pseudopop Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) This year Epic Games is giving out free games again. You have only 24 hours to claim each one, but as far as I know they are not limited in number. The first one is Bloons TD 6 and it was revealed yesterday (sorry I'm late) and so is available only until 4 PM GMT today, or little over 3 hours. The next one is suspected to be Horizon Chase Turbo, but we will soon see. Edited December 16, 2022 by pseudopop 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well according to the Steam description it has "full controller support". Can't imagine the Epic version would be different? I haven't installed it yet, so don't know for sure... I've got my XBOX 360 USB (Games for Windows) controller at the ready just in case! Edited December 17, 2022 by abacab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the PC gaming world using a controller on a game is not macho. Racing games and sports games are boring on PC anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do enjoy playing games on the PC with a Nvidia GPU in my living room, while sitting about 8 feet away from my flat screen TV that is connected via HDMI. A wireless keyboard/mouse is fine on the coffee table for setting things up and launching a game, but it's more relaxing to kick back on the sofa with a game controller, a la game console style. ? For keyboard/mouse gaming I selectively might allow a game or two to run on my DAW PC at my desktop workstation. But the controller works there as well, and sometimes I am just lazy... ?

I'm too lazy to look for a controller. I start to treat free games like plugins. I don't bother with many of them. I don't buy new games anymore because of the requirements like disk space. I'm playing some of the games that came out during the XP/W7 era. I might even install those old Command and Conquer games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you're not. @kitekrazy is just trying to talk himself out of hoarding more stuff, like he has been doing in every plugin and VI thread lately. Am I weird if seeing the photographer in product photos somehow breaks the immersion for me?

Racing games and sports games are boring on PC anyway. Depends on who you ask. Some say the only way to play a racing game is using a racing wheel controller. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's cheap. I was thinking of buying it for my son (with my tendonitis, I can't play video games, Words with Friends -- yep, a nerd game -- is about the best I can; but I do appreciate everyone posting these deals, as I pick them up for my son, who is a gamer with Windows 10 and XBox).

I bought a model fitting this exact description in official Microsoft packaging from Best Buy about 10 years ago for a bit more. It still works, it's corded not wireless and plugs into a Windows PC via USB. Batteries not required! I believe these are out of production at Microsoft. This white unit from Amazon appears to be exactly the same as mine, but quite certain that it's a knockoff. Manufactured by Etpark. The price looks good though and has 4.2 out of 5 stars rating on the Amazon reviews! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
