You know what, geo wars 3 please.

Birdorf

Done.

acemuzzy

Oof just seen that huge list for Birdorf... I'd love any of the following!!

Octahedron: Transfixed Edition
Road to Ballhalla
Project CARS + Limited Edition Upgrade / Project CARS 2 + Japanese Cars Bonus Pack - which is better?!?
LostWinds 2: Winter of the Melodias

acemuzzy

I've not got anything very new, cos i keep pausing my humble choice.

I've got a Horace though, if anyone fancies that??

Birdorf

P Cars 2 is better, probably. I really enjoyed it but I've read that it's not great with a pad. Can't really remember playing the first but I must have.

acemuzzy

Thank you kind sir!!

Birdorf

No worries, glad to be rid of a few.

superflyninja

First time in this thread, finally built a budget gaming PC.
Ryzen 2600x
16 gb ram 3400
SSD
1660 Super OC

Just saw that list @Birdorf posted, Id be delighted with any of these:
Batman Arkham Origins
Race The Sun
Space Quest™ Collection
Police Quest Collection

I do have question. Ive signed up to gamepass and have installed Gears 4 which I wanna play on my ps4 pad. I installed ds4 and Ive connected over Bluetooth, but Gears doesn't see my pad. Any ideas?

Facewon

I always have trouble with bt and my Xbox controllers on pc. I end up just usb most fo the time.

Sorry if that's less than helpful.

Anyone having trouble with gog recently? Mines suddenly decided to be offline permanently and won't show other games.

Annoying AF.

Interesting - how much did it cost you for that setup?
Re ds4, can never get it to work

DS4Windows will emulate an Xbox controller with your DS4, allowing you to use it for mostly any game without issue. It's a pretty powerful bit of software actually, let me know if you need any tips.

If the DS4 is not natively supported you may also be able to use Steam's controller configuration too, it has support for the DS4. But as you are playing through gamepass you would probably need to add the .exe to Steam which might be a pain. Probably worth looking at for other games though.

Some games will support it natively, such as Death Stranding which has excellent support even with the touchpad button. It's my favourite controller so far, great for PC use. With DS4Windows you can use the touchpad as a mouse pointer which is great for games that have incomplete controller layouts, I remember using that when I played Spintires to select winch points. You can even bind the gyro to do things.

GurtTractor

Also be sure to use this version of DS4Windows - https://ryochan7.github.io/ds4windows-site/

Unfortunately the first result in a google search lists the page for the original version that hasn't been updated in 4 years, and that one is pretty buggy and bad in comparison. I've had excellent results with the Ryochan version. Some games will recognise the DS4 as a generic controller, so if you want to trick the game into thinking it's a regular Xbox controller just go the settings tab and tick "Hide DS4 Controller" which prevents the native input being sent to anything. You usually need to do that before starting a game.

hunk

Steam works fine with the ds4 wired and wireless.
Wired works flawless most of the time, it's the wireless bt that gives problems in apps other than Steam. Epic's version of Heavy Rain comes to mind.

And then there's the issue of w10update screwing up bt drivers not functioning properly on laptop hw. Mine disables after sleep and won't reinitialise after wake.

GurtTractor

I've not any connection issues with mine, though I do have wifi and bluetooth built into my mobo and an external antenna attachment which works great. I'm a big fan of built in wireless with mobos, dongles and cards are a faff.

There is a V2 version of the DS4, got one recently. Has some differences in the way it connects I think, and things like better battery life and other minor tweaks.

oof about 5 or 600. I had the ssd myself already. Probably closer to 600. The 1660 was about 210, 50 for case, bout 70 for the ram, about 60 for psu (650 bronze),got 5 rbg fans for about 30 (as recommended by Jayz2cents). got windows 10 pro key for 4. Cheap trust gaming mouse n keyboard for about 50, cant remember the cpu. i must tot up the cost actually.

Thanks, I had downloaded the google result. Ill grab this later. Does ds4 need to be running then when you launch a game?

GurtTractor

Yeah fire it up before you start a game, it should fine your DS4 if it's connected via bluetooth or USB. Then it should send Xbox controller input to the game.

superflyninja

Cool thanks lads, I forgot, I have a wired 360 pad anyway I can use.
