According to a video by tipster Coreteks, NVIDIA's upcoming Ampere GeForce RTX 3080 and related cards could be set to feature a traversal coprocessor, separate from the GPU die, to massively accelerate hardware ray-tracing performance. NVIDIA will purportedly use a dual-sided PCB design to implement the coprocessor: it will sit opposite the GPU core.

Is that why the cooler looks so funky?

Recently played Rogue Squadron. Holds up fine. Can't wait for this to be much worse, like Battlefront's reboot was a total embarrassment compared to the originals. Fuck EA.

Good thing I already had GoG for Gwent standalone before it's Steam release. Will reinstall, claim, and then uninstall.

Darius Cozmic Collection Console and Arcade are out today on Switch and PS4. Crazy-priced as expected- Console is $59.99 and Arcade is $44.99. So over $100 for some ROMs.

tiesto · « **Reply #25104 on:** June 16, 2020, 03:31:23 PM »

Yeah, I recall Darius Burst was also retailing for $60... which seems super inflated, but then again shmup fans tend to have a lot of spending cash. Splitting this into 2 separate collections was super-stupid. I'd have gladly forked over $40 for a combined pack, but I can't say I like the Darius series that much to pay close to $100 for both.

Though I do love this song:

I demand an HD remake.

The Spectrum and Commodore had a lot of "interesting" budget games. I remember when I was a kid Target had an endcap of C64 games for $1 or $2. They were mostly crap, but you would find some good titles mixed in, like Infiltrator and The Last Ninja.

BisMarckie · « **Reply #25113 on:** June 17, 2020, 09:04:37 AM »

Piracy was so widespread for the C64 that I don't even know what a retail game looked like.

I never played a bootleg C64 game from what I remember. But I had a ton of pirated Apple II games. Schools had them in pretty much every classroom and they had two disk drives.

Keep in mind that I got my C64 in back then Communist Poland, I don’t think there even was a legal avenue to pirchase games

I remember showing up at my cousin's place, his friend had brought over his c64 and they were playing The Last Ninja. As a nes owner, it felt like the most realistic videogame EVER.

I don't know, but you could openly buy bootleg games and music (alongside bootleg Russian cigarettes

) at pretty much every market until the early 2000's.
