Neither one. I think it is the DOS game.

http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Aladdin_(video_game) The PC versions (Amiga and DOS) were also based on the Genesis version. The only differences in the PC version from the console one are a different HUD and improved music and sound effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJsuOYs5EnM I doubt the SNES version would ever officially be up for sale for PC, but the Genesis/MegaDrive version could conceivably be added to the SEGA Mega Drive and Genesis Classics hub on Steam if Disney and Sega reach a deal. The three games on GOG are Aladdin, Lion King, and Jungle Book: https://www.gog.com/promo/20160804_l...he_jungle_book |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
That's interesting. I grew up with the Genesis version so i'm good with that :lol:

Quake Champions looks like a sweet nod to Quake 3 Arena.

Re: PC Gaming Thread
Getting an Unreal Tournament vibe from it as well. Looking forward to it.

Re: PC Gaming Thread
Sure why not.
I'm at the point now where I want the original game remade with Fry and Bender. |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
Toejam and Earl: Back in the Groove is actually the result of a Kickstarter about a year and a half ago:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...ve/description The original creator is helming the new game: http://www.polygon.com/features/2015...e-greg-johnson The "coming to PC and console" tag at the end of the ad is promising, since the Kickstarter actually failed to reach any of the console stretch goals. The Kickstarter did promise Windows, OS X, and Linux versions. |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
^ Adult Swim Games picked it up and probably pushed for the console releases, which is a huge perk for the devs -- Adult Swim advertises the hell out of their titles.

Been re-playing some games using an Ultrawide Aspect Ratio, pretty cool stuff.

Re: PC Gaming Thread
Within the last month or so I went ahead and upgraded both my monitor and GPU. Picked up the Dell S2716DG monitor and a GTX 1070.
Overall I'm pretty happy with everything. Out of the two upgrades, the biggest difference has been with the monitor by far. I got it about a month ago and I absolutely love it. Big time resolution bump plus 144Hz have both been hugely noticeable. I just put the 1070 in today. I'm getting 50-70 fps with settings pretty much maxed in Deus Ex, and around 115 fps in Overwatch. Does that sound right? Honestly, I expected to get better performance. Could my processor (i5-4670) be holding things back? Hopefully, I'm done for this year. I really expected to drag this upgrade process out over the next few months, but I figured let's just get it out of the way. I got a nice deal on the monitor and I got the card under MSRP. Can't complain about that. |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
If you are playing at 2560 x 1440 those should be good numbers.
Also, are you using G-Sync? You may be able to get bigger numbers if you turn it off, but then again, you have to choose your trade offs. That's the thing with PC, you have to choose what you want enabled. |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
Yeah, I'm playing at full resolution with g sync.
I did some searching online earlier today and found others who had the same questions as I did. Turns out, like you said, everything's fine. There's a setting in Overwatch to change (forgot what it was atm) that bumped my fps up to 130ish. And I guess Deus Ex is just a hog and taxes even even the more beefier builds. |
Re: PC Gaming Thread
So we just got a new gaming PC, will be here Thursday. Intel i7 6700 4-4.2 MHZ, 32 gigs ram, 2 tb hybrid + 500 gig SSD, GEForce 1080 8 meg, 27 inch Benq gaming monitor, the works. So far the only game I'm excited to play is Super Tetris :lol: I have a netbook that I can't even use iTunes and spreadsheets on, which I need for school (the spreadsheets), so I use my PHONE for schoolwork, which is more powerful than my Netbook. I'm most excited about adding the cheapie second monitor and having a spreadsheet in one monitor and my textbook in the other.
Soooo I've been looking around and we're getting Skyrim just because it looks pretty and it's 20 bucks. I'm interested first in room escape games, but really pretty and involved room escape games that make use of the PC's capabilities. Any suggestions? Nothing like horror escape where you're outrunning something and can get killed, but here you are trapped in a room, get out. Thanks! :) |

Re: PC Gaming Thread
I have a lot of indie games on my wishlist that have good discounts, so I'm probably going to pick up about a dozen titles or so.

Re: PC Gaming Thread
Big sale at Origin I guess.

As it's only just streaming the video, your fps is going to be dependent on what you get when you're normally gaming on PC. I have a Cisco gigabit router, so that's probably the more important part. |
