    What are you watching?

    Just watched The Beekeeper last night. I was resistant to wanting to watch this as the trailer started out looking like it was a mushy story. The movie has some sentiment toward the elderly being taken advantage of, yes, but the movie is mostly Jason Statham at his action best. Very...

    What are you watching?

    I've been anxiously awaiting a chance to see this film, but I'll probably wait until I can stream it at a good price in 4K with HDR. The original film didn't do as good a job as I would have liked on the shouts the Fremen used in battles. Did they do a fair bit better at that in this one? I'm...

    What are you watching?

    Just watched Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. The HDR is done very well, and the details of Atlantis and the battles are quite a bit more complex than the last one. There are some corny moments, but overall it's a pretty good flick.

    What's everybody playing?

    I managed to beat The Callisto Protocol on Hardcore. Overall it was easier than I thought it would be, but a hastened pace early on left me missing some loot, so I only had enough credits to upgrade the Hand Canon and Riot Gun. This left me having to shoot my way through the 4th and final wave...

    What's everybody playing?

    Been slogging through Star Wars Jedi Survivor. It's a shame that this game still has performance issues on any platform/system, because the gameplay is quite good. I have to say though that the boss fight against Darth Vader ran very smoothly.

    MAN I love this game

    I like a decent challenge, so I'm kinda diggin the boss fight with Ramon. At first it felt a bit daunting, but once I got the hang of it, things went much better. It's still not as easy as that fight was in the original, you definitely have to take your time and be careful not to get swallowed...

    What's everybody playing?

    I just completed the base game and story DLC of The Callisto Protocol. The Final Transmission DLC extends the story arc of the main character and reveals how the game really ends. I must say, despite some Steam reviews claiming this game has an uninteresting story, I thought it was pretty well...

    What's everybody playing?

    Chapter 12 - Hive / Make Your Way to the Surface This is the shortest Castle level, at just over a half hour. After the elevator ride up, you take a gondola to the Clock Tower. I like most of how the Clock Tower is different now, including the flame throwing statue of Ramon, but it has one...

    What's everybody playing?

    ---CONTAINS SPOILERS--- This is the complete Castle segment of RE 4 Remake in HDR, where I captured pretty much everything in whole chapter videos. Since there's only really 3 major segments of this game, Village, Castle, and Island, there's nearly 5 hrs total of video here, averaging roughly...

    What are you thinking? General Gaming Edition!

    I just hope the story, characters and dialog are written more maturely than GTA V. There's not much to go on by what they've said and shown so far, but I kind of get the feeling the two main characters shown here are more about desperation than living the high life that Michael starts out with...

    What's everybody playing?

    Lately I'm playing Atomic Heart, Sniper Elite 5, Dead Space Remake, The Callisto Protocol, and Jedi Survivor, all of which I got on the EA Play and Steam holiday sale. ---SOME SPOILERS AHEAD--- Atomic Heart Sort of like a steampunkish alternate timeline where the soviet union won WWII and...

    Enabling HDR

    BTW, I found out it was my GTX 1080 making the captures look washed out while playing with HDR on. The RTX 4080 I just put in the new rig I built has no problem capturing it. I pretty much figured that would be the case when I remembered ShadowPlay uses the encoding architecture on the GPU just...

    Enabling HDR

    BTW, I want to add to what I said above that I've seen people imply a display does not support HDR if it's not on VESA's HDR Certified list. This is not true, it just means the manufacturer of the display did not pay to have VESA test and certify it.

    Enabling HDR

    I assume you may be referring to getting HDR to work in RE4 Remake? It was the other way around for me, I assumed since my new TV DOES support HDR, I would be able to just turn it on in game. Nope, it will just say you need an HDR capable display. Then after doing a net search I found you need...

    What are you watching?

    Just watched Extraction 2 last night. I was putting off watching this as I couldn't even recollect anything from the first one, which is often a sign it's forgettable. This one was FAR better though. I mean holy crap, the action and especially close quarters combat scenes were VERY well...
