A bit to early to know . but as things progress ... Lets talk about the pros and cons of the only ways to play RDR1 on PC...

With the Switch version out now , Will it become the best way to be played on PC ?

I don't expect the Switch version will be the best way to play on PC. It will likely be 30fps, with FSR and filtering that will make it look worse even when upscaled. There may be mods to unlock the framerate and remove any filtering although it's no guarantee. I wouldn't be surprised if they downgrade the models and make a bunch of other changes which will make it inferior, and there'll be funky behaviour with LODs. All stuff which might get fixed with mods but still likely to be an inferior experience.

If you have a decent PC, RDR1 through Xenia is a beauty. Proper 4K with unlocked framerate. Can't be beat.

I agree , Canary runs RDR1 great even on my rx 560 and 17 3770 at 60FPS , We own a switch but have played with the 2 emus and well they work OK... I do own rdr1 on 360... my 360 took a crap tho , so really dont see this as a piracy thing ( just saying) wanting to see what people have to say about emulating this.... really its stupid not to have a pc version

ohh and to make clear , when I said --We own a switch but have played with the 2 emus and well they work OK

I was not talking about rdr1 --- just mean games in general for my old crap hardware / compared to how well x canary runs

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
