      I'm already paying an extra $50 for 'unlimited' to my ISP. Bring on the streaming.

        Previously Sony exclusive games from Quantum - Detroit Become Human, Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls will be coming to Epic Games Store on PC.

        Other Ubisoft titles will become part of the rotation of free titles in the Epic storefront also.

          Steam is dying a slow death. Epic Games Store is looking better and better by the week. Can't blame game companies though for ditching Steam. Steam takes a 30 to 35% cut. Epic only taking a 12% cut and don't have DRM.

            If Valve doesn't innovate, you're correct. I've been slowly migrating to GOG (and GOG Galaxy) over the past year.

                That's nice, did they announce something? I try not to get my hopes up and assume stuff like that is fan art.

                  It was mentioned during Valve's conference yesterday at GDC 2019. A few members of the community were in attendance and posted pictures of the slide show Valve was displaying: https://steamdb.info/blog/steam-busi...e-at-gdc-2019/.

                  EDIT: I just noticed Variety posted a small piece on the conference as well - https://variety.com/2019/gaming/news...re-1203169055/

                    Anyone with a non RTX card used any RTX settings with the new drivers? I'm curious as to how well these 1070s and 1080s are running RTX stuff. Can't imagine too well, but it still is interesting. The only game I have right now I can think of that uses RTX is BFV, but I don't have it installed anymore.



                    I will end up buying Exodus when it is cheaper, but I also planned on that being far enough down the road I'd have already moved on from this 1070ti by then.

                        That bad huh? Hoping that with my 1080ti I can get a little bit of that action with a satisfactory frame rate

                          Well, Firefox really screwed the pooch today with its newest update. The verification certificate most add-ons use expired today because of the recent update. The add-on team is supposedly working quickly to rectify the situation. Still waiting to see if the extensions will require an update or not...

                          I DO NOT want to download Chrome.

                            Sounds like it's time to download Chrome.

                              I haven't had to download a Firefox update still, so my few add-ons are all running fine? It says I am up to date as well when I check that in the options. I guess the few I use don't have the verification certificate so it isn't affecting me?
