necessary mode. Decent game so far, though I do hate the lock picking mini "game".
 
Here's something that I thought was interesting:

Ummmmm... 🤔
Felt like a bit of Warzone this last weekend, so I downloaded it again. I won't put money into it so I'm playing as some British fella I earned in the past.

Considering it's a game where people are trying to kill you, it's amazing how many people think glowing like a beacon is a good idea. My favourite skin I've seen thus far is a ninja Turtle. Had one in my squad and it was quite surreal watching him gun people down.
