+ 5 more games!

WTF?? I never got lucky like this with these mystery boxes. I am more than happy!
Woah, congrats. The best thing I got out of one of these lucky draw things was Black Ops 1 lol.

The most common way is "ease."
I would have never guessed, would have probably gone with "wise".

They're one and the same. Nvidia doesn't actually release hotfixes, technically, but rather slightly updated drivers that fix a specific problem or two.

Well I mean, for most people the latest driver is the one that you can find through the regular driver search. That's why I specifically linked to the knowledge base article, since that's where the actual newest driver link lives.

Should I start metro 2033 or the witness? Havent beat either and 2033 will prolly lead into last light. How long of games are we lookin at?

For you.
Just finished Mirror's Edge Catalyst. That ending sure was something. And by that I mean nothing. The whole plot is messy really.

Human Resource Machine is great if you like some logic / maths puzzles, though it can be a complete head-scratcher to do the challenges

I can't believe that Nintendo took Switch from that GAF guy who managed to get it early. I can't imagine that somebody comes and took my GPU or anything i got before release date from my PC.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.

There is most likely more to the story.
 
There is no remake of 5?

Only on PS2 and early/mid 2000s mobile. The former was made by Taito when they were doing some budget Ys remakes, so there might be some rights issues with that (and it wasn't a very good remake apparently), while the latter, being that it was designed for feature phones, had sub-PS1-level polygonal models that wouldn't scale very well in a port. Perhaps they'll remake 5 next now that 8 is done, given that their release schedule for Ys has been new game followed by a remake in the new game's style (e.g. 6 -> Oath in Felghana (plus Origin) -> 7 -> Memories of Celceta -> 8 -> ???).

How the hell do I stop Windows 10 from updating my graphics drivers? I never had this problem before.

Switch to Linux!

Hurhurhur

Posted the same thing last week. Haven't fixed it yet since everyone seems to have different solutions.

The most common solution would end all driver updates, which I'm not entirely sure I want to do. Another one is some group policy hack, and another is using some kind of tool MS give for this situation called wupshowhide or something...

How is the driving? And is it fun if you dont care for racing games?
And does it support a wheel?

Driving is very, very arcady but fun imho. I'm usually not much of a racing game fan myself, but this is probably more comparable to something like Eurotruck simulator, since managaing your finances an trading goods is a big part of it.

It's very enjoyable overall because of how interactie your car is. You have to manually refill oil and change your tyres and al that kinda stuff. Very relaxing.

No idea bout wheels tho.

Apparently there's an option in the newer insider builds that will allow pro users to completely disable driver updates of any kind.
We’ve added an option that will now allow you to decide whether or not to include driver updates when you update Windows. This capability will be available on Professional, Education, and Enterprise editions of Windows.

I guess you have to do one of the other solutions until the 'creators update' rolls around officially. I think last I read it was coming in April, maybe.

It runs 60+FPS on my GTX1060+2600K+8GBDDR+SSD on Very High - High but main issue that it is dealbreaker for some people is frame pacing. I personally can ignore it so i don;t even notice it XD

so 60fps+ but feels bad sometimes? sounds like the evil within :p

Yeah, definitely not perfect but playable if you're the type who can ignore it, bought it at launch and it was unplayable, horrible framerate felt like the opposite of mouse acceleration where they put a 30 pound block on top of MC's head. Was like 15% playability state. After the patch 60 fps was way more plausable but it's still inconsistent and noticeable in sparse times, but nothing gamebreaking I finished the game and at least when I played it would be around 85% up to perfectly playable state it should be at.

Apparently I went with the winning faction but I own none of the 4 games so the only thing I've gotten out of this so far are 2 Genesis games I didn't own, haha.

I have the Early Access version but haven't played since release. Game looks neat but I don't think it's an RPG but more like a stealth game. Maybe that changes later but I didn't see anything that would classify as an RPG. Which is a bummer for me because I followed the Kickstarter/Indiegogo campaign where it looked like a wonderful Dark Soulsy game.

I mean look at this design:

Should give it a try in the following weeks.
