Discussion Where do you guys find new games and good deals?
Been trying to find some new stuff to play outside of just scrolling Steam forever lol.
I know Kongregate, CrazyGames and Go Get Games for browser/online games and random stuff, but what else do you guys use?
Mostly looking for places to discover games or find decent discounts. Doesnāt have to be some huge site either, smaller ones are cool.
What am I missing?
What gaming terms or ideas apply to real life?
I was thinking about unemployment, as I'm sure a lot of us are in this age, and about advice people who have obtained gainful employment say about it. I imagined a conversation between a retired boomer and an unemployed millennial, something I would say is probably a cannon event for most.
Retiree: "Well I just don't understand how you don't have a job yet. Have you tried going in and giving them a firm handshake? That's how I got my job at the Big box store my uncle recommended me."
Milly vanilly: "Yea, the devs patched that exploit."
I don't think someone would say that but maybe they should as it fits like a glove (ace ventura reference sick right bros?)
The brain rot has gotten me. I leave the rest to you.

Discussion Should I get Super Mario All-stars on the Wii over the SNES?
Posted this on another gaming sub too but felt like I should ask here too
I'm watching a video currently that's ranking a lot of 2D Mario stages, and every now and then it shows stages from Super Mario All-stars, I'm wondering if it's worth it to get the Wii version over the SNES version due to my couch being too far from the TV for normal wired controllers to play the original SNES version, so the Wii version might be better in that regard for me for the Classic Controller plugging into the Wiimote, however I do hear that some people say the SNES version is still the better pick so I'm wondering which version I should get, as I do have a way to play both versions, being 3 Wiis (overbearing I know lmao) and a Wii U for the Wii version, and the Retron 5 for the SNES version
I do know that there's also the version of All-stars with Mario World, but that's not one I need as I already have a cartridge of Mario World so it would feel a bit redundant
I don't know if it has any affect for anything here but I'm in Canada, so this is more regarding NTSC, however I do have a Wii with the region lock removed and the Retron isn't region locked so if I did find a PAL or other region version it would still work

Discussion I made a lightweight Windows app that launches Steam, Playnite, GOG, or Epic when you press your controller Xbox or PS button!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I wanted my PC to behave more like a console: press the controllerās power button, let it connect, and automatically open my game launcher.
Windows Task Scheduler and Bluetooth event triggers werenāt reliable, so I builtĀ Controller Launcher, a small open-source Windows utility.
Features:
- Launches Steam, Playnite, GOG Galaxy, Epic Games Launcher, or any customĀ
.exe - Reacts to controller connection events instead of constantly polling
- Uses around 1 MB of private memory while idle
- Uses 0% CPU while waiting
- Runs invisibly without a tray icon
- Starts automatically with Windows
- Includes a separate GUI configurator
- Wonāt relaunch the selected app if itās already running
Currently tested with:
- 8BitDo Ultimate 2C using the 2.4 GHz receiver
- DualShock 4 v2 over Bluetooth
The project is open source under the MIT license. Support for more controllers can be added through their hardware IDs, so testing and contributions are welcome.
GitHub:
https://github.com/M-Essa11/Controller-Launcher
Latest Windows installer:
https://github.com/M-Essa11/Controller-Launcher/releases/latest
If you test it with another controller, please share the controller model and whether it worked. Bug reports and pull requests are welcome.

Discussion What do you call games that give you this feeling? And what do they call?
I mean games where you have some kind of mobile vehicle or base that feels like āhome,ā It can be a car, train or even submarine, and you travel through the game world freely or as part of the story.
A lot of games give me this feeling, for example Keep Driving, Metro Exodus, Last Train Home, Zompiercer, Barotrauma, Pacific Drive and others.
It is not just about driving or traveling, and it don't have to be a survival game. It is more about having a moving shelter, a small home, or a crew space that goes with you while the world outside keeps changing.
Is there a specific genre or term for this kind of game?
Does anyone else feel fascinated by this feeling?
