That does look wicked fun, the light gun for fishing...I probably still just prefer fishing with a gun most days :LOL:

I'd love to give that controller a 'whirl' though if I had a good game for it (y)
What's interesting, not only the rotation of the stick was transferred to that handle, instead of some buttons (probably dpad), i am absolutely sure there was a motion sensor, because when the fish started twitching, it was necessary to "pull the reel" in different directions. Because we played and died laughing, this cannot be forgotten. We could control the game completely with a gamepad (hate the dreamcast gamepad with all my heart), but that's not fishing at all.

my radeon cpu/gpu works fine XD, the only problem is with the software of amd adrenalin
Just a joke man, I have no issue with AMD honestly, its a decent cheaper alternative and sometimes it decimates intel particularly in gaming...I have more of a problem with garbage like PowerColor and Western Digital that have a high rating for being low priced trash, Radeon is a really good brand IMO.

I don't like doing builds with AMD processors without a good amount of research though, since sometimes they require BIOS updating before the system will even boot and thats either costly or annoying :LOL: ... not to mention obnoxious and stupid on AMDs part.

I believe some clown (that should be in that picture) was talking about Intel making too many socket types--and thats the exact reason why they do, to avoid shit like that 🤷‍♂️

Sounds like a blast...a better version of Wii controllers...if it wasn't just for fishing (possibly a single game), I'd hunt one down tbh.

On a side note I hate all those bulky controllers, from Gamecube, to Nintendo 64 although N64 was better than most.

I shit you not, my brother just told me this less than 5 mins ago!

He said the update reset his bios. 😱 So his pc bluescreened. This makes no sense. He had to uninstall adrenalin and disable the video card ..and I dont remember the rest. (he waffled on for a long time telling me about it, but yanno.. its Sunday and I dunno why I have brain mush today.)

He happened to come in to my room to see what I was watching. It was a video comparing a gtx1070 to an rx580 coz I cant decide which one I'm gonna buy. He said he's got the 580 and he's having issues with the software now. hrm. I'm prolly one of the only ppl in this forum that likes geforce experience. Im used to it. I dont mind the popups that happen telling me it can do whatever, wheneveter (like if I start a game it's say its ready to capture for example). I have no experience (no pun intended) with amd software either.

Not sure if its even relevant but Im an intel stan. My pc is intel core, his pc is amd. Cant see why his pc is amd based with an amd gpu and he's having issues. But if others are too then yeah it's gotta be the updated software (adrenalin). hrm

Now I'll go finish watching the video comparison anyway 😁

I'll sell you my 1070 cheap just so you don't put an AMD card in a fully intel system :LOL:

Next your gonna end up with a FreeSync monitor because of just the GPU, bad performance anyways because the processor die doesn't unlock the full potential...and then its just a matter of time before your completely drowning in the AMD abyss. Next you'll buy a WD Blue 2TB HDD, and its all downhill from there--even after it gets delivered with a locked boot sector :ROFLMAO:

PowerColor is the next decline...then then, your PC will look like THIS

ADATA 128GB SSD
Segotep 750w PSU
WD Pink 20TB NAS Crash Drive
Ludis Dominum Gaming Mouse
EgoTime 41GB NExistence AMD GPU
Tomsilly 690-B Brickton Mobo /W WiFi MuDDle 8
Jackmehoff 66.6" Freesync NFT-8 122hz Monitor
....
..
.

😱 😱 😱
.....
The end is nigh :ROFLMAO:

Then let me amuse you a little more. I just realised I didnt mention that yes, its a WD 😁
I kind of figured just from you saying that...besides, that particular shot could be felt worldwide, if I didn't have such a bad experience with WD I may own a few myself due to cost. All Toshiba here, Samsung for SSDs

I have literally got one with a locked MBR, a DOA 4TB My Book 😒 (tell me thats not what you own), and all the ones in every Playstation and laptop I owned or was given to me have died.

They were blacklisted long ago.

As for me, the latest adrenaline is stable, several versions were a complete mess at the beginning of this year. If the latter is bad for you, try installing 22.11.2, it was a good version before some idiotic experiments.
i had a problem, when the adrenalin " uninstaled itself", when opening it i needed to install it again XD

that bios update is a thing... bro... nearly got me while building my computer...
Well thats certainly new...do you mean during updating? or it just fucking vanished?
it is like it never existed, it didn't vanish as the shortcut still there and i think the app still " installed"( never thought to take a look) when u open it normally it opens at this page:
but when the bug happened it was like the first time installing it
