FYI: Always online, even in single player. Game will be useless once Activision turns off the authentication servers.

Thank you for posting this. I would have bought it to play on my steam deck

[-] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Same. I guess I'll wait until they change that.

Their loss I guess.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Or just use an emulator to run the originals..?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

yeah maybe just pirate these, the roms are definately out there

[-] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Only for the Switch port. The EGS PC release was never cracked, AFAIK.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Apparently the steam version is now, however.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

This information now makes me wanna buy that game. Like so many, I don't mind paying for entertainment, I just don't want to be suddenly without access to the game. Activision is so stupid.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah, if I get it, I'll probably buy a license and then play the cracked version. However, I'm not likely to go through the effort, so I guess we'll see.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

If I'm able to make the game work down the road, it's enough for me.

The guy in the game really looks like Tony Hawk, weird coincidence.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Wait until he tries to rent a car.

Not sure if I want to buy it to support games coming to steam or skip it after it took so long.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago

Skip it because it's an always online singleplayer game.

It came to Steam because of the Microsoft buyout. Same with Diablo 4.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

You still have to install that annoying Blizzard launcher, I guess?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

What do you find annoying with Battlenet? It's no worse than Steam.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I'm okay with steam because:

  • basically everyone can sell their games on Steam (*conditions apply)
  • it has a (working) offline mode
  • they're putting a lot of effort into gaming on Linux
  • family sharing
  • it let's me integrate external games

The Blizzard launcher is just for the few games Blizzard is selling. It asked me to go online way too often. Maybe every single time, I don't remember exactly. It's a bit like that Rockstar launcher. I don't see any value in it besides auto updates.

Is the original soundtrack there?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Is this better than 2x?
