Vinegar is a safari extension that gives you premium’s features. I’m almost certain it can do at least 1080 if not higher.

I have a 2070 super with dual 1440 monitors. Spider-Man remastered runs at 90fps, high settings, with ray tracing so I’m not sure what this article is getting at with how only the newest high end video cards match consoles.

I often use my second monitor but just from a practical perspective, it doesn’t need to be all that nice. You may consider just upgrading your main monitor. Though, like you mentioned, an ultra wide might be a good choice.

A couple great 2D indie games I’d recommend are carrion (if you’re into horror movies) and katana zero. Most Halo campaigns as well as gears of war are pretty short.

I also absolutely appreciate shorter games. I’m in the same boat where my time is limited, I’ve recently gotten into games that are pick up and play, have short segments, and save often. From that perspective, Spider-Man remastered is perfect, and it’s kid friendly enough that I can play occasionally with my kids in the room.

I’m talking out of my ass, but are there any 360’s that have survived this long? I went through 3 or 4 with the red ring. I can’t imagine time has been kind to the solder and thermal paste. Did MS ever have a later model that had a long term fix?

The music in this game is way better than it needs to be.

I don’t have a PS5, but would love one to play the last of us 2 and ghost of Tsushima. I’m happy to see Sony putting a lot of their flagship games on pc. I would assume those 2 are in the pipeline somewhere.

The Spider-Man games are also pretty great. A pretty solid catalog, especially when you compare the price of a PS5 to comparable pc hardware nowadays.

As with Starfield, I’m reserving my expectations for when these games release. The last couple years especially we’ve seen some extremely broken and busted games. Also the monetization aspect can totally ruin a game for me. I find it immersion breaking and it sucks the fun out of it. Is there a !cynicalgamers community?
