Quoting: PenglingWhat next, it's not ok to use the term "Metroidvania" anymore because Metroid belongs to Nintendo and Castlevania belongs to Konami?
So we need to call them "Ninamis"???......

QuoteWhat are your latest recommendations that people pick up and play?
art of rally..... Really nice relaxing rally game......

Race 07 + DLC...... Excellent entry level racing sim with tons of different cars and tracks with the DLC...... Can be dirt cheap during the sales too...... And since its quite an old game (2007)..... Will run very well on a potato........ A very, very good entry point into the world of sim racing......

NASCAR Heat 5...... Im still running an older version since they fucked up the last DLC they released and ruined the game...... A very decent and under rated NASCAR game...... Runs well on Proton.... DLC is not really needed as its only car liveries...... Can be picked up for cheap in the sales too...... Works well on a gamepad..... Though default gamepad settings are shite....... I use these settings and its much much better.....

AYANEO NEXT LITE handheld announced with SteamOS Linux

Quoting: PenglingNow THAT's more like it! Ayaneo has been in this game for quite a while, and it's nice to see them not pitching a hissy-fit like GPD did.

I'll be interested in seeing how they price it. If this does well, we could end up seeing further disruption* of the marketplace, with any luck.

*Disruption in the Blue Ocean Strategy sense, for anyone who's familiar with that.
Kind of spooky..... We were just talking about something like this the other day........
