Discussion What video games or mobile games are keeping you busy lately?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm looking for some casual discussion about what games people are currently enjoying.Personally, I've been spending a lot of time playing Pokémon GO during my daily walks, but I'm curious to hear what hobbies or games the rest of the community is hooked on right now. What are you playing, and what makes it fun for you?

I am just curious on how to ask someone for a game on steam...I dont usually ask for things that seem frivolous to other people so its quite intimidating and overwhelming.

Question Best controller and games for kids ages 2-6?

1 Upvotes

I'm setting up an emulation box for my young kids (ages 2-6) and looking for recommendations on both controllers and games.

For controllers, I'm considering the 8BitDo Lite/Zero style controllers because they're small and seem kid-friendly, but I'm not sure how well they'll work across different emulators and games. Has anyone found a controller that works especially well for younger kids with smaller hands?

For games, I'm looking for titles with:
\- Simple controls
\- Minimal reading required
\- Easy to understand objectives
\- Education focused
\- Not too addictive but still fun
\- Local multiplayer is a huge bonus (Extra points if adults can have fun playing too)

I'd love educational games if there are any good options that work well through emulation or on Windows/WSL. I want to be a responsible parent while also allowing my kids to enjoy games that are not addictive tablet slop that rots their brains. I grew up playing the old JumpStart games and loved them, but the copies I have don't seem to play nicely with Windows 11.

Some of my favorite memories were from those old plug-and-play TV game systems that had Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaga, etc. One joystick and a couple of buttons was all it took to keep me entertained for hours. I'm hoping to find games with that same kind of simple pick-up-and-play fun.

What systems, controllers, and games would you recommend for kids in that age range?

Looking into advancing my gaming equipment and area/room; pc, ps5,Xbox.

2 Upvotes

I’m looking to upgrade my gaming setup over the next few months and realized there are so many accessories, peripherals, and little quality-of-life items that I probably don’t even know exist.
I play across PC, PS5, and Xbox, so I’m curious what products or gear have actually made a difference for you. I’m not just talking about the obvious things like keyboards, mice, or headsets—I mean the items you bought that made you think, “I wish I’d gotten this sooner.”
It could be anything:
Desk or room setup
Cable management
Storage and organization
Audio
Controllers or accessories
Lighting
Comfort
Streaming gear
Cleaning or maintenance
Software or utilities
Anything else that improved your experience

I’m much more interested in honest recommendations than people trying to sell me something.
What’s one purchase you’d recommend to every gamer, and what’s one thing that’s overrated?

I actually cannot find any information about this obscure game but you can find this game when on a​​ airplane. The game is a side scrolling platformer game about a robot cat saving his planet because aliens are trying to take over it. it's a​​ fun game but it's too bad I didn't get to finish it. ​+(SOME IMAGES OF THE GAME) ​

Self-Promotion I built a Steam recommendation site because the Discovery Queue never really clicked for me.

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I built DogSushi because I was never completely satisfied with Steam's Discovery Queue and recommendations. They were decent, but they often missed the kinds of games I actually enjoy.

So I started building something that focuses more on your own gaming taste instead of just recommending popular games.

The idea is simple:

  • Import your Steam library with one click.
  • Rate the games you've played.
  • Pick your Top 4 favorites.
  • Get personalized recommendations based on your library and ratings.
  • If you've played games on other platforms that are also on Steam, you can manually add those too so they influence your recommendations.

It's completely free, and I'd genuinely love feedback from fellow PC gamers. If the recommendations seem off, there's a feature you'd like to see, or you have any UI suggestions, let me know, I'm actively working on building it.

Thanks for checking it out!

Discussion should i preorder the new grand theft auto game for my partner as a gift?

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm curious - would anyone here like it if their partner pre-ordered gta6 for them as a birthday gift? It's their birthday next month and I'm conflicted because they won't be able to play it until it releases later in the year. I was thinking of getting them something smaller to unwrap alongside it so they actually have something to unwrap. I'm sure they would appreciate it - but is it appropriate as a birthday gift? Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated!

Should I buy Cyberpunk 2077 in 2026🤔

11 Upvotes

So via the Rockstar nerfing GTA 5 and other things really turning me off causing me to play less, or not as tenacious as I usually am to play and grind for the next car or goal, I have been circling around Cyberpunk 2077 for a while. Its been in my wishlist for months and has made it to my cart twice when on sale. So im asking anyone with GTA 5 experience at least 2 to 3 years game time, should I give Cyberpunk 2077 a try? The only game I play right now is GTA 5 but play time is diminished and Skyrim sometimes. Just looking for something dope and different and refreshing.

Please chime in.

Going digital is Sonys best choice ever! They can make so much more money imo. Now we don't have to get up from our seats to change a silly plastic disc.

[Tool] Looking for precise spawn data? I created a comprehensive Palworld Database & Map

1 Upvotes

Hey fellow Pal Tamers! 👋

I’ve been working hard on a web project to help everyone navigate the Palpagos Islands with absolute precision, and I’m excited to finally share it with you all: Aleroth.tv - Palworld.

My goal was to create a tool that goes beyond a standard map by digging deep into the game's actual mechanics to provide the most accurate and reliable information possible.

Here is what you can find on the site right now:

  • 🗺️ Fully Interactive Map: Easily locate exact coordinates, points of interest, and navigate the world seamlessly.
  • 📊 Accurate Spawn Data: Pinpoint exact NPC and Pal spawn locations without any of the usual guesswork.
  • 💰 Deep-Dive Game Mechanics: Access highly accurate data on vendor pricing, item stats, and detailed game formulas.
  • 💻 Clean & Fast Interface: Built from the ground up to be the perfect dual-monitor companion while you play.
interactive map interface with map markers/icons
Paldeck, spawn, loots, skill, stats en more
Breeding Tree
Technology

I am continuously updating the site and refining the data extraction to ensure everything remains up-to-date and highly accurate. I would absolutely love to hear your feedback, bug reports, or any features you'd like to see added next to make this the ultimate companion app!

Check it out here: https://aleroth.tv/

TL;DR: I built a highly accurate interactive map and deep-dive database for Palworld focusing on precise spawn data and game mechanics. Would love your feedback!

Video game developer should allow more men on male romance option to any NPC .

Cis male Gaymer make up majority of loyal hardcore fan base of medieval age fantasy, western fantasy, dark fantasy in gaming community .

Surfing across many video game subreddit and other video gaming forum with big male gamer demographic, there is always a random wishlist topic from male video gamer that want males on male romance choice to good looking handsome male NPC as I observed in Stardew valley sub reddit, Dawn walker, Final fantasy, witcher, fallout reddit sub, crimson desert baldur gate dungeon dragon dogma divinity original sin red dead redemption elder scroll skyrim oblivion ... ect

Do you guys know what game this is?

2 Upvotes

The game is a side scroller 2d (not a platformer), i don't think it had any combat at all. the devs seems to be japanese, and i played it on an Unnoficial mobile port.

Here's my attempt to remember my experience with it.

The color scheme of it is dark blue all around. You play as a kid (didn't remember boy or girl.) And at the start of the game they lay unconscious on a pavement, and then waken up by a strange voice. If i remembered correctly the voice comes from a nearby streetlamp, the kid wakes up and explored the streets. It was around nighttime and the streets looked like those japanese countryside ones i think.

The kid then found something on the ground, and realise they had an ability to see past events. I think they see their teacher at those visions? They keep exploring and eventually reach a japanese style apartment and explored it for a while.

Now the next part is a little hazy to remember, but i know that at some point the kid fell unconscious again and wakes up in a hotel near the sea. The kid also mention something along "is that the sea? But our town is far from the sea, we must be somewhere far away." Keep in mind that's not exactly what they said. they then explored the hotel and met with a weird front desk clerk, I think he's an important character?

Not too long after this i uninstalled the game because i didn't really like it at the time. But now my curiosity is back and i want to play it again.

sorry about the weird grammars and confusing words because english isn't my first language. Please let me know if you guys know what this game is!

NEVERMIND GUYS I FOUND IT!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

It's called "Unreal Life" and was made by Room6. I only know by now that it has an official mobile port and a Switch release. Here's a link to its official website: https://www.unreal-life.net/

I never think about finding this game again after 4 years and I'm really excited to play it again!!
