So I am more then a little underwhelmed if this is the best they have to show on the system. Not exactly fulfilling the 'Game, Stream and Connect like never before' promise. It still will be quite interesting to finally hear some first hand, non-vetted reports on the system and how well it actually runs. As for the backers, I sympathize with them a bit over this. .. but at the same time I am getting a lot of entertainment as a spectator for this non-stop trainwreck of a project! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TankedThomas Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Reminder that Antstream doesn't have a Linux app, so they'll still have to run it on Windows or under Wine. Or they have a Linux build in progress which will probably manage to break GPL because Atari is clever that way. I'm half-expecting them to stand at the front of the line with pen and paper (NDAs) for people to sign before going hands-on. Or that "hands-on" is the same thing we saw from that softball CES video where the guy got to hold a controller. How riveting. 5 hours ago, frankodragon said: Yes.

Lodmot Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Just now, CPUWIZ said: Small TV? Extension cable fetish? Ehh… I just find it annoying to have to sync my controllers up with my PC all the time. Then you gotta charge them when the battery is low, and after a while the built-in rechargeable battery actually gets permanently weaker. I'd rather just stick with a USB controller if I'm given the option to. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
