I’m putting a lot of my old games on my steam deck by buying their PC ports whenever they go on sale.

It got me wondering, is anyone aware of games where it’s actually better to run the console version through an emulator than play the native PC version?

    Last I heard, Capcom was retroactively adding DRM to their games which could severely impact compatibility. I don’t get why Mega Man 2 would need to be protected with spyware, but that’s a big corp for you. So yeah, I’d say Capcom games might qualify.

      Someone joined a street fighter tournament with a nude Chun Li mod and that made capcom go into full lockdown mode

        In the capcom data leak which was way before that, the company was looking to lock down their games to prevent modding because that apparently ruins their image and is considered ‘cheating’. The nude mod at the tournament definitely accelerated their actions, but they always had that plan in mind.

          and now look. They’ve got unrelated people online recommending a person doesn’t buy from them because it’ll be a poor experience. Is being detached from reality a requirement for upper management?

        the only question I have is regarding how she chooses to groom her pubic hair. I believe I have been pondering this question since I was about 11 years old, and now, so close to the answer, Capcom is trying to harm me
